can anyone explain to me these ´unboxing´ videos on YT? Seriously, I just don´t get it.
I guess it´s sometimes fun to video your kids opening their Christmas pressies, so it´s the same thing, but with adults?

Thanks for the hint. Thats what 7digital told me too.I tried several times to download all three CDS at once and failed several times.although I downloaded it via differnet Internet Providers and used different (un)zip software tools. I finally downloaded every song separately and I succeeded ;-)
So all I can say is the music on CD 2 and 3 is spectacular and fine sounding and so is worth the money, which is only EURO 32,00.
But please buy the FLAC-Version for full sound enjoyment and not the ridiculous compressed and thin sounding mp3 files from e.g. Amazon.

Nah, that's just scratch vocals. It's part of the process when songs come together in jams. You hear it a lot in outtakes, by various artists.
Mick throws out the "can't you see I'm the only one" line in both the CYHMK and BItch outtakes that was in the Highway Child outtake as well.
Seems to be his go-to filler at that point in time.
The idea is to get a feel for the melody and just say whatever to get the phrasing worked on, then you can go back and write actual lyrics.
Jiving Sister Fanny is kind of like that too.

Didn't Jagger just say Keith was added on guitar in his recent discussion of the track. Keith has definitely said he wasn't on it. Of course, it's also been said that the song was based in part on Keith's "Japanese Thing" doodle and now Mkck is saying the Japanese and/or Indian guitar thing was his.

From the Robert Greenfield 1971 Rolling Stones Interview with Keith:
Do you and Mick still write now the way you used to then?
Well, I haven't seen him for a couple weeks because he went and got married, but basically yes. We do bits that we hear and then we throw them all together on a cassette or something, and listen to it. Mick writes more melodies now than he used to.
The first things, usually I wrote the melody and Mick wrote the words. It's not gotten like the Lennon-McCartney thing got where they wrote completely by themselves. Every song we've got have pieces of each other in it. The only thing in Sticky Fingers I don't have anything to do with is "Moonlight Mile," 'cause I wasn't there when they did it. It was great to hear that because I was very out of it by the end of the album and it was like listening, really listening. It was really nice. We were all surprised at the way that album fell together. Sticky Fingers – it pulled itself together.
Do you sing for the first time alone on that album?
Please. My voice first appeared solo on the first verse of "Salt of the Earth." We did the chorus together, me and Mick. If I write a song, I usually write it all but it's difficult. Somebody's always got their finger in there. I thought I wasn't on "Moonlight Mile" but the last riff everybody gets into playing is a riff I'd been playing on earlier tapes before I dropped out. "Wild Horses," we wrote the chorus in the John of the Muscle Shoals recording studio 'cause it didn't finish off right.

I would have much preferred to see Jagger/Taylor in the songwriting credits on this one.
