MAD POLL, LOST YER WAY – ILM Artist Poll #16 – The Rolling Stones RESULTS THREAD

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.

englishman tries to pull off james brown and tina turner - you were expecting different results?

Wow, do you think there is a choreographer involved?

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.

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.

he always has had pretty good footwork, it's just the rest of his body is so completely out of control I think

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

the influence of drugs on Jagger's decision is way overstated

*decisions

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.

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.

youtu.be/L8CtWUY7nvg in case anyone has not seen it.

blocked in my country, what are ya some kinda jerk or somethin?

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

otm

try this;

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

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.

Mick is a Mick fan, also a fan of Mick

LOVED that 95 wenner interview fwiw

well, balls,

well there's the goats head contingent

gasp!

so low!

I love this so much

All of a sudden I get the vibe that my whole ballot will be placing

i don't care that it's "minor" and i don't care that it's on Goats' Head Soup. mick & mick kill it on this one.

like "memo to turner", but don't get its goat appeal. attempted dylan? obscurity?

I had a copy of GHS around the time it came out, scratched it up and junked it, never re-bought it, so don't know anything except the hits. That's really good!

Winter's freaking beautiful, imo

"winter" is great (as goats head soup is great), but i didn't vote for it. glad to see it in the results, though.

I love songs (and comic book characters! Hello Stormwatch!) named after winter, so I def want to get acquainted with that one...

VG have you seen Performance? That's where the Memo From Turner video is taken from, it's awesome.

Winter? Oh man it' s gonna be a long night (I love the solo though)

I have never seen Performance, I really should based on that video

meh

My #3--fantastic. Can't complain that's it's not higher, it kind of gets overshadowed by Let It Bleed's ultra-famous songs.

I like it lots but it's a beginning.

wow. almost universally crestfallen so far..but that's what makes horse races!

i am by no means crestfallen, but i am a good deal less enamored of the romantically wounded, unpop bumper-draggers than some of yous.

Iiiiiiiiiiiiii love this song, and I was heartbroken when I realized I couldn't vote for it. I am glad it placed, I realize it was never going to get very high but <3 Keef

This band has an absolute buttload of top shelf material.

and long legs, apparently

Yeah, I shouldn't have said crestfallen--I love all their songs so much that there is a real chasm between the ones that have come so far and my A/A+'s (which I hope to see soon!)

the fact that the winner of Rolling Stones singles poll: post-Tattoo You has already placed doesn't bode well for those of us challop champions of the later eras

oh, i wouldn't necessarily accuse ilx of consistency
