 Re: Favorite Rolling Stones song?
I have been feeling Beast of Burden recently though I think my top ones would be Angie followed by Gimme Shelter, Sympathy for the Devil, Paint it Black, Under My Thumb and You Can't Always Get What You Want.

 Re: Favorite Rolling Stones song?
But...
1. "Gimme Shelter" 2. "Paint It Black" 3. "Brown Sugar"
It's always these three for me. Generally not a Rolling Stones fan, but these are iconic and/or used in iconic movies, and they're excellent.

Sometimes the 3 most popular are also the best 3 and with The Rolling Stones that is the case. I'm sure some diehard Stones fans would disagree and start listing deep cuts, but they just aren't that band for me. ACDC is kind of the same way. Give me Thunderstruck, Back In Black, Shoot To Thrill, Highway To Hell, etc...

 Re: Favorite Rolling Stones song?
I had their 3 most iconic songs as Gimme Shelter, Sympathy for the Devil and Paint it Black instead of Brown Sugar, though Start Me Up and Satisfaction have as much listens on Spotify as Shelter and Devil. Though, on the Beatles page Here Comes the Sun has twice as much views as any other song, so not sure that's the best measure (Was there a TikTok Here Comes the Sun meme or something?)

 Re: Favorite Rolling Stones song?
Oh yeah I forgot "Sympathy for the Devil". I'd have that in there too, put it fourth.
As for most well-known and iconic songs, "Start Me Up" and "Satisfaction" are definitely the top two.

 Re: Favorite Rolling Stones song?
Here Comes The Sun being the Beatles top song proves they are not in this category lol. I'd guess most people would say Hey Jude or Let It Be for their most popular song. They are deep cut city though. No one would have the same top 5 like with Stones.
