- “Broken English” The opening notes of Faithfull’s unexpected comeback masterpiece are almost too perfect: chirping “who me?” synths that are quickly bulldozed by a chugging, relentless bass line that sets up Faithfull’s exhausted, pissed protest against not just the Cold War, but the entire human tendency to fight, scheme, conquer and one-up.

- “Sister Morphine” A Faithfull co-write with Jagger/Richards (although she had to fight to make sure it was credited that way), her 1969 version preceded the one they placed onSticky Fingersby two years — and even though that’s one of their stronger albums, her take (which features Jagger on acoustic and Charlie Watts on drums) easily blows theirs out of the water.
- “As Tears Go By” Faithfull’s debut single — from the pen of Jagger, Richards and their manager Andrew Loog Oldham — is unfortunately her best-known recording in America.
