You mean like picking nubile pop tarts to do duets with?
Nah, they already have its close cousin IORR in the set as the token Berry-style rocker so it's redundant.

They had too in the US or else they had to put a warning on the front of the cover.

Do you mean Love You Live? About keeping something clean? I can´t recall at the moment...
Seeing that it's a vocal overdub still nothing was censored, at least on all the editions of LOVE YOU LIVE that I've had over the years. The original US release of GOATS HEAD SOUP had some goofy mix.
Me too. Twice, on the way to work. It sounded so good the first time, I had to play it again. Love it !
And what did Mick say about Angelina and Billy Bob?
Rock and roll,
Mops
That's the last time it was released on anything. Album wise that is. Are you talking about the studio version? UMe reissued the original US version on GHS for some reason, as I recall anyway.
They've come a long way from pissing where they want to being so... politically correct. I guess Mick started thinking that way during the Voodoo tour, if you read that Rolling Stone interview and his thoughts about Brown Sugar.
I remember something like "Billy Bob got mad with me for giving head to Angeline".
For sure that's the reason they skipped this one

Are the Stones ashamed of "Star Star"?

I mean, probably is their best rock'n roll song ever, in the Chuck Berry sense of rock 'n roll, the pure essence of that.
It used to sound so good and provocative, agressive, ironic and distintive of The Rolling Stones.
But they have been ignored this song, excepting some rare moments, from the last twenty years.
Today, in 2013, as the old men they are now, I don't expect them to sing the John Wayne line, neither the Steve Macqueen one, but this song was so great ... Remember when they sang it in 2003, and Jagger talked about Angelina and Billy Bob?
Taylor doing the rythmn part of the song would be killer nowadays.
What do you think?

Or maybe the Stones, 650$ ticket, Bill Clinton as buddy of Keef, more a company than a rock a band, father, grandfather and children in the arena and all of that, can't say anymore, as main idea of a song, the word "@#$%&"?

They may be ashamed of it, but I doubt it: I know that Emmylou Harris no longer sings Two More Bottles of Wine, as she feels too old for the sentiments within the song, so maybe the Stones feel too old for Star Star.

Top 5 best Stones songs ever in my book! Had the pleasure to hear it live once back in 98 at the BTB tour.

If I remember correctly, few years back they "censured" themselves by altering the lyrics of "starstar" on a live record. So maybe Mick doesn't want to be sexually provocative at his old age.

I saw them in 1997 and this was the webchoice voted song(cough).
The DC show I believe.
Maybe someone else can recall this?

no just aged away from the subject matter

It's like Kiss' shows. They see little kids there getting the experience of the band live with their dads and granddads and understand this is more a family affair. They have plenty of provocative lyrics on Brown Sugar but make it work because if a kid heard them, he'd be thinking about the brown sugar he used on his oatmeal with cinnamon.
I'm glad they are not 70 years old and still shouting obscenities on stage.

Not sure what they'd be "ashamed" about.
If anything it should be for such stellar songs as Rock And A Hard Place, Streets Of Love, Might As Well Get Juiced, Always Suffering and Following The River...

That's the last time it was released on anything. Album wise that is. Are you talking about the studio version? UMe reissued the original US version on GHS for some reason, as I recall anyway.

They censored themselves about what black girls enjoy doing all night at the Shine A Light shows. Shameful. The censoring, not the lyrics.

Yes, you are right. That was a reissue of the original, not a live show; my bad.

I think you are correct on this... The song is one of my favorites. Respectable is right there with it. Just awesome rocknroll. Even as a 'conservative' I really love the song. However, the environment has changed. Little kids going with their grandparents changes the target demographic in a very big way.
