worried about you
this is my all time fav,ilove everything about this song from the start to finish
i can listen to this over and over again and never get tired of it

One Hit has to be right up there,for me anyway.

1) Happy
2) Memory Motel
3) Indian Girl

"She's got a mind of her own, yeah, and she use it mighty fine..."

without a doubt Brown Sugar is something like taking off in a big jet, it slowly starts to roll and it picks up speed and near the end it is like you are blasting off into space, this is my favourite stones song of all time, my favourite piece of sound ever, better than chuck berry even as far as rock and roll is concerned! good night ladies and gentlemen!


I bet yer mama was a tent show queen!

we have to pick one? =)

-Drake

Love in Vain on Ya-Ya's. I know that's kind of a weird choice but it is my top favorite Stones song followed by Loving Cup, Midnight Rambler,Gimme Shelter, and Sympathy for the Devil. But it's really hard to choose just a few songs as favorites.

about 85% of the Stones catalog (maybe more) is one big, collective favorite song for me

With me it is more than 85%. Once a song becomes a Stones song, it enters another dimension. That is the way it is, and has always been. So among each other they are all equally favorite.

Fave song now that's a tuff call...but if
I was to be banished to a leper colony I
guess it would have to be .................ROCKS OFF

And I'd smuggle a copy in of Jumpin' Jack...Gimme Shelter



ROCKMAN

That's wild Rockman: if pressed that is the one I would also say. Moonlight Mile is another one.

Thats strictly unthunckable

i want to stick to my mp3 stick

let it bleed

makes me so happy...

Oooooh man.

My first favorite song was Monkey Man, back when I was about 11.

Then it became Rocks Off when I was about 16.

For a brief period in the fall of '89, it was Can't Be Seen. That phase didn't last long, fortunately.

The Virgin remasters exposed me to the full power of Can't You Hear Me Knockin'.

Since then, it's been mainly live stuff as done in '72-'73.

But if I had to choose one . . .

Rocks Off

Actually there's no shame in that: CBS is an excellent song.

Tops, Winter , Rocks off, 100years Ago,Live with Me,Heart of Stone to name a very few!!!!!

Here are my top 10 favorites, in order at this moment.



Gimme Shelter - studio

Midnight Rambler - studio or any live version

Satisfaction - studio

Sympathy For The Devil - studio

CYHMK - studio

Happy - studio

Hand Of Fate - studio

Get Off My Cloud - studio

Play With Fire - studio

Paint It Black - studio


* bonus extra track*

Dance Little Sister - studio





Worried About You is indeed great, but doesn't make my top 10 unless the choices are limited to 1980 - to the present. Worried About You is the last great studio Stones song in my opinion. From the slow build-up to the ultimate groove with Charlie kicking in on the drums. It stll sounds great today when played live, even when Ronnie takes over. The L.A. Forum '06 show was the best version I've seen and heard aside from the studio version, better than any 40 Licks club/theater versions.

I celebrate their ENTIRE catalague. But Beast of Burden has always been a special one to me. It wasnt the first song, but one of the first songs of theirs I got into and theres just something about it that makes it my favorite. but theres so many great ones.

...wow, how about pickin' a favorite sunset? is anyone gonna mention 'bitch' for a mover, they play it early ta loosen the fingers....

Indian Girl was one of the winners when we did the 'worst song' thread. Interesting choice, but I would say it's one of their worst.

AHHH...ROCKS OFF is pullin' hard....
