Sir Mick Jagger has spoken about axing Brown Sugar from Rolling Stones gigs, with him saying that the band could not cause shockwaves for ever.
The decision to stop performing the song - released in 1971 - came after years of controversy over the lyrics, which include the depiction of non-consensual sex with a slave.
Discussing its absence from their forthcoming tour, Sir Mick, 78, said times change and that the Grammy Award winning band - which was formed in 1962 - have had to adapt.
