Do "Gimme Shelter," i would advise this one because you can watch any Scorsese movie and it would fit the scene immaculately (He uses this song in almost all of his films.) ...AND its just a great song. Some movies with this song are, The Departed, Casino, and.....i think GoodFellas

"Paint It, Black", recorded in 1966 is one of my favorite songs and one of the most popular by The Rolling Stones! The use of the sitar is so unique and gave it a sort of ethnic rock and roll fusion that created a very cryptic tone. It ranked #174 on Rolling Stone magazine's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time as of 2004.
This song is about a guy's depression after losing his woman/girlfriend and he wants the world to be painted "black", to emulate his disparity and guilt. There are many color symbols in the song, this could be some sort of love song too. It's up to you to decide when you analyze.
But why restrict your choices to only The Rolling Stones? There's plenty of other artists from the 60s, many of the popular artists being from the British Invasion; artists such as The Beatles, The Animals, The Yardbirds, Led Zeppelin (late 60s, not so much "British Invasion" time), The Who, The Kinks, Herman's Hermits, Donovan, The Dave Clark Five, Bob Dylan, Crosby Stills & Nash, Sonny and Cher, Simon and Garfunkel, Sly & the Family Stone, etc. There's so many!
