Overall, for the Stones I like a lot of their 60's and 80's songs too.  Too few songs in the list - only two of these are 70's.

My pick for 70's - Tumblin' Dice, followed by Miss You, Shattered, Angie and Brown Sugar.
For the 60's I like Jumpin' Jack Flash, Satisfaction, The Last Time, Gimme Shelter, Get Off My Cloud
For the 80's I like Start Me Up, Waiting On A Friend, She's So Cold

So many great songs!   ;D

I chose Angie, but I feel I have too many favourites (spelled that way here in Canada!) to list.

The reason there are so few songs is because you are only allowed to list 5 and I made the last one other so people have a choice to pick that. I wish I could list more but I'm not allowed  :-\\. BTW, the songs you picked rock! :D

According to my Billboard book, "Honky Tonk Women" was 1969 (got to #1 that year) and "Hang Fire" (believe it or not) was 1982 (got to #20 that year and also was in a #1 album at the time).

Dificult, as I like all the songs on the list.

I've gone for Brown Sugar.

My favourite of theirs from the 60s is Out Of Time - I think their version is so much better than Chris Farlowe's. The main difference is Brian Jone's excellent marimba playing. Such a shame that a talented musician like him died so young.

the correct answer is Gimme Shelter

PAINT IT BLACK
First it gibed well with the Joy Divisionoid melancholy of my youth--then the song literally came true for me!
:\'(

Several Goth bands have tried to cover "Paint It Black," without success as far as I'm concerned.  The one band changed the line
"Like a newborn baby, it just happens every day" to "Like a stillborn baby, it just happens everyday."  Jeezus, no sense of subtlety or irony!  These goths have only a comic book sense of the macabre.

Anyway, "Paint It Black" is actually a tie with "She's A Rainbow."  It's such a pretty song, makes you wish the Stones never discovered cocaine!

Some other RS songs I like:
Ruby Tuesday
As Tears Go By
Get Off of My Cloud
Start Me Up
Under Cover of the Night
Mother's Little Helper
19th Nervous Breakdown
Hang Fire
Street Fighting Man
