Loved Doom & Gloom but thought this was just average, filler material. The song worked better live but it's hardly a song I'd reach out to play if I had all the Stones' album in front of me.

Agreed, Silver Dagger. This is substandard, and it's kind of sad that (besides Doom and Gloom) this is all they could come up with after a 7-year hiatus. The main problem is that it seems so haphazard and unfinished. There is the germ of a great song here, but it was not realized. Instead, we get an awkward, half-baked melody with "na na na" and "I love I love I love" inserted in lieu of real lyrics. Still, those X-Pensive Wino backing vox are cool.

You can picture the scenario - the band have been on hold for 5 years. But Jagger quickly does his accounting and realises the boys need some new product to play live and raise interest in yet another hits album.
Jagger uses one of the songs he's saved for his next solo album but catches Keith on the hop who has to come up with something pretty quick. And One More Shot is the result. Maybe.....

Nothing wrong with B side songs, the Stones have many great ones. Wasn't Ruby Tuesday the B side to Let's Spend the Night Together?

Your right latebloomer but I was not quoting to the Stones B-Sides but in general B-Side are fillers

I know NICOS, hence the cool smiley.
But I have often wondered, what exactly do people mean by fillers? It seems to be just an easy word to use for a song that isn't up to single status, or maybe for a song that fits into the category of you don't hate, but also don't love it either.
Anyone want to define it for me?
