BEST
Angie
Wild Horses

This House is empty
Waiting on a friend
No Expectations
Shine a Light
Love in Vain

WORSE
SOL(to me one of the worst songs ever written)
Biggest Mistake
Fool to Cry
Anybody seen my baby( very close to sol)
Laugh l nearly died
With SOL l hear that they are playing it nonstop at the Guantanamo prison to extract confessions from the muslims detainees.
As a form of torture

The only thing that LIND has "convinced me of" is that I need to skip it when listening to ABB.

LIND is the best Stones song since 20 years!


Belgrade-Bucharest-Budapest-Brno

you guys are so into hating SOL and any rolling stones song that doesnt fit into their basic sound. Anybody and SOL are awesome. Just because they are different doesnt mean they are bad. I love Anybody and so do most of my friends. It's dark, mysterious and has an awesome vibe, something a lot of stones songs don't have. It also has a more modern sound. If that song were released today it would still sound new. Quit bitching and just enjoy the music instead of whining about songs you happen to dislike. I really don't like Harlem Shuffle but I'm not going to spend hours on here bitching about it.

Do you really consider Shine a Light a ballad? With Taylor's great quitar work and the up tempo beat I think of it of more of a blusie rocker.

Yeah, it has a litle bit of blues,gospel,and Rock, but l do consider it a ballad,but your point is well taken


"No dope smoking no beer sold after 12 o'clock"

In my opinion, Wild Horses is the best. Melody, lyrics, performance -- perfect. Haunting and utterly timeless -- and the words ring true. Let's compare:

Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands
Wild horses couldn't drag me away


You're awful bright, you're awful smart
I must admit you broke my heart
The awful truth is really sad
I must admit I was awful bad
I-yi-yi-yi, I-yi-yi walk the streets of love and they're full of tears


By the way, Moonlight Mile, also from Sticky Fingers, is almost as good. MAN, what an amazing album.

Hey drbryant, Thanks for the comparison it really shows what a great song Wild Horses is as compare to the shit that sol is.
