      I would have been hard pressed to not take this at #1, even though there are two songs id rather have

        I was debating between Heartbreaker and Paint it Black. I figured Paint it Black would come back to me. DMT answered that one very quickly.

          Looks like I wasn't alone.
          If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

              Lesson learned from previous song drafts: Take your favorites whenever you can get them, because these other bastards will steal even your most obsure treasures.

              Of the songs I predicted would go 2-3-4-5, only one was taken (Sympathy For The Devil). This is gonna be an unpredictable draft, methinks.

              "The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master - that's all."

                1.06 Paint It Black (Aftermath, 1966)

                I was choosing between Paint It Black and Sympathy in the end.

                  And now it's not. (Gimme Shelter)

                    When I first heard "Gimme Shelter" so many years ago I had no idea what the female was singing, but like ElD said it gave me chills and still does.

                    If I had the first pick it would have been "Gimme Shelter"

                    I'm not a real big fan of "Waiting on a friend", but all the other picks are great songs.

                      'Gimme Shelter' is #3 for me.

                          I doubted I would have a shot at Sympathy. I thought maybe Paint It Black would get back to me. Gimme Shelter would have looked nice on my list but really like a lot of the songs I like I will not get a chance to pick...Good thing there are a lot of songs I like.

                            Great song, great pick. This is gonna be a fun draft to be a spectator.

                              Gimme Shelter is by far my favorite Stones song....its the funeral march for the summer of love and for my money crushes anything by the beatles

                                So EVERYONE in the bottom half of the draft would have taken Gimme Shelter.
