Exile was my number 2 album and I didn't vote for a single song off of it -- it's an album that I can't break into its constituent parts that easily.

I wasn't invited into the villa, no, just stood outside its gates & enjoyed the odor of money

Yup, not sure I can think of another album that is so obviously most perfect whole.

don't hate me, but while i lovvvvve the slow beginning of shine a light, i'm not crazy about it when it gets a-rockin'.

never liked "mother's little helper", the combination of condescension and (what strikes me as feigned) sympathy sticks in my craw. reminds me of the ballot thread conversation about "salt of the earth". this is something jagger does frequently, especially when addressing women.

I booted Shine a Light in favor of another track from Exile...but goddamn it hurt me to do it. Piano on that kinda gets me.

I'll admit I didn't really give Undercover a fair shake when I was making out my ballot, and probably still wouldn't have voted for Undercover of the Night, but that's a pretty nice track.

i didn't vote for it either cuz i'll be goddamned i'm gonna have as much from undercover as i do from sticky fingers but it's still pretty great. one of their last attempts at 'contemporizing' their sound that worked.
― balls, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 21:22 (fourteen years ago)
didn't make my ballot Ry's slide on "memo" is just wicked

"back street girl" is one of those tracks that i love without reservation but that if this were the band that the stones were i wouldn't love them like i do. does that make sense? love the darkness hiding in twee stones but based on this there would have been no way to predict Sticky Fingers ever.
― all yoga attacks are fire based (rogermexico.), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 21:58 (fourteen years ago)
I can see that. and I think I agree.

Brian scares me, I've never understood why anyone found him the least bit attractive. Bill is def creepy.
But Mick, Keef and Charlie all have a certain handsomeness to me. Especially in their young years.

Mick got better looking in the late seventies -- dunno if anyone agrees.
Bill Wyman's face looks like poached salmon.

xxpost Alfred I feel you on 70's Mick...I might be inclined to agree. There is nothing about Bill Wyman that I like. I just find him to be a total knob. I even hate it when I notice a good bassline and think wow that's cool and then immediately after I'm like, ugh Wyman
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 22:43 (fourteen years ago)
"Dandelion" was first of mine to place! Made a strong push with me for some reason, was off my ballot for a while then it jumped up a bunch.
― grandavis, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 22:43 (fourteen years ago)
ok in the "Start Me Up" I will admit Mick Jagger looks like the seamstress who used to hem my pants twelve years.
