quite difficult:

the 80ies...well they only wrote 3 really good songs: one hit and undercover
the 90ies...impossible to choose, because there is nothing outstanding
the 00ies....one album....well...must be back of my hand

im suprised that "One Hit" is such a popular choice. to me that song is like one of those 80's 'fight' songs, the kind of stuff Frank stallone did.

60s-Sympathy For The Devil
70s-Brown Sugar
80s-Start Me Up
90s-Flip The Switch
00s-This Place Is Empty

60s - Gimme Shelter / Lets Spend the night together

70s - Brown sugar / Faraway eyes

80s - Worried About You / Slipping Away

90s - Love Is Strong / Blinded By Rainbows

00s - Under The Radar / Laugh I Nearly Died

should be 4 for the 60s
4 for the 70s
3 for the 80s
2 for the 90s
1 for 00s
just to get the balance right.

Jumping Jack Flash
Brown Sugar
Mixed Emotions
Out of Control
Laugh I Nearly Died

Were they to write another faux-"Start Me Up", like "Sad Sad Sad" has been one, this one could surely get them to #1 again in the current climate.

Musically, I really like Don't Stop. Ronnie's guitar rules things here. But the lyrics, well, "you scratched your nails upon my back / boy your nails were sharp / don't stop" is somewhat cringe-worthy, unfortunately.

Oh I like the lyrics for that one. Typical Jagger lyric.
