Mick saying "One Last Shot" is a song that Keith wrote mostly. I wrote some extra lyrics for it. It's really good" is hilarious, maybe because it reminds him of Street Fighting Man from Live Licks?
It´s not the opening chords that are important in OMS, LOL!
It´s obvious that the AC/DC-break, used for the chorus is what Keith came up with. The I-IV-riffing is just a vehicle for the verses, like on hundreds of other Stones-tunes.
It´s really too simple, and not much of a song, but it grows on me - dunno why
It's funny how clean Keith's guitar sounds on this tune.
I finally got the Mixed Emotions reference. It's hilairious how this song has so many other songs in it. Although no one has complained about Sad Sad Sad being Brown Sugar in reverse...

However, I think there is a lot of unused musical potential and the song unfortunately reduces itself to a repetitive riff based jam. It's not a song, it's an great idea that could have developed into a song.
Sorry, I don't agree concerning "unused musical potential". In fact, the song sounds incredibly constructed - I hear Street Fighting Man, Take It So Hard, Mixed Emotions, Rough Justice and the drum break from You Got Me Rocking - in a way that I ask myself what's the essence of One More Shot as a song on it's own at all? What is there that could be developed further? Adding another wellknown riff in there like the start of Brown Sugar?
One More Shot simply does not stand on it's own feet, it's a patchwork job.
However, it's possible that this was fully intentional, like saying: "Hey, no matter how many more shots we'll give you in future, they will all sound the same because the well is dry!"
A tranny nanny - friday night, let's get the show on. A couple of beers or more and the show is on....Quote

Erik, no, I think Stones fans won't let Mick do anything else but the Stones.
He needs them if he's gonna move on, but Stones fans absolutely refuse to let him.
So he's punishing them now, I think, like they're punishing him.
Look what Mick said about Stones fans: they're "drunk and insane" so he's gonna
crash the fcukin plane.
I raised this question in a thread of its own, which got zero agreement: Was
Mick intentionally crashing the Stones?
After all this crap, these tickets, this album, is there still 100% disagreement
that Mick wants out?
And what did he say he wanted to call this tour? No doubt he is punishing us! You have been right all along.
Mick has no loyalties to anyone. I feel sorry for LWren. Just a matter of time.
He ain't leavin' L'Wren. That's ridiculous, too. They're perfectly happy in how they figured out how to live together freely but committed.
Ha. They don't come any better than Gerry Hall.
Has Jerry become a tranny now?

Wouldn't that mean that you made the initial suggestion with only a quarter mind? Now I'm getting confused.

You're right. Streets Of Love isn't so bad - it's 100% bad.
