Mick Jagger minced no words when sharing his thoughts on anti-vaxxers and conspiracy theorists in a new interview. The Rolling Stones singer just released a new solo single, the raucous, Dave Grohl-assisted “Eazy Sleazy.” Jagger rails against the difficulties and tragedies of the COVID-19 pandemic, including canceled tours, virtual-songwriting sessions and steadily rising infection numbers.
He also pokes fun at vaccine skeptics and flat-earthers in one tongue-in-cheek verse: "Shooting the vaccine / Bill Gates is in my bloodstream / It’s mind control / The earth is flat and cold."
"It just seems to be that even people you know that are relatively sensible about a lot of things have one thing that they just don’t kind of get," Jagger told Rolling Stone in a new interview. "Of course, there’s no point in speaking to people about it. They don’t get it. They got what they believe in and they believe in that. And it doesn’t matter what you say, they’re gonna believe in it. And rational thought doesn’t work."
Jagger said that over the past year, he's discovered through casual phone conversations that a fair share of his friends and relatives are opposed to getting vaccinated. (Thankfully, the frontman didn't have these revelations while arguing with people on Facebook.) "It’s just saying to people, 'When are you getting your vaccine?' Just passing the time of day, 'Oh, I’m not getting it.' 'Okay. Why not? Are you in the queue?' 'Oh no, because I don’t agree with it.' I started to realize that there really were quite a few people like that."
The singer found that while some of these people were open to learning new information and having their minds changed, others — especially those of a certain political persuasion — were set in their ways and not even worth singing about. "After a while, some people maybe change their minds on this," he said. "But all these other ones like, 'Trump won the election' and all these things, I didn’t bother putting them in [the song]."
Despite the dire circumstances of the pandemic and the rampant disinformation that infected some of his friends, Jagger remains optimistic about humanity's prospects in "Eazy Sleazy.” He assures listeners in the chorus that "we're all headed back to paradise" and says that soon, the pandemic will be "a memory you're trying to remember to forget." You can listen to the new song below.
Mick’s upset because their latest farewell tour has been postponed now for a year and a half and Charlie Watts is done tired being in the band. But no one wants to be the one to make them hang it up.
I wonder if his tour will absolutely require the vax tattoo to enter regardless if Austin or other cities demand it.
Hope I die before I ge-
Mick... buddy... you look ridiculous on stage. Give it up.
He might ridiculous but he is a lot richer than you, has a huge fan base and is a great business man.
Another crapy dated song from 21st century Mick Jagger:
Sweet Neo-Con (2005)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwj6ZGMF_uA
Singer Mick Jagger initially denied the song’s lyrics were aimed directly at U.S. President George W. Bush. In a September, 2005 interview with Rolling Stone magazine when he was asked “Who are you singing to?”, Jagger replied, “I don’t want to overexplain it. But it is very direct. During the presidential election, I was asked by the New York Daily News which side I was on. I said it’s not polite to take sides in foreigners’ elections. But we’re not in an election now.” Keith Richards was more cautious - “I didn’t want this to be a diversionary storm, I thought potentially it would detract attention from the rest of the album and be seen as cheap publicity. We don’t need that. But I told Mick, ‘If you really feel like you want to say that, I’ll back you all the way.’”
>>Neo pagan Western culture not only worships uneducated, crass celebrities, but seeks them out for medical advice.
When I’m drivin’ in my car, and the man come on the radio
He’s tellin’ me more and more about some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination
I can’t get no, oh, no, no, no, hey, hey, hey
That’s what I say
I can’t get no satisfaction, I can’t get no satisfaction
‘Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can’t get no, I can’t get no
When I’m watchin’ my TV and a man comes on and tells me
How white my shirts can be
But, he can’t be a man ‘cause he doesn’t smoke
The same cigarettes as me
You will.
Public schools and Universities are already making it mandatory. You think they’ll stop there? Next thing they’ll come up with a tax on people who can’t prove they’ve been fully vaccinated and put it on the tax forms. They’ll give you a rebate if you have been and hit you with a $1000 penalty if you haven’t.
These people are drunk with power. This Covid thing was a huge power grab. Now everyone is bending over, grabbing their ankles and begging the government to jab them.
Doesn’t change the fact that he’s well past his prime.
Eh, he still mocks/denounces them in his lyrics comparing them to flat earthers.
Mick, did you get any women hooked on heroin, lately?
>>What a drag it is getting old...
Hey you, get offa my lawn!
Sounds like Keith needs to kick his ass.
They were knighted and given special access/privileges and sit on piles of wealth. They are among the ruling elite.
Just use Keith’s blood, that will cure everything.
I took a listen too.
Didn’t sound like Keith was playing. If he was he’s lost it.
Why haven’t the Stones been cancelled for “Black Girls just want to get f’d all night”?
Here are the vapid lyrics from Loudwire:
Mik Jagger + Dave Grohl, “Easy Sleazy” Lyrics
WE TOOK IT ON THE CHIN
THE NUMBERS WERE SO GRIM
BOSSED AROUND BY PR*CKS
STIFFEN UPPER LIPS
PACING IN THE YARD
YOU’RE TRYING TO TAKE THE MICK
YOU MUST THINK IM REALLY THICK
LOOKING AT THE GRAPHS WITH A MAGNIFYING GLASS
CANCEL ALL THE TOURS FOOTBALLS FAKE APPLAUSE
NO MORE TRAVEL BROCHURES
VIRTUAL PREMIERES
IVE GOT NOTHING LEFT TO WEAR
LOOKING OUT FROM THESE PRISON WALLS
YOU GOT TO ROB PETER IF YOU’RE PAYING PAUL
BUT ITS EASY EASY EVERYTHING’S GONNA GET REALLY FREAKY
ALRIGHT ON THE NIGHT
SOON IT LL BE BE A MEMORY YOU’RE TRYING TO REMEMBER TO FORGET
THATS A PRETTY MASK
BUT NEVER TAKE A CHANCE TIK TOK STUPID DANCE
TOOK A SAMBA CLASS I LANDED ON MY A**
TRYING TO WRITE A TUNE YOU BETTER HOOK ME UP TO ZOOM
SEE MY PONCEY BOOKS TEACH MYSELF TO COOK
WAY TOO MUCH TV ITS LOBOTOMISING ME
THINK IVE PUT ON WEIGHT
ILL HAVE ANOTHER DRINK THEN ILL CLEAN THE KITCHEN SINK
WE ESCAPED FROM THE PRISON WALLS
OPEN THE WINDOWS AND OPEN THE DOORS
BUT ITS EASY EASY
EVERYTHING S GONNA GET REALLY FREAKY
ALRIGHT ON THE NIGHT
ITS GONNA BE A GARDEN OF EARTHLY DELIGHTS
EASY SLEAZY ITS GONNA BE SMOOTH AND GREASY
YEAH EASY BELIEVE ME
ITL’L ONLY BE A MEMORY YOU’RE TRYING TO REMEMBER
TO FORGET
SHOOTING THE VACCINE BILL GATES IS IN MY BLOODSTREAM
ITS MIND CONTROL
THE EARTH IS FLAT AND COLD ITS NEVER WARMING UP
THE ARCTICS TURNED TO SLUSH
THE SECOND COMINGS LATE
THERES ALIENS IN THE DEEP STATE
WE’LL ESCAPE FROM THESE PRISON WALLS
NOW WERE OUT OF THESE PRISON WALLS
YOU GOTTA PAY PETER IF YOU’RE ROBBING PAUL
BUT ITS EASY EASY EVERYTHING S GONNA BE REALLY FREAKY
ALRIGHT ON THE NIGHT
WERE ALL HEADED BACK TO PARADISE
YEAH EASY BELIEVE ME
ITL’L BE A MEMORY YOU’RE TRYING TO REMEMBER TO FORGET
EASY CHEESY EVERYONE SING PLEASE PLEASE ME
ITL’L BE A MEMORY YOU’RE TRING TO REMEMBER TO FORGET

Mick doesn’t understand that this is some useless information that supposed to fire my imagination.
Kind of like that man on my TV telling me about how white my shirts can be...
Start me up, I’ll never stop... until I have a blood clot.
Yep
