It marked the third time a song on one of the band's albums also served as the album's title. Like "Under My Thumb", "Brown Sugar", and "Star Star", the lyrics to "Some Girls" created controversy because of the way it depicted women. The line "black girls just want to get fucked all night" enraged civil rights activists. In its review of the album, Rolling Stone writer Paul Nelson called it "...a sexist and racist horror..." but added "...it's also terrifically funny and strangely desperate in a manner that gets under your skin and makes you care."[1] Civil right leader Jesse Jackson met with Ahmet Ertegun, chair of the board of Atlantic Records (the record's distributor). The record company refused to edit the song for future releases and the band issued a statement saying the lyrics actually mocked stereotypical feelings towards women.[2][3] When the Stones performed the song in Martin Scorsese's movie Shine a Light, however, the line was not included.[4] {{unreferenced|section|date=July 2018}}The song was played at every concert of the Stones' 1999 North American No Security Tour which concentrated on lesser-known songs from the band's catalogue. During the tour, singer Mick Jagger changed the controversial lines, switching "white girls" and "black girls": "Black girls can be pretty funny, and sometimes they drive me mad; some of you white girls just want to get fucked all night but I just don't have that much jam." Musically, the song is demonstrative of the unconventional uses of steel guitars heard throughout the Some Girls album, including a droning, phased two-chord groove. The original cut of the song ran some 23 minutes and featured verses Jagger came up with as they went along. Harmonica player Sugar Blue provides some virtuosic blues-style solos on the track. A performance during the band's 2006 leg of the A Bigger Bang Tour was captured for the 2008 concert film Shine a Light and the accompanying live album. External links
