i dont know if anyone else has posted this yet

STOKE, England, Aug. 7 (UPI) -- An English grandfather who had been in a coma for 10 weeks woke up when his wife played his favorite rock anthem -- "I Can't Get No Satisfaction."
Eva Carter told The Daily Telegraph that she was dubious when doctors suggested playing music for her husband as he lay unconscious after an attack of anemia. But she decided to give it a try.
Her husband, Sam, 60, said he would like to thank Mick Jagger and the other Rolling Stones. He said that the first thing he remembers is hearing the guitar riffs from the beginning of the song.
"I can't remember much from being in a coma but I do remember that when that song came on it took me right back to when I was a youngster," he told The Daily Telegraph. "I could remember how excited I was to get it down at the record shop. I suddenly had a burst of energy and knew I had a lot more life left in me and that's when I woke up -- to the sound of the first song I ever bought."
Sam Carter, a retired baker who lives in Stoke, Staffordshire, woke up about two weeks ago in the City General Hospital.

What a great story. It's like the prince's kiss! Thanks for posting. Definitely beats that thread about the Stones songs you want played at your funeral!

Poor sod will probably get a medical bill from ABKCO.

That made me laugh loud! Excellent!

And good on the fellow - hope he lives for many years yet.

Yeah, it should be mandatory to have the whole Stones catalog at every hospital.
some songs might help in minor but special cases of illness - like:

Salt of the Earth - to induce labour or postnatal conditions
Mothers little Helper - light depressions*
Turd On The Run - diarrhoea
Dear Doctor - in case of broken heart symptoms*

* medication can be combined with Emotional Rescue

research is still in the beginning - please continue.

theyve already done that a few times. In the music business they're called "corporate gigs".

News update is that the poor guy fell back into a coma. They played him "Sleep Tonight" and it seems he took things a bit too literally.

What went wrong or what song did they play to him, that the guy now has restless legs syndrom?

The doctors need some more training with the Stones catalog.

You Gotta Move ?

No, Gazza....
The doctors use "You Gotta Move" to relieve constipation.

I thought "Dont Stop" might have been more apt for that one!

lol, so Jumpin' Jack Flash for restless legs?

It all evens out because,the ABB versions of Miss You were putting people into comas.
