This is a good one.
I'll have to go with Indian Girl.
"Lesson number one, gotta learn while you're young- Life just goes on and on, getting harder and harder."
It's a very depressing tune, but good for a history class. |

Indian Girl is like the sweet taste of cheap tequila mixed with sweat on the naked breasts of a buxom senorita, while Streets of Love is the equivalent of kissing a flat chested bimbo sucking on an Altoid to cover up her puke breath from one too many Zimas. |

here's a good one:
fire on the platter vs being buried alive in a coffin with 3000 fire ants
personally, i'd take the coffin, but that's just me. |

SOL, but calling it 'better' is a case of being damned with faint praise.
I'm still in a state of denial about Indian Girl, in that I cant believe the Stones at that time were capable of releasing such a steaming turd of a song. Part of me thinks its a recording by an imposter that somehow, during the long delays before the album's release, managed to quietly sneak its way on to the end of side 1 when no one was looking... |

I love Indian Girl. Love it. Mariachi horns, Woody on pedal-steel, Mick's Spanishy accent, the cold war/Latin American intrigue -- love it! |

Life just goes on and on getting harder and harder, doesn't it, Gazza?
Indian Girl rules.
Comedy, pathos, horns, bass.
Emotional Rescue = Billy Wyman and His Fabulous Rolling Stones. |

Streetsoflove live is great for the feeling in Jagger, and the silence is awesome live it...
Indian Girl great music, feeling, and over all the lyrics!!! |

Indian Girl?...Man, I was raving about Indian Girl when raving about Indian Girl wasn't cool |

I can't choose! Why did you have to ruin my early morning tea? I'll have to tell Eno to go and count my money. |

Indian Girl was also Nicky Hopkins' swan song with the Stones. just another reason to love the genius that is Indian Girl.
yes i know he appears on TTY but those tracks were recorded much earlier. hmm, or were they, maybe mick just stuck some lyrics on an old backing track and that became the Indian Girl we all know and love, well most of us anyway! |

If they took those daft lyrics and that poncey, faux-Spanish vocal out of it, it would have been very good.
Mick's vocal and lyrics similarly mar the musically excellent title track as well. |

" Indian Girl " is one of the greatest songs ever written / recorded in the very short history of mankind .
Read what others have said over the decades :
"Not only a historical but a musical event. An epic tune. A sweeping, richly detailed portrait [vivid with] Jagger/ Richards' astonishing concern for the humanity of their characters. An awesome achievement!"
--Peter S. Prescott, NEWSWEEK
"Stands at the pinnacle of the musical art. "
--Donald R. Morris, HOUSTON POST
A monumental saga...powerful and stirring. It's an overwhelming experience to listen to " Indian Girl "
--Christopher Lehmann-Haupt, THE NEW YORK TIMES

i've said this before and i'll say it again -
indian girl is the most direct, foreboding political song jagger has ever written.
the sandinistas eventually became exactly what jagger envisioned -
and that line about castro - and jagger's delivery is just magnificent - edgy and sarcastic.
