A mate of mine proposed this a long time ago, he reckons they should put out a call for songwriters too submit their best "Rolling Stones" Songs.

I know plenty of songwriters who will write in another's style in a hope for them to maybe record it...

Example : Paul Stanley writing "Forever" and especially "Hard Lick Woman" in Rod Stewart's style.

Now this is Uncle Tony's suggestion, yes that Uncle Tony so be nice

They call them "outside producers", not songwriters

> outside songwriters <

So, the Greatest Rock'n'Roll-Band on Earth needs crutches?

That would demote them to "Aerosmith-like" rank? No good!

Otoh I'd dream of a meeting between Desmond Child and Keith : "F&ck off you stinky little turd! You pretend to teach me my job!!!??? Pierre!! Get me my switchblade!! Yeah the BIG one!!"

simply put: because they are the Rolling Stones
(beside that: 'Almost Hear You Sigh' is credited to Jagger/Richards/Jordan)

Never. Ever.
I prefer waiting instead.

No way , then that would not be the Rolling Stones aka the Glimmer Twins . Before they ever do that they could toss Ronnie a credit as I think he only has one right ? Was it for Dance ?

I'd rather them never record again or another B&L style album

Shouldn't be any problem, and I'm positive even Keith would approve if all songs were written by us on IORR, together, and posted here, lyrics and chords

Heck yeah ... it's easy just pull out
some hip words and dump 'em on a blues riff ....



ROCKMAN

....and a rocker in A-D with somef mildly offensive expressions every now and then, to keep relevant to the younger generation. I think we got a plan!

Ballad for Keith: "Sailing To Bali In An Open Fishing Boat" and a somewhat cheer-up-ballad for Mick: "Baking Princess Cake On A Sunny Day"

Yeah Erik .... something like

The crosseyed kid didnt mean any harm
But he saw Mr Licky do ya at the tulip farm ...


Can ya work on that Erik ... ???



ROCKMAN

Would you let in some outside 'producer' to get your wife pregnant so you could have another youngin'?

If it won't work for me, it won't work for the Stones

Yeah Franky asked me the same thing ...
But even in a cattle crush and a paper
bag over her head ... nobody wanted ta touch Elenore

Oh, not bad, Rockman, but is that the ballad or the rocker?

It cranks off as a rocker but
then pulls down into a ballad
after Snoop Doggy Dog raps about
what pizza ham is really made from ....



ROCKMAN

Okay Erik ... you work on it

I gotta go eat a hot dog before I go ta bed ...

Well, Keith already did if with 'Lover's Plea'.

They've proven to be absolutely capable of writing great, good, average, bad and awful songs. They don't need help.

Paul Stanley? You mean KISS?

Jesus Christ, now I have heard everything. Of course KISS does it, they got no talent beyond long disgusting tongues, and that only takes one so far.

Do me favor and lock the door.

They don't need that. They must have enough songs if Jagger can easily give one away to Brad Paisley of all people (Drive of Shame). It's just that they just don't believe in these songs. But authors are often the worst judges of their own work, or so the saying goes.

Sounds like an idea for a bad reality TV show.

If that was the alternative, I'd rather they just admitted the game is up and retire, to be honest.

Not at all a bad idea considering the fact that they don't write songs together anymore. What a, profiled and successful, outsider could do is to get them on hit charts again.
Which they haven't been that good at since SMU. Ask Charlie. If they can't produce hits on their own, let somebody else do it for them. Like Elvis or Sinatra did.
And it isn't such a big leap. Jagger is already stealing songs from the charts. Like Anybody Seen My Baby for instance.
