Here. We tried to cover this for an album of Stones covers but we couldn't pull it off. A b-side. A great song. Written for Marianne Faithfull I believe.
Music video by The Rolling Stones performing Child Of The Moon (Color).
Director: Michael Lindsay-Hogg
Cinematographer: Anthony B Richmond
Filmed in 1968, this surrealist promotional film features all five original band members and Emmy Award-winning actress Dame Eileen June Atkins. Shot on a farm near Enfield, outside north London, the eerie music video for “Child of the Moon” is an early example of the narrative approach, when the format was in its infancy, over a decade before the advent of MTV. The wind blows, rain into my face
The sun glows at the end of the highway
Child of the moon, rub your rainy eyes
Oh, child of the moon
Give me a wide-awake crescent-shaped smile
