    Best Rolling Stones song ever?

    For sheer nuance and internal diversity.... Monkey Man is their best work ever....

    at least, that's my opinion.

    What's your pick?

              Thats a hard question because they have so many classic songs. Paint it Black or Wild Horses

                      Arguing this is like arguing what beer is the best. There are a lot of fantastic ones, and what seems the best at the moment, will vary by the moment.

                      But I wonder if people listed their top twenty Stones tunes..... would more than a couple be past 1975?

                          Definitely a great song... one of the only Stones songs I have. I got it because DJ Icey uses it as a sample in one of his breakbeat songs. Wish I could find that Icey track... it's really good.

                              So many great ones it's hard to choose. So I'll go with one less played but still kicks: "She's my little rock n roll"

                                  Sympathy for the Devil is my favorite by them. It was redone by Guns 'N Roses, and that version kicks serious ass, too! Damn I need to hear that song now!

                                            You Can't Always Get What You Want

                                            I saw her today at a reception
                                            A glass of wine in her hand
                                            I knew she would meet her connection
                                            At her feet was her footloose man

                                            No, you can't always get what you want
                                            You can't always get what you want
                                            You can't always get what you want
                                            And if you try sometime you find
                                            You get what you need

                                            I saw her today at the reception
                                            A glass of wine in her hand
                                            I knew she was gonna meet her connection
                                            At her feet was her footloose man

                                            You can't always get what you want
                                            You can't always get what you want
                                            You can't always get what you want
                                            But if you try sometimes you might find
                                            You get what you need

                                            Oh yeah, hey hey hey, oh...

                                            And I went down to the demonstration
                                            To get my fair share of abuse
                                            Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration
                                            If we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse"
                                            Sing it to me now...

                                            You can't always get what you want
                                            You can't always get what you want
                                            You can't always get what you want
                                            But if you try sometimes well you just might find
                                            You get what you need
                                            Oh baby, yeah, yeah!

                                            I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
                                            To get your prescription filled
                                            I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
                                            And man, did he look pretty ill
                                            We decided that we would have a soda
                                            My favorite flavor, cherry red
                                            I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
                                            Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead"
                                            I said to him

                                            You can't always get what you want, no!
                                            You can't always get what you want (tell ya baby)
                                            You can't always get what you want (no)
                                            But if you try sometimes you just might find
                                            You get what you need
                                            Oh yes! Woo!

                                            You get what you need--yeah, oh baby!
                                            Oh yeah!

                                            I saw her today at the reception
                                            In her glass was a bleeding man
                                            She was practiced at the art of deception
                                            Well I could tell by her blood-stained hands

                                            You can't always get what you want

                                                I might have a tune or two from Some Girls ('78) on my top twenty but nothing after that.

                                                  'Can't you hear me knockin' is my personal favorite, greatest guitar riff ever. Other people will think Honky Tonk Woman' is the greatest guitar riff ever.

                                                  Either way, Keith Richards is a bad motherfucker. His solo album sounded much more like vintage Stones that Mick Jaggers did.

                                                        I played guitar in a Toronto area Stones cover band for about 16 years, and its impossible for me to choose a favourite.

                                                        Silver Train, Stray Cat Blues, Sister Morphine, Sweet Virginia - and that's just the "S's".

                                                        I'll choose Before They Make Me Run as my all-time favourite.

                                                        I wasn't looking too good but I was feeling real well "
