there songs aren't that great
mick jagger is annoying
mick jaggers voice isn't really that great
mick jagger has a annoying show now(could have just been a doc tho..not sure but either way).. and him and his daughters were singing on it and non of them could sing at all.. there were just random mouse liek sounds and random 'ooohs' and 'yeas' coming out of jaggers mouth it was so stupid.
that other guy in the band.. the drunk one.. ew i don't get it.. he also isn't that great...
there songs aren't overly great... but i can understand why people would like there songs..
there old now.. and they shoudl realize that... there still milking the cow.. only the cow has been dead for years.. they've milked bessy dry... *crise* poor cow.
this band really buggers me..

anyways i know i shall get jumped all over for this.. but hell its all just MY opinion and we all know how well my thoughts are welcomed around here.

Blah, whatever.

Rolling Stones = Orgasm.

Pretty much my favourite artists ever. I am intrigued to what the re-released "Exile on Mainstreet" album is going to sound like as apparently Mick Jaggers voice has been digitally remastered to sound clean.

Saw them in concert a couple of years ago, absolutely brilliant show. Mick Jagger looks like a corpse but has the energy of a 12 year-old. Keith Richards got to sing a couple of songs and his voice is irresistible.

Favourite track is probably Gimmie Shelter.

They're easily among my favourite ever artists too. I actually listen to their 70s material more than the 60s stuff, but that's more because all I have of the latter are Beggar's Banquet, Let It Bleed and Aftermath. Those three, Sticky Fingers, Exile On Main Street, Some Girls and half of Goat's Head Soup have been convincing enough for me down the years though.

My favourite song of theirs changes from day to day, but at the minute it's probably this one;

^ One those songs that just has to played really, really loud.

Thats^some good stuff BullDog! I had to go and listen to some Stones after hearing it.
A couple of songs I have to listen to when I go through my collection is,
Gimme Shelter.
Under My Thumb.
and my favorite, Your Love Is Strong.
Richards guitar parts are just so damn good, and I love the way the Stones incorporated the harmonica into their music.

dude you don't even like the stones.. haha

i have taste.. but my taste i will admit isn't liked much..

Urban Hat€monger ? · 04-05-2006, 01:01 PM

I don`t think your taste is that bad , granted I remember you making me listen to that godawful dragonforce song & a few suspect 80s bands , but other than that I can think of much worse things to listen to than what you do.

And why do you keep saying I don`t like the Stones

TheBig3 · 04-05-2006, 01:34 PM

With all the name changes around here, I don't really know who sittingbehindyou, madeinNY, and sabrinah became, but whoever you are (its really just a conglomerate of bullet posting lounge lizards to me) I have to ask why some of those things matter at all? I mean I know that theres a large peice of the global population that dislikes things for stupid reasons, but their old? And you don't like a documentry that Jagger was focused on?

What do either of those things have to do with their music? The other things you listed were in fact subjective points that I'll entertain (though it might be nice to go into why their annoying.) but seeing as this looks like the most work you've put into a post recently, I won't ask too much.

Am I also out of line thinking that if you didn't like a band, then just don't post in that thread rather than post negitivly? Or if you're going to post negitivly, at least throw them a bone in some manner by mentioning one thing you like?

This isn't me attempting to decree rules, im literally asking how you guys feel about that.

I just don't like there sound, and i don't like the band members as people.. or as the people that are shown to the media... and in the doc he couldn't sing for ****.. it was so funny.

one thing i like about them.. they still have the guts to keep going.
I respect them only because other great bands to come after words were inspired by them, and very much influenced by them.. other then that theres nothing.

TheBig3 · 04-05-2006, 03:18 PM

So it doesn't seem impressive to you that they turned out a pretty decent album this past year?

It seems it's always overlooked.

Song writing is alright.. but still the song isn't great is there isn't a voice to back it up.. much like..

working class hero - john lennon..

that there is a great song.. the writing is amazing.. but john lennons voice just doesn't cut it for me.. he is a great singer just not in that song. and to me thats what the stones are like all of the time.
