also:

"Mick is a fine blues singer but technically not as good as me. He's made the best of what he's got."

sorry if this has been posted.

reading further, he's calling on the Stones to retire already so the Faces can tour.

Nanker's got it right. Maybe if all his albums post 1975 were any good, he might get it.

Maybe it's because he's a Scot? I remember Sir Sean Connery had some trouble getting knighted due to his support to the Scottish National Party. Or maybe he hasn't kissed enough asses...

Once again, the original full interview is in the Radio Times and everyone else is just cherrypicking the "sensational" bits:

Because you're Rod freaking Stewart, not the Rolling Stones. Salieri giving Mozart a hard time.

Rod, as a rule of thumb,
If/when one sticks cocaine up ones behind to get high,
one might not want to share that with the world in one's book.

I like Rod but today Mick is in other league. Maybe his voice is not as strong as Rod voice, but he is a superhuman athlete, a charismathic showman and a great harmonica player.

If you see Mick dancing and singing, you don't feel embarrassed at all. He has power and attitude. He's the @#$%& Mick Jagger, you know? An incredible old man.

You can't say the same about Rod singing Do you think I'm sexy. No Rod, I don't think you are sexy anymore. So stop singing that, and don't shoot to other artists of your generation. At least, Mick has dignity and knows how to age, no botox and scalpel in his face.

While Rod Stewart remains in Vegas the Stones went out to Encounter the world again after 50 years. Who can compete with that???? None of that I know.

I doubt the Queen going through Mick´s musical output through the decades before knighting him!!

Like: "Indeed, Tattoo you" is much better than Baby Jane"!!!!!????

Rod is in a different class to Mick when it comes to being a singer or frontman of a band.
Mick Jagger is the ultimate front man and singer the music world has ever known. He is on his own.
Rod Stewart is an also ran. Good, but not in my top 20. cool smiley

You can't deny that Rod has one of the finest voices in rock.

Well, to be fair, he only took his cocaine up the wazzoo by making little cocaine suppositories. Stevie Nicks apparently had her assistant blow her coke up her ass via a straw.

Apparently the queen was so opposed to knighting Mick that she scheduled elective knee surgery on the day of his investiture. Mick was therefore knighted by HRH prince Charles.

Her objection was allègedly based on Mick's 40 year friendship with her sister Princess Margaret. Her Maj. felt that Mick was a corrupting influence.

In any case, it is not the queen who decides who is knighted. Mick got his knighthood through Tony Blair who is a diehard fan.

Do you have a link for facts to back up that "myth"?

Because you got publicly dumped by a girl Rod...Mick would never get dumped, and if he did, he'd pay to ensure it didn't go public.

Plus Rod cried.

I happen to agree with Keith opinions about Knighthood Mick being Knighted.

"I told Mick it's a paltry honor ... It's not what the Stones is about, is it?" Keith said [www.cnn.com]

Now THAT'S a BADASS ROCK N' ROLL STAR!

(Maybe the Queen would offer to ram the sword right up Rod's...)

Mick is English middle class. Nothing wrong with that at all.
To get a knighthood, is a real honour to him and his family.
Next step up is a Lordship which he would relish, deservedly so,although the House of Lords I reckon should be abolished.
Mick would love it in his retirement, standing up there expressing his views. winking smiley

As a confirmed anglophile, I love almost all things British, but the knighthood thing is not one of them. Here, I am glad to be an American.

I doubt there is anything in Rod's book about Stevie. You made claims about Stevie Nicks. I was asking if you had links to facts to back up the claims, or if they are just myths, which you are repeating.



and I am not worried about anything Rod does or did, I was simply saying... AS A RULE OF THUMB.... one should probably not admit to certain things to the whole world and then later ask "why arent I be Knighted too?"

I'm surprised that Rod sounds like such a jealous @#$%& in that article. I'm reading his bio now, and admittedly, he does have an ego, but he must be on ANGEL DUST if he believes he's a better " blues singer" than Mick!! Balls with no back up. I think he never got over buddy Ronnie joining the Stones!
Second point, the knighthood. I guess Brits deny that it matters but when they're actually nominated for the honor, they go all soft like melting butter! Example: Keith's constantly bitching about Mick copping out etc. Keith would have died to be knighted back when Mick was honored. He would NEVER admit that but it's true....deep down in the cockles of his little heart, he's still pissed about that!!
