Subject: Great riff, but what's it called?

Written By: Nav on 01/10/03 at 09:13 a.m.

hi,

in the uk, FilmFour are running an advert about the greatest films, with a great soundtrack. i think esso also used the riff during the 80's for an advert.

my dad seems to think it's a rolling stones song, but doesn't know it's name.

does anyone know the name of this song?

dying to know

Tricky, seeing as I don't get FilmFour... though the only great riff I can remember Esso using was "Eye of the Tiger", by Survivor (which you'd probably remember if you've seen Rocky :-))
