Dylan also pulled off that art of pretend forgetfulness...until Chronicles, in which he proved he remembered everything.

I keep thinking about Rolling Stones music used well in non-Scorsese films: opening credits of Coming Home (2:45).

I was surprised by my inability to cut No Expectations, expect it'll make my final cull
― Euler, Wednesday, 28 March 2012 01:02 (twelve years ago) link
the existence of "no expectations" is why i was so comfortable cutting stuff like "sway" and "winter", tbh
― Fozzy Osbourne (contenderizer), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 01:18 (twelve years ago) link
No Expectations got a vote
how can you even cut Sway AND Winter, christ you are the Genghis Khan of voting

btw since my ballot is going to make sick monkey love to Mick Taylor and slight the Woodie Years, let me just say that Ron Wood's pedal steel playing on "the worst" absolutely makes the track. takes a special kind of player to deliver the goods like that while never chafing in the role of Keef's Valet.

or in general
just started watching that marquee club vid you posted. "live with me" is great!
― Fozzy Osbourne (contenderizer), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 05:42 (twelve years ago) link
SO GOOD
It sort of feels like Mick's flagging when they start 'Satisfaction' and then ZOOM! he's got a whole new gear for the last 2 and a half songs.
the little dance him and Bobby do together during Brown Sugar is A+
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 05:44 (twelve years ago) link
"dead flowers" is such a beautiful song, it's only the wierd, affected american "country" accent he was putting on circa let it bleed that keeps me at a distance
― Fozzy Osbourne (contenderizer), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 05:46 (twelve years ago) link
as a american
― Fozzy Osbourne (contenderizer), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 05:47 (twelve years ago) link
i dunno, maybe that's how we sound to yawl
Yeah that was what stopped me from voting Far Away Eyes. I love the song soooooo much, but I can't defend the drawl, lol.
Dead Flowers too.
They do such GREAT interpretations of country, stylistically, and it's not that the drawl is bad it's just hard to convince someone who's never heard the song that it's really okay.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 05:49 (twelve years ago) link
well okay it is bad
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 05:50 (twelve years ago) link
love this version. check out Mick giving Keith lyric reminders in that last chorus

Keith's harmonies on that were A+
I love him.
I'm kinda mad at myself for not voting for Dead Flowers now. WHOSE DUMB IDEA WAS IT TO ONLY VOTE FOR 20 SONGS.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 05:56 (twelve years ago) link
saxophone mullet keeps fucking me up. not the playing, which is fine, just the hair.
― Fozzy Osbourne (contenderizer), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 05:58 (twelve years ago) link
WHOSE DUMB IDEA WAS IT TO ONLY VOTE FOR 20 SONGS.
yeah, for this poll, just 20 songs seems criminal. would have been much satisfied w 40. my top 40 is unfwable.

saxophone mullet = Bobby Keys = bow down
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 06:02 (twelve years ago) link
I didn't know this, as if he needed to be awesomer (from Keys wikipedia entry) Other recordings made by Keys was the baritone saxophone on Elvis Presley's "Return to Sender", and on John Lennon's first American solo #1 single hit (and the only US #1 in Lennon's lifetime) "Whatever Gets You thru the Night".

xp lol, i shoulda guessed. know his playing, but not his growth.

Doesn't Start Me Up automatically place on the most hated list? I was in high school when it came out. It was a defining song - if you loved it, you couldn't be a real Stones fan. For years we laughed when the DJ said he was going to play some classic Stones and put on Start Me Up. Too plastic and shiny. The riff was an cheap high when we knew they were capable of Brown Sugar. And the lyrics. After absorbing the murk of Live With Me, Shattered and Stray Cat Blues, Start Me Up just seemed like a joke. Guess I better send in my hated songs ballot.
― that's not my post, Wednesday, 28 March 2012 06:09 (twelve years ago) link
i was 14 & jr. high, thus not properly schooled in the ways of the HS world. i dug "start me up" and still feel a faded echo of the initial attraction, despite the shinyness, despite years of hideous flogging abuse by bill gates and his corpse buddies.
plus VG otm, that hyde park "bitch" fucking RIPS
