It isn't horrible, but it is probably overrated.

Whoawhoawhoa!!

'Start Me Up'! 'Hang Fire'! 'Little T&A'! 'Slave'! 'Heaven'! 'Waiting on a Friend'!

I like some of those songs, and I probably owe the album a fresh listen (it's been quite a few years), but I don't think it is good enough to justify its rep of the last good Stones record.

The last good Stones albums were Dirty Work and A Bigger Bang, so don't worry!

Yeah, the last good Stones album was A Bigger Bang!

(before that it was Tattoo You, though.)

I've listened to five Stones albums today, and this is the first "bad" one, IMO

"All About You," "Dance (pt 1)," and the title track are OK (I'm not big on that disco bassline in rock songs, but that's my problem). But most of the others are.... not good

It's unexpected b/c the two albums that flank it in their discography are very strong

noooo i love this one

I can't get with anyone who doesn't love "Summer Romance," which should've been a top five single. The three-guitar attack, CHarlie's drumming, Jagger's insolent delivery -- man. "Let Me Go" and "Where the Boys Go" almost as good.

Sorry!

I'd classify ER as "good to great album with terrible lead single."

honestly the only thing on here i don't care for is "Down in a Hole"

like "Indian Girl" is kind of terrible but damn it it hasn't grown on me over the years.

"Indian Girl," "Down in the Hole," and the title track are the duds, yeah.

*damn if it hasn't

nah I fuck w the title track

"youwillbemineyouwillbemineyouwillmemineallmine"

ch-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-ah-ah-ah-ah-g-a-h-h-h-h-h

re Indian Girl if it wasn't for Jagge's smarm and the dumb lyrics this would sound great on Dylan's PG & BTK soundtrack (which i love too btw)

Played the title cut for my wife and she said, "Mick Jagger is one of the last people you should call if you need emotional rescue."

Lol

true also he probably charges an exorbitant fee

i wish there were more bands that just blatantly ripped off that some girls thru tattoo you run. maybe you have to have been the stones for fifteen years to pull it off.
