The Rolling Stones go disco in last ditch bandwaggon jumping attempt to save their careers, what with Mick Jagger caterwauling in that godawful falsetto of his? Ugh, ugh, dudder than dud. The only thing possibly worse could have been Emotional Rescue. Cocaine + Bloated Rock Star Egos + Disco = INDESCRIBABLY BAD!!!

I've been driving around in my car to that track for about a week now,and I like it too.Nothing left of the original save Mick's vocals,over that funky minimal Dr.Dre riff.It's great.

Sorry, I missed the bit where it said REMIX. God, this can only be WORSE than the original if the only thing they saved was the vocals... ARGH! Rest of the post stands as written.

Cocaine + Bloated Rock Star Egos + Disco

Kate you gotta study your math better. Cocaine + Bloated Rock Star Egos + Disco =

1. Best Rolling Stones album EVAH, and yes that includes "Exile" or 2. Happy Mondays

I like the idea of something so good (or so awful), you never have to even hear it. ;-)

That godamn Ja Rule Metallica thing has the kind of "you never need to hear it to know" power. This really doesn't although it's certainly the better listen of the two tracks.

I think it sounds better than the original, fwiw.*

*but then I've never been a big Stones fan anyway, though Miss You was always one I liked because I imagined that's what would be playing in the bathroom of Studio 54 as people snorted coke.

Especially since Jagger himself would probably be stumbling around there slurring the words -- though more than likely he'd be saying that insane break from "Emotional Rescue."
