    Not a chance! Still rocking at Glastonbury 2013! Probably the best act of the festival! Brilliant band, always and forever! But if bad ass is good! They you believe it!

    If you are counting career statistics in badassery...they yes.
    If you are talking now...no.
    If you are talking bad assness over their prime...its arguable but still no.

    It's hard for me to answer...they're definitely in the top 10 though. So many good British bands from that era. The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, The Who and The Rolling Stones are all 'the best' for me.

    When all you sing about is trying to have sex and how much you like the color black, you might not be as badass as you think you are. :D

    I've gotta chime in and say that is one group that I've consistently through my many years always loved!!!

    The 1st song I heard by them - and that I still LOVE is Honkey Tonk Woman!!!!

    I don't give a crap how old Mick Jagger gets (or me either) I would do him ALWAYS.

    Hell Yeah!!!

    I saw them on Halloween when I was a kid. Pretty awesome memory, probably the first concert I went to that felt it like had a significant element of spectacle and showmanship to it that I had seen. I remember they played the first half of their set and then had a brief intermission and then came back out and Jagger was dressed up with like this black top hat and costume and they went into Sympathy for the Devil, felt so appropriate for the holiday and stuff.


    That video in the op is interesting, pretty good overall, although Satisfaction was kind of rough.

    I'd probably agree, the run of albums from like Let it Bleed to Goats Head Soup is pretty amazing. Although I'd rank Some Girls as one of my favorite albums by them, pretty cool they found ways to synthesize disco and punk influences into their music and still sound like themselves on that album.

    To be fair, they also sing about doing heroin with the president.
