The Rolling Stones forthcoming new album, Hackney Diamonds
“I'm still taking the pills and I'm off to Brazil.” The veterans’ first new music since 2005, starts up their instantly recognisable Richards guitar with Jagger vocals, and capturing a lovers’ argument, was released today in east London to herald the forthcoming album, Hackney Diamonds, out on 20 October. It is also their first release since the death of drummer Charlie Watts in 2021. Aside from 2005’s A Bigger Bang, the 2016’ Blue & Lonesome was an LP of blues covers. The new album’s title refers to their diamond (60th) anniversary, and was announced today at the Hackney Empire theatre in east London, heavily hinted with cryptic ad in a local newspaper, The Hackney Gazette, appearing to be a local window repair shop.
Don't get angry with me
I never caused you no pain
I won't be angry with you
But I can't see straight (Yeah)
It hasn't rained in a month, the river's run dry
We haven't made love and I wanna know why
Why you angry with me?
Why you angry?
Please just forget about me
Cancel out my name
Please never write to me
I love you just the same
I hear a melody ringing in my brain
Just keep the memories
Don't have to be ashamed
Don't get angry with me
I'm in a dеsperate state
I'm not angry with you
Don't you spit in my facе
The wolf's at the door with the teeth and the claws
My mouth's getting sore, I can't take anymore
Ah, why you angry with me?
Why you angry?
Voices keep echoing
Calling out my name
Hear the rain keep beating
On my window pane
I hear a melody ringing in my brain
You can keep the memories
Don't have to be ashamed
Don't get angry with me
(Angry, angry)
Yeah, yeah (Angry, don't be angry with me)
If we go separate ways
(Angry) Yeah, don't be angry with me
Let's go out in a blaze
(Angry, don't be angry with me) Yeah
Don't you spit in my face
(Angry) Oh
Don't be angry with me
Don't get, don't get
(Angry, don't be angry with me)
I'm still taking the pills and I'm off to Brazil
(Angry, don't be angry with me)
Please, don't be angry with me (Angry, don't be angry with me)
Come on
Don't, don't, don't, not (Angry, don't be angry with me)
Not, not, not, not, not, not, not
