You know, they tell you, "Never hit a man with a closed fist," but it is, on occasion, hilarious.

They also did the Beatles "Helter Skelter" and since I'm a much bigger fan of the Beatles than the Stones OH MY GOD.

But seriously, both of these are so cool I love it.

Ok so like, I love the Rolling Stones, and I love this album, and this song.

But anyone who refers to Charlie Watts as a "human metronome" is hilariously, irredeemably wrong, and completely misunderstands one of the fundamental characteristics of the Rolling Stones. Charlie Watts is not a human metronome. Keith Richards is a human metronome. Charlie Watts is behind the beat *all the time*, sloppy as fuck, and generally just a very loose, messy drummer. Charlie Watts is an interesting percussionist, but Keith Richards is the Stones' drummer.

  • You're talking shit. Explain yourself.

Definitely some cool shit.  Unfortunate, though, that all the videos are down from youtube, save for the vocal track.  Really, really cool video of it's own though.

I got sent a link recently of a BBC radio show doing the same deconstruction for The Beatles' Come Together, A Day In The Life, and She's Leaving Home.  Enjoy:
