Welcome to the Stonesnews POLL section!

Let’s start with a clean, future-orientated question:

Should the Stones play Brown Sugar again on the next (Europe) tour?

As you might well know, the band decided not to play Brown Sugar on the last tours. The reason behind this a little puzzling decision most probably was because of it’s controversial lyrics:

Gold Coast slave ship bound for cotton fields – Sold in the market down in New Orleans
Scarred old slaver know he’s doin’ alright – Hear him whip the women, just around midnight
Brown sugar, how come you taste so good? – Brown sugar, just like a young girl should, oh, whoo
Drums beatin’ cold, English blood runs hot – Lady of the house wonderin’ when it’s gonna stop
House boy knows that he’s doin’ alright – You should have heard him, just around midnight
Brown sugar, how come you taste so good? – Brown sugar, just like a young girl should, yeah
Ah get on, brown sugar – How come you taste so good, baby?
Ah got to get on, brown sugar –  Just like a black girl should, yeah
Now, I bet your mama was a tent show queen – And all her boyfriends were sweet 16
I’m no school boy, but I know what I like – You should have heard me, just around midnight
Brown sugar, how come you taste so good, baby? – Oh, no, no, brown sugar, just like a young girl should, yeah
I said, yeah, yeah, yeah, whoo! – How come you, how come you taste so good?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, whoo! – Just like a, just like a black girl should
Yeah, yeah, yeah, whoo! …
