Are there any Stones songs you loved, or still love, but you can't listen to them because you have heard them so many times to the point where when it comes on you say to yourself "Hmm, do I want to listen to this?". I'm not saying the song has to be bad, because it could even be one of your favorites.
This is rare because I rarely tire of anything Stones - but I can't really listen to 'Miss You'. Now, I know alot of people don't dig it, but I do. It's a good song, admit it. When I first got into the band, I used to dig the shit out of this song. Now it's like "Eh" when it comes on, and I usually skip it.
At the moment I'm not listening to A Bigger Bang - it's great and I love it, but I go thru periods where I play it so much I get utterly burned out on it. I'm there now, but in a few weeks I'll probably be back to playing it at least every other day.
SOL falls into a different category, songs I can't listen to at all, ever. I just reburned ABB in a different order and without SOL. The live version does sound promising, tho, I'd like to hear that one.
Paint It Black... From one of the albums, I just press SKIP on the CD-player. But in concert, it's a favourite! Funny thing, this. And I guess I'm not so happy with Dance, either on CD or in concert...
I can honestly say that when it comes to my favorite stones albums... stripped, fingers, ya-yas, letitbleed come to mind... there's not one song I can't listen to... Sister Morphine is a bit tedious at times I suppose, but that's about it.
Angie, I love the song but to be true I never play it at home or skip it, and I think I have the same with "Miss You". But the funny thing is that when I hear them on the radio I wont turn it off.
I love ABB but I really can't stand Streets of Love. It's the only Stones song that I find almost impossible to listen to. I usually listen to Stones' cd's the whole way through without skipping anything, but I just can't stand SOL.

You're so right... the lyrics ( she drove a pick-up truck, painted green and blue = AARGh ) are so poor, it just doesn't feel like the stones
The one good thing about this song, is when KR sings along on the BTB DVD: he starts too early ( " and she you use it well, yes, she does), MJ laughing, KR replies "two times she does..." quit funny...
An other song I use to skip is "like a rolling stone" on stripped, I love the album, but I just can't listen to this song, don't know why...

Mothers Little Helper Sweethearts Together Cherry O Baby Memory Moon Is Up Feel On Baby Fool To Cry Indian Girl
I'm sure there are others but those are all tunes that I never once enjoyed listening to. As a kid listening to hotrocks on my walkman I always hated Mothers Little Helper. If I had a cd player I'd be able to skip past it, but on tape that was precious wasted listening time getting past an incredibly irritating song. Such a horrible guitar line.

The Stones covered Blowin' in the Wind? How was it?
