"Paint It, Black" is a song recorded by The Rolling Stones in 1966, written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, though Brian Jones contributed to the song's signature riff. The song reached number one in both the U.S. and the UK charts in 1966. It was released as a single and included on the U.S. version of the album Aftermath. In 2004 it was ranked #174 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The song title is often given as "Paint It Black", this variant having appeared on some reissues and compilations. Richards has said that the song was not intended to have a comma in its title, and that this was added by the record label.
