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

haha oh i know, doesn't necessarily mean anything, but i'm reading tea leaves over here.

some bold soul should poll 'singles released 20 years after the band/artist's debut'

whoa

YES! almost voted for it, was deeply relieved it didn't show up on most hated tracks, have yet to pull it off at karaoke, will never stop trying

GREAT SONG! TOO LOW! then again, i didn't vote for it.

i will be your knight in shiiiiining armo, coming to yoah emotional rescue...

have yet to pull it off at karaoke, will never stop trying

same here

their most talking heads moment in so many ways

Yes! I didn't vote for it either but it's fucking awesome

One of my most hated tracks.

someone doesn't believe in romance!

god i hope 'mother's little helper' coming in at what is increasingly looking just ridiculously low is a sign of just how many bj era tracks are ahead and not a sign of how many voters think this band basically begins w/ altamont

One of my most hated tracks.

why, alfred? is it the product of a vitamin deficiency? poor parenting?

Vitamin B-12 to build up my tolerance for slap bass and Mick's Sylvester the Cat impersonation.

the little sax-guitar call=and-response during the fadeout is so perfect

13 of my 20 are Brian Jones era

this band basically begins w/ altamont
