HEARTBREAKER (DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO) - Rolling Stones - 1972 A year before this song was recorded, in the movie Dirty Harry, Clint Eastwood canonized the .44 Magnum as the most powerful handgun in the world, and made it part of every gun nuts wet dream. Though Harry used it to blow away punks, the Stones suggest a more symbolic application. With an R & B vibe thick with sax, horns, clavinet (played by Billy Preston) and electric piano, the song also includes the background doo doo doo doo doo, which gives it its idiotic album name. With Micks growling storytelling taking center stage, complete with police shooting kids and heroin ODs in dirty alleyways, he leaves no doubt who - and what - the real heartbreaker is.
