"I Go Wild" is a song by English rock band the Rolling Stones from their 1994 studio album, Voodoo Lounge. Credited to Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, "I Go Wild" is largely a Jagger composition.[1] "I Go Wild" was released as the fourth and final single from Voodoo Lounge. Following its UK release on 3 July 1995, it reached number 29 on the UK Singles Chart.
A music video for the song was shot at Ex-templo de San Lázaro in Mexico City immediately before the Stones' 14-stadium tour of South America. The song was performed throughout the 1994–1995 Voodoo Lounge Tour;[1] a live version from 1994 appeared on the maxi-single, and a 1995 live performance was released in 2016 on Totally Stripped.
Background and composition
On its creation, Jagger said in 1994, "'I Go Wild', I suppose, is the one I play (guitar) on most. I mean, I just created it on guitar with Charlie [Watts], as a groove. And we more or less had the whole song down before we took it to anyone else."[1] On the song overall, Jagger said, " I like that song. I really got into the lyrics on that one. One of the wordy ones."
A straightforward rock song, "I Go Wild"'s lyrics tell of the singer's relationship with an unnamed "femme fatale";

And the doctor says you'll be okay, And if you'd only stay away; From femme fatales and dirty bitches, And daylight drabs and nighttime witches, And working girls and blue stockings, And dance hall babes and body poppers,
And waitresses with broken noses, Checkout girls striking poses,
And politicians' garish wives, With alcoholic cunts like knives

I go wild when you're in my face; I go wild when I taste your taste;
I go wild and I go insane; I get sick - somebody stop this pain
