What happened to the Mick Jagger who once said he couldn’t give a fuck about being singing like Tom Jones?!! I don’t have the exact quote, but he also said he didn’t have to sing the words clearly as long as people got the point - like in SATISFACTION.
Now he over- enunciates like crazy. The dragging out of every syllable in STREETS OF LOVE gets annoying. Give us more ROUGH JUSTICE.
P.S. Also, right now I don’t think RJ measures up to DON’T STOP. |

To me Mick`s singing is getting better on and on. Watch him in Stray Cat Blues from FF, his vibrato in "its no hanging M}A}T}T}E}R...". I always play "air vibrato" in that part.

yeah kmc - that affected voice he uses to convey emotion.....
hate it, its not natural, and he seems to have adopted it permanently |

i agree 100% - I first noticed MJ adopted that "affected mannered style" on parts of the Dirty Work album (Hold Back comes to mind). It became the prominent style on his first solo album. I don't even think he's conscious of it anymore - it's just his new style - and IT SUCKS. If I had never heard him sing before I would never have gotten interested in this band. Same problem afflicts Bono, Sting and a handful of others who I cannot tolerate. Both Bono and Sting have wonderful "natural" singing styles that they almost never use, btw...what a waste. |

yep T&A, once again, syncronicity....
she's the boss was the first nail in the coffin - that's when that guy killed mick jagger and started singing on stones albums; its hideous, although there are a few occasions where its dropped.....out of focus from WS, sad,sad,sad from ST - but now, the guy has become a fixture..
can you make it through brand new set of rules?
try it some time..... |

touchez, textile. i honestly don't know how longtime Stones fans can even listen to more than 30 seconds of Jagger singing on SOL without heaving or turning the thing off. they are made of stronger stuff than I..... |

HELLO!
MICK uses different singing/voice styles for different songs!
In Streets of Love MICK delivers a crystal clear sound, and in Rough Justice it's a like a fuzz vocal effect.
MICK's voice sounds beautiful on both songs, yet completely different. That's pure talent, man.

Funny how Mick's voice is less mannered on Rj than on You Got me rocking for instance (I think those two aren' very different)...May be their priority was to give a great sound to the band, and not to focus on their singer 's voice like on VL .. |

exile, i only WISH i was that easy to please......
right now, i've got ry cooder on my cd player;

you people seem to think we don't like jagger's voice - i LOVE the guy's voice, but there are times, LOTS of times, when he affects some weird, phony voice, and i don't buy it, i disregard it;
i'll praise the stones when i'm impressed, not when im "grateful" - jeez - can't anybody be discriminating? |

I've listened to RJ twice on these downloaded mp3's... SOL zero times. I've decided to wait for the CD. The negativity is bringing me down and I don't want to develope any pre-conceived ideas from bad quality mp3's of a couple of songs. |

Patience and forming your own opinions, much respect. Too bad others here can't follow suit. There's two or three posters who haven't overstated their case on disliking the new music and described why. The rest are just redundant. |

Mick´s live voice is the best of rock´n´´roll. In the studio, sometimes he´s not so good.After She´s the boss and onwards his style of sing became worst in few tracks but in Voodoo lounge especally in Love is strong and Moon is Up he back to the top. |

that is correct TD - and moon is up IS a great vocal on his part because it sounds authentic....since 85 - they are few and far between;
chaeck out his vocal on the acoustic version of blind leading the blind on the ....(i know, i know,)ALFIE soundtrack - it's the real shit.
but THIS sol shit is hideous. |
