'Satisfaction' voted favourite Stones song

LONDON - The Rolling Stones' "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" has been voted the group's most popular song by fans.

A poll of 1,000 adults found that for one in five Britons "Satisfaction", first released in 1965, is their favourite.

"Brown Sugar" was at number two, followed by "Jumpin' Jack Flash", "Paint it Black" and - in joint fifth place - "Wild Horses" and "Sympathy for the Devil", according to the GfK NOP poll.

The UK leg of the Stones' worldwide "A Bigger Bang" tour is due to kick off at Twickenham next week, with concerts on August 22 and 24.

The band cancelled two concerts in Spain this week because lead singer Mick Jagger was suffering from laryngitis.

The poll was released by tour sponsors American Express.
