: Exactly MY point when I said "he's Mick Jagger." I'm not sticking up for him, but the standard rules just do not apply. Like it or not he's above the law.
Considering how strongly he's been denounced by the world press, it seems obvious that public opinion doesn't consider him in anyway above the law, although he clearly views himself this way.
christ there's a truckload of stuff that DOESN'T make him sound like The Horned One.
It's the way he's always treated women in his personal life which make his mysogenistic lyrics sound intentionally so.
: : Jerry's equally bad behavior??
: Yeah, I have to agree with Dandy on this one. Jerry is a press whore and makes it almost seem like they deserve each other sometimes.
Exactly what has this woman done to him which comes anywhere close to how cruelly he's treated her???!!!
IMHO the best way for Mick to write lots more hit songs is to see a psychiatrist first.
:
: Ha! I think going to a shrink & solving his sexual peccadillos would ruin him. The Stones run on Mick's ego. If he didn't have a pathologic NEED for ALL of the adulation and attention in the universe, he wouldn't still be onstage.
I think that more than anyone else, he himself would love to be touring in support of a hit song as opposed touring their catalogue. But he hasn't had a hit song in years and years, and as I've previously posted, I think the problem is simply his lyrics not his voice or the music.
I hope he never turns into a "nice guy".
The most significant/glaring character trait in Mick's personal life is the abomidable way he's treated many of his long term partners. I'm sorry to see that some of his fans would actually be disappointed if he started acting responsibly instead of like a WEASEL!!! to the mothers of his children (paternity suits etc.)
