The Rolling Stones

In July 2014, The Rolling Stones performed "Wild Horses" at the Roskilde Festival, a notable event in their extensive career. At this stage, they were celebrating over five decades as a band, performing as part of their 14 On Fire tour, which highlighted their enduring popularity and relevance in rock music. Before this performance, the band released the album "A Bigger Bang" in 2005, marking their first studio album in eight years and showcasing new material to a fresh generation while maintaining their classic sound. The performance of "Wild Horses" at Roskilde is significant, as the song originates from their 1971 album "Sticky Fingers," which is often regarded as one of their best works. This juxtaposition of a classic song within a contemporary performance illustrates the band's ability to connect their rich history with modern audiences, reaffirming their status as icons in the music industry.
