speedfreakjive I know we are mid-tour, and this question may have been asked here numerous times before this, but what do you think?

I am also unsure as to whether Keith wrote some of the lyrics to certain songs (obviously he wrote his vocal songs' lyrics) like Wild Horses and others.

Anyway, here's my top 10;

1. Beast Of Burden
2. Sway
3. Dead Flowers
4. I Got The Silver
5. Live With Me
6. Ruby Tuesday
7. Winter
8. Heartbreaker
9. Star Star
10.Casino Boogie

and you??>>>>

4.Moonlight Mile
5.She's So Cold
6.Starfucker
7.Jigsaw Puzzle
8.Worried About You
9.She Was Hot
10.Oh No, Not You Again

Winter IMHO

mrhipfl sympathy for sure. "I watched with glee as your kings and queens, fought for ten decades, for the gods they made."

BONOISLOVE "Streets Of Love". It's like dying after making love and going to heaven where you can make love again, all in one tune.

speedfreakjive loads I forgot!
there's too many to Top 10 it maybe,
anyway, what do you think to the statement that the Stones' music is for the vast majority riff-driven, with great melodies rather than lyric-centric?

Saint Sway far too many great ones to list all but I think Jigsaw Puzzle and Sympathy belong on any list
6th November 2006 03:56 PM
texile there are so many because jagger's writing and phrasing is so original...or used to be.
beast of burden is the most raw and emotional....
nothing fancy or cryptic but just real.

'all your sickness, i suck it up -
you throw it all at me, i shrug it off...'
utterly human.

NHStonesfan I know it's a warhorse but 2nd verse of Gimme Shelter

A simile (sp?) followed by a metaphor-great combination
6th November 2006 04:12 PM
NHStonesfan Also It's not Easy from Aftermath-every verse

Holy Shit I never knew that one!


My Dad worked for Poloroid so I always like(d) Star Star and of course Short and Curlies

Jeses this thread could be addicting, I better stop now.

My friends alway acuse me of having a Stones song reference for every situation.
