More quotes by Mick Jagger
We have recorded songs on the same day that were released years later in other albums.
Mick Jagger
In England you're skewered on the altar of pop culture if you become pretentious.
Mick Jagger
Drug use makes you snappy, and you get very bad-tempered and have terrible hangovers.
Mick Jagger
The grown-up world was a very ordered society in the early '60s, and I was coming out of it. America was even more ordered than anywhere else. I found it was a very restrictive society in thought and behavior and dress.
Mick Jagger
It's all right letting yourself go, as long as you can get yourself back.
Mick Jagger
Of course, I do occasionally arouse primeval instincts, but I mean, most men can do that. They can't do it to so many. I just happen to be able to do it to several thousand people. It's fun to do that.
Mick Jagger
I wasn't taking so many drugs that it was messing up my creative processes. It was a very good period, 1968 - there was a good feeling in the air. It was a very creative period for everyone.
Mick Jagger
Acting is mostly interpretive. They use different parts of you, and different sides of you, and different so-called talents.
Mick Jagger
Everyone knows what their roots are, but you've got to explore everywhere. You've got to explore the sky too.
Mick Jagger
I don't spend money on anything. I don't collect anything. I don't spend it on furniture.
Mick Jagger
I don't believe in astrology. It's a lot of crap. I just think that's another thing you should throw out the window. Mysticism. Cheap. It's amazing that people still hang on to that after all these years.
Mick Jagger
I can't get no satisfaction.
Mick Jagger
I don't believe in original melodies. There are only so many computations of eight notes.
Mick Jagger
I love country music, but I find it very hard to take it seriously. I also think a lot of country music is sung with the tongue in cheek, so I do it tongue in cheek.
Mick Jagger
Movies in this country, its very complicated, and we could bang on about it forever, but the French movie industry is very different because its very obviously French.
Mick Jagger
Samba rhythm is a great one to sing on, but it's also got some other suggestions in it, an undercurrent of being primitive - because it is a primitive African, South American, Afro-whatever-you-call-that rhythm. So to white people, it has a very sinister thing about it.
Mick Jagger
Music should elevate you. You can be raised, or left stranded. You can't be raised all the time, in my experience. This might be a rare moment. You might just go up to that level but that's always good.
Mick Jagger
I prefer to live in a rented house. No ties. Nothing around my neck. Just the minimum kind of bare comforts of home.
Mick Jagger
Rock has to absorb other rhythmic forms, because the underlying rhythm of music changes with fashion, and people like to move differently, and the underlying rhythms have to be the ones that people want to dance to.
Mick Jagger
I don't really count myself as a very sophisticated businessperson. I'm a creative artist. All I know from business I've picked up along the way.
