Claudine in as the opener. Then Miss You as track 2 and remove Lies.

What is this from? A Buster Keaton Movie ?

Some Girls is in the top 5 Stones albums and their best commercially selling album.
If you could replace one song with a song on the Outtakes CD...would it be?
I think LIES is the Weakest Track on Some Girls.
I would replace it with DO YOU THINK I WOULD REALLY CARE.
Kind of Country but not in competition with Far Away Eyes like No Spare Parts.
SO YOUNG actually sounds the most like a Some Girls Track...which would be my 2nd alternate.
But WE HAD IT ALL is my favorite outtake...but I don't see it fitting on Some Girls.
They had a lot to choose from and I think they did a great job and the sales say so...but LIES sounds like the outtake to me and they could have chosen something better from all the Outtakes.

Replace Miss You... yes with the 12 minute bootleg version.
Everything's Turning To Gold is the missing track from SOME GIRLS 1978. Love this one better than Imagination (just a cover...).
When The Whip Comes Down... listen to the 8 minute + version...
Best track for me on the bonus disc is KEEP UP BLUES, but this one was finished in 2010-2011 or something.
EVERYTHING'S TURNING TO GOLD in... Imagination out...
No. Make it an 11 track vinyl album.

Some Girls is awesome...and I'm amazed that IORR fans after LIES...which is
obvious...that they would replace Miss You...and Far Away Eyes
MISS YOU was the most relevant record they recorded since Gimme Shelter...
and the last relevant song (for the times) that they recorded.
Disco ruled the airwaves in 1978 (at least here in America) and these boys bodied the disco empire in the height of disco in the summer of 1978 and had a six week run of #1...beating the Bee Gees, Donna Summer, Saturday Night Fever etc...
That was their last relevant timely record of the times that they ever recorded and there is no way Some Girls would be Some Girls without Miss You.
If Lies wasn't on the record...I don't see the sales slipping by 1%.
Some people said Far Away Eyes should go bye bye...
Had they skipped the country flavor and added So Young...the album would have been super punk...but they were obviously in a country mood with Far Away Eyes,
No Spare Parts, Do You Think I Would Really Care and We Had It All It.
At the end of the day...I love Some Girls...but Lies has always been the week link for me on an album that is a 10+

I agree that Lies is the only weak track. Punk by numbers. Everything else on the album is pretty great.
