This is a very special way to make a tribute to the Stones, instead of a cover it’s the Stones story in a song by a Band in Spain.

It was only Rock & Roll (METEORITOS)

I got on my morning train
to go to the art school,
I happened to hit the carriage that Mick had just gotten into
& I hadn't seen him in years.
"What you got there, man?"

I thought I was the only guy in England
that even knew anything about this stuff;
Chuck Berry & Muddy Waters
they were there.
He had our future under his arm.

So in that wagon the Stones were born.
Mick & I signed a deal, you know.
the devil joined and gave us his blessing.
It was only Rock & Roll.
It was only Rock & Roll.
And that's how the Stones hooked.

When i first heard to Muddy Waters
I'd just hallucinated.
It was the most powerfull music I've ever heard
And I listened to Beethoven and Mozart

When we were tuning things happened;
It sounds what will never sound again.
No one wants the best of the record to be left out.
Our sacred mission is to convert the world to blues.

I left my home at 17 in a cloud of disgrace
without getting my dad's okay
and so the road became a second home to me
That night I called my mum
"I'm in Ney York City
I'll tell you more later...bye".

So in that wagon the Stones were born...
