Live perhaps, though Wanna Hold You, UC, and She Was Hot have come off well on stage. Have you not heard "Anyway you look at (sh)it"??? Or stuff from Their Satanic Majesties??? |

Laugh? I Nearly Died. Ultimate miscalculation of audience, on the level of War Baby solo
Let's have an old fashioned Stones record: 10 tracks, six covers, four originals.

No way, "Laugh, I Nearly Died" is one of the best tracks on Bigger Bang. |

See "Ultimate miscalculation of audience." By drama queen.
Another candidate: "Where the boys all go" - cacaphonous forgetting of one's own age *and* miscalculation of audience. Crossfading ruins following excellent "Down in the Hole."

Whatever that Keith thing is called at the end of ABB...oh yes, Infamy, wow what an apt title, he managed to produce something ever worse than "Losing My Touch" and "Thief in the Night" combined, no mean feat! |

This issue has been settled. There are, it appears, two types of Stones fans:
1. Those who know that "Anyway You Look At It" is the worst song the Rolling Stones have ever released; and
2. Those who have not heard "Anyway You Look At It." |

The great thing about "Anyway you look at it" is the bridge part, where, when you're expecting Mick to sing again, Keith's voice comes sliding in seamlessly. You can play this for people and they'll be disappointed by the simple and repetitious lyric, but when Keith comes in they'll go "Wow!" and ask to hear that part again.
The repetitiousness may just be a clever set-up for that surprise moment, lulling you into writing the song off. On the other hand, we always give these guys credit for being smarter than they are.
We can be prejudiced toward "Anyway" because everybody bought the CD single for this previously unheard bonus track. Under high expectations, one moment can't save the song. But if they'd slipped it in as a Beatles-style lullabye at the end of a long new CD, we might all be going "Wow!"
Let's pick on another repetitious lyric instead: "Send it to Me."

here's another one "she saw me coming" !
Good points about "Anyway You Look at It", pretty boring I must say good thing MP3s were already around in 1997!
Wonder what happened to that other B2B outtake, "Everchanging World", it was supposed to be a bonus track in Japan... |

She Saw Me Coming
Sweet Neocon
Awful stuff. |

Thief in the Night has great atmosphere, especially in the one-two punch with How Can I Stop. That's what I meant above about a "lullabye" ending - a little like "Winter" followed by "Can You Hear the Music" on GHS. |

For me at least, it's definitely Dangerous Beauty, followed by She Saw Me Coming. There are some clunkers on Black and Blue and It's Only Rock 'n Roll, but they still maintain the classic Stones vibe, so they don't appear on the worst list. |

1. Winning Ugly
2. Flip the Switch
3. Everything off of Satanic Majesties except: Sing this All Together (the first bit), Citadel, She's A Rainbow, 2000 Man and 2000 Light Years from Home.

"Back To Zero" is the worse song in Stones history. It's not even up for debate!! |

"Too rude" was never one of my favs. "You don't have to mean it" is also kinda silly. I guess I don't particularly care for Keith's raggae type stuff.

Winning Ugly is so obvious.
So i'll go with In another land. |
