PLEASE HELP CHOOSE the "Best Video Version Ever" of THIS well-known Rolling Stones song from "Exile on Main Street"!
So, this provides a great peg for this latest "Best Video Version Ever" "contest". YouTube has plenty of videos of the biggest hit from this well-loved album, "TUMBLING DICE". Here's one to get us, ahem, rolling: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpctim6CvuM (live, 1990, not necessarily the best)
Now, it is YOUR TURN!
(1) POST a video of the song that you think qualifies as the best ever. It could be a Stones' version, a well-known cover, a mash-up, a 3 yr old with large lips, etc. And, feel free to explain your thoughts/feelings/etc about it.
(2) VOTE for other versions posted - the video with the highest vote total will be chosen as "The Bests Video Version Ever" (though the others will also be spotlighted)
(3) SPREAD THE WORD about this contest - by voting this "question" as "interesting", by Tweeting it, by telling your friends to come vote for your entry, etc.
By the way, the original of this song is one of the rare ones where Mick plays guitar alongside Keith.

Lyrics:
Women think I'm tasty, but they always try to waste me,
Make me burn the candle right now
But baby, baby, I don't need no jewels in my crown
'Cause all you women is low down gamblers
Cheatin' like I don't know how
But baby, baby, there's fever in the funk house now
This low down bitchin' got my poor feet a itchin'
Don't you know that deuces stay wild
Baby, I can't stay
You got to roll me
And call me the tumblin' dice
Always in a hurry, you never stop to worry
Don't see the time flashin' by
Honey, got no money
I'm all sixes and sevens and nines
Say now, baby, I'm the rank outsiser
You can be my partner in crime
But baby, I can't stay
You got to roll me
And call me the tumblin' dice
Oh, my, my, my, I'm the lone crap shooter
Playing the field every night
Baby, I can't stay
You got to roll me
And call me the tumblin'
Roll me
And call me the tumblin'
Got to roll me, got to roll me
