This cover is so good, it was a long time before I knew it was a cover of The Rolling Stones song. This is clearly one of those instances where the cover improved upon the original. Don't you think?

It is funny how such an influential band can sound so tame today. It is also odd to me to listen to The Rolling Stones at all because I really haven't done it all that much. They just aren't as interesting to me as they seem to be to many others. I don't know why, so today I was listening through a couple of their albums to try to understand. This song has got to be my favorite by them and I do like it A LOT.
I'm sure part of the problem is I have like 3 albums and they have released like 5,000,000 at this point. Okay… so 25 albums. Still. I need a "best of" or perhaps some suggestions or something. I feel like I must be missing out because they are so revered and loved… so undeniably influential, and yet I feel like "eh, sure… I like a couple songs". Or are they overrated? Thoughts? Anyone?
PS: Perhaps my ambivalence is because I am sick today (which is also the reason this post is coming out in the late afternoon instead of first thing in the morning and why I have yet to post my Album of the Week).
