Singing people seems to think they can do 'Beast of Burden' very well, so that's the one they may slaughter also...

To me, the only song that any of them have enough talent to do is "Stoned".

You got the Sun, You got the Moon,
and you've got

Wow I might actually watch just to see what they ruin. I think Adam Lambert ruined Satisfaction last year.

One of the ladies must do " As Tears Go By" the way Marianne did it; maybe one of the guys will try " Worried About You" to show off his falsetto...that could be a DISASTER though. They'll no doubt have to stick to greatest hits Stones tunes so as not to lose the viewing audience. What A Shame! I'm betting someone does " Wild Horses", hopefully not the Susan Boyle version and " Let It Bleed", a countrified version. It should be very interesting, to say the least. I'd love to hear " You Got The Silver", with a steel peddle behind him. ( or her).

This will be a natural for one of the female contestants (Cristie Bowersox I think?). Relatively authentic (for that show at least) blues/rock chick. I am real curious as to which song she will choose.

I bet they will fight over who does Wild Horses, particularly since it is a hit again. Interesting theme!

That would be the BEST pick for Casey!! He did a Keith Urban tune so it makes sense! Great pick, STONES TOD! He could also do " You Got The Silver"..

yes - but i think Dead Flowers has more of an air of familiarity about it. casey is in no danger of getting booted at this point, but still song identifiability is important in the voting....

the day that one of them do this should be the day they decide to pack it in.

Seriously.

I don't think all the stones will come on the show...They may just send Mick Taylor....Can't bring Ronnie because he may want to date one of the idols...??
Only joking..Sorry...

Although I don't think our Boys will appear in person on the show, I can see one of them deliver a message via SKYPE. This show has had a pretty impressive list of Mentors in the past including Slash, Rod Stewart, Paul McCartney,even old crooner Tony Bennett, Mariah Carey, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Kiss actually played with Adam Lambert. This show seemingly has a budget with no limits and so it must matter how many people watch the show...you know, some people will do ANYTHING for great ratings.

Shattered LOL!

They will all so slow rockers and ballads which is great would love to see something
original come out.

Keeping me interested in my wife's show anyway.

Do they know what they would be getting with "Let it Bleed" e.g.
To see some 16 year old kid with Bambi-in-the-headlights eyes singing "She said my breasts they will always be open.." "that faded junkie nurse.."
And you just know someone is going top pick "Dead Flowers" and sing about sitting in a basement with a needle and a spoon. How does that work? will they have to change the lyrics? Or edit it out?
