keefa I just watched the latest video on rs.com and realized just how awesome the stones really are. I mean of course I realized this before, but the sheer amount of INGENIOUS songs they have written consistantly over the years is incomparable to any other artist. They are peerless. YCAGWYW, Let's Spend the Night Togeather(to name a few), all of these songs I haven't listened to lately but GOD DAMN they are great songs -if you really listen to the opening piano in LSTNG or the opening horns in YCAGWYW, the rump shaking horns towards the end of Loving Cup etc. etc.. The stones have also created such varied music, rock n' roll, punk, gospel, soul, blues, reggae, country, and so on. There is such depth to the songs too, not just two guitars and some drums, but innovative music with many different instruments, they are not afraid to experiment and If they think a song needs something they will add something and it is not just a simple doodling to support the song, it is actually played uniquely and origionally. Nowdays where a bands image is totally fabricated, the Stones were actually COOL. They rocked. And still do.

I am actually somewhat resentful that the stones are so good because I can't listed to any other bands without feeling some level of dissapointment

mac_daddy in my opinion, "You Can't Always Get What You Want" is the greatest rock 'n roll song ever written.
