Tell Me :
Talk
It's an old London phrase (possibly in use more widely in Britain, but I'm a Londoner so that's where I've always heard it) which both Pete and Roger would have heard frequently as they grew up. It's meaning is similar to 'look after yourself' or 'take care' on saying goodbye to someone. I'm making the presumption that you're not British, Drake - it's an immediately recognisable phrase to most people here of a certain age.

Be Lucky. Sounds more original and vital. One Shot is ok. But lost its appeal after a few listens. Sounds like a Talk is Cheap outtake.

They're both first rate. The "new" bonus tracks both bands add to their greatest hits albums make it regrettable they don't just make whole new albums. Just like I like Don't Stop, etc. on 40 LICKS, I like Real Good Lookin' Boy and Old Red Wine on the Who's THEN AND NOW. A waste of time and talent that it takes years to get two new songs.

I am not a huge fan of One More Shot but it sounds a heck of a lot better than Be Lucky! What does that even mean? How can you command someone to "be lucky"?

I would go for Be Lucky again... Doom and Gloom is ok, but seems far more like another Mick Solo song with nothing important to say.

Not a bad effort from the Who, but I'm going with Doom and Gloom.

Definitely Doom and Gloom.
No Stones bias here...I just don't really dig the Who tune.

All the three songs are good. I liked Be Lucky. Good to hear Roger on good form again 
EDIT: Wait! Did I hear autotune in there? LOL! They're just joking with the effect
