Most underrated/underappreciated Stones songs?

It was an acquired taste for me. I hated it for a very long time, but now it just might be my favorite song from Sticky Fingers

 

Turd on the Run

 

Sitting on a Fence is a big favorite of mine, both musically and lyrically, but it doesn't seem to be on anyone's radar as a top early Stones song. I love it, right down to the botched guitar note right at the end.

 

I wouldn't call Dead Floweres underappreciated!

My vote goes to Sitting On A Fence.

 

Are we talking underappreciated by the general public?

In which case it has to be Sway and Moonlight Mile.

Oh, and Monkey Man

 

Respectable

 

I've gotta go with "Sing This All Together" and "On With The Show", two of the more unloved nuggets from Satanic.

 

Let Me Down Slow
Old-Stones guitar-weaving from Bigger Bang.

 

Stoned
Pain in my heart
Route 66
She said yeah

 

If I could only choose one, this would be it.

I'll throw one more in - "She Said Yeah" - one of the great opening songs on a record.

Oh, and about half of Exile qualifies.

 

Beat me to it by 3 minutes!

 

Stealing My Heart.

I love this tune but it never gets mentioned

 

Several from their Debut LP ("Little by Little" and "I'm a King Bee" probably being my faves)... I don't understand why this album doesn't rank higher in SHF polls -- I feel the same way regarding "With the Beatles" in SHF Beatles polls

and (in chronological order, I think)

Little Red Rooster
The Spider and the Fly
High and Dry
Think
She Smiled Sweetly
Stray Cat Blues
The Lantern (I know I'm in the minority -- I don't get the love for "Citadel" nor the lack of love for "The Lantern")
Monkey Man
Dead Flowers
Starfvcker
Before They Make Me Run

Nice list Mr Fell

 

Very Dyaln though

 

Here are a couple others that I forgot from the Deluxe Editions.

I'm Not Signifying
Claudine
So Young

 

Saint Of Me is one of my favorites.

 

Agreed 100%. I can't tell you how many times I have talked to other music fans who say that a compilation is "all they need" from the Stones. It makes no sense to me. They are missing out on untold riches! We're only two pages in on this thread and dozens of amazing non-single songs have already been mentioned.

 

Luxury
If You Really Want To Be My Friend
Sleep Tonight
Might As Well Get Juiced
Mean Disposition

 

I was feeling pretty cool, since no one had mentioned Child Of The Moon, and I was going to win!

Then I saw John Fell's post, and I'm off to drown my sorrows in gin.

 

"She's So Cold" is one of my favorite Stones songs. Despite a fair amount of radio play when ER was released, it rarely finds its way on to any hits compilations.
