The story behind the song

This song emerged from a collaborative effort between Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, following a period of tension between them. Richards initially brought most of the music and lyrics to the sessions, with Jagger filling in the rest in the studio. It's an upfront rocker, with Jagger, Richards, and Ronnie Wood all contributing on guitar. At its heart, it plays like a reconciliation, a coming together of creative forces after estrangement.
