Recording Stars Favorite Stones Songs
Sep 6^th, 2008 at 4:28pm

I just read in Goldmine Magazine That one of Chubby Checkers Favorite Songs is One by The Stones Blank Frigging Stare

As quoted "So, what are some of Checker’s favorite songs? You might be surprised. “‘Hello Stranger’ (Barbara Lewis) is my favorite song. That just kills me. And then a Rolling Stones song, ‘Almost Hear You Sigh.’ Some songs just pull on your heart strings, you know?”
Do you know of any Artist's Favorite Stones Songs? You rock!

They interviewed John Popper of Blues Traveler who claimed he was a big Stones fan. Then he said his favorite song was 'Roses On Your Grave'. What a pantload...

SATISFACTION is probably the most performed rolling stones tunes, covered by
Otis Redding, Devo, Gloria Trevi, Alejandra Guzmán, Vanilla Ice, Britney Spears, The Residents, The Supremes, and Cat Power to name a few

there's a (IMO) crappy cover of HONKEY TONK WOMAN by Kidd Rock and Jerry Lee Lewis. you can check it out if you dare here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhJigNH5g9Q

The Grateful Dead has covered these Rolling Stone written songs:
Empty Heart
The Last Time
Satisfaction

it is rumored but unconfirmed that Vince Welnick soundchecked START ME UP in 1994.

Bob Weir and Ratdog have covered
Satisfaction
The Last Time as well as
TANQUERAY co written by the late ivory tickler/blues great johnnie johnson and our own Keith Richards.

The rolling stones and the grateful dead and/or ratdog have both covered
Little Red Rooster
All Over Now
Not Fade Away
Around and Around
Promised Land
(I'm a) Kingbee

there might others i've forgotten

Don't know how credible you think Elton John is, but I did read this:

He was talking about "Something" by George Harrison. Then he said "You know when a record starts on the radio, and it's great, and you think, 'Oh, what is this? What is this? What is this?' The only other record I ever felt that way about was Brown Sugar by the Rolling Stones". Both songs gave him "chills".

This was from a Rolling Stone article in early 2002.

Yes

That's what I'm talking about. Sometimes when an artist covers a song I don't know if they are covering it Because
a. They THINK THEY CAN DO BETTER, AS GOOD OR A DIFFERENT SOUND TO SELL A PRODUCT Blank Frigging Stare

OR b. they were told to do it Ouch!

or c. They like it and what to pay respect Retarded post

or d.they want to get some off the money a great song has brought someone else. :funny
I like to hear about Stones Songs like Checkers and Elton John did, as being reported as sayin this is a "Song I personally like".
We all got favorite songs, I'm sure for interest and example, wonder what Iggy Pop's favorite song is? Is it A Stones Song?
I used Iggy as an example cause he just came to mind.
