"Don't Stop" is a single by rock band the Rolling Stones featured on their 2002 compilation album Forty Licks.
Before the release of Forty Licks, I wrote "Don't Stop" in the same period that I was writing the songs for my solo album, and I just put it to one side and said to myself, 'This sounds very much like the Rolling Stones to me.
'"[2] A straightforward rocker featuring a trademark opening riff from Richards, "Don't Stop" tells of a rough love affair between the singer and his lover: The way you bit my lip and you drew first blood It warmed my cold, cold heart And you wrote your name right on my back Boy, your nails were sharp
Well I'm losing you, I know your heart is miles away There's a whisper there where once there was a storm And all that's left is that image that I've filed away And some memories have tattered as they've torn Recording began on "Don't Stop" in the early summer of 2002 at Guillaume Tell Studios, in Suresnes, France.
Charlie Watts plays drums, Darryl Jones bass, and Chuck Leavell on keyboards.
