Hmmmm, I will let you know in 7 minutes and 57 seconds...

Curious...which 2 songs held that title previously?
and is this strictly for the 2 lead-off songs, or any 2 consecutive
songs on an album?

There is a lot to unpack here....
2 songs that held it previously? I never thought about it until that 70-degree day as I enjoyed Hackney Diamonds while driving home.
But now I think it's the best 1-2 lead-off punch from any Stones album, bar none.

The contrast between the end of UC and that Twangy beginning of SWH is sonically very cool, indeed.

You know that point when you are listening to the Grammy-winning Hackney Diamonds on your earbuds, and the gummies kick in? You are just digging the shit out of it, then all of a sudden, you forget what's next as Driving me too Hard kicks in. You still have three amazing Stones songs to come. That's fun right there. This album is a masterpiece!
