come to think about it....Easy Sleazy could have been a Stones track...and a good one....have to wonder wtf is wrong with the others that Mick had to release this one on his own...

Yeah, where the hell is my EazySleazy t-shirt? The mug? Where is my red vinyl version of it (among other physical versions)? Where is the booklet, where is the box?
Funnily, Mick made here a total anti-thesis in regard to release policy of catalogue artists (and of their record companies milking out any possible cent out of the fans of their old clients). All we have is just to listen (or watch) the damn song, if we will. How boring is that?

Just an opinion based on everything else he and the Stones have ever released - has Mick or the Stones ever given any recorded music away for free?
Can't think of anything, but maybe there was something for a charity?
Free Concert Hyde Park 1969
Gimme Shelter (live 26.11.89, Death Valley Stadium, Clemson) 1993 Food Charity-cassette release
Fancy Man Blues - After The Hurricane - Songs For Montserrat 1990 Charity album
Exile On Main Street Blues - Free NME Flexi 1972
Keith Richards - Hurricane CD - available at some venues during the Rolling Stones 2005-2006 US tour if given donations through Red Cross to the Hurricane Katrina relief
There may be more, but that's all I can remember at the moment.

Didn’t they do a Nicaragua benefit when there was an earthquake there? (Bianca’s homeland)

Mick should be focusing on a new Stones album. It has been 15 years
in the making.

Agreed.
Having watched Easy Sleazy video again today as it popped up on my yotube page after avoiding it since a few days after it's release, I have to stand by my first impressions.
It's awkward, contrived, forced, and lyrically/musically nowhere near as good as Ghost Town, though no doubt better than Getta Grip/England Lost, so hats off for the improvement.
Old man Jagger dragging the much younger Grohl along to hopefully give it some credibility for much younger rock fans...hmmm...it's terrible, and just makes me yearn for some legitimate new Stones material even more.

Release this classic Mick single ASAP,limited edition coloured vinyl will suffice.
Pure Jagger genius.Those lyrics are as relevant as anything and so funny.Sad that some on this board don’t get it.

Dude. We have enough negative energy on this planet. We all know about your opinions. Just take it down a notch on - at least on this forum. Thanks.

Like many, I agree. But you're wasting your time appealing to him. There’s nothing as self-satisfied as a Hairball post which means he's not about to change. Other people mean nothing to him. He’s truly a cancer on this forum.

The "cancer on this forum" is the escalating personal attacks and insults against members whose opinions don't align lock step with the mob here. Hairball can fight his own battles but he shouldn't have to. He doesn't agree with you and states his opinion, so that makes him a "cancer". No surprise as I've been told to kill myself by another know-it-all who disagreed with me in another thread. This forum pretty much reeks now. And I agree with Hairball. I don't care for this song or the video. Deal with it.

Let's get back on topic. Still loving Mick's new tune, and he deserves credit for his guitar track (open G) as well as his remarkable vocals
