Satisfaction: Ten great Stones songs to mark Mick Jaggers 71st birthday

July 26, 2014, 1:34 PM ET

For five decades, he has arguably been the voice of rock and roll. And in that time period, hes gotten no satisfaction, asked for sympathy for the devil, rolled some tumbling dice, offered to show up with a case of wine around 12 with some Puerto Rican girls just dying to meet you, and said if you start him up hell never stop.

And, for the most part, Sir Michael Philip Jagger, known better to you and me as Mick, has lived up to that opening line from the Rolling Stones classic Start Me Up and, well, never stopped. Whether its been with the Stones, acting in movies [anybody remember him playing Australian outlaw Ned Kelly back in 1970?], or doing his solo career [High point: His performances on "Saturday Night Live" in 2012. Low point: It's hard to argue with the video and song "Let's Work" from 1987].

With a track record like his, its hard to imagine Jagger settling down, even as he turns 71 on Saturday. Thats right, kids, it may be hard to imagine that the guy who did this video and was thought to be an agent of the devil is old enough to potentially be your great-grandfather. Well, at least someones great-grandfather, as Jagger became in May. In fact, Jagger and the Stones just completed a 21-date tour in which they played in front of almost 800,000 fans, and are now resting up before heading to Australia and New Zealand for a raft of shows in October and November.

And its tours like that, along with what is said to be a sharp business acumen, that have helped Jagger keep his bank accounts full to the tune of a reported $300 million in net worth.

So, on this day, when Mick will be blowing out 71 candles on his birthday cake, heres one Stones fans completely subjective list of the Ten Best Rolling Stones songs. Submit your comments and let the debate begin.

10. Honky Tonk Women. Never has a gin-soaked barroom queen sounded so enticing.

9. Hand Of Fate. The A.V. Club called this the great lost Stones rocker. You should find it, now.

8. Get Off Of My Cloud. For those times when two really is a crowd.

7. Gimme Shelter. As if you ever need an excuse to listen to Merry Clayton outduel Mick.

6. Brown Sugar. I still wonder how that houseboy sounded just around midnight.

5. Happy. Keith Richards takes the mic from Mick in rebellious glory.

4. Jumpin Jack Flash. Raised by a toothless bearded hag, indeed.

3. Start Me Up. The videos terrible, but its still the greatest song ever to get stuck at No. 2 on the charts.

2. Tumblin Dice. Best enjoyed with a bottle of whiskey. The entire bottle.

1. (I Cant Get No) Satisfaction. Probably the greatest song ever dreamed up by Keith in a Clearwater, Fla. hotel room. And in the morning, the tape had about 30 seconds of music and 45 minutes of Keith snoring.

There are a couple tunes on that list I never ever would reach for at home

and at least one that would cause a radio channel change for me.

And having some experience with the subjects contained therein,

this one deserved a place.

1. 2. 6. 7. 9. 10.

Order:

7. Seriously? Anyone dis Merry Clayton's performance here with MJ? GTFOH
6. Remember, like Free Bird, the songs themselves need to be considered, not what happened to them after they were released. Yeah, fatigue sets in, but...*
10. Two licks of the cowbell and you are there. (*See #6 above)
9. Forget *#6 above. Everybody has heard this song without the burnout.
1. Hey, yeah....
2. Mick owned this when he was young. (*#6 burnout. Probably could live without hearing ti again, but when he did it live, he owned it.)

------
3. Pukeable. Who could ever forget Steve Ballmer and Bill Gates when you hear this one?
4. Burned out badly and not that great
5. Yawn.

 Snippy is thinking that if Uke deletes a thousand posts each that the sight will be restored.
