Laugh, I Nearly Died

There's something about this song that really grows on me. I don't think the Stones realize how good it really is. Certainly up there on the list.

still trying to get around Mick's vocal on this one - like the music fine

This has become the "sleeper" for me too. I really like it until the background vocals towards the end - silly and cheesy, ruins the whole mood but I dig the groove!

Yeah me too to an extent; the vocals really need some getting used to, but all things considered, this could be up there with Respectable, Rocks Off, Hand of Fate and the like. I also think Infamy is good enough to be released as a single.

A Stones Classic ... but when Mick sings "I've been to Africa, looking for my soul" does he mean his own soul or the soul of the music (blues) that's definitly in him?

I think this and Rain are my two favourite ABB trax.
Definately a lot happening there stylistically,
lyrically. Are new Stones classics for me!

I think it's one of the best vocals on the album, and a great ending - give me chanting and hand claps, I love that sh*t!

This song is awsome. Sneaks up on you, the chorus is very different, so simple yet powerful. Jagger sings it to the hilt. I love the back-up vocals too, the ending just slays me, shades of Marvin Gaye?

I ain't stupid, I'm just guitarded.
