"I can't no satisfaction" hit a chord for the era of BS politics like we have today of Biden or Trump. Stones cut through that to show it smelled the same just in different marketing packages. Gritty multi- millionaires now!
After all these years, no matter how busy I am, if Gimme Shelter starts playing on the radio, I always stop and listen from beginning to end. One of the few songs that I have never gotten at least a little bit tired of.
@@garymacdonald2549it's definitely infectious. I don't know how Keith thinks in how much he and Mick want their songs to grab our attention, but they sure have gone beyond what they may have anticipated. I think there's no doubt their creativity's natural, which of course can't be bought.
@@tristancarver734 Well said..... Very well said. Two humans cross paths and create this brilliance that illuminates our lives. It's a rare occurrence.
The Rolling Stones have written so many songs about beauty, youth,emotions,love addictions,gospel, ambitions ,high tech low tech. They sure know what they're talking about & better still they sure do have the finger on the pulse especially on how the world turns us around. I have been here for many decades & I Love the Rolling Stone's. God Bless you guys you truly are amazing. Thank you. 😊🌎👍👏💯💞✌️
Where is Satisfaction? It was so hot when released that top 40 radio stations chose to move their usual top20 .release dates ahead by several days. Response from their listeners demanded that the song be immediately moved to the number 1 slot.
If you love great songs, if you know music and life has a meaning to you ,then you will agree the rolling stones is the best rock group ever to inhabit this planet earth. You should talk about the best 50 songs because whatever they release turns gold.
Everything they release turns gold? I gotta dispute that. They made 6 or 7 terrible studio albums. I don’t agree that they’re the best rock group of all time either. that belongs to The Beatles Now, with that being said, The Rolling Stones are a highly influential GREAT band. They’ve made significant contributions to the world. I like them and I admire them.
Satisfaction goes beyond its considerable musical merit straight into the root of rock. It made explicit what was on the minds of my contemporaries when it arrived. Why is it, in the dawn of this age of women’s reproductive freedom, that I still can’t get laid? Sex was fraught, frankly dangerous, just before that moment and that idea continued to shape attitudes long after.
"" Shattered "" Ubdercover of the night"" 2000 years"" Gimme Shelter"" Shes so cold"" Harlem shuffle"" and Cant you hear me knocking "" are all the best songs also "" Wild Horses""
This is the best live version of this song I've seen. Although the Stones have been playing arenas for decades they are at their best in a small venues like this IMO. I love Ron Wood but...damn Mick Taylor is fantastic, he was probably 20 years old at the time. Keith Richards of course is an alien.
With out a doubt one of the greatest musicians ever, transcending brilliantly through generational changes like no other, the narrator said it best when he mentions you instantly know its the Stones and what song 2 seconds in!! Long live the Kings!!
Absolutely no way could I choose my favourites. It changes from hour to hour. Has done all my 70 years. We are all different & have our personal preferences.
The Rolling Stones are larger than life and a league of their own. They will forever be the greatest rock 'n roll band in the world and, indeed, in history. Impossible to give a top-10, though I really like your choices and explanation.
The Rolling stones have no best 10 songs. All their songs are best among themselves. Fantastic rock n roll wiz...soft, hard, country, blues, Cubano, reggae, black and blue, jazz, ballards, you name it...all genres except Afro rhumba or afro Cuban. However they are the greatest in all ramifications. Most of all the longest running and consistent band of all times. Long live the Stones. God bless them for releasing the music locked up in their veins and brains.❤❤❤
The Netherlands Me born in 1946. I would still not be able to mention which is the best Rolling Stones record. Just for 1 reason: they are all.....the best!!!!. Not any band could bring out more and better songs over a lifetime!!. Simply the best.
Yes, I do! They are acompany me for more than 60years in my life. Sometimes there songs make me feel old., make me cry. All these songs are burned in my Haert and Soul for as long I still have left. I picked the following songs for my funeral, SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL, WILD HORSES and I'm GOING Home by 10 YEARS AFTER!!! My love for everybody, Willy from Amsterdam♐🎸❤
Danke für die tolle Vorstellung der zehn besten bekanntesten Songs, die ich sehr liebe...👌 da ich ALLE mag, gibt es für mich keinen speziellen Favoriten...es hat mir gefallen... 🎵🎶🎼🎤🎸🎯🔝💯...🌻...
Undercover of the night, shattered, 2000 years she's a rainbow, can't you hear me knocking, also waiting on a friend, and wild horses, and before they make me run, also she's my little T&A
Gimme Shelter has been my favorite since I first heard it decades ago. I believe every song on the list deserves to be there, but when I think about satisfaction not being there I wish the list goes to 11.
Geez, the remaining wankers known as the Glimmer Twins are still raking in tons of pounds sterling even though they have been nothing more than parodies of themselves for decades. P.T. Barnum was right, "There's a sucker born every minute". The group. once billed as the anti-establishment long hairs that no self-respecting parent would let their daughter marry, have become filthy rich and it's now Sir Mick. Brian is rolling over in his grave. (How come no Sir Keef, the British East india Company began the opium trade.)
My brother would start singing that when his kids didn't get what they wanted. In time, as soon as he started singing, they would leave the room or drop the subject and plead for him to stop singing
I’m huge fan from a very long time ago and I’m still learning how to play this song and I’m really enjoying this is a great album Angle is my favorite Thank s
Thank you stones for everything your impression on British culture is immense since the early 60s you gave us hope, inspiration and peace of mind I'm a Beatles fan but i respect what you gave us and what is to come let it out stones keep giving a message
At the age of 14 I started to like foreign music and the Beatles became my favorite. The whole wall of my room was covered with beatles posters. But then a friend introduced me to The Rolling Stones tapes. From then on, I changed my direction. My room was filled with posters of The Stones, I left the beatles behind. Now I'm 53 years old from Indonesia, no longer actively enjoying music but the memories of The Stones remain. Now it's time to think about eternal life in the hereafter by doing good. My Favorite songs, I agree with the list and I add some: Moonlight Mile, Sweet Virginia, Little Queenie, many more
Thank you for watching! Sounds like your room went through a rock 'n roll makeover! The Stones vs. The Beatles - the ultimate music room debate! Keep It Rolling! 🙌💪😀 Warm greetings from Bandung - Indonesia. 😉🎶✨💕
"Sympathy for the Devil" is simply brilliant in every respect. An important part of "Gimme Shelter' not mentioned is that despite the storms and floods, rape and murder in the end "love is just a kiss away". Taken together, the songs convey an important message: evil exists, but love can conquer evil.
In the 60's you were either for the beatles or the rolling stones, for me it was a no brainer and when i saw them play at Rhounday Park Leeds there was no doubt I was watching the best rock band in the world and i could not believe mick's energy. I am now 67 and i still love the rolling stones.
So many to consider. In my opinion, Sister Morphine is incredible. Not the greatest hit, but incredible. Midnight Rambler. Monkey Man. Brown Sugar. You Can't Always Get What You Want. Dead Flowers. 5 fantastic albums that ended with Exile, a period of white hot genius. SO much fantastic before that, a lesser amount after. But that period defined my musical bedrock. Live With Me. Loving Cup. Shine a Light. at least 20 more.
10. Honky Tonk Woman 9. You can’t always get what you want 8. Under my thumb 7. Sympathy for the devil 6. Start me up 5. Brown Sugar 4. Angry 3. Can’t you hear me knocking 2. Tumbling dice 1. Gimme Shelter
Amazing and thought provoking. I keep thinking satisfaction. Should be at the top but even listed. But purely socially and Historically this essay. Seems to say to me The 60s started with Optimism of I want to hold your hand ended with. Pragmatic reality of "Give me Shelter".If America owed the 50's,Britain took the 60's .
Great post. I like how the part with Keith Richards on the talk show gets technical, but the post doesn't lose the thread of how urgent and creative these were. I haven't got to no. 1 yet. But it has to be "Satisfaction"I hear there the London drollness and campy mixed feelings the best of their lyrics contain. That can be true when you, 5 guys with instruments help define and record the times. And the Recording Angel also writes, " so what can a poor boy do, 'ceot to sing for a rock n roll band?"...
Thank you for your kind words! I'm really glad you enjoyed the part with Keith Richards on the talk show. It's important for me to keep the post engaging while still highlighting the technical aspects. And yes, "Satisfaction" is an absolute gem, filled with London drollness and campy mixed feelings. I hope you enjoy the rest of the countdown!
@@RockinRollinOne Well yes. Ever since my neighbor gifted me with Between the Buttons, so about when I was 15 y o I have heard the rocking and writing, rolling, no moss growing Rolling Stones. I'm now 70 y o. The years run together. But when it comes to what song I've enjoyed most, likely heard most, and after some hopeful deciphering, lyrics I enjoy most it's probably Satisfaction. Granted: Gimme Shelter, Salt of the Earth, Street Fighting Man and You Can't Always Get... are advanced ballads and stories made into music. I believe the lyrics got more complex and colorful once the boys heard enough Beatles, Donovan, Beach Boys, Hendrix, Zappa, Dylan and others. Aftermath came seemingly out of nowhere but all this creative furor and friendly competition made for beautiful results. Thanks for the reply.
Yes Gimme Shelter one of my tops so many i do agree with Jumping Jack Flash Wild horses Brown Sugar Happy and all their early r and b work Theyre simply the best..
Their songs are all Great.The Rolling Stones are a Living Legend.I saw them at their 50th Anniversary in 2012 at Hyde Park.In my eyes, there are another Groups that are Living Legends. They are the Beatles,and Led Zeppelin.❤️.
The last song on "Sticky Fingers", is an incredible 'lane change' from Rock & Roll to "Rock Opera". "Moonlight Mile" is a fantastic collaboration between The Stones and a Symphony Orchestra. Just Remarkable.
Ich habe Stones Geschichte seit 1969, als wir im Musikunterricht Let it bleed hörten. Seit dem hatte ich immer irgendwelche Lieblingslieder von Stones: Let it bleed Love in Vain dann Last Time Honky Tonk Women Let spend Have you seen your brother... Let it loose Rocks off Brown s.... Thats how strong.. Jumping Jack... Angie Ruby Th. Straycat b... Satisfaction Sitting on a fence No Expact. 😊
I would add "Can't Always Get What You Want" and remove "Paint It Black," but a darned good list. #1 was what it should be..."Gimme Shelter." It's a Top 3 song in human history. And you included "Angie," "Wild Horses," and "Beast of Burden," which should all be there too, so you did a nice job. Some that I would have in my Top 10.. I mentioned Can't Always Get What You Want, but would add in Loving Cup, As Tears Go By, She's a Rainbow, Dead Flowers, and Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker). The Stones wrote great rock and roll, but wrote some of the most beautiful slow songs of any band EVER too. I was always a Beatles fan more when I was younger, but have come to love the greatness of The Stones.
Wow.... Echt schwer bei so viel Qualität.... Unglaubliche Songs dabei..... Ich war bei fast 40 konzerten....❤ Abe midnight Rampler... Winter.... Paint it
Wish I could have seen them in a small venue just after Sticky Fingers was released - 71 or so. I heard Mick say in an interview that he was extremely cocky and sneering at that time - felt invincible.
gimme shelter is killer as is wild horses and some girls all the top 10 songs really put the stones as the premier rock group and keith as the major guitarist oh the 60's and mid 70's
It is hard to argue with this list! And in particular, that fact that the most overplayed tune of all time, "Satisfaction" is not on the list! I had #1 & #2 switched around but his arguments changed my mind! You watch live performances of Gimme Shelter and the POWER and RAW EMOTION in those performances is incredible, and moving!
'Time waits for no one' , 'She's a Rainbow' , 'Moonlight Mile' , 'Miss You' , 'Shattered' . 'Start Me Up' . 'Waiting on a Friend' , 'Hang Fire' , 'Neighbours' , 'No use in Crying' , 'Anybody Seen My Baby'.... Many songs that I listen to in my top ten. Everyone will have a personal list,is the reality of decades at the top of the charts.
Who decided which Stones songs were the 10 best? Jumping Jack Flash and Can’t You Hear Me Knocking are 2 of my favorites but, there are plenty of others.
I can think of so many better songs from their earlier albums...Can't you hear me knockin for sure. Bitch, Monkey man, etc...Even Parachute Woman and Get Off My Cloud are superior.
I just put on time waits for no one❤❤❤ and I was just marveling at the beauty of the Rolling Stones at that time with Mick Taylor which you overlooked completely and who was lauded as too good a guitarist to be playing with the Rolling Stones having played with John Mayall and the bluesbreakers a band which all the greatest of the British guitarist had played with rather.❤ I think back to the comments of Rolling Stones fans under the song on RUclips time waits for no one and you will see comments like the most beautiful song or a beautiful amazing song❤❤❤ so again I reiterate how could you have overlooked this masterpiece which to me is the most beautiful rolling stone song of all time with the greatest musicianship that they ever experienced under the great guidance of Mick Taylor who left the band because he was not given the credit that was due for what he did😢😢 and sadly you are one of those people overlooking the genius and masterful performances of Mick Taylor while with the Rolling Stones😢😢😢
Well, The Stones have so many great songs that ten are not enough. For me, Satisfaction and Ruby Tuesday must have been in this countdown. I would take Angie and Can’t You Hear Me Knocking out, although both are great songs. For the other eight songs, I totally agree. The music of The Rolling Stones is magic, if magic exists. Great Video!
Can you remember “Winter”? Anyone. “Angie” “Can you hear the music”. All from Goats Head Soup. The last Jimmy Miller produced album. Personally enjoyed “it’s only rock & roll”, produced by Mick & Keith, the Glimmer twins. Sad decline when Taylor & Miller left. Some Girls was excellent. Downhill, imo, since then.
@@matthewlacey5307. Always have loved Winter. Seems to be kind of obscure in that it seems many fans don’t know it. Also as mentioned above Can You Hear the Music? Another great song. ❤
Born in 1950, I lived through this incredible period in history...and this video captured so much of what has stood the tests of time. A great video!
Thanks...Well said! Glad you enjoyed it!
1951 here.
❤🎉😂❤😊😅😊
Many thanks to the team that
Put this together. Well Done.👍
I’m glad Keff cleaned himself up
So many incredibly crafted songs.
Mercy, mercy
The last time
And many many many many more ❤
Sheer sheer sheer genius.
Hit a chord with the mood -of the moment and time- of the publjc - it's a hit... Rebels of the Spirit. "I can't no satisfaction" hit a chord for the era of BS politics like we have today of Biden or Trump. Stones cut through that to show it smelled the same just in different marketing packages. Gritty multi- millionaires now!
Mercy Mercy is not a stones song it's a Cover
Love that countdown. Need a top 20. They have so many. Start me Up, satisfaction,.. They are all great
My personal number one: Sweet Virginia❤
Many great song for sure ! I find myself listening to Gimme Shelter over and over and am always awed by it.
The best. It should be the anthem of Viet Nam
After all these years, no matter how busy I am, if Gimme Shelter starts playing on the radio, I always stop and listen from beginning to end. One of the few songs that I have never gotten at least a little bit tired of.
Gimme Shelter & Sympathy fo the Devil the greatest of all time (((The Rolling Stones)))

You can’t always get what you want has to be there. Agree Gimme Shelter is #1 ❤
Their live shows are unmatched.
The Stones are an incredulous pack of wolves in rock and roll…Rock on
How about ‘Satisfaction’ an iconic guitar riff that everybody recognize, probably the most famous rock song ever!
Gotta agree, my favorite R&R riff of all time. And, from what I've read, Keith came up with it in a dream.
Satisfaction goes beyond its considerable musical merit straight into the root of rock. It made explicit what was on the minds of my contemporaries when it arrived. Why is it, in the dawn of this age of women’s reproductive freedom, that I still can’t get laid? Sex was fraught, frankly dangerous, just before that moment and that idea continued to shape attitudes long after.
It was Ottis Redding’s not only favorite Stones song but his favorite song ever 😊👍….
"" Shattered "" Ubdercover of the night"" 2000 years"" Gimme Shelter"" Shes so cold"" Harlem shuffle"" and Cant you hear me knocking "" are all the best songs also "" Wild Horses""

Absolutely no way could I choose my favourites. It changes from hour to hour. Has done all my 70 years. We are all different & have our personal preferences.

Since their formation in 1963👍
Agreed! And I'm 90! Been with them from the beginning...
Very well done and thought provoking. Certainly the Stones are no. 1.

The Rolling Stones are larger than life and a league of their own. They will forever be the greatest rock 'n roll band in the world and, indeed, in history.
Impossible to give a top-10, though I really like your choices and explanation.
RIP Charley. You made PAINT IT BLACK better than it already was.
The Rolling stones have no best 10 songs. All their songs are best among themselves. Fantastic rock n roll wiz...soft, hard, country, blues, Cubano, reggae, black and blue, jazz, ballards, you name it...all genres except Afro rhumba or afro Cuban. However they are the greatest in all ramifications. Most of all the longest running and consistent band of all times. Long live the Stones. God bless them for releasing the music locked up in their veins and brains.❤❤❤
I agree. You could have 10 people list their 10 best and probably have 10 different lists....

Me born in 1946. I would still not be able to mention which is the best Rolling Stones record. Just for 1 reason: they are all.....the best!!!!. Not any band could bring out more and better songs over a lifetime!!. Simply the best.
yes indeed thats why theyre the greatest
Far out!!!!
F-a-a-r-r Out!!!
They're one of the few, if not the only band, that's remained relevant during their whole career.
Pure Genius.
U2 is on that list.
Yes, I do! They are acompany me for more than 60years in my life. Sometimes there songs make me feel old., make me cry. All these songs are burned in my Haert and Soul for as long I still have left. I picked the following songs for my funeral, SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL, WILD HORSES

MIDNIGHT RAMBLER, & CAN U HEAR ME KNOCKING !! LOVBE & LET IT BLEED !!
Out of time, Time is on my side, As tears go by and Right on Baby...my favourites. Let's be honest, they're all pretty damn good though.
chut, don't speak about Brian Jones and Mick Taylor !!

При всём уважении к чужому мнению для меня на первом месте остаётся PAINT IT BLACK
Goes to 11. I see what you're doing there.
I'll raise Stonehenge on the stage a foot, and say cheers to " The Tap."
The Rolling stones very best band all the band members very best very best video about the band information
Nothing compared to YOU CANT ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT esp LONDON SCHOOL BOYS CHOIR
Thanks for the extended studio video shots for Sympathy and Gimme Shelter ... definitely the Greatest Song Ever!
ABSOLUTLEY GREAT PICS ALL MY FAVORITES!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Absolutely great. Many thanks ❤
Pretty much agree. Its great music that will live on for years to come in my mind atleast.
"You Can't Always Get What You Want" should be in any top 10 Stones songs in my humble opinion anyways.
You can't always get what you want. See? Merry Christmas from Thailand. I hope you spend the day in the company of people who appreciate you.

Good choice. Gimme Shelter fantastic. There are so many fantastic söngs from the greatest rock'n roll band of all time.

Great choice...., The Rolling Stones, the best thing ever to happen on our planet.......

Gimme shelter bloody hair raising unbelievable rock n roll thanks stones you saved my soul
It's not possible to say, it's a matter of mood. But the most special to me who had listen to the Stones from the beginning is Painted Black.
Paint It Black
Really?
Also dead flowers 😊 well really u could go on and on
But definitely greatest rock and roll band of all time
Gimme Shelter truly was 1969 and without a doubt the best of the Stones.
I wish they would play more of their songs on the radio
Thanks for including either Monkey Man or Can't you hear me knocking ... both classics
I agree The Testament of time the greatest rock and roll band in the world
good tunes, but not really great
Rarely do they become as inspired as on Gimme Shelter
Which by the way is not the greatest song of all time, but the greatest RS one
Gimme shelter greatest song ever, period.
Best intro ever!
Great video and comments , yes , they are all great songs but it's hard to leave Satisfation out and Brown Sugar also deserves a mention.
THE best Band ever ROLLING STONES ‼️💎💎💎💎💎

yes but written by Brian Jones and apparently Jones wasn't a Stone !!
Play With Fire
Brian Jones started the band!!! He could play over 20 instruments very well--- It's a shame what happened--

Thank you and agree totally
dog123 In another decade Satisfaction was voted Top Rock song of all time. My favorite though is Monkey Man. Let it bleed version.
The last song on "Sticky Fingers", is an incredible 'lane change' from Rock & Roll to "Rock Opera". "Moonlight Mile" is a fantastic collaboration between The Stones and a Symphony Orchestra. Just Remarkable.
The same with Ruby Tuesday--
Sister Morphine
Spider to the Fly
Yes, moonlight mile😊
The stones have literally lasted and hopefully will last the test of time! I really enjoy their concerts.
Heart of Stone and Fool to Cry
Almost Hear You Sigh
That's how strong my love is.
TY FOR THIS INFO !!
Surely " Start me up " intro riff must be up there .. And its an awesome song !!
It’s Only Rock’n Roll and I like it - what a great list that y’all put together - two thumbs up
Nice list, not sure if I'd put "Paint It Black" in the Top Ten and leave out "Satisfaction", "Under My Thumb", and "Street Fighting Man".
Did you mention KUMPPIN JACK )flash .. it's a gas
OPPS JUMPIN JACK FLASH!

I think their finest moment is Time Waits For No One from theit Its Only Rock n Roll album, Mick Taylor absolutely nails it
Yes, ‘Time Waits For No One’ has been my fav Stones track for years, Jumping Jack Flash the runner up.
Just too many to list-- Mick Taylor is in my top 20 favorite guitarists!!!!!!

Stones are the GOAT.
Tive o grande prazer de os ver quatro vezes em Portugal. Obrigado
What would life be without the greatest band the STONES .?
My favorite band
excellent review of the Stones best discology...I totally agree with the number 1 choice.
Ich habe Stones Geschichte seit 1969, als wir im Musikunterricht Let it bleed hörten. Seit dem hatte ich immer irgendwelche Lieblingslieder von Stones:
Let it bleed
Love in Vain
dann
Last Time
Honky Tonk Women
Let spend
Have you seen your brother...
Let it loose
Rocks off
Brown s....
Thats how strong..
Jumping Jack...
Angie
Ruby Th.

Satisfaction

Gimme Shelter should be the greatest song of all time and it was not only relevant in 1969, it's relevant today.!
I would add "Can't Always Get What You Want" and remove "Paint It Black," but a darned good list. #1 was what it should be..."Gimme Shelter." It's a Top 3 song in human history.
And you included "Angie," "Wild Horses," and "Beast of Burden," which should all be there too, so you did a nice job.
Some that I would have in my Top 10..
I mentioned Can't Always Get What You Want, but would add in Loving Cup, As Tears Go By, She's a Rainbow, Dead Flowers, and Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker).
The Stones wrote great rock and roll, but wrote some of the most beautiful slow songs of any band EVER too. I was always a Beatles fan more when I was younger, but have come to love the greatness of The Stones.
A list without satisfaction is rare...my favorite is Starstar (Starfucke!) because it sounds so wonderfully like Chuck Berry
Muy buen resumen....Incredible the surprise for the No. 1, Is one of my favorites. Thanks !!
Wow.... Echt schwer bei so viel Qualität.... Unglaubliche Songs dabei..... Ich war bei fast 40 konzerten....❤ Abe midnight Rampler... Winter.... Paint it
Wish I could have seen them in a small venue just after Sticky Fingers was released - 71 or so. I heard Mick say in an interview that he was extremely cocky and sneering at that time - felt invincible.
Oh, man.... it's so hard to choose their 10 best tunes...... 'cause they have many, and many, and many great ones!!!!! Stones forever!
gimme shelter is killer as is wild horses and some girls all the top 10 songs really put the stones as the premier rock group and keith as the major guitarist oh the 60's and mid 70's
It is hard to argue with this list! And in particular, that fact that the most overplayed tune of all time, "Satisfaction" is not on the list! I had #1 & #2 switched around but his arguments changed my mind! You watch live performances of Gimme Shelter and the POWER and RAW EMOTION in those performances is incredible, and moving!
Rolling Stones Forever
'Time waits for no one' , 'She's a Rainbow' , 'Moonlight Mile' , 'Miss You' , 'Shattered' . 'Start Me Up' . 'Waiting on a Friend' , 'Hang Fire' , 'Neighbours' , 'No use in Crying' , 'Anybody Seen My Baby'.... Many songs that I listen to in my top ten. Everyone will have a personal list,is the reality of decades at the top of the charts.
“Some Girls”my personal favorite album. Those PortoRican Girls just dying to meet you!
Who decided which Stones songs were the 10 best? Jumping Jack Flash and Can’t You Hear Me Knocking are 2 of my favorites but, there are plenty of others.
I can think of so many better songs from their earlier albums...Can't you hear me knockin for sure. Bitch, Monkey man, etc...Even Parachute Woman and Get Off My Cloud are superior.
@@davidkarr4632 You got that right. 12 by 5 had a lot of great songs.
They have so many great songs, give me shelter is but one but it is one of my favorites.
Great!! ❤❤❤
ROCK ON SAW THEM 1964 GAUMONT THEARTER UK WHAT A NIGHT NEVER FORGET IT
All of them.
🎶💯🙌🤗
Next time you should build up "the hundred best Stone's songs".
you didn't get it wrong, well done (you can't always get what you want) deserves a mention
I just put on time waits for no one❤❤❤ and I was just marveling at the beauty of the Rolling Stones at that time with Mick Taylor which you overlooked completely and who was lauded as too good a guitarist to be playing with the Rolling Stones having played with John Mayall and the bluesbreakers a band which all the greatest of the British guitarist had played with rather.❤ I think back to the comments of Rolling Stones fans under the song on RUclips time waits for no one and you will see comments like the most beautiful song or a beautiful amazing song❤❤❤ so again I reiterate how could you have overlooked this masterpiece which to me is the most beautiful rolling stone song of all time with the greatest musicianship that they ever experienced under the great guidance of Mick Taylor who left the band because he was not given the credit that was due for what he did😢😢 and sadly you are one of those people overlooking the genius and masterful performances of Mick Taylor while with the Rolling Stones😢😢😢
These are all great classic songs.
Well, The Stones have so many great songs that ten are not enough. For me, Satisfaction and Ruby Tuesday must have been in this countdown. I would take Angie and Can’t You Hear Me Knocking out, although both are great songs. For the other eight songs, I totally agree. The music of The Rolling Stones is magic, if magic exists. Great Video!
Thanks!
Oh my lord! Sitting here wasting time,
watching RUclips….all at once……the stones?.! THANK YOU!
Thank you...Glad you like it! 🙏🙌🎶❤️✨💕
Can you remember “Winter”? Anyone. “Angie” “Can you hear the music”. All from Goats Head Soup. The last Jimmy Miller produced album. Personally enjoyed “it’s only rock & roll”, produced by Mick & Keith, the Glimmer twins. Sad decline when Taylor & Miller left. Some Girls was excellent. Downhill, imo, since then.
Bill Nighy when on desert island discs chose two Stones' songs out of the eight pieces of music that could be chosen. One was Winter. Brilliant song
@@matthewlacey5307. Always have loved Winter. Seems to be kind of obscure in that it seems many fans don’t know it. Also as mentioned above Can You Hear the Music? Another great song. ❤
