Despite being no 1 in the iTunes charts over here (and no. 50 on shazam ) Ghosttown wasn't played even once.

QuoteRockman The one bit of good Stones news in the middle of all this, however, is that Jagger and Richards have plenty of extra time on their hands now. “We’ve got another five or six tracks and there’s a lot of sort of soul feel about it for some reason without anybody intending to,” Richards said. “Obviously right now we’ve got nothing else to do but write some more songs, right?” Y

I think the reason why the Stones' contribution had such an impact (so many people talking about it, not just us here) is because it was so charming. And it had such a positive vibe. This was not about delivering a perfect performance in the technical sense, it was about delivering something suiting that particular occasion, and that's evidently what they did. Whatever the story behind

QuoteHairball Fun to watch the Stones even a second time, but performance wise it was a bit anticlimactic which is to be expected under the circumstances - watching twice was probably more than enough. Mick's singing was good along with his overall presence, but Ronnie was a bit loud, while Keith was a bit under the radar imo. You know when the highight of a performance is Charlie playing

I guess Mick produced a lead track and the others added their bit to that (with Charlie exploring the ride cymbal qualities of his sofa's armrest) and that was then edited together.

In order to get a better idea of the dark figure of infected persons, Austria conducted a nationwide cross-sectional (prevalence) study, testing a sample of 1566 symptom-free persons in the age range from <1 year to 94 years in the first week of April.
