Undercover of the Night being inspired by William Burroughs's Cities of the Red Night comes to mind. Also the Cure's Killing an Arab, inspired by Albert Camus's The Stranger.

Yeah what tooootal burnouts are the audience near the stage. Are they even awaaaaake?! >>> I've tracked down more live versions of UNDER MY THUMB from the '81/'82 tour than any other song from any other tour. I just love how they rocked it up, substituting Brian's marimba riffs with Ronnie's guitar. (De gustibus non est disputandum — Taste is not debatable.)

So many Stones songs have the I-IV-V chord progression, or close (Ian Stewart disliked SOME GIRLS because so many of its songs went that way) or the Jimmy Reed up-and-down-the-guitar-neck progression (GIMME SHELTER and many others) I thought with PRIMITIVE COOL Mick was consciously trying to work "outside his bailiwick" with this different progression, and not that successfully.

The album has some Keith-penned songs with anti-Mick lyrics that Mick is singing. In Bill's STONE ALONE he said Had It with You is one such song. Did Mick realize he was singing an anti-Mick song? Anyway, I've wondered if Winning Ugly is in that category.
