If they included all of their #1 singles, the setlists would look a bit different. Is it true that they haven't had a #1 in the UK since 1969?!?!!?!?!?!
UK #1's
‘It’s All Over Now’ (1964)
‘Little Red Rooster’ (1964)
‘The Last Time’ (1965)
‘(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction (1965)
‘Get Off My Cloud’ (1965)
‘Paint it Black’ (1966)
‘Jumpin’ Jack Flash’ (1968)
‘Honky Tonk Women’ (1969)
US #1's
'(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction'
'Get Off of My Cloud'
'Paint It, Black'
'Ruby Tuesday'
'Honky Tonk Women'
'Brown Sugar'
'Angie'
'Miss You'
'Living In A Ghost Town'
The one in bold was not a number one single in the US.
It was #1 on the iTunes chart, hence the reason for its inclusion. I don't know how iTunes compares to Billboard. I'd think in this day and age that, given the number of folks who listen digitally vs. can even buy a hard-copy physical release, that this chart would matter more. What's more, a great amount of fuss was made about it being the Stones first #1 in 40 years. For these reasons, I included it.
To put it this way - #1 on iTunes does not translate to #1 on Billboard. It can certainly coincide but it does not dictate how Billboard charts songs or albums.
What was it on the Spotify singles chart? Or Amazon singles chart? Tidal? iHeart? Etc. See how that is?
Billboard encompasses ALL but not equally. Streaming, especially a package deal like Apple Music etc, x amount a month, doesn't get counted the same as a (purchased) single or album sale.
OK fair point. I'll remove it from the list. It did reach #3 on Billboard - their highest charting song since SMU. Higher than Mixed Emotions even!!!
Not sure which billboard chart it was, but I’m 99% it wasn’t the Hot 100.

It appears to be the Billboard Digital Sales Song Chart. Who knew there were so many friggin charts!!!

Actually it may have been #1 on the Billboard Digital Song Sales Chart too. Nearly 2,000,000 sales is no small feat for a band as irrelevant as the Stones are to most younger than Gen X

First thought that came to mind - trainwreck.
Love the original studio version with every bone in my body, but can't imagine them playing a worthy/cohesive version of it in their current state.
It's fast and probably a bit too quirky for them to do it justice these days, and n fact according to setlistfm, they haven't played it since 1966.
Can't see them trying to resurrect it now, unless they stripped it down to a slow blues tune...or a dirge...acoustic...out on the b-stage....nah, nevermind...

HYSYMB is 100 BMP while GOOMC is 126 BPM.

Congratulations
No disrespects to Charlie, but I believe they have more chance of pulling it off with Steve Jordan than they would've with CW in recent years. Those live versions of '19th Nervous Breakdown' from last year have more energy than the versions from the Voodoo Lounge era!

Is it confirmed that Chanel is coming out with them this time?
Return of BS? I'm saying no way is that happening. IMO.

They didn't play 19th Nervous Breakdown on the VL-tour. The BTB-tour versions were good though.
I think Charlie's drumming had tons of energy up until 2007, from 2012 and onwards he slowed down a bit (but still played with a nice groove and feel).
Steve's drumming with the Stones doesn't do anything for me. It's professional and tight but adds nothing to the songs. Don't think I will ever see them live again.
