Yesterday's Papers seems to be pretty popular around here, that's one I just don't get at all. Also, Memo From Turner, most of Black and Blue, and, unfortunately, most everything after Undercover. The only two post Undercover songs that I can think of that I like are Terrifying, and The Worst. And Terrifying isn't aging terribly well.

They just haven't done much in the last 25 years that I really care for.

And I know this is heresy as a Stones fan, but quite a bit of Exile I can take or leave too. Outside of Rocks Off, Shake Your Hips, Rip This Joint, Tumbling Dice, Sweet Virginia, Happy, and All Down The Line, it just doesn't do a lot for me. I still think it's a great album though, and don't buy into the whole they should have done a single LP argument. I have no problem skipping over the stuff I don't like.

I've never been a big fan of Shattered.

Under the Radar.
Sad Sad Sad, Rock & a Hard Place...
Out of control.

(P.S.: bit depressing topic, to be honest; having to think about Stonessongs me dislike... Bit early in the morning for that to me, no doubt.)

Although the mentioning of Memory Motel hurts....

Related to threads topic I pick You Got Me Rocking.
Being forced down the throat regularly live I simply donĀ“t like the song anyway.

Geez,VoodooLounge, why can't you stand Midnight Rambler -if you don't mind to tell?
Even not the studio version ? Or the terific live versions ?

I do not think there is a lot of love for You Got Me Rocking in here. Very cliched, paint by the numbers. I also felt like they were going for another concert anthem like Start Me Up and failed big time.

I cannot say "i can't stand", but "Angie " is a song i don't like so much and usually many people like, especially not the die-hard fans

I just think it's horrible. I can't stand the subject matter, and have always felt that it was perhaps the most overrated song in their cannon. In recent years I've at least come to stomach the live versions.........which is a change from being thoroughly peeved that they're playing this thing again and thereby making it a waste of my ticket money. LOL

Not sure I know that one StonesTod - course there are many of his songs I don't know by name, but I don't think that it's on his essential set. I'll have to check now.

nope it's not, so I don't know that one. But I do understand the shock...course I'm also in the minority here of not believing EOMS is the Stones best album, and truly believe (GASP) that Voodoo Lounge is a far superior record..........go figure.

Beast of Burden, Shattered...just sort of boring. They were initially good, but unlike truly excellent Stones music, just doesn't hold up.

....and these songs in concert, IMHO, are cringeworthy.

I'd almost prefer hearing YGMR in concert...and that isn't saying alot!

visions? uh...well, it's pretty widely regarded as perhaps his best song. hmmm...think i could interest you in some desolation row?

I love the Rolling Stones, they are one of my most favorite music bands of all-time, but I could never stand the following:

You can't always get what you want (so annoying, as much so as Hey Jude is)
Beast of Burden
Brown Sugar
Tumbling Dice
Midnight Rambler
Under my Thumb (the only good thing is the music, but that's not enough)
Out of time (see previous)
Tell me you're coming back (too Beatles like)
Something happened to me yesterday (see previous)
19th Nervous Breakdown
We Love You
Dandelion
You can't catch me

There are probably more, but these are the top ones.

yeah, they may not be a top-selling "music band" anymore, but their merch still goes for nice prices at collector's fairs... Yeeha!
