The members of the Rolling Stones
have a longstanding penchant for marrying models, so it’s no wonder the
guys are inspired to write such great love songs. ‘Wild Horses’ is a
prime example of a track that shows the Stones’ more sensitive side —
especially this live-in-the-studio acoustic rendition that shows just
how good the band really are when you take away all of the flash of
their arena shows.
The video might not be specifically romantic, but it conveys more
pure emotion than a thousand videos of chicks writhing on the hoods of
cars. Of course, if you woke up next to some of the women Mick Jagger has, you wouldn’t want wild horses to drag you away, either.
