‘Miss You’ – The Rolling Stones
Jagger composed the song “Miss You” when the Stones were working with Billy Preston in Toronto, preparing for their notorious performances at the El Mocambo Club. The Stones were playing with Preston on the piano and keyboards when Jagger penned the song. Despite the fact that they had never met before, the band’s first Tune One hit in five years resulted from a fortuitous meeting with a harmonica player at the Paris metro station. With a bluesy feel to it, the song was a fun dance tune to get your feet moving. When questioned about the song, Mick Jagger responded with the statement, “It’s not about a woman.” The song is about the sensation of having a strong desire for something.
