This is probably the first Rolling Stones song I ever heard (I think it was around 1963). I eventually learned to play it on guitar and sing along. One of my favorites.
"As Tears Go By" was one of the early compositions by Jagger and Richards; previously the Rolling Stones had chiefly been performing American blues and R&B tunes. By one account, Rolling Stones manager Andrew Loog Oldham locked Jagger and Richards in a kitchen in order to force them to write a song together, even suggesting what type of song he wanted: "I want a song with brick walls all around it, high windows and no sex." The result initially was named "As Time Goes By", the title of the song Dooley Wilson sings in the film Casablanca. It was Oldham who replaced "Time" with "Tears".
"We thought, what a terrible piece of tripe. We came out and played it to Andrew [Oldham], and he said "It's a hit." We actually sold this stuff, and it actually made money. Mick and I were thinking, this is money for old rope!" – (Keith Richards)
According to Jagger biographer Philip Norman, the song was mainly created by Jagger, in co-operation with session guitarist Big Jim Sullivan, although Jagger claims he was responsible for the lyrics while Richards wrote the melody. Oldham subsequently gave the ballad (a format that the Stones were not yet known for) to Faithfull, then 17, for her to record as a B-side. Oldham played a demo for her with Jagger singing and Big Jim Sullivan on acoustic guitar. "He handed me a scrawled lyric sheet and I went back into the studio and did it. As soon as I heard the cor anglais playing the opening bars I knew it was going to work. After a couple of takes it was done. Andrew came and gave me a big hug. 'Congratulations darling. You've got yourself a number six,' he said."

Very nice song but Marianne Faithfull is 2 classes better.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Good song.
Genial Mick Jagger y the R S, un movido Mick en "She so cold" y otro dulce Mick en esta linda canción. Íconos por siempre.
The early sixties music I remember fondly both riding with my grandfather and my sisters at home.
Oh, by the way, don't you agree with the critics that Mick cannot really sing ???…..sure ??? It really just depends how much effort Mick wants to exert it seems to me….
Just three verses to this song, yet powerful.
Beautiful song, perfect music and very wise, sad words
Sehr schön ❤️ ❤️
Simply WONDERFUL!!! ..You're great Fluffy!''…❤

i love it!
C'est une magnifique chanson ! Je suis pas spécialement un grand fan des Stones mais j'avoue que ce titre est top! 👍
Lorsqu'on entend cette musique, on est obligé de s'envoler dans nos pensées les plus tristes et les plus dur… mort d'un proche, histoire difficile etc…
I find it hard to listen to the Stones since all the creepy illegal stuff Wyman revealed in his autobiography.
