Hard for me to choose but I went with Sympathy for the Devil followed closely by Gimme Shelter and Honky Tonk Women. I know I must have forgotten some on the poll, they just have so many great tunes

SHould've included "Other" as an option.
My vote would be "She's A Rainbow". Sentimental reasons.

I have to give a write-in vote...it's "You Can't Always Get What You Want".
I used this song as a "learning tool" for my daughter when she was about 4-5 years old. She would ask and ask and ask for something and I would tell her, "What does Mick Jaggar say?"
and she would just look up with me with sad eyes, "You can't always get what you want..."

I'm not sure I could pick a favorite but I'd say "Dead Flowers", "Faraway Eyes", "Country Honk" and "Can Ya Hear Me Knockin'?" are right up there.

DAMN!
That's like asking what my favorite Buffett or Beatles song is.
Or, to illustrate the point more precisely, which one of your children is your favorite.
I suppose from that list it's "Honky Tonk Women" (which I voted for), but if it were expanded to include ALL Rolling Stones songs, I'd go with "This Could Be the Last Time" and/or "You Can't Always Get What You Want."
My favorite Rolling Stone? WHY, Bill Wyman, of course.

an't You Hear Me Knockin'
When they do it live, Bobby Keyes does a phenomenal sax solo, the best I've ever heard.

I cant believe I forgot Cant Always Get What You Want or Other. My bad. I love Cant You Hear Me Knocking also. I love the beginning of the movie Blow where they are playing that song and showing the cocaine factories.
