Tonight,  I listened to Wild Horses - The Rolling Stones 1995 on YouTube (www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhVLiHPUOIM) while following the lyrics. 

So I was surprised to see Mick changing two words.  The lyrics read:

Let's do some living after we die

but Mick sang:

Let's do some living after love dies

As a teenage and in college along with so many others I tried to apply lyrics to my life or seek guidance in words cobbled together to rhyme.  It was something which seemed so vital when I was so much younger.  And now it's just something to note.

It made me think of a story about Carl Perkins and one of the Beatles, (George Harrison?).  The Carl Perkins version of "Blue Suede Shoes" differs from Elvis Presley's by a single beat.  In practice for the "Blue Suede Shoes: A Rockabilly Session" with a slew of British rock luminaries the Beatle was upset that Carl Perkins who wrote the song was playing it with Elvis's extra beat.  

The spin was that the Beatle was playing with one of his heroes and his hero wasn't playing the song correctly.
