Mick makes himself timeless by 'staying abreast of things' in the business. He's always been engaged, ambitious, smart, had a great business sense and was totally loose as a songwriter, player and performer. He's just brilliant. He's always known exactly who he is.

[@ericsonhazeltine5064]

Thanks to his demanding father, Mick has always been very, very disciplined.

[@PAULLONDEN]

@@ericsonhazeltine5064 Being "demanding" is not a successful way to bring up your kids , they might do just the opposite. He had a stable upbringing , which usually is enough to get stable kids. Take Brian Jones' father , he was the typical shortsighted demanding father , which made Brian an establishment hating unstable dropout . On whose shoulders fame did not rest easily (as Jagger once stated). Bill Wyman had somewhat of a cruel father yet he turned out to develop a very levelheaded personality .

[@NoWay1969]

Jagger does something that I can't think of any other vocalist doing at the level Jagger does it. He sounds authentic in whatever genre he's in. There are a lot of vocalists who, if they sing Chicago blues, sound like hard rock vocalists covering Chicago blues. Mick sounds like a Chicago bluesman, and he does the same thing with other genres too. If he sings country, it sounds like Bakersfield or Nashville. If he covers Stax/Volt, it sounds like Mussel Shoals. I can't think of anyone else who gets the feeling right the way Mick can. I love Paul Rodgers and Rod Stewart and Robert Plant, and I love it when they cover things, but they always sound like themselves covering something. Mick gets the feeling, the phrasing right. He pauses and modulates the volume like Muddy or Otis would without it ever being imitative.

Regardless of how the album turns out, it's an absolute inspiration how healthy and articulate the remaining Stones are for their age. This was a great interview, Mick seems like a great person to have a sincere conversation with - you're a lucky guy to get to sit with him for so long.

Mick looks great not only considering his age but that it seems he's had no plastic surgery. The guy can still move on the stage and he's still co producing his records. He mixed Tatoo You pretty much on his own. One of the best Mick Jagger interviews I have seen Tom.

What an amazing life Mick Jagger has had. He gets more wrinkly but never really changes otherwise. It's brilliant. Some people get old in their 40s. He's 80!

[@DR_DOOM_3298]

Great interview, you both seemed very relaxed. A rare interview when the interviewer doesn't seem overwhelmed that they are talking to a living legend.

[@Hochmann2]

Very good interview! Mick Jagger really opened up here and it was nice, relaxed, and in-depth on interesting topics. Thank you!

[@baybae92]

I love that Mick doesn’t stop talking after he starts talking about Charlie. He really loved him ♥️

[@gitboxman1791]

Wow, that was one of the best Rolling Stones Mick Jagger interviews I’ve seen. It was so comfortable to watch. I didn’t want to see it end. It was 100% living room. it dug deep into everything that you wanted to hear about rock ‘n’ roll roots and the people who made those roots. I swear I saw a twinkle of the light flash off my telecaster. I think you’re gonna have to dig deep to top that interview. Good job.

I love that i still love Mick as dearly as I first did 51 years ago. Im the Luckiest fan in the world.

[@tiffanyroseangeles34]

Look at this style. Incredible. Articulate. The ultimate Entertainer! For Decades! Everyone knows Mick! From the elite to simple music lovers across the ages! I’ve got to hear Anger” yet. The creative spark is iconic!😊😊

[@lothartries5515]

I felt I attended a class at RS University.Thanks for the great interview and thanks Mick for being so down to earth and talking still with such excitement about your music.Wait with interest for the other songs from the new album.

[@Elaine-oo4qp]

Tom Power is an excellent interviewer. And I think a bitta that is because he's a fellow Newfie. He has a certain charm about him, and is able to put the people he's interviewing at ease. Well done, Tom. Newfoundland is proud of you. Mick seems to really enjoy himself here. ❤

[@janewatkins9801]

Fantastic interview 😊♥. Thanks so much for this. Mick is so talented and interesting. Tom did a terrific job of asking intelligent and unpredictable questions that brought out the fascinating character of Mick Jagger. Well done.

[@seanlibbey4499]

Amazing interview,mick is notoriously had to interview and you got some really insight..thanks

[@bullcrap9409]

Huh? He’s a smart guy and always has interesting things to say.

[@spotty67]

Great interview Tom, you make us Canadians proud. Salute to Mick.

[@KayEl58]

This interview started off well and just got better and better. Infact it's the best Jagger interview I've ever seen and I'm old enough to remember him being interviewed by Robin Day, quite some time ago 😂 Mick's a very intelligent highly educated guy and now has the wisdom that comes with age to add to that. If you ask him the right questions you'll get really good information. I've ofte wondered how he and Keith write together these days, I just assumed Mick wrote the lyrics for Angry and Keith came up with the riff, as of old. This is the first time I've heard him go into so much detail about the writing process. Well done on having the balls to ask him if losing so many contemporaries is scary and I'm glad he answered it honestly. He's right when he says you start thinking about a lot earlier. Great interview, some good life advice from Mick, too. Thanks.

[@keithleeuwen877]

So impressed that another album is coming out, unbelievable really ! looking forward to it.

[@keithleeuwen877]

Thanks for the likes folks !

[@solitairestarr5516]

Wonderful interview. And, of course the absolutely marvellous Mick Jagger. Well done Mick, Keith, Ronnie (and Charlie), and thanks also to the other musicians and tech people on this new album. So glad the guys are back and fighting for music and humanity!

[@KQOAmericanLady]

Thank you 🙏🏻 This AmerICAN 🇺🇸 Lady truly appreciates these Amazing Brits London boys

[@kevintrawick1278]

Great interview. Mick seems a little more relaxed and open than a lot of other interviews I've seen

[@stevev8079]

Mick is much less guarded with the press as he’s aged. It’s great to listen to.

[@fifermcgee5971]

Thanks a million Tom for the brilliant interview with Mr. Rock N Roll, can hardly wait to hear the new album, Oct. 20/23. Tom, you are a national treasure listen to you every day and find your work so rewarding.

[@deeg8849]

Mick seemed much more relaxed and open. Nice to hear him reflect on Brian’s sad passing. 17:30. Love the Stones, but Brian’s always been my fave. Health and happiness Mick.

[@reekashade]

I feel so lucky that Mick & the Stones have been there all my life…they feel like family.

[@californiahiker9616]

Such a thoughtful interview, Tom! All your prep work paid off! I just want to comment on something related to what Mick said about not wanting to be retro. Over the last 20 or so years I’ve seen a lot of bands that were popular in my youth, including the Stones. (I’m a few years younger than Mick). I really enjoy them still touring! What I truly appreciate about the Stones is that you never get the old age jokes so many other bands seem to thrive on. I would get so tired of these jokes! The Stones just carry on the way they always have. There’s no sadness when you leave their concert. You don’t feel like … oh gosh, wasn’t it great in 1960… and then leave wistfully. No. The Stones still project vitality, relevance, hope for tomorrow. You kind of wonder what will they do next… something to look forward to! Very inspiring!

[@tonylombardi4661]

In 1976, I bought the "Black and Blue" album, my first new Stones release. I looked at the gatefold and thought "This is what a RnR band should look like". Decades later, Mick is still the coolest guy in any room. Thank you Glimmer Twins!

Just like you Black and Blue turned me onto the Stones.

[@petagaymacmillan9449]

My darling Mick Jagger was in Jamaica where I live 😳 I adore him and would give anything just for a glimpse. He’s a legend 😎😎😎😎🤩

[@mandys.2725]

Tom Power never fails. Always the best interviews.

[@fifermcgee5971]

Yes, you bet, he does his research and is well prepared to bring out the best of his guest. Brian May of Queen stated a great big thank you to Tom for the excellent well thought out questions. Brian was surprised at the high caliber of the questions.
