    Great song. I was always a Beatles girl (born after they split up though!!) but as I get older, the Stones are getting better... Well, I'm hearing their old stuff with new ears - I don't think his voice is quite the same now.

    I saw the movie and probably liked it, but now after so many years I can't say that I remember it.

    I remember watching Jumpin' Jack Flash on VHS and thinking, "This movie sucks!" Hollywood was fascinated with computers at the time, though...there was a mystique.
