Coinflip on this one. Went with PIB because it makes a better punk remake.

As a year zero punk I’ve always made it a point of honour to hate the Rolling Stones but bizarrely these four songs are the only Stones songs I’ve ever liked

“Gimme Shelter” for sure. Never liked “Paint It Black” as much as the consensus and “Gimme Shelter” is one of their very best. Also went with “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” over “Sympathy of the Devil” but I think that’s closer.

Sympathy For the Devil was my favorite song the last time I had a favorite song. Gotta give it the nod over all.

My Stones #2 is probably Miss You.

“Miss You” is great and underrated, disappointed it finally lost.

Nothing will ever beat Merry Clayton’s backing vocals on Gimme Shelter. Unequivocal GOAT. Gives me goosebumps every time I hear this.

Here we go with the finals. I think this is an easy choice and expect it to show as much but I’ll say again that the Rolling Stones are the GOAT.
