In Reply to: So you think the Stones can't write a hit, huh. I'll tell you why they can't write a popular hit. posted by Lord Voodoo on April 09, 1999 at 11:44:44:
I don't think you can separate how an artist expresses himself when he knows the world is watching him with how he expresses himself creatively. The ENTIRE POINT of my original post was that the way Mick has EXPRESSED himself publicly throughout his marital mess has shown him to be seriously out of touch with public opinion PERIOD.
According to that article in Time Out mag. each of their albums sell for less and less. IMO it's hard to produce hits of any kind when your head is obviously still somewhere in the 60's.
