Bill’s Ju Suis Un Rockstar faired better on the U.K. singles chart than Mick or Keith solo release; Dancing in the Street, aside. I think Ju Suis reaches the dizzying heights of #14 It stayed in the top-40 for a reasonable time, too.

I should listen to it. I have heard it before, though don’t recollect the melody.

Bill has "some" decent songs, but sorry, Je Suis Un Rockstar is not one of them... despite that it may have had some sales (most probably from Stones fans, I highly doubt anyone listed to that on the radio and decided they had to have it).

It's great. It's very quirkiness is what makes it. He came up with what he called, 'Cockney French'. And he plays all those fun keyboards, along with his bass. He couldn't get anyone else to record and I think he just loosened up. It's too bad he wasn't able to contribute more keyboards/synths to Stones songs. He's actually quite good.

I think it could have been a novelty hit without it being Bill Wyman. It went to number 5 in Australia.

Pussy in the well right now
Never put your pussy down
Pussy in the well right now
Never put your pussy down

Cause there might come a time
When I need a little pussy
And a little pussy can't be found

So pussy in the world right now
Never put your pussy down

Ooooh I need your pussy right now
Ooooh I miss it so
Ooooh last time I lost your pussy
Didn't want to let her go
Never should've let her go

Ooooh I need your pussy right now
Ooooh I miss it so
Ooooh last time I lost your pussy
Didn't want to let her go
Never should've let her go

Ding dong bell
Pussy's in the well
Who put your pussy down?
Ding dong bell
Pussy's in the well
Who put your pussy down?

Cause now's the time
I need a little pussy
And a little pussy can't be found

Ding dong bell
Pussy's in the well
Whoever put your ding dong down

Really? Great? LOL, who other than Stones fans even knows about this today? I wouldn't necessarily call it awful, but its certainly not any good.

If it is mostly Stones fans who bought it into charts, why Ronnie Wood or even Keith Richards do not have any single in top 75 in UK charts ever (could be top 100 as well, or charting at all, but my source just listed 75)? And even Mick has not managed to do better without dueting with a high-profile co-stars?

Stones fans like to support Wyman, but not the rest?

Translation: a weak argument to bash Wyman.

How this differ from any Ronnie, Keith or even Mick solo song (Jagger's duet with Bowie is a sort of cult classic the hipsters know these days). Or actually of any Stones song since "Start Me Up"?

I wasn't bashing Bill ... I was bashing the song. It's not a good song, no matter how you look at it.

** Edit ... now if it was Bill bashing I wanted to do, i could have went on about his lack of talent when it comes to song writing or singing, but i left that out. As a Bass Player, I give him credit there!

Nope. I just stated that the Wyman song is as a hardcore Stones fan item as any of those other songs by the artists I mentioned. What you think about it (is it good or not), or what I do, does not mean a shit. There is a difference between facts and opinions.

To make the point clear: That I think The Rolling Stones is the best band ever and I don't care a shit about the Beatles does not change the fact that the Beatles has always been much more popular and influental band than The Stones ever. Opinions and facts.
