Hey Hairball, I normally dig your erudite posts, but for a guy who has mentioned (numerous times) that you don't care for Scarlet, you sure do seem to be on this thread posting a lot.

Just let it go man. Listen to any other of the Stones' beautiful hits and get happy.

"Movie actors do nothing for a living, so when you ask them to do nothing, they expect to be paid for it." — Andy Warhol

A quote that came to mind after watching the video.

Damn fine song.....

Dont worry Mr Zimmerman did a
Kids video with for Duquesne Whistle ....one watch was enough

All I know is I can't get the song out of my head.

Agree, only heard it once before (I intentionally didn't want to tire of it, i.e. waiting for the GHS release to hear it altogether) but since the video was posted I just listened 2 more times. It is now stuck in my head ... which is a good thing!

Video is fine w/ me, why not appeal to a younger audience? I've never really been a video guy anyway and am still surprised how many people care about them.

Oh, and "why you wearing my heart ... on your sleeve" is 100% a modern day Jagger lyric. I know most know this already but just pointing it out in case some still have a doubt.

BTW, best Stones video ever? ... She Was Hot!

I love the song but the video is kinda stupid and very boring

The thread happens to be a "sticky" and the topic is ever evolving with a new remix practically every other day (original, BBC, single, etc.), and now a new video to top it all off.
Had it been just the original tune itself I'd understand your point, but with so many new twists and turns on a daily basis there's always something new to comment on.
As I said earlier, now that this chapters over (or is it?) with the multiple remixes, video, etc, hopefully they'll move on to whatever's next with the GHS deluxe.
And by doing so there will be something new to comment on. Meanwhile, currently listening to Criss Cross, Ghost Town, and Happy (not all at the same time ) - that's enough to make most any Stones fan happy!

Is it really? I didn't interpret it that way. I'm not a big Dylan fan but there is always some kind of meaning or message in his songs or videos. Sir Michael is more of a businessman.
He is following a trendy 2020 drama series here. Trying to capitalize on that in order to reach a younger, preferably female, audience. Or maybe I'm just a cynic...

I get slang between the different countries so confused...

Does "cynic" where you're at mean basically.. disrespectful arsehole??
If so, totally agree.

Watch your language, Mr DDDD.

The song is great, and it became available the day an aunt died, i will remember this song to her. It has a lot heart in its lyrics

My ONLY criticism of the Paul Mescal video for Scarlet is that he didn't strip down to show us some more of...him....he's a hottie.

Hahaha my sentiments exactly! When the whip comes down that is!

I need more negativity about the song and the video!
This forum must be coherent!!
Compliments and praises to every new boring Dylan's album (and others)...and negativity to every new Stones track!
C'mon!!!

I do prefer this War on Drugs remix to the version that was originally released. Although its more obvious here the new Jagger vocals- I think the ad-lib stuff in the outtro sounds like modern-day Jagger and not 74 Jagger

I don't think there was no "74 Jagger" on this track at all.

Yeah you're probably right!

I like the song but not the video...

Claridge's London.

The new videos are aimed at perpetrating the sex,drugs&r&R in the 21century. Mick Jagger or the advisors at UMG probably wanted sexy& wild images to back up the sexy&wild music from 74.

Capture of the interview. Not great, sorry if there are some pop-ups and hickups

yes maybe and if that is the case they completely succeed with the criss cross video which is genuinely wild and free both in form and imagery while the scarlet one lacks any edge, nothing wild in it unless you consider wild jumping more than three steps in a ladder, and the actor looks off most of the time by the way. boring, imo.

Watched Scarlet with my 18 year old. She loved the video, and she hasn't even watched Normal People

We're off the Zeitgeist, methinks, hehe.
