As the stones begin to get on a little bit, they really need one thing to get is a number one in the US or UK, with downloads so high, it would only take every fan from IORR, RS.com and here to get them in to the top 10! I bought every single from A Bigger Bang, but what would it do for their own confidence, as much as they say they woulden't care either way, to have a number one to break the curse of not having one since the 70's? It would give them confidence, keeping them going, bring them back in to the public eye and therefore making more people aware of the stones. So, I'm not sure if they will release another single in support of Europe '07, but next time they do, we need to pull together and take the stones to number 1. |

As downloads are included in the UK chart positions now, I dont think you even need to release a single to get it charted.
I think the Stones actually had a minor chart entry here a few months ago with a song that had never been released as a single, thanks to a small amount of people downloading it after hearing it played frequently on radio or seeing it as part of an ad on TV. I think it was 'Gimme Shelter' actually. Sales were relatively tiny - maybe 2,000 or so - but still enough to get it charted. |

i highly doubt they are thinking about #1 smash hits at this point...if you know what i mean.
i bet they are thinking more about your 500 dollar front row seat.
but of course i support your idea 100% |

I'd agree with that, only I'd say that its more likely theyre thinking of ways to add an extra zero to the cost of that front row seat |

if i were to consider 5 grand for a stones show....i'm thinking lazy boy chair on the stage with a table stand a 12 pack of beer and food service for the entire show...keiths side. 4 thou for ronnies side.
that sounds reasonable |

Endless blow jobs throughout the evening by Halle Berry alternating with Monica Bellucci would be about the only way to get me to even think about doing that |

i am not partial to either one of those womam...i am thinking jennifer aniston and mariah carey but i don't think i would last more than 15 seconds...so i'll stick with the lazy boy chair idea..bigger bang for my buck. |

When I see the charts, and how much the music that charts sucks IMO, why would anyone, who remotely likes The Stones, want to see them in the charts... It is this very thought process that has driven Jagger over the years, and we get Goddess In The doorway and A Bigger Bang... The good thing about Jagger, is he tries really hard to give it his all all. The bad thing is he tries really hard to give it his all... |

It was Gimme Shelter, it went to #153 on the charts with about 800 downloads. Paint It Black charted on the top 75 a month ago (#70) selling 1,500 digital downloads. |

Ice Cube Tray... The new "Lamp"
