Tattoo You is the sixteenth studio album (eighteenth American album) by The Rolling Stones, released in 1981. Curiously for such a successful and popular record – it's seen by many critics and fans alike as their last classic album – it was something of a happy accident. The Stones had been planning a large-scale American tour for the summer of 1981, to be followed by a European leg the following year; Tattoo You was assembled largely from discarded songs and old outtakes so that the band would have a product for the tour to promote.It is most famous for the classic hit "Start Me Up" (which has its roots as a reggae song called "Never Stop", written during the Some Girls sessions). It is also their last studio album to reach #1 on the US charts.

Protest Song: "Hang Fire", which address the unemployment in England under Margaret Thatcher. Interestingly enough the song wasn't released on single in England.

Isn't It Ironic?
 Tattoo You (Music) / int_bf8a2be2
comment
Isn't It Ironic?: "Start Me Up" was famously used by Microsoft for the Windows 95 launch. The lyrics include the well-known refrain "You make a grown man cry." Anyone who used Windows 95 would find that line very apt... A popular urban legend states that Mick Jagger ran into Bill Gates at a party, quoted him an enormously inflated price as a joke... and Gates wrote him a check on the spot. "Start Me Up" is now being used by Toyota. One has to wonder if "Start me up / I'll never stop" is really the right kind of lyrics for a car company that had a problem with their cars accelerating and not stopping because of a pedal defect. The line "I can't compete..." also seemed appropriate as Microsoft got accusations of monopolization.

Shout-Out

Shout-Out: The Manhattan apartment house seen in the music video for "Waiting on a Friend" is the same one shown on the cover of Led Zeppelin's Physical Graffiti. In the video we also see reggae musician Peter Tosh in a cameo. The Simpsons: In "How I Spent My Strummer Vacation" Homer enlists in a rock summer camp lead by various famous rock stars. The intro to "Start Me Up" is played by Keith Richards when he and Mick Jagger first make their appearance.

Album Filler

Album Filler: Technically this entire album could be seen as filler, as a lot of the tracks were out-takes and leftovers from older recordings. But artistically and commercially the record was a smash success, often seen as the Stones' last classic album.
