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

"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.

ok in the "Start Me Up" I will admit Mick Jagger looks like the seamstress who used to hem my pants twelve years.

hoo-ray for "back street girl"! so lovely and nasty and sad. was my #6 and my 2nd to show up (after "angie"). i like the girl songs, i guess.
"start me up" is p great, but agree w grandavis. the world is too much with it.

Woo! Undercover Of The Night made it! I reckon that's probably it for my ballot though :(
― Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 22:48 (twelve years ago) link
btw if i've learned one thing over the past couple weeks of exploration that i wasn't expecting, it's that Mick Jagger can't dance, could never dance, should never dance, and for 50 years now has insisted on dancing at every opportunity. what the hell.

was as over 'start me up' as everyone else and then st sanders revived it - http://bit.ly/HeC2Li
― balls, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 22:48 (twelve years ago) link
"Jig-Saw" was my #2. "With a blood-curdling 'tally-ho,' she charged into the ranks" is probably my favorite Jagger moment ever.

there's a line that can be drawn between Mick Jagger and Peter Garrett, I'm pretty sure.

Just going back over the results so far
Memo To Turner -- I was unfamiliar with it til now, and omg I really dig this. Backstreet Girl -- I toyed with voting for this but I couldn't find a spot for it in my hard-fought 20. Such a pretty song though.Jigsaw Puzzle -- this would SO get a place on a longer ballot. I love the lyrical hook of the chorus, I love the lyrics, it's just such a good jamDandelion -- I would like this song so much more without the bloody harpischord or whatever the fuck that is. It's not a bad song otherwise, but I don't know that I exactly love it?

The opening gambit in the "Start Me Up" video truly is some next level horseshit. I mean, it's gold in a way, but has Jagger gone on record at all in respects to whether or not his dancing is tongue in cheek at all? But, I mean, between this and the "Dancing In The Streets" video with Bowie, are there enough drugs involved to really explain it, or is it just supremely shining stars needing a flaw to make them human?
― grandavis, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 22:56 (twelve years ago) link
Uh, too many "at all"s in there, sorry
I've been watching the Start Me Up video and I feel like Mick dances as though he's only paying attention to every 3rd move the choreographer gives him.
He just JERKS alive in random places, like he just got this new human body and he's trying it out. He's so weird.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 22:56 (twelve years ago) link
englishman tries to pull off james brown and tina turner - you were expecting different results?
― balls, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 22:57 (twelve years ago) link
Wow, do you think there is a choreographer involved?
― grandavis, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 22:59 (twelve years ago) link
okay, now keep this in mind and go watch the early stuff. it's what he's always done. protip: not early stuff at all, but there's some next-level skipping in the "one hit" vid.
fincher showed his greatness early by keeping mick from dancing in "love is strong"

i'm trying to decide if i danced like that at a club if it would make me look cocksure and badass or if it would make me look insane or if it would be like every other time i dance at the club and it would just make me look old.
― balls, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 23:00 (twelve years ago) link
only heard 'memo to turner' v. recently and not overly familiar with jones-era stones -- checking it out
i thought about voting for undercover! (and one hit!) but didn't.
― mookieproof, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 23:00 (twelve years ago) link
he always has had pretty good footwork, it's just the rest of his body is so completely out of control I think
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 23:01 (twelve years ago) link
oh yeah and Undercover...I don't dig it really at all.
mick don't care if you think he looks foolish
so it kind of works
― mookieproof, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 23:02 (twelve years ago) link
the influence of drugs on Jagger's decision is way overstated

yeah if anything drugs would help, lol

dude was with the exception of Watts by far the most sober person in the band. Ahmet Ertegun's memoir has a couple of anecdotes depicting Jagger acting hammered for the purpose of extracting info from sources.
― Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 23:06 (twelve years ago) link
yeah Mick seems too much like he's working very hard to BE a certain way, that getting fucked up on drugs/alcholol would to him put that in jeopardy somehow. I think we'd know a very different Mick if he had had substance problems of any note.

Jagger's the kind of guy who works out income after VAT on cocktail napkins.

jagger's the kind of guy that when you ask him his favorite stones songs always lists their biggest hits and when you ask him his fave stones albums always lists their best sellers. pure business.

look at his shithouse answer re Mick Taylor's tenure
― Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 23:16 (twelve years ago) link
well, balls, to be fair to him he TWICE mentioned "Sway" and "Moonlight Mile" in the '95 Wenner interview -- songs that, as he admits, aren't well known to the public but loved by Stones fans.
