you know what's odd about you, LJ-wise, either you comment with three-word nothings, or you comment with an epic diatribe of neo-feminist ideals(which are quite attactive, i may add) that makes a person think too much, to a point of oblivion. but i guess such is the mind that you carry(the a-type personality quasi-lazy mind). ;) :) :|
it's a great song. totally puts me in a loungy kind of mood where i just want to sit back and read a book or stare into the sky and think about women. :D
- this song isn't about a specific woman. sost women in Stones' songs are composites of many.
- a "beast of burden" is an animal that labors for the benefit of man, like an ox or a pack mule.
- this song could be allegorical - it was written by Keith as a kind of homage to Mick for having to carry the band while Keith was strung out on heroin: "all your sickness I can suck it up, throw it all at me, I can shrug it off."
