Quotebarbabang Really great track. Still holds up. Best Stones song in ages. Really. (In my opinion of course.) I have to agree. Easily my favorite on the bonus release. Well not 'easily', as Signifying comes close.

He he, you're still discussing your favourite song in here Some songs just don't do it for me. Considering all the Stones songs I love compared to the ones I don't, they still are fairing pretty good!

QuoteHis Majesty QuoteLeonidP I'm not saying they were punk. Certainly they weren't. ...

Well, they can't be expected to be masters of every musical turn this pop group took. Reggae is deceptively simple. Just not convincing. Well they have me convinced, and somehow managed to convince the Marley/Tosh/Toots/Cliff etc. of the reggae world.

QuoteHis Majesty QuoteLeonidP Punk? Not punk? What's the difference, the songs are still amazing. But to that topic, to those that say no punk, I think they are missing a big part of what punk is ... first of all, this gets lumped in as 'punk' because it was highly publicized in the press at that time, as the Stones answer to punk. In addition, punk is not only about he fast

Queen, The Clash, Blondie, Michael Jackson, Springsteen, Prince, the Police, Hall and Oates, Cyndy Lauper, and a whole barrel full of one hit wonders. At least the first half of the 80s was fantastic. wait, were you arguing for or against that post?
