Apart from Wild Horses - the lyrics can hardly be beat. Very true I think.

/Edited to add some reasoning/

Angie is a great song Mike, nothing wrong with it.
Wild horses like you say is better, did you know it was recorded with 4 guitars? the main opening guitar is tuned to 'Nashville tuning' , which i think all the strings were tuned up an octave!! and then he used a capo on the 10th fret.
Nice sound, another interesting sound is from 'Street fighting man' , the opening riff was recorded by using a steel string (i think a hummingbird) by keith, he recorded it into a tape machine, then played it back through a mic in a studio but pushed the volume to the top so it overdrove the output sound.

Sorry to bore you all to tears but the stones are my passion, my first rememberd LP was 'It's only Rock'n'Roll' .
