That's interesting... I'm assuming that you don't actually live in a hostel in Athens...
My idea for the thread here is kind of like the "What are you listening right now?" threads.
Except that I mean what Stones recording did people hear earlier today going about their business in the outside world... And that you weren't the one choosing what tunes to play. it could be on the radio in the car, for example.
was watching MSNBC "news" watching way in the middle of the night...losing brain cells with their every word... ...anyway, they are talking about the u.s. primary elections and the Iowa Caucus etc... and when they cutaway for a commercial, the outro bumper is about thirty seconds of the studio version of 'satisfaction'

Yes, that's a current TV commercial by Sony, I believe. And, over here, the German Telekom have their present TV spot with Paint it, black, which is cast on all channels over and over.

Yeah, me too. I was not surprised to not hear any Stones unexpectely at work today.
Browsing through the secondhand books in the Oxfam shop (where the background music is usually something from a Rough Guide world music album) my ears suddenly went on "That's Keith!" alert, and I spent the next few minutes happily listening to Happy. Next up was Angie. Well, I can't spend all day in the Oxfam shop, but now I'm trying to work out which compilation has Happy followed by Angie. Is it the new Rolled Gold?

"Rough Justice" on my own stereo....I was actually expecting "Raising Sand" by Plant and Krauss - forgot I had switched CDs late last night so "ABB" started out instead....nice jolt to get going in the morning
It wasn't today, but a number of months ago...YCAGWYW playing from another vehicle at the gas station. I listened, recognized it, caught the guy's eye and asked "Brussels?" He smiled and nodded. It was, of course, unmistakable.
I was at an Italian deli in Stamford, CT that is run by a bunch of Dead-head looking guys maybe in their late 20s. While waiting for food I heard a live version of Sway from one show during the ABB tour.. someone there is keeping up with the Stones and their shows.. was very impressed.
Also heard Baby Break it Down on a New Haven radio station, WPLR back, in 1994 and the DJ said, new classic music from the Stones..
