Nike without question was the first to come to mind, but I’m loyal to New Balance. Wasn’t sure about the picking criteria there…
Funny, I started to write a different song, I stoped, backspaced, and said to myself, everyone else is going to list “Satisfaction”.
Oh, I agree. I started to write “Paint it Black” and deleted it to put “Satisfaction.”
Even though “Sympathy For the Devil” is my favorite RS song.

Wow, that is exactly the one I started to type. It is by far my favorite Stone’s song.

I’m partial to “Mother’s Little Helper” and “19th Nervous Breakdown”
I’m a “Gimme Shelter” gal myself – most sublime three minutes of rock ever.

I knew I’d lose points as I typed “Paint It Black,” but I didn’t care, it’s a million times better (to me).
ShibbOleth:
Cerulean (just kidding… anyone get the reference?) Sky blue
Cellphone
I’m not sure…was that a Beetlejuice ref?
Just reread the OP – I cut and pasted the “how-to” section, and should have read it more carefully. I say the theoretical maximum number of points is 500 – the actual theoretical maximum is 1,000 (10 questions x 100 points).
If whoever starts the next game wants to cut and paste – fix that, wouldja?
