For the The Academy Is... song, see Neighbors (song)"Neighbours" is a song by The Rolling Stones featured on their 1981 album Tattoo You.

Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, "Neighbours" is notable as being one of two songs from Tattoo You which isn't an outtake from earlier recording sessions. Jagger was inspired by Richards' own run-ins with his neighbors after the guitarist was evicted from his New York City apartment after complaints that he was playing music too loudly. On the story, Richards said at the time of release, "...Patti [Hansen] (Richards' wife) and I (have been evicted from apartments in New York). Mick wrote the lyrics to that - and he never has trouble with neighbors... I have a knack of finding a whole building of very cool people, you know, but there'll be one uncool couple... 'Neighbors' is the first song I think Mick's ever really written for me. It's one I wish I'd written, that."|}

Recording took place between the months of October and November, 1980, and April through June, 1981, at Paris' Pathé Marconi Studios and Atlantic Studios in New York City. With Jagger on lead vocals, electric guitars are performed by Richards and Ron Wood, with Wood taking the solo. Charlie Watts and Bill Wyman perform drums and bass, respectively. Sonny Rollins also contributes another saxophone, one of three for the album. Ian Stewart performs the song's pianos.

An elaborate music video was produced in support of the song, which featured the Stones in an apartment building setting and was a take-off on the Alfred Hitchcock film Rear Window.

"Neighbours" was performed by the Stones throughout their tours in support of Tattoo You. It re-emerged for performances on their 2002-2003 Licks Tour, with one performance being captured and released on the 2004 album Live Licks.

Just a quick (note QUICK) mock of the new 25th anniversary Neighbours opening titles with the Janine Maunder theme song used instead. I used the end credits theme song as they go for longer than the opening theme song did. And yes it does kind of jump at one point, I am aware of that but I had to trim it down somehow. And ignore the watermark too! That is all :P.
