Love seeing Mick so down to earth and being himself.

Mick's moves where always part of what made his performance so unique.

I remember seeing him on some award show, on TV, a few years back. He was alone on this gigantic stage, and there was nothing as electrifying as this guy strutting along with immense bravado, and taking command of the crowd in seconds just via his body language… it was absolutely incredible.

Mick is so fun. I love how he talks frankly about himself so down to earth.

Seeing the Stones live during Steel wheels, I was mesmerized by all of Mick and his moves. Interview was outstanding and I’ve heard almost all of them over the years.

Thanks Mick for decades of entertainment... we miss you Charlie

[Brew]

Still the greatest frontman in rock n roll.

Just watched Crossfire Hurricane, a documentary film on the Stones. A must see for any Stones fans, well worth watching.

3 people influenced Mick. First- Brian Jones. At the start, Mick was timid but Brian would get in the face of the audience at clubs and smack the tambourine to rile the audience up. Mick then did more of the same 2nd - James Brown. Seeing him at the Apollo in 64 and then sharing the stage at Tami show later the same year. 3rd - Tina Turner. They were backing up the Stones in 66 and Mick took many of Tina’s feminine antics and made it his own

Mick’s dancing was also inspired by TINA TURNER!

Mick, trop bon de t'écouter parler de ta vie hors du commun en toute simplicité, et de te voir rendre hommage à tous ces artistes incroyables qui nous ont fait tellement de bien.

[johnwatts]

i love mick taylor, as for mick j, forget about it, just wow, what an utter f**kin legend, best / greatest rock star of them all.

Years ago I remember reading that Mick would sing while he ran for exercise to build stamina for all the Jagger moves....

[chrisbrimhall]

Exactly what Elvis said about him moving around stage....the music drives me

[palacerevolution]

J said "Prince had that certain mic move down" - Prince had everything down.

[Song]

You have to study Mick Jagger as an artist 💜

[JustinTNAWWEGuy]

He needs to give Howard at least two more hours
