I love it memphiscats, great way of describing Mick's unique turn of phrase. He clearly loves to play around with the english language, there are many great examples of Jaggerisms out there.
Yes! It takes years to decipher some of his lyrics, and then people still argue about what he's saying. But it doesn't matter, it's the way he says them...and it's not just his words, it's all the grunts, growls,and howls. I still smile and sigh when I hear his opening lecherous laugh at the beginning of Stray Cat Blues and I've probably listened to the song a thousand times.
I'm sorry, Mickschix. You will have to look harder then. He does lisp. I think it has to do with the fact that he bit off a bit of the tip of the tongue in his early days. But he's not the only one, lisping is quite common, even among adults. In some countries it's an integral part of the language.
Lwren has a harelip, but not where her mouth is.

What was the amount? Did he make a bunch of money?
Hahahaha,
i think he used his tongue too many times, to please women.
otherwise you havea funny post. Just that is jaggers quality, nottopronounce too well. Its Stones quality, but........ just go to sleep again..

If memory serves, I think the best part of that album was Billy Preston`s mirror-like backup vocals on the inimitable `Ger Offa Ma Clow`.
Yep..that was the "shoutin' an' hollerin' " tour. No attempt to sing whatsoever.

Ever since the B2B tour Mick hasnt sung the line in Sympathy properly. He constantly sings what sounds like "guepp my name". Is he unable to sing the word "guess" anymore?? Listen to any version from the last 10-15 years and hear for yourself.

It's because since then they have been outsourcing the making of such equipment as microphones to China, and the made-in-China mics translate "ss" sounds as "pp" sounds. You can't hear "ll" sounds as well--they sound like "rr" through those made-in-China mics. Have you noticed that Mick sings "prrease to meet you" also?

In 72 (easiest to hear on the Brussels official release) he says "You can't always getch whachuwant". The 'getch' part cracks me up.

Absolutely! He takes a word or a phrase, adds some bluesy southern slosh, then somehow anglophiles it, and then drips it off of his tongue - as only Mick can. Perhaps this requires a writing assignment for 2013: A Stones Guide to Spoken English.Quote

I dont hear a lisp from Jagger either. I just find it funny all those years of singing "guess" he changed it to "guepp".

As silly as this thread seemed you are actually right.
I guepp he will change other songs too....
"I guepp I'm lying to myself, it's just you and no one else"
"We spent a lonely night at the Memory Motel it's on the ocean, I guepp you know it well"
"The telephone is ringing, I say, "Hi, it's me. Who is it there on the line?"
A voice says, "Hi, hello, how are you? Well, I guepp I'm doin' fine"

To digress...When I mess about playing (guitar) and singing BEAST OF BURDEN, I sometimes mistakenly sing the "walk for miles" line first, when "my back is broad" actually comes first. So I was heartened when during a BIGGER BANG show I saw, Mick made the same mistake.
