The radio station Q104.3 is playing "The Top 1,043 Rock Songs of All Time." So far today I've heard classics by Bob Dylan, the Beatles, Queen, the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, the Who, Tom Petty, Elton John, the Police, Billy Joel, Rush, and the Allman Brothers Band. No better way to end the weekend for me!

It's no secret how much hard work and talent goes into asian pop -- choreography, vocals and instrumentals are meticulously honed to the top-notch standards.

Make it a time machine -- the karaoke version of it was dated 1965 =)

Spoiler: More Info

Actually, The Verve negotiated rights to use a sample from this recording, but some legal trouble with Rolling Stones management still ensued.
To their credit, Keith Richards said: "If the Verve can write a better song, they can keep the money."
In April 2019, Jagger and Richards signed over all publishing rights for the song to The Verve.

The Sesame Fever album: Sesame Fever, Doing the Pigeon, Rubber Duckie and my MOST favorite Trash!
