It's just that demon life has got you in its sway

Ain't flinging tears out on the dusty ground
For all my friends out on the burial ground
Can't stand the feeling getting so brought down

It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
It's just that demon life has got me
It's just that demon life has got me

| Mick Taylor had a total personality change after leaving the Rolling Stones to live at Wolf Creek. | |

| Oh god, I love this one, even if keith's contribution was limited to backing vocals. Mick Taylor really brought something to the Stones, something way different that the usual. He was just a brilliant guitarist. But I can't help thinking that the Stones would have broken up if Taylor had stayed, so it was best that he left. But we've got this, Moonlight Mile and a few others to remember him by. As to the meaning, I think everyone has been to a real low point, but not all of us recognize life's simple pleasures in time to pull us out of depression. The song starts with Mick's oh-so-jaded, "One, two, three, four", but winds up with a beautiful ending. What a great example to get through life. I can't help thinking (with a laugh) that this deeply romantic song would have been brilliant used as a theme for David Boreanaz' character on "Buffy, the Vampire Slayer" or on its spin off "Angel". A missed opportunity if you ask me. "Demon life" indeed! | |
