Vanessa Carlton - Paint It Black Lyrics
[Originally written by the Rolling Stones]
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore, I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I see a line of cars and they are painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens every day
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it's heading into black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black
I wanna see it painted painted, painted black, oh baby
I wanna see it painted painted, painted black, oh baby
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
I wanna see it painted, painted black, oh
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
Painted, painted, painted black oh baby
Painted painted, painted black

BOOo it sucks
❤🖤
This is a big NO... 😬😬😬😬😬😬😬
Sounds disgusting. I like the original version.
in love
Love to see the video, this is good .... very good
nice song
One of my favorite songs in this album. ❤❤❤ I used to "scream" the lyrics. I was all of 10 y/o! This is so nostalgic...
I've adored her music since like, 2005!! This cover is so gorgeous 💜💜

I just discover this version and all I can say is... wow that's sound so good!!! As good as the original.
I didn't she did song like that, the only one I knew was a 1000 miles
Wow I forgot about this song by her
..sugoiii..
ive found it!!!! i have been looking for this song sung by her for years!!!!
This is crap!
Abe Laboriel Jr. is the best drummer in the world.
What type of awful psychedelic mess is this... Where is the raw pain & emotion??? Ciara did a much beeter job.
Beeter??
She is infinitely better looking than the song's original singer.
best release ever :)
I love it! I have to take
Good job but I still like black ops better
No one but the stones should be singing this
she did a better job then the stones imo
+MrDrainBramaged no one does this song better than the stones
anyone can sing or cover whatever the hell they want :3 and they sometimes do a damn good job.
Searowl 99 I agree completely
This is my favorite song off the Be Not Nobody Album. 😊💙
Wonderful. You sing extremely beatiful.

Pretty rare case of a female artist being able to get the anguish of the original. Pretty good!
I hear no anguish at all. Seems so happy and joyful...
I hear a lot more emotion in her rendition than the Stones
Bonjour Vanessa Carlton. Comment allez vous ? moi pas trop bucalement. Je m'apelle Justin.h Baral et j'en est marre de vous les américains si vous me rendez pas l'objet à temps...
Another classic destroyed in you tube. Who is the drummer? He needs to at least try
I will bet Siobhan Magnus's cover is no better.
Ciara slayed the cover of this song 100%
Taz020 lmao Ciara covered a cover 🤣
Taz020 I loved this cover since highschool and thought that is was the best version of the song. Ciara came out with her version for the Witch Hunter movie, in my opinion, Ciara's was the best I've ever heard overruling this cover.
I honestly think Ciara’s is the best I’ve ever heard as far as covers. She made it so beautifully dark.
This is a ok cover, I like Ciara's cover better I love the gothic feel of her cover.
dgoodgirlr33 Me too. Ciara topped this imo
Better than Clara's.
lkgrave Not Even
wao!!Excelent I love it..Peace Love & Drum!!
Makin my way down town walkin fast......
nø name plee keet keet kee kee keet
PAINT IT BLACCCCK!!!!
wow there isnt evern any lyrics this is a lie ;/
They're in the description
I actually didn't hate this version.
But you didn’t really like it either tho 💁🏻
make me high high on lulibuyes
Amazeball's
Love THIS version of Paint it BLACK!!😏😏😏😏😏
Still one of my two favorite covers of this song.
She's alright :P
You are cute. Got a man? :P
Happily Married almost 8 years this December actually :) how have you been?
I'll never understand how she comes up with these lyrics. Fricken genius!
She did not right these lyrics, its a cover. The Rolling Stones wrote the song.
HAHAHHA you dumb. The great Mick Jagger wrote this. You know, someone much more talented ?
Рэй Милици Don't call him dumb. Maybe he is young and he just didn't know that this is a cover. We and probably older than him, that's how we knew.
Brings back tour of duty flashbacks. Only the TV show not the real thing, not born in time for Nam call up.
Perfectly describe the ISIS invasion in Iraq. The Islamic State uses Black Flag standard, a demonic declaration of faith. #Paint_IT_Black.
No, your shit U.S government is the shit that paint the middle east in black. Go read fairy tales if you think those ISIS demons appeared from nowhere and none actually gave them moneys and good weapons.
Islam means submission to satan not god. Mecca is the harlot of babylon. when you kissed the black stone you are kissing satan's clitoris...
@Isaiah 53 that escalated quickly :). but yes.. nuklear or viral weaponry should be used on ISIS. they are breeding forth the next generation of soldiers as we speak with their captured girls. disgusting.
Yup nuke mecca and turkey and ISIS will scatter like flies. But first UNITED STATES of AMRIKA should deport OBAMA and his ilk to mecca first.
sin palabras espectacular saludos desde argentina
Love Vanessa Carlton (and this cover!)
this is one of those songs that is arguably good in most peoples voices, because the strenght of the lyrics is there :). Vanessa makes a divine cover :)
I love this Version!!
I love Vanessa Carlton
to this day, my favorite song of hers :)
That's not very funny
She wants to paint it black then hit it and then burn it. she is a racist :D
sry bro ) eng isn't my native language - *she
umm dude?? Vanessa's a chick...
because he can ) and it was good job!
why did vanessa sing this song?
Because she can.
i'm always shocked by that. like some of my videos have tons of views and no comments. like really? not one person had any feedback? i usually like to comment on videos when i watch them.
WTF, out of 7,237 people that watched this video, only 48 people decided to 'lil' this, 2 people 'disliked' this, and only SEVEN people commented on this?
agreed....... and how!
Wasn't sure I was going to like it as this is in my top 5 Stones songs, But guess what I was very very pleasantly surprised not only do I like it, I LOVE IT
@jareds1007 It's called Be Not Nobody
whats the name of this album again?
i miss this vanessa
