So funny you say this because not long ago just out of curiosity I tried to research if he or Keith had ever held even a proper PART-TIME job anywhere as teen's since they were in earnest full time band members so young. Couldn't find one reference to either of them having jobs prior to joining OR during band early days of their joining up. Primary school, art school, band, history.

He could have been an economist and an author. Incisive mind didn't have to abandon his studies at the London School of Economics.

I could see him as an accountant in another universe. The odds of Jagger becoming such a monumental mega-Super Star in Rock were minute. If you believe in String Theory, the odds that Mick Jagger becomes this biggest of stars are like other people winning the biggest lottery ever. Probably in Jagger's other universes, he just becomes a regular success from his intelligence. I urge people to research String Theory, regardless of whether one believes it or not, it's an interesting theory that more and more physicists are subscribing to since they know that infinity is real thanks to the equation of a black hole. So Sir Mick, in our reality, has hit the jackpot whilst probably failing as a Rolling Stone in the vast majority of realities. See the film "YESTERDAY" for an exploration of this theory without saying so.

Sure......but he could've been a very successful economist or entrepreneur , which he also somewhat did beside the band after 1981 . "I don't want to go on for ever" ....."if I wasn't hooked on my monthly fix of second hand crowd adoration..... that is." ....."wonder how I'm gonna survive this Corona crap"....."which keeps all my fans away from me" .

@@suzannegoode1557 He is an author, because of the way he wrote so many greats lyrics.

Too selfish to get children need a full time mother and father...

tara hoogen he’s high AF

Chad Cullen definitely is 😂😂😂

broo he's just comfortable

Madam Mothra definitely high

@@tarahoogen yeah i would have to agree with you but also comfortable comfortable and high

Mick Reminds one of Canadian Prime Minister Prierre Ellliot Trudeau

I would argue him and Dave Gahan are tied ! Lol

@@JaraArtist Most people have no clue who David Gahan is, so he's definitely not in the running for "Greatest Front man of a rock and roll band". Sorry, but he's not.

Iggy Pop beats him by miles

@@neal1692 Iggy Pop? That pretentious has been? Don’t be silly.

@@alicat7281 at least iggy pop has enough dignity to end his band when all of the members die

Yeah, me too, now we have shit

Boomers

Yeah and still hanging black people indiscriminately shooting them dead. The good old days. Sick. You are the worst kind of human.

@@doriangray2020 what the hell are you on about? You sound like the worst kind of human lmao

@@themagicminstrels476 just the truth about what you people call the “good old days”. Your bubble mentality is the cancer destroying this world. Sweet dreams prince.

I now know what it takes to call Jagger a genius.

Well after he took over is all been up for more than 4 decades, and the way he responded to that lady’s questions and stay away from getting caught in some answers and also he’s demeanor of staying cool with her with all her stupid questions, I believe that for his age and fame at that moment he kept a level head and in some way stayed true to himself. Maybe he’s not Einstein, but in his business he is smart, at least he knows when to drop drugs for a while and recuperate and didn’t ended up OD in some hotel room

@@marialeal5444 Jagger is really really smart. He is the major force why the Stones are still relevant and still selling out sports stadiums in his 70's.

Philip Matsikoudis I know; he might not be a rocket scientist or a brain surgeon, but the guy has natural intelligence and talents that he has used all his life to take the band to the 21st century and still be rocking, it takes guts, talent and pizzazz plus a lot of work, and he has all that plus he loves his music. We got to give him and his band all the props, tenacious bunch they are.

@@marialeal5444 I totally agree.

Yep. Just saw them on tour (June 2024) and he is still incredible

how so?

@@sixelakeller5377 just how thoughtful and comfortable he comes off here, I liked how casually free he seemed and I craved that frame of mind at the time

LOL - Yup! - You got that right!

.....and.....bored . The band wasn't particularly happy in Australia .

@ He was also drugged up back then, he doesn’t need to appear stoned, it was rarer to see him sober than drunk or high

Don't think, he is still this kind of relaxed one on interview.

Oh yeah ✌️

Genius. ? Hahaha funny

Harry Houdini :)

He was cute. 🔥

Are you asking? Because, it's pretty obvious. He evolves and changes all the time. But, it's the entire package. His looks are only a small part of what makes him a sex symbol.

ikkkk he's so cute

He's truly beautiful ❤️

@@kristin-artl.335 a sex symbol? That’s a bit odd to say

Only much bigger than Tony Bennett.

Except thousands time richer and a much bigger star. More like a Frank Sinatra than a Tony Bennett, albeit, Tony is still plugging away.

He sure does now and he's still Rockin like he's in his 20's. The guy is in phenomenal shape and has done everything right to maintain himself. Sir Jagger deserves a lot of credit for his self-discipline to remain relevant to the present in 2020, 47 years after this interview.

What’s crazy is that Tony is somehow still alive

@@sumtin05698 and he just did his last show a week ago lady gaga

Yes!!! He really was great.

keith burgess long gone are the days of substance-fuelled honesty lol

Doubt it. He has done thousands. If he sees it he probably would have his memory refreshed, otherwise...doubtful.

The woman interviewing him wouldn't appreciate you calling her "Frank".

Prolly just really high lol

Stoned!

Coke

Maybe high that’s why he’s wearing the glasses

Nobody is more copied than the Rolling Stones and in particular...Jagger.

@@NewarkBay357 como??

Dipstick

Keith wasn't referring to Mick Taylor's playing, it was his lack of movement or even facial expressions.

Mick Taylor was the best guitarist the Stones ever had in their lineup. When Taylor was a Stone the Stones generated their best music.

Mick Taylor had a very boring stage presence, just standing there looking bored . A great player but he just stood there looking bored

Right. Mick Taylor should have strutted around more like Bill Wyman. Lol. How could anyone complain about Taylor looking bored...when Bill Wyman barely moved his fingers on stage.

Can’t really run around like Ron Wood and play like Mick Taylor lol

p.s.: I never felt that the stones had a 'message'.

Jagger wrote that riff which opens the song.

​​@@NewarkBay357 Yes, it was in Australia where he was for Ned Kelly.

He does admit that groupies get abused a lot though which is somewhat redeeming

I think you missed his point completely. He meant something different. He said women should not be attacked, especially phisically. He also said that groupies should not be abused because they are humans.

It's because some people have this false idea that women can do no wrong.

@@Mirabella76 LOL. That's not what he said.

@@scottythetrex5197 maybe you should listen more carefully. Whatever

Not really. Get off it

Sha-Ruby

She mostly just wanted to talk about tawdry stuff (sex, drugs, etc.). Music was discussed only in a superficial way.

@@bholaoates1542 True that.

acid, and he always stuck his tongue out randomly at the camera from the early age of the stones too

Burning..

NO,NOT AT ALL!! Harry Styles is just like him,he's a lot older was born first so Harry takes after him not the other way around lol

No he’s not 💀😭

@@morgdani6686 he is In ways

MickJagger has a dance music record coming out December 2020

14:30mark Mick Taylor showing his influence on the early 70s Stones sound.

"Too Much Blood" in the 80's version of the Stones. They wasted their talent in that decade because of in-fighting.
