It's coz they did what they want...it takes time for people to get hip to greatness especially the critics....if you do something you think is good and people aren't to sure it probably means it is really good

Most critics and plenty of fans! were disturbed by the strange compressed sound mix( LONG STORY WHY) which doesn't sound unusual at all now.

True dat

Got laid a lot, too. Jus' sayin'...

You forget sheer TALENT!! ❤️

He’s a true genius ❤🔥

You're right! I never thought about the fact that Mick could surely afford the best plastic surgeon in the world, and he didn't go for it. WAY TO GO MICK!!

​​​​​@@pamzavada5269 The British go in for plastic surgery FAR less than Americans, & with very good reason looking at some of them !! 😱 Jagger's passion for life makes him shine! 😄

Best classic? How about best ever?

juan carlos lira is it just me, but just picture it with a lil makeup..could daniel day lewis win a 4th oscar as mick jagger,,whadya think brother,,,HONESTLY

he may be nervous

From giving an interview?

Tommy Skylar cause we re londoners you know?

I say you know a lot too.

I am drunk already

Hey! Why cut us off Right in the middle Ass Holes!

and still as fit as a fiddle

Goddess had some really strong tracks!

@@wrldchamps04 Very good Album. Mick's a great musician! It's quite fashionable to dismiss his solo career but that's their loss! ps I adore ' Dancing In The Starlight'!

Better are She the Boss or Primitive Cool, for me.

love the rolling stones but mick was never a babe

SUNMAYDEN518 idk man. He was pretty good lookin in the mid 60’s to early 70s. Not totally conventionally but in rockstar way.

💯

+winogirlll He studyed Economics at the London School. One of the most prestigious econ schools in the world. He is sharp

+brian whalen or when people go on about how hard they worked and they never gave up. I know talented musicians who work hard and sadly are in their 50s still waiting for that break. It is about luck and I applaud Mick for saying it.

The Rolling Stones can thank their success on the Beatles who discovered them and made Deca sign them a label.

@@Caek_daddy He also LEFT the LSE in his 1st year!

@@winogirlll I thought that was very humble of Mick that he said it was luck.

😆

I would say both his lips did .. you can't be gifted for too long!! but the mouth is still large and he's still gifted anyway.. (I'm comparing with myself..!)

+John K. Lindgren What does that mean?

@@BayviewFinch It means thank you.

find a photo of him with his Dad. That will explain it.

Soul Survivor, you should already know this man

Blues and Lonesome great album.

The rolling stones are the best period

They're all skinny! . Mick Taylor doesn't have those deep lines because he got plump !

***** No, not really. You'd think they'd know getting into a relationship given a very public track-record, but fame, money, lifestyle and all that, makes them think they can deal with it. Or as with any relationship that's not with someone famous, people think the person will change, will think they will be different and have the person's undying love, but they've got no good reason to think that given one's track record. So what you're saying is that women would think it's worth it to be a doormat and "easy." But eventually they can't take it anymore because what hurts hurts. Yes, my fellow women are shallow and have no self-respect. If they want to take that risk and ride the wave, I just don't want to hear them crying afterwards, which they all have done. I'm not sure what you mean about someone who is verbally cruel and a bore...what's relative? There's nothing relative--you don't barter with infidelity because it's a lie, and why would you stay with someone who is verbally cruel and a bore? Just find someone who is not verbally cruel and a bore and who doesn't cheat on you. There are people out there who are like that. It's ironic: Mick was in a movie The Man From Elysian Fields, and James Coburn has a little monologue where he's giving Mick's character some advice. It would be wise to take it. It has been said by several very good writers that Mick has a kind of contempt for women. Sexual attraction isn't love. I don't know if or who Mick ever really really loved, but if there was, it was many decades ago. Things he's said in the last 10 years...well, if I had been with him while he said those things, I'd be out the door; it's easier to pull out a splinter fast. (So I learned.) But not to be a realistic bummer, other than that I like Mick just fine. He's a bit complex, not always easy to figure out, and some people are harsh about him, (not that any of us are perfect or don't do annoying things, like be cheap or the like)...I don't know. I hear what Keith says...I hear all different things, but it's not something I have to deal with. I wasn't happy about the Jerry Hall business, but she too walked into it while he was still married to Bianca. As the world turns.... Regardless, I've always put Mick in my top leading men spot...go figure. I guess I can be objective enough. (: It's funny, he says people wouldn't want him to be the way he is on stage all the time, and I'm thinking why not? (Half kidding, we have to be serious, mellow, or something some times.) Some rock star said, "You are everything you do and say in public." That's true. If you choose some kind of image, that choice is yours, your thinking, thus _you_. Of course this can get confusing. Have a great night.

***** Accepting someone for who they are--would you accept a wife beater, a verbally abusive person, or a cheater? These are behaviors and not necessarily the person's nature--their innate nature. Those are things that can be changed and ought to be changed if you hurt people yet want those people you hurt. Very few people like open relationships. I suggested that to a boyfriend once (just testing the idea) and he said 'No!" Most men who cheat would not like their partner to cheat or sleep with others, which is a one-way street. In my experience, women who put up with their partners cheating, and even go so far as to claim it's OK with them, are lying. I have been seeing this and hearing this all my life from women who dated married men, were "kept" women, who got lots of nice things and presents, but then I'd hear them get miserable about it. I have a great example of a co-worker who did this, and the guy wasn't even good-looking. They have an issue inside of them to put up with that shit to get furniture, a nice condo, etc. Especially young women--they are even more gullible to that. I have my own experiences too, but quickly exited. A psychologist told me about a psychologist friend in Hollywood area whose patients are on anti-depressants because they are unhappy in their marriages, but instead of leaving they don't want to lose the lifestyle (producer husbands, etc.) They have loveless marriages, shouldn't be on anti-depressants, but rather go find someone who will give them the time and love they want. That is their decision. As far as Mick and his chronic women behaviors...he said something about his ways being "bohemian" and that marriage is not for him, apparently, and this during being with his long term love who is now deceased, sadly. There's nothing necessarily bohemian about cheating on people who don't want to be cheated on. He's wanted his cake and to eat it too. He (and others) pay a price for that. He doesn't need creams or cosmetic surgery for his fame works way better than those things he doesn't need. So the question to these men would be, "Do you think you've paid a price for it? What has been the cost for such behaviors?" To be crude because I have to be, was it worth it to stick your dick in some random woman's ____ who you didn't even love but were captured by lust and beauty by chance?" Do you like having people attracted to you who would not be if not famous and wealthy, etc.? Seriously, young girls and a 70 year old? I would have never ever been interested in a 60-something or 70 year old when in my 20s. How do you even fucking related to someone who has not even experienced a whole lot--I certainly had more to go in my 20s and my youth wasn't usual. As someone wrote, these women have been masochists. It isn't worth that sinking feeling one gets when they find out someone has slept with someone else, and the men hate that feeling too. I don't know if people ever stop cheating given the attention, temptations, and beautiful women (or young women) that seek them out, but that is their problem, not mine, and I have no illusions. If women want to sell out their true feelings and desires, that's their problem, but they won't get respect from me especially when they go into a situation that has a high probability that it could happen. That's sad. I'm thinking of Linda Rondstadt's song "Long Long Time." Who knows the cost? is a line in it. Often it's not realized until it's too late. That happened to a boyfriend I broke up with, so he later told me. So...that's stuff to think about. How would you personally deal with it? It's such a big issue in relationships...my parents divorced. Though I have to admit that ultimately it turned out well since they were never really meant for each other, and she eventually found someone who is. Have a great day.

***** I am expressing what many feel and have said, including myself, that is all. So yes, they are thoughts and feelings for many, and the majority, as has so easily been proven. Of course, as I stated, others may think it is OK, but that is rare. It did not work well for Marianne Faithfull...as I said some of it has to do with issues within oneself not realized at the time. And then there are the delusional gold-diggers who I mentioned and have known well. This article about Marianne pretty much says what I went through in my late teens and early 20s, well, actually longer than that until I stopped. We tell little lies to ourselves; we seek intimacy at times when there's no real intimacy; we do things which we should know better; we think we are being free, but we're really not. Sometimes it is just meaningless sex, but often after having been out drinking. Sometimes it takes years to examine and realize what was _really_ going on. A price was paid, self-respect gets lost, if you always live in the moment and do not examine the past, you can become a recidivist feeling shame but then going back and doing the same thing over and over, until you wake up. It didn't truly work well for years for Marianne. Along with that was all the drugs and things the article states. A person can do whatever they want, but if they are hurting people and then losing them, then sad about losing them, well, that needs to be examined. I think you're missing that point...that there is a cost for what we choose to do. It could be positive or negative, but on this subject matter, the negative cost may not be only for yourself but for your children. Even children who adapt to divorce still have all that parental muck in their minds--there has been much research about this. I have a book on the long-term effects of divorced children who were followed throughout their lives. Again, my thoughts are in the majority. And again, And very often, cheaters don't like the idea of _themselves_ being cheated on equally even they have no logical reason to feel that way. It is also humiliating to be cheated on by a very public person and then the whole world knows. What matters is that two people agree on what is love or how they want things to be, and if one doesn't want infedility, then you either agree with that or have the decency to get out of the relationship and be tied to no one. It is also important to your own psyche not to lie to yourself and pretend it's OK when you don't really want that. There are a lot of special, interesting, humorous, etc. people out there in the world--don't be false with yourself, is all. No one is worth selling out your soul. It took me too long to learn that. And definitely money or fame can't buy _me_ love; I'm willing to pay the cost for that; I'd rather be alone than deal with that nonsense. Enough said, here's the article. www.telegraph.co.uk/women/sex/10296390/Marianne-Faithfull-It-wasnt-just-Mick-Jagger-who-couldnt-get-satisfaction.html

***** I forgot to mention...I realize that I am not only talking about Mick, and it feels a little bad timing considering that his girlfriend committed suicide this past March, but I'm sure he won't be reading this, and it goes back to so long ago. I don't think that Mick is a maudlin person, but still, it is a difficult thing to grapple with, and one that has never happened before to him. It leaves people questioning everything, but it is not anyone's fault. I think I said before that there are a bunch of things I like about Mick, just not this issue; I can't pretend otherwise like some weirdly blind obsessed fans do.

***** You missed the forest for the trees. And we can certainly judge anything we want to--we judge all the time--it is part of daily discussions and choices in our lives. We judge ourselves, we judge others, who we like, who we don't, who we want to be friends with, what will we do, a movie, a book, what car to buy, on and on. Marianne judged herself; Mick was a part of her time. It may be that Mick's problems go a lot deeper than having an open relationship too. You keep saying "each to their own" when I already stated it's their problem and choice, no shit...it's called discussion. If we just said to each their own and never discussed anything we would never learn anything or learn to THINK. I made myself very clear. You don't have to defend others' actions, you know, you can offer your own thoughts rather than the obvious "to each his own." ~shrug~

+Atomic Lobotomy Brian Who? We didn't come here for a history lesson. We're here to listen to Mick Jagger, not to you. Have some respect. The guy can't name every important name in a short interview. I'm sure he's mentioned that guy many times. Anyway, it's all God's doing. Just like he said. They were in the right place at the right time.

"The right place at the right time" is just another way Mick shows his thoughtlessness, indifference, and ingratitude. Mick is what in UK is called a c*nt. Well, Mick Jagger became superstar, legend, rock immortal, etc. but he'd never be anywjere without Brian Jones, who picked him out after Brian's first choice, Paul Jones, turned him down. (Paul Jones became vocalist for Manfred Mann, and later had brief solo career--arguably, much better singer than Jagger. ) Anyways, now Jagger hangs out with Taylor Swift, so he's found his true level.

Bollocks. Brian Jones had essentially been pushed out of the band by 1968. He created the band and had influence for sure but it diminished over time as the songwriters came to the fore as well as their stronger personalities. Brian Jones only wrote rubbish as Jagger and Richards both testified and not one Jones track was ever released on record. He was curious and creative but Jones would've been nowhere without Jagger and Richards.

Dave MM Did Brian Jones done dieded?

Dave MM Brian Jones was not a songwriter --but he was an inspiration and essential to the band and without him the Stones quickly went downhill creatively. Their last good album was Sticky Fingers. Jagger was actually more creative on his own -- Jagger's Primitive Cool in the 80s was a much better album than anything the Stones were doing at the time or since. He was about to go solo and then lured back by the bucks. The Stones have basically just become a tribute band to what they were in the 60s, which is to say, the band that Brian Jones created.

Sharper than average for his age tho.

Tom, you couldn't be more correct! Start Me Up also sucks! I still can't understand why they always play the fucking thing. "Heaven" or even "Dancing With Mr. D" would be better picks!

+TommyTwobats I think the word "relevant" gets used way too much. I don't even know what it means anymore when it's used like that.

I thought Under Cover was a great album 1983 .

ghoula69 And then it went downhill. Simply nothing listenable after that.

BayviewFinch Harlem Shuffle?
