Start Me Up
"Start Me Up" is a song by the English rock band the Rolling Stones from their sixteenth studio album Tattoo You (1981). The song is a crowd pleaser, often performed by the band at the beginning of their concerts. It has also become a sports anthem. Released as the album's lead single, it reached the number 1 positions on the Australia, Canada, Spain, and US Billboard Mainstream Rock charts, the number 2 position on US Billboard Hot 100 chart, and the number 7 position on the UK singles chart; and it performed well in other European countries. The music video for "Start Me Up" was placed in heavy rotation on the new MTV channel in 1981, adding to the song's lengthy chart run in the US. The single's B-side is a slow blues number called "No Use in Crying", which is an album track on Tattoo You.
