Does "Moon Is Up" count as a ballad? That's some great harmonica there.

Imagine a Stones version of "Say You Will". That could have been great but the song is now "burnt" because it's on a solo album.

Moonlight Mile is one of their greatest songs. Paul Buckmaster did a terrific job, a great string arrangement.

Let's not be too positive about things. To look at the negative side..... My Girl, ANyway You Look at It, Each and Everyday of The Year and Streets Of Love must be their 4 worst ones

Coming Down Again does it for me nearly every week, but then Goats Head is my favourite album.

I thought I would have ranked it higher than # 14, because it's a great song - but then again the Stones have written so many beautiful songs...

Beast of Burden, simple, but effective and magic chord progression, I like it most of all Stones songs at all.
