what's your favorite rolling stones' song?

[MrBrau1]

I'm amazed how many are "Hits." If your a Stones fan and only own "40 Licks" or some other collection, you're missing EVERYTHING.

 

[HeadsOnSticks]

hmmmm....

shine a light
brown sugar
wild horses
spider and the fly
19th nervous breakdown

 

[senrab]

As Tears Go By
Satisfaction
Wild Horses
Beast of Burden

 

[Angela Harlem]

Indeed.

Interesting to see how many of the choices are a reflection of u2's range of Stones covers. Well not interesting, just shall we say... regular.

If you're really honest, do you think U2 do such great covers though? U2 pick their covers wisely, but they're well...

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

Helter Skelter = bad idea
Unchained Melody = no
Everlasting Love = OK
Paint It Black = decent

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

I can't pick just one!

Hmm, I'll try Top 5:

1. Wild Horses
2. Gimme Shelter
3. Can You Hear Me Knocking
4. Sister Morphine
5. Memory Motel

OK, I want another 5 now.

Agreed, but that could be said for most bands.

Reading through everyone else's lists I'm like, "Oh that rocks, and so does that, and that, and that," but I think I'll stick with my two and give honorable mention to anything Keith Richards sings.

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

OK, I'm back.

- As Tears Go By
- Miss You
- Spider and the Fly
- Ruby Tuesday


And Happy definitely has to be in there. Like dsmith said, Keith rules.

 

[Danospano]

1) Harlem Shuffle

2) Emotional Rescue

3) Undercover of the Night



Kidding...just kidding!

Best ever...

1) Jumpin' Jack Flash

2) Brown Sugar

3) Miss You

 

[Jack In The Box]

Wild Horses and Miss You

also Street Fight Man, Jumpin' Jack Flash, Brown Sugar, Paint It Black, Angie, Symphaty For The Devil, Gimme Shelter, It's Only Rock and Roll, Losing My Touch, etc!

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

1) Harlem Shuffle

2) Emotional Rescue

3) Undercover of the Night

Dear god, Dano, I was going to have to come check your temperature!!!!

 

[U2ME3]

Tumbling Dice

 

[fah]

I can't pick one:
Let It Bleed
Wild Horses
Tumbling Dice

 

[CrashedCarDriver]

their singles in the 60s ROCK the house down

You Cant Always get What You Want
Honky Tonk Women
Sympathy for the Devil
Wild Horses

their stuff from Angie onwards is a tad bit overrated

oh and the stones is one of the easiest bands to sing to

 

[Strato Edge]

Start Me Up

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

I'm sorry, but "Angie" sucks.

I have to add "Let It Bleed". I can't believe I didn't already, seeing as how that was the first Stones album I got my little hands on.

 

[u2popmofo]

Paint It Black

 

[verte76]

"Gimme Shelter". I *love* that song.

 

[tiny dancer]

Beast of Burden!
