May 1966: The Rolling Stones release their single, Paint it Black This is written from the viewpoint of a person who is depressed; he wants everything to turn black to match his mood. There was no specific inspiration for the lyrics. When asked at the time why he wrote a song about death, Mick Jagger replied: I dont know. Its been done before. Its not an original thought by any means. It all depends on how you do it. https://youtube/watch?v=u6d8eKvegLI
