1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    ... three minutes into the song when Mary Clayton sings "rape, murder" the loudest, and her voice almost cracks, and in the background you can just barely (but clearly) make out someone (Keith?) shouting "woo!"?

    Yeah.

    Miscellaneous trivia from Wikipedia:
    Merry Clayton reportedly suffered a miscarriage after recording the song; the intensity of her performance is alleged to have caused it.
    At 3:04 into the song Clayton's voice cracks on the word "murder" from the strain of her powerful singing. A second afterward an unknown voice, most likely Jagger's, is faintly heard shouting "Woo!" in approval.

    This thread made me go and listen to the song again. I had never noticed it before, but now I do.

    Great song, BTW.
