It´s exactly the same with me. But mostly I start with Start Me Up. Try to play Jumpin Jack Flash not with capo at 4 th fret, but in G also. To me it even rocks harder than in B!
Honky tonk was the first time i heard the stones.
It's more of a copy kitty really
Never thought of it that way. I'll keep that in mind.
this is a very interesting wrinkle. in my original post, i was referring to the studio version released as a single.
but perhaps we should in fact be evaluating different versions of the song vs. one another.
Talk about your favorite band.

I really like Brown Sugar but have nonetheless thought it a tad overrated but absolutely love Honky Tonk Women. I put them together naturally, though, because after I tune my guitar to open-G I inevitably play those a lot because they're both in Open-G. And then I play Start Me Up. So I always play those three together.

Both are absolutely excellent songs. Both must have sounded awesomely cool when they came out and for me they actually still do.

Interesting thread. They're very different songs with very different tempos.
Brown Sugar is near perfect mid tempo rock and roll song. Killer guitar parts, on-the-edge lyrics and the instrumental part right before each verse is awesome. Add the sax break in the middle, end with "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Woo and you've got all the elements of a classic.
Honky Tonk Women has slower sensual groove right from Keith's first chords. I agree with the comment about a great opening lyric. The chorus is a great hook and sets up the verse that follows ("I laid a divorcee in New York City..." ) And Keith's simple solo fits this one perfectly.
What to they have in common? They are both great singalongs at concerts. They both tell a smarmy story in their lyrics and I love hearing them both every time I see the band.
I can do the compare and contrast analysis all day long, but they're both indispensible in my opinion.
Honky tonk was the first time i heard the stones.

When BS comes on the radio I change the station. When HTW comes on the radio I turn it up.
Second copy cat in this thread. How thrilling.

Personally I would go with Brown Sugar,but that's just me.I would have it in my top 10 records of all time for me.
Nothing wrong with HTW,a great record in its' own right.

I consider Brown Sugar one of the greatest rock and roll songs of all time.
Perhaps *the* greatest.

Can we specify that we mean Honky Tonk Women with the Paris verse?
Apparently that was one of the original verses before they decided to make it all American.
Was it at Hyde Park 2012 or Berlin 2013 that the Mick threw in the Paris verse? Wherever it was it was a joy to hear.
"Naked as the day that I will die" is one of those perfect lines.
