Springsteen's Magic was very good. Looking back from ABB to, pick a Stones disc, their is a potential classic work in there somewhere if we could pick and choose selected cuts. They can still surprise us it they want to.

The thing is you can still emotionally connect with Springsteen's new tracks such as The Last Carnival, Long way home,The Last to die,My city of Ruins etc.These are all songs performed in a very heartfelt matter, tackling some serious subjects that people can easily relate to.There are some great musical ideas among the stones' most recent output but for the most of the time the songs are just too bland emotionally and lyrically and just plain fall flat despite an odd great guitar lick or Mick's excellent vocal performance.Take Biggest Mistake, it's a catchy little tune, an ear candy that people can easliy enjoy if ,lets say,it suddenly comes up while driving or doing housework or whatever, but it's unable to elicit any true emotional response from the listener.

And yet he still fails to be better overall. The Stones concerts are unbeatable.

I thought Laugh I Nearly Died was very good and She Saw me Coming was fun, but beyond that, I am not so sure. They can do better, and did, with the ten new/old Exile tracks.

The Stones could never top Born to Run or Darkness on the edge of town tours
