The Rolling Stones Reissue 'Wild Horses' In Wake Of Susan Boyle Cover

November 23, 2009
The Rolling Stones Reissue 'Wild Horses' In Wake Of Susan Boyle CoverThe Rolling Stones have reissued their 1971 song 'Wild Horses' in the wake of Susan Boyle covering it on The X Factor last night.

The remastered song is be available as a bundle via iTunes from today which also features a live studio version of the track and a live rendition at Knebworth.

Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, Wild Horses was recorded in Muscle Shoals, Alabama over three days in December 1969 and was the last of 3 songs completed at those sessions, after 'Brown Sugar' and 'You Gotta Move'.

As well as Boyle's version - which appears on her debut album 'I Dreamed A Dream' - acts including Neil Young, Guns N' Roses, Sheryl Crow and Mazzy Star have all covered the track.
