Back to Zero at 83?? Dafuq??

Just someone's opinion but gives a lot of room for discussion. Must have taken ages to put together

My impression after looking at this list is that the Stones don't have many songs that are actually "bad" (as in not good). There's only a small few. That's pretty impressive when you consider how big their catalog is. That's something I don't they get enough credit for actually.

An impossible task!

"Gonna find my way to heaven ..."

Despite self imposed ban from this forum, I must speak out.

The effort cannot be denied, However, Tumbling Dice, Tops, etc.. all underrated. Where is PMS? Plundered My Sole ( "I lent you my shoes but you plundered my sole") - just in case PMS might mean something else.

What a wasteful exercise. Only facts can be arranged in order, for example, population. Opinions, no.

he's trying to rehabilitate the entire album by the looks of it.

PMS is in at 152. But All About You and Can't Be Seen in the 300's????? And Hand Of Fate in at such a low pos. as 107? (should've been top 20) Covers included?!?!?! And the biggest joke of all, YCAGWYW wins it?!?!?! Who's the c**t who wrote the list? Everybody knows that the top 3 should have SFTD, GS and SFM in no particular order and then SMU, TD and BS as their closest rivals. Good thing Let It Loose is Close to the goal.

Don't mess with our loved ones!!!!!

This is hardcore trainspotter stuff.

I can't take anyone who doesn't have JJF in their top 5 seriously.

A lot of work to say he didn't like Blue and Lonesome.

I couldn't agree more! Mad Max is full of s+!%. A Top 6 with no Satisfaction and no JJF??? These would be in any serious Top 5 of the best Stones songs. And (probably) Honky Tonk W. too.

It's any interesting and entertaining read. And I am glad that Dirty Work did well, however, it's way too subjective. Way too subjective...

The writer admits that It's Only Rock & Roll is a classic and puts it at 109. Bollocks.

This still could and should have been done in a more objective way.

So many things are wrong with this list! But it must had been a huge undertaking.

Thanks for posting it here.

Beast of Burden is a better song. It's a very clever song. Maybe not underrated but somehow forgotten among the fans. Maybe it's too likable.

Dirty Work is an underated but very good album, a semi-classic, imo. DW is their best 80s album, no doubt about it. It rocks hard, it grooves like hell, it is raw, sleazy and full of anger, passionate singing and superb guitar attacks all over. I never understood how could there be so much hatred for a very good album. DW beats the hell out of any album they recorded afterwards. What makes people think One Hit, Fight, Winning Ugly, DW, Had It With You etc are bad songs? I´ll never know...

NO. It's NOT

YES. It IS.

funny list...best entry:
327. “This Place Is Empty,” A Bigger Bang
Got a big presentation to give tomorrow and can’t sleep? You’re out of Ambien? Try this Keith bore.

I have to agree with Potus ... IT IS NOT WAY NOT !!!!

Tough hearing favourites like All About You getting dissed. Entertaining read though.

the great twenty eight:

1. gimme shelter
2. jumping jack flash
3. honky tonk women
4. moonlight mile
5. brown sugar
6. ycagwyw
7. tumbling dice
8. start me up
9. street fighting man
10. midnight rambler
11. sympathy
12. satisfaction
13. happy
14. paint it black
15. ruby tuesday
16. before they make me run
17. get off my cloud
18. under my thumb
19. no expectations
20. wild horses
21. mother's little helper
22. 19th feverous breakdown
23. let's spend the night together
24. the last time
25. can't you hear me knocking
26. time is on my side
27. you got the silver
28. bitch

Very solid list. Beast of Burden should be in there too. Miss You should also be there at #30, because of it's wide appeal to many fans and it's commercial success, also it remains important since it's always played at concerts and provides an opportunity for a rest room break, without missing much.

Good effort by the author of the entire list. No way anyone would agree with it completely, but it's interesting; and his comments on each song are appreciated.

ROCKMAN

the version of Bitch on SF Deluxe has to be on any top 10 list. Maybe best KR moments on guitar ever.
