Its a war-horse indeed.

The best Jagger..solo cut.

Smokin' hot. I wish the Stones would do a number like that.

I have to say, it's a catchy tune. I listen to it often and wonder if with Keith's riffing it would sound even better?

Agreed.

I agree it is one of if not the best solo Jagger song. It totally smokes a lot of the Stones material, and everything Keith has ever done solo.
You know, Keith calls this album Dogshit in the Doorway, but at least I can at least tell the difference b/w Mick's songs and I can understand what he's singing. Goddess is a fantastic album and God Gave Me Everything shuold've been a bigger hit. The video rocks.
In fact, I'll go as far to say that I hope the next thing Jagger does is another solo album and a tour. I think Goddess is more interesting than ABB and it's 100% apparent that ABB is mostly Jagger's work, with very little input from Keith or the other guys (not Ronnie's or Charlie's fault tho). I think with all the hassle with Keith's fall, having to play songs that Keith knows well and the problems with Ronnie's rehab stints and Charlie's want to stop world tours, Mick should do a tour by himself. He could easily sell out theaters and concert halls throughout the world. If Virgin actually promoted his next album it cuold sell better and people would get more excited about it. A solo Jagger tour is very foreseeable I think if his next solo album has a semi-decent showing. B/w the next album, Goddess, W. Spirit, Old Habits Die Hard, and his other stuff plus a few Stones songs, he has more than enough material for a kickass tour.

awesome song! if the stones had done it i think it would have been huge

I agree with the first part of your statement. Disagree with the second

it's quite good - but Wandering Spirit has a plethora of songs that are better. (starting with Out of Focus, Put Me in the Trash, Hang on to me Tonight, and Evening Gown . . .)

Nikki, you don't like Wired All Night?

i love Wired All Night. that's why i said 'starting' with Out of Focus et al.

LMFAO!!
GITD sucks bad, the songs are good but the production is horrible.
Jagger won't tour alone, he can make the double of the money with a short Stones' tour that a whole world tour on his own.

It was on Dutch television last night, they played it while showing the highlights of NL-Port.

It's a warhorse indeed but don't forget it was written by Lenny Kravitz. Jagger only wrote the lyrics.

Mediocre song IMO. Awful guitar sound, horrible solo. Forced vocals. The song reaches compairable songs like Wired All Night, Lonely At The Top and Put Me In The Trash to the anckles only IMO.

put me in the trash - now there's a warhorse!

Happy Birthday now there's a War Horse
Ya hear it at least once every year......



ROCKMAN

you hear it once a year? then it's a rarity, rockman!!

AAHHHHH...rarity...Yeah ya got any outtakes nikkibong?



ROCKMAN

OK tune, but I miss great guitar playing on it. Ad the production is too slick. It wouldn't hold up with the Stones.

kravitz only wrote the ref

Ferrante?

the best track on Godess, but not by far the best of Mick solo songs! There are a lot f songs of Wandering Spirit far superior: Sweet Thing, Wired All Night, Out Of Focus, Don't Tear Me Up, Think, Evening Gown, and of course Wandering Spirit....

I'm with Dandelion. "Joy" and "God Gave Me" are average, the rest aren't even that.

Yup. God Gave Me is pretty meh.

i can't believe what i'm reading...its better than anything on a bigger bang...
god give me strength rocks..and the guitar riff is killer...

i guess different strokes for different folks.. i love the song...and was shocked when i first heard it at how good it was..

I like that song a lot, but aside from that one and a couple of others, I can't stand Goddess In The Doorway. Embarassingly bad are the words that come to mind - too bad such a great song had the misfortune of being on a shit album.

If Jagger were to make another solo album I think he should ask Mick Taylor to play guitar on it since they seemed to work so well together (Winter, Moonlight Mile, etc).

Gotta go with Keith's assessment of the album. Wandering Spirit towers above his other solo efforts.

Yeah..but that god ''Thing'' is very..ver good...and yeah Taylor would exel on this one!!!
