From their 1967 album, "Their Satanic Majesties Request", this is one of their prettiest and most uncharacteristic song Mick and Keith wrote. Brian Jones on the melletron piano playing an ascending run with a turn about with a reoccurring motif, the beautiful strings and Nicky Hopkins on the piano, the lyrics and vocals all outstanding. One of my favourite Stones songs. Great reaction Harri. Thanks Harri and JKClark.👏👏 Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
Bravo Mary! You are always such a pleasant ray of sunshine here on the internet! I am proud to call you a fellow Canadian. Er, I mean, sorry about that, eh?
They wrote many more such songs though. In mid to late 60s. Aftermath, Between Buttons and other singles during that period have many catchy pop pretty songs, some with hint of psychodelia. That’s when Stones discovered their own engishness, eccentricity and got way from heavy influence of R’n’B. Ruby Tuesday, Lady Jane, Connection, Tell me - all have that pretty melodic character.
We were at the only Canadian concert that the Stones held during their 2019 tour - they gave the audience 3 songs to choose from - and were surprised that the vote (by far) was this one! It was a magical song to perform at a magical concert. We Canucks have good taste, I think! :)
@@ohfour-seven6228 'SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL' WAS NOT A PRETTY SONG BUT PROBABLY THER ROLLING SDTONES MOST POWERFUL RECORDING! PS, I'M NOT SHOUTING! I HIT THE CAP LOCK BY MISTAKE!1
The whole album "their majesties..." is fantastic. I like "citadel" and "2000 light years from home" as well as "she`s a rainbow". I think you should introduce more of this album. Thanks for sharing and all the best @all from HH (germany)
Lady Jane is another soft Baroque style of song from the Aftermath Album. To a lesser degree, Ruby Tuesday. This is from "Satanic Majesty's Request" Album
Nicky Hopkins may have been one of the greatest piano session musicians in rock history. He played with the Stones during their prime years. But he also played with the Beatles, Kinks, the Who, and countless other greats. Along with She's a Rainbow, my favorite Nicky Hopkins song is John Lennon's Jealous Guy. Another exquisite piano song.
Magical, ethereal and it perfectly epitomizes the diversity of the greatest rock and roll band ever, Brian Jones influence is very noticeable on this wonderful song, it never fails to make me feel joyous and it sounds to me, like a classical piece at times
This song reminds me of the Beatles, Harri, I recommend a reaction to the band "Earth and Fire", this is a Dutch rock band that mainly played progressive rock, songs from me such as: "Ruby Is the One", "Storm And Thunder", "Wild and Exciting" , "Love Quiver", "Vivid Shady Land", "Invitation", "Memories", "21st Century Show", "Weekend".
Thank you, Harri mate, for another genuinely joyful reaction. Spot on commentary, too. We all love to see you happily surprised. Stay beautiful in your heart and soul, man!
This song was apparently a response and ode to the song "She Comes in Colours" by the band "Love" (featuring Arthur Lee). Well worth checking their stuff out, An amazing band.
Believe it or not, the Stones album you are talking about is called 'Their Satanic Majesties Request'. It was their psychedelic album. And it was, indeed, an answer to Sgt. Peppers. Try the track '2000 Light Years From Home'.
Apparently if not for various drug busts both albums would have been released around the same time so it became hard to finish and delayed around 6 months.
The whole concept of this song is so lovely. She’s Like a Rainbow. What’s more beautiful than a rainbow? And that music box quality. This has always been one of my favorites.
It's a lovely song, and it's off the Rolling Stones album that nobody seems to like! Yes, it was sort of a response to Sgt. Pepper, and the whole album is a little uneven, but it's worth a listen. I recommend "2000 Light Years From Home" and "In Another Land" as good psychedelic pieces.
I think the reason you haven't had many requests for this is because there are so many big songs from back then. This one got pushed back with many others. I think I requested in the comment section, '2000 lightyears from home', but should have done this one, too.
This was their response to Sgt Pepper, but it did not resonate. I loved it. Their Psychedelic record. They went back to their roots afterwards, but this was better than they thought.
from their one album psychedelic period which indeed was the Stones' answer to Sgt. Pepper-their most psychedlic track from the album is 2,000 Light Years From Home is also worth a listen-which actually was the flip side of the single-She's A Rainbow.
Piano would have been Ian Stewart. This early Stones Harri. Psychedelic 60's Stones. I think was released in 67. When Brian Jones was still with the group. RIP. It's always one of my favorites. Really makes you want to move doesn't it. You right Harri, it is a pretty song. 😂❤🇨🇦
Also my favorite Rolling Stones song. I like how you describe it as a “pretty song” because that’s exactly what it is. Loved your honest uncensored reaction too!
I heard they did this album "Their Satanic Majesty's Request" as a response to the The Beatles "Sargent Pepper" album, as you guessed Harri. Thanks for the reaction.
This song sounds different for them as does this whole album, it was their stab at psychedelia and their retort to Sgt Pepper. As others have suggested, try 2,000 Light Years from home, also from it. Yeah, they did all kinds of great rock, you just have not heard it yet, their catalog is titanic. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎸🎷🎶
Here are some more pretty Rolling Stones songs: No Expectations, Moonlight Mile, Dandelion, I Am Waiting, Winter, Heaven, Sway, Let It Loose. But by "pretty" I think you also mean lighthearted? I'd go with Dandelion. It's light and airy like She's A Rainbow. For something light and trippy, 2000 Light Years From Home! Just in case nobody has suggested it. Don't be surprised when you love it.😉
This came out at a time when there were numerous monster hits, and didn’t really get a lot of radio play time. I honestly didn’t remember it, and discovered it when I was in my 40s. Now I play it at the Bar, all the time, and people ask who is that? , lol..definitely at the top of my Rolling Stones list.
Mick Jagger - lead vocal, harmony vocal, tambourine Keith Richards - acoustic guitar, lead guitar Brian Jones - Mellotron Bill Wyman - bass Charlie Watts - drums Unidentified musicians (played by the Rolling Stones) - backing vocals, percussion[note 1] Additional personnel Nicky Hopkins - piano, harpsichord John Paul Jones - string arrangement Unidentified session musicians - string section
I'm not a big fan of the Stones but this is my favourite along with "Waiting On A Friend" .Probably because they are the opposite of their other songs.
Thank you JK Clark. It's been a minute. The instrumentation is outstanding. Great reaction. Harri, I haven't seen anyone else react to this, so kudos to you. Thanks.
I’m not a fan of The Rolling Stones, but I have to say, this is a great song. The piano in this song is one of the most beautiful pieces I’ve ever heard
This album was received badly because it was psychedelic, and everyone was acting like they were trespassing on the Beatles' turf. It's a great album with a bunch of amazing songs. I listened to the whole album recently with my two brothers.
It’s not hard to believe or surprising at all the beautiful sound of this track from the Stones. They have some wonderful ballads Angie, Ruby Tuesday, As Tears Go By, Lady Jane, Backstreet Girl (gorgeous sound with not so sweet lyrics I admit), Wild Horses, Fool To Cry, Moonlight Mile, Memory Motel etc
If you liked this, you'll love 'Far Away Eyes' - another atypical Stones tune! Oh, and also 'Angie'. No idea whether either of those two girls combed their hair.
Nicky Hopkins on piano and harpsichord. He was a true master of his craft.
Nicky nails it - as always!
I’m a huge Hopkins fan! Jamming with Edward, forever!
Peace
absolutamente de acuerdo. por fin alguien que sabe de lo que habla!!!!!!

I worn-out this album. Had to buy a replacement with the simple jacket cover. I only had two other Stones albums, "Flowers" & "Let It Bleed."
Bravo Mary! You are always such a pleasant ray of sunshine here on the internet! I am proud to call you a fellow Canadian. Er, I mean, sorry about that, eh?
@keymack2477 No, I'm sorry, eh? Lol 😆 Thanks, love Harri's channel and the great memories the members bring back to mind. 👍✌️🎶🇨🇦🤗

What a great show it was a nightmare getting out there after but it was worth it for 7th time seeing them.
Fun Fact: John Paul Jones (yes, from Led Zeppelin before there was a Led Zeppelin) actually did the amazing string arrangements in this song.

I was just listening to this album last week. Love it. And 2,000 Light Years From Home still sounds fresh today! Great great album.
Just suggested 2000 LYFH also. Pretty and trippy!
Lady Jane is another soft Baroque style of song from the Aftermath Album. To a lesser degree, Ruby Tuesday. This is from "Satanic Majesty's Request" Album
Nicky Hopkins may have been one of the greatest piano session musicians in rock history. He played with the Stones during their prime years.

siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, gracias por reconocer a Nicky, soy su fanático absoluto
I agree, this is a very beautiful song by The Stones. Another I'd suggest is Lady Jane. It's quite beautiful too.
The Stones wrote many beautiful songs in the 60s that you might like, e.g. 'As Tears Go by' and 'Lady Jane'. Great reaction as always mate.
Moonlight mile too!
This was the Stones answer to Sgt Pepper's try thousand light years from home off the same album
Magical, ethereal and it perfectly epitomizes the diversity of the greatest rock and roll band ever, Brian Jones influence is very noticeable on this wonderful song, it never fails to make me feel joyous and it sounds to me, like a classical piece at times
They have their moments like this. For others try As Tears Go By, Ruby Tuesday or Lady Jane.

Great song
So, so, so underrated. This song is brilliant, on so many levels.
2000 Light Years Away From Home…another ethereal, trippy favorite of mine.
Nicky on Piano, The Session Man. Nicky at Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!!!!
Thank you, Harri mate, for another genuinely joyful reaction. Spot on commentary, too. We all love to see you happily surprised. Stay beautiful in your heart and soul, man!
🖤🙏🏿🙏🏿✌🏾
Memory Motel is a pretty song where Mick and Keith share vocals.
This song was apparently a response and ode to the song "She Comes in Colours" by the band "Love" (featuring Arthur Lee). Well worth checking their stuff out, An amazing band.
I love both those songs, and big fan of Love and the Rolling Stones!
I agree, so different for them, but it’s a GREAT song!!!!!!!!!😀it was fun watching you enjoy it!!!

Like a beautiful giant music box
The whole concept of this song is so lovely. She’s Like a Rainbow. What’s more beautiful than a rainbow? And that music box quality. This has always been one of my favorites.
We forget the many colors if the Rolling Stones. I have a suggestion, Angie. It's a beautiful song.
Did that last week
Love you saying the Stones being "pretty" and it is such an on point correct statement
Ruby Tuesday is even more lovely, again with a strong Brian Jones influence.
Brian Jones on the Mellotron really adds a lot of colour to this song - it's the horn sounds in the right channel
IMO, the two most beautiful Rolling Stones songs are "Let It Loose" and "Shine A Light" which I would recommend anyone to listen to those songs
It's a lovely song, and it's off the Rolling Stones album that nobody seems to like! Yes, it was sort of a response to Sgt. Pepper, and the whole album is a little uneven, but it's worth a listen. I recommend "2000 Light Years From Home" and "In Another Land" as good psychedelic pieces.
And Sgt. Pepper was a response to The Beach Boys "Pet Sounds".
In 1967 this was their Sgt. Peppers. I love them both. Jim
This song always reminds me of my late Mama.
I don't think songs of today will be remembered as much as the variety of wonderful songs from this phenomenal period.
I have always loved this song. Everything about it is lovely and I thank JK Clark for the request. The video is fantastic. Great reaction, Harri 🌺✌️
You are sooo welcome, Deb!
I actually knew Nicky , he was a friend of mine . He was classically trained. He was such a lovely and funny guy .
One of my favorite Stones songs the albums. It was their answer to the Beatles Sargent Peppers Lonely Hearts Band.
Nicky Hopkins on the Piano. This album was surely a response (even if subconscious) To Sgt Pepper
This song, has the great Brian Jones DNA, all the way through it. RIP Brian.
Yes.
I think the reason you haven't had many requests for this is because there are so many big songs from back then. This one got pushed back with many others. I think I requested in the comment section, '2000 lightyears from home', but should have done this one, too.
The Stones are masters of everything from hard rock to pop and everything in between. Simply the greatest band we shall ever know.
Always my favorite stones song??
A very beautiful song
"Waitin On a Friend" is my favorite slower song from them.😊
Whoever made this video is a pure genius. Outstanding! Keep up the good work
Should definitely try, "we love you" by them. Psychedelic heaven
This album has some great stuff on it. For sure
What's funny is that the Beatles were on this Album. They All Loved to Trip the Fans. Listen to the Back up vocals. 🎶🌄
This was their response to Sgt Pepper, but it did not resonate. I loved it.
Their Psychedelic record. They went back to their roots afterwards, but this was better than they thought.
I thought as much
2000 light years from home, from the same lp.
One of my top 5 Rolling Stones songs. So wonderfully odd. Kind of part Sgt. Pepper, part Syd Barrett.
Ruby Tuesday is another pretty Rolling Stones song, as is Angie.
I love it, always been one of my favorites and has remained so because I never hear it unless I put it on myself. You have great taste Harri!
They have so many beautiful songs. Wild Horses, Dandelion, 2000 light years from home, Mother's Little helper, As Years go by.
I know this song from the beautiful Ted Lasso serie 👌 The epic scene with this song is awesome 🤗 TX for the react 🖐️
My favorite Stones song.
from their one album psychedelic period which indeed was the Stones' answer to Sgt. Pepper-their most psychedlic track from the album is 2,000 Light Years From Home is also worth a listen-which actually was the flip side of the single-She's A Rainbow.
It's so cool, all the different instruments, the stones would use. 😎
Piano would have been Ian Stewart. This early Stones Harri. Psychedelic 60's Stones. I think was released in 67. When Brian Jones was still with the group. RIP. It's always one of my favorites. Really makes you want to move doesn't it. You right Harri, it is a pretty song. 😂❤🇨🇦
But what about "Ruby Tuesday", Harri? That's just as beautiful, or more so.
Love this song….outstanding!!!! Feel like I’m back cruising through my hometown with the top down!!!!
Also my favorite Rolling Stones song. I like how you describe it as a “pretty song” because that’s exactly what it is. Loved your honest uncensored reaction too!
Great song. Not bad for a fan made video.
She’s A Rainbow is my favorite Stones song and the album it came from is my favorite Stones album.
I heard they did this album "Their Satanic Majesty's Request" as a response to the The Beatles "Sargent Pepper" album, as you guessed Harri.
Thanks for the reaction.
You share can pick em Harry ! I just recently discovered this gem via a commercial.
It was requested for.😁✌🏾
One of my favorites ❤
The female voices used were girlfriends of the band. hahaha they sound great and are a real addition to this song. Maybe the best part ?
This was out around the time the Beatles put out "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds".
Not surpised at that 😁
Dandelion is similar! Such a good one.
They did do pretty in their earlier records.Lady Jane,Ruby Tuesday,As Tears Go By are just a few.
This song sounds different for them as does this whole album, it was their stab at psychedelia and their retort to Sgt Pepper. As others have suggested, try 2,000 Light Years from home, also from it. Yeah, they did all kinds of great rock, you just have not heard it yet, their catalog is titanic. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎸🎷🎶
One of my favorites by them. 😊 Suggested it ages ago.
Yes!!!!👍🏻😃
Hard to see all the requests ✌🏾🙏🏿🙏🏿
This really was a song from the Flower Power time. I think "Dandelion" also was a great song of them. I grew up with this fantastic music.
They did psychedelic so well, I wish they had done more than just the Satanic album
Angie is my favorite
Here are some more pretty Rolling Stones songs: No Expectations, Moonlight Mile, Dandelion, I Am Waiting, Winter, Heaven, Sway, Let It Loose. But by "pretty" I think you also mean lighthearted?

Don't be surprised when you love it.😉
Just saw everybody's suggesting it. But haven't seen Dandelion!!!
Strings arranged by Led Zeps John Paul Jones. oh yes!
This falls into the category of baroque pop. There are several '60s bands that specialized in it.
I think this a response to the Beatles Magical mystery tour album.
Coming colors everywhere🌈
This came out at a time when there were numerous monster hits, and didn’t really get a lot of radio play time. I honestly didn’t remember it, and discovered it when I was in my 40s.

I'm glad you like the song. Is one of my favorite songs.
If I had to guess I would say that is Chuck Leavell on Piano
Mick Jagger - lead vocal, harmony vocal, tambourine
Keith Richards - acoustic guitar, lead guitar
Brian Jones - Mellotron
Bill Wyman - bass
Charlie Watts - drums
Unidentified musicians (played by the Rolling Stones) - backing vocals, percussion[note 1]
Additional personnel
Nicky Hopkins - piano, harpsichord
John Paul Jones - string arrangement
Unidentified session musicians - string section
I'm not a big fan of the Stones but this is my favourite along with "Waiting On A Friend" .Probably because they are the opposite of their other songs.
Nicky's riff piano in Simpathy for de Devil is a masterpiece of the rock history!!!
Released November 1967
Thank you JK Clark. It's been a minute. The instrumentation is outstanding. Great reaction. Harri, I haven't seen anyone else react to this, so kudos to you. Thanks.
Yes, thx to JK!👍🏻
Try "as tears go by" and"wild horses"

“Angry”
You should review it.
Incredible video too

Dandelion
@@coryhoerner7715 Yep, another Gem
One of their greatest LPs!
Nicky Hopkins is the pianist on this song.
You need to hear Dandelion or Lady Jane if you enjoyed this.
Yes it's great!
If you liked this, you'll love 'Far Away Eyes' - another atypical Stones tune! Oh, and also 'Angie'. No idea whether either of those two girls combed their hair.
So trippy and great
I always thought this was the stones doing a Beatles type of song.
