I'll take your whole list, minus Summer Romance and Suck on the Jugular...add Emotional Rescue....everything on UHSMR, except She's a Rainbow and Dandelion. I could probably add a few more, but even what I dislike is mostly listenable.

Voodoo Lounge (from A to Z)

Dangerous Beauty - this piece of crap sounds like a reject from some bullshit
Foreigner or Loverboy album circa 1980

It is a trick question. because I can only say "least favorite" within Stones confines. Only compared to other Stones tunes. because I would rather hear my least fave Stonessong any day than most other bands period.
That said my least faves are
Hold Back
Blinded by Love
Losing My Touch
Rock and a Hard Place
Sparks Will Fly

Primitive Cool

i am "shocked" to see that there are mentioned songs which i like much like Rock and a Hard Place, Hold Back, Fight, and Summer Romance! i know, tastes are different, but i dislike "kitchy" ballads like Blinded by Love or Indian Girl. From ABB i dislike Dangerous Beauty.

I would say there are only a few which I dislike...

Where The Boys Go
Might As Well Get Juiced (could have been cool if it weren't techno)
She Saw Me Coming (well its starting to grow on me a bit)
Back To Zero
There are some stinkers on Undercover but each one has at least something that makes the song listenable.

WSpirit, The thing about Hold Back IMo is it has Jagger just at his worst. The lyrics are ridiculous. He barks them with no rhytm, no elan. It is this stream of woof woof over a circulating bad riff. Reminds me of the way Jagger has been writing rockers in the new age. He gets lazy at times and seems to just force a stream of words out that he deems art.
RAAHP is another variation on Keith's Soul Survivor riff, in a more minor mode. It is the production, the forced hook of the chorus, the obligatory horns, that drumstop, the must-have drum/bass break buildup funk jam - this is probably the one song by them I dislike the most.
Losing my Touch is the other big culprit IMO. This is Keith by numbers. Keith dishes those smoky vocals out in his sleep. What is ironic is that the words of the chorus exactly say what is happening here.

The only three albums from the latest 25 years I listen to are Tatoo You, Voodoo Lounge and occasionally Bridges. The rest of them aren't really that good.. lots of crappy, uninspired songs that I wouldn't miss for a minute. Obviously there a good songs on every album, but a lot of them aren't.
I never really listen to IORR, B&B or GHS either...although these albums are actually really good.

Re: How Many songs do you actually dislike?

I never really counted but,I would say 15,maybe a few more.

I'm probably the only one to write this, but I really don't care for "Angie."
Too whiney, too slow, too overwrought.

maybe 8-10 pre-beggars (My Girl and some of the cheesier covers, 3 or so from Satanic)

0 from 1968-1978 (yes i even like CYHTM and IYRWTBMF and FTC), but perhaps a few from metamorphisis.

and then it gets tricky; 1979-1989...about 10.

VL thru ABB -another dozen, mostly the 3 from 40licks (DS is okay) and about 3 each from the 3 studio cds.

damn! that's like 30!! i never would have guessed that high, but those are songs that i really can't handle and skip over every time. i'ld rather hear unfinished Trident studio jams, low-fi boots of sloppy shows and the screams on GLIYWI than the ones i've chosen. but hey, that leaves about 300 plus all the live stuff that i'm incredibly passionate about.

still surprising though; i thought it was going to be like 12. the main culprits: DW, VL, modern-era jagger ballads (not including AHYS and LIND), and Satanic. actually, when you think about how people complain about the post-TY cds, 1983-now, there should be a lot of folks with numbers in the 30's!! c'mon now, 'fess up! ha-ha! winking smiley

I'd have to say:

A lot of the Dirty Work album, Suck On The Jugular, most of Bridges, Miss You, hmmm, what else? Can't think of any more although there's probably loads that I'm forgetting. smiling smiley

P.S. - Blinded By Love and some of the tunes on Satanic Majesties are pretty good imo.

Streets Of Love
Blinded By Love
Blinded By Rainbows
Always Suffering

And, of course, the infamous outtake "My Love Is Always Suffering Because She's Been Blinded By Streets Full Of Rainbows."

I dislike a good 3/4 of Voodoo Lounge and a couple each on B2B and ABB. There are tracks on Undercover and Dirty Work that aren't very good, but I still like the sound and attitude.

As winter said, some of the early covers are just badly chosen and incompetently played. "Money," "My Girl," "I've Been Loving You Too Long"... dislike is too harsh, though.

Maybe 20-25. Plus a grey zone of somngs that I dont listen to very often
(for me this is particularly [mid/late] 80s stuff, disco & castrate songs].
Most of´em from VL and Bridges.
I suspect it to a great extent has to do with
that these albums are fairly recent:
it´s always hardest to evaluate music that´s
some 5-10-15 years old (and the last album - aBB
in this case - may also be overrated).

It´s also tough sh*t judging where 60s & 70s albums
fillers are. I´d say there are some.

I can't honestly think of a Stones song I dislike hearing.

Re: How Many songs do you actually dislike?

Gomper
Get Juiced
Down In The Hole
Undercover

and, finally, the champ as the worst Stones song........

Cherry Oh Baby

I'm sure there are others (most of Majesties, for example), but these really hurt.

I will confine my list to the comparatively recent releases and only ones that they play live or have released as singles:

Streets of Love
You Got Me Rockin'
Mixed Emotions
Sad Sad Sad
Rock and a Hard Place
Don't Stop


From the classic era, I have never really cared for Live With Me. Not exactly sure why, but it has always grated on me a little.

I don't care for "Live With Me" either. Even the legendary Beggars, Bleed, Sticky, and Exile have some clunkers. But, damn, don't the good ones sound super?
