A revista americana Rolling Stone publicou uma seleção com as 100 melhores músicas da banda de rock. A lista foi criada a partir da classificação de críticos, jornalistas, editores e especialistas da revista, que escolheram individualmente as 50 canções mais memoráveis do grupo. Em seguida, a revista tabulou e organizou os resultados, enumerando as 100 mais votadas em um ranking final. Ganharam destaque músicas de diferentes momentos da carreira da banda, no entanto as primeiras colocações são ocupadas por hits dos primeiros anos de estrada dos Rolling Stones: “Gimme Shelter” (1969), que é considerada um hino do rock; seguida de “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction” (1965); e “Sympathy for the Devil” (1968).
