What's your favorite Stones recording of another artist's song? I would nominate Let It Rock live B-side but there are so many good ones, including unreleased Drift Away.

"She Said Yeah"

That's how strong my love is!!!! hands down

"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

Like A Rolling Stone, the Mocambo version of Around and Around and Carol from Ya Yas.

Going to a Go-Go. This song is on a CD-R in my car and always brightens my morning, and puts a spring in my step!

This song is my favorite .Whaouh ,I would have loved to be at the Roseland Ballroom ,Jagger 's performance on that one is awesome .
It seemed he really "got out from his body " that night .It gives me gooseflesh evrytime I watch it just to look at his vocal cords tighten as hose's truck .


I like "Bye Bye Johnny " too.



I am a Frenchie ,as Mick affectionately called them in the Old Grey Whistle Test in 1977 .

twenty flight rock and going to a go go


John Nicholls

Just one? Ehhhh, they do some pretty good covers. There are some that stink too though.

I like...the live ones anyway, the two on Ya-Ya's as well as Time Is On My Side from Still Life.

Another vote for "Let it Rock".

-Let it rock is in my top 5
but i also like their version of" Down the road apiece" from Philadelphia December 26th, 1981

-The whole first LP><

-Somethin' else by Keith RICHARDS and his x-pensive winos

-Like a rolling stone

Ohh, so many. The Stones have this incredible gift to capture the spirit of those songs even better then the original artists did. It made them famous in the first place and this is what the "real" Stones were about (before the commercial interrests came into the picture and thus the own songwriting started). And they have remained an outstanding band in the fiels of covering (Just My Imagination for example), i would dare to say that they are the best coverband in the world and they could fill a whole set with the best covers ever, and everyone would have a the night of their life. The cover Stones is the Stones i got to know first and fell in love with, my old time favorite as a boy was this one (i would just play it over and over again)

It's All Over Now

My all-time favorite show from the Vegas era. They brought something special that night.

You Can't Catch Me.

Ain't Too Proud to beg is my favorite.

Little Red Rooster and Mona a close second.

There are so many this is a tough one to choose.

Just My Imagination just came to my mind I think that one is actually my favorite should have been a single great song!!!

So many. Let it Rock, Mercy Mercy, Thats How Strong My Love Is, Imagination....
