Some of the best classic rock songs are downright painful to hear at times. For example, Marianne Faithfull’s “As Tears Go By” is especially difficult to listen to now. Faithfull had positive things to say about the song, even if she seemed a little lukewarm about the famous rockers who wrote it.

The actress and Swinging London "It" girl of the 1960s was the subject of Rolling Stones songs including “Wild Horses” and “Sister Morphine.”
