The one song on the new album I really don’t like. It’s just sort of bland. Even the band sounds uninterested in it. I’m surprised it made the cut when Bad Luck Hideaway was … hidden away.

And the drums? Sounds like a wet cardboard box being thrashed with a broom. Horrid.

On first listen, I thought this was a standout track. I liked it very much.

I'm happy that there are so many uptempo songs on the album. It's a very pleasant surprise.

I love this one! The beat, the guitars, hook, Jagger!

Do I hear some 1970’s soul in this? Took a few listens but kind of like it.

Fantastic track. I was dancing after 1 min haha

Great tune. Hell of a groove. Daryl (I think?) is doing some great work here, would be a standout live with the breakdown in the middle

Nah… that’s on Dirty Work

The groove is fantastic! The lyrics are such a standard clichee love song, that it’s a bit kitschy and bland for the Stones.

Or is there a twist to the lyrics I haven’t discovered yet?

I liked it on first listen and enjoy it even more listening to it again several times now. It's such a groovy dance song. This an Mr. Charm are near the top for me right now.

Fills me with pure joy!!
(There I go…. fawning again lol)

First few seconds weren't promising, but then that thumping bass felt like it was going to drag me back to the 1970s. Ok that didn't happen, it's more modern than that. It turns out to be more like a part 2 of Mess It Up. I really enjoy this song.

Funny thing is that the beat is exactly how they played Mess It Up live

Well that explains my last comment!

It‘s a fun track and I think it would tear the roof of live with a little Mick-Darryl interplay.

Frankly, on first listen that's my favorite tune off the new album. That bass sound, I was like "goddamn!" and Mick's singing is on point. The backing vocals. Love it. Love it.

Am I reading this wrong? Steve Jordan only drummed on 4 tracks. One of my favorites.

Probably my favorite dance track Mick's done since "Sweet Thing". Love the bass and organ parts and the backup vocals really help elevate it.

It's not a bad song. But it sounds more like an outtake from Goddess in the Doorway than a Stones song.

Fantastic disco track, great hook!

Time to swap MY with this one in the set. Lovely track

Irresistible stuff, and immediste standout for me. Magic!

It has a great Undercover feel to it, especially love the dubby breakdown!

To me, that sounds most like the live version of "Miss You," when Mick gets everyone to sing along.

Drums, guitars, and Mick's voice all hit the mark. If my old body would allow it, I would dance to it.

It should be titled Miss You Too

The bass line and the vibe is almost taken from Miss You. Great track!

What a killer of a track.

@2.53 he sings "And nothing goes your way" Anyone else thought it sounded like he was doing a little David Bowie impression?

A very joyful track, nice groove.

Sounds like there are congas on this track.

No one credited with percussion unless we count Bruno Mars' cowbell.

I don't think they would resort to a synthesizer for that.

Assume it's Watt or Jordan?
