Much of the Goats Head Soup album is awash with bizarre accents which would give the impression that Mick had temporarily developed some form of minor speech defect, most notably on 'Winter', '100 years Ago', 'Can you hear the music' and 'Hide your love'.....

Its brilliant the way he sings..he like...changes the words and mis-pronounces them to make it sound weird and if i may say so really cool. Its been long known to many that they cant understand what hes ACTUALLY singing (ie: Whoopi Goldburg asking mick to "speak english!" while he's singing in the shower in her movie Jumpin Jack Flash)
He also removes ends of words or makes them singular in plural tenses, i love it.
Just Some examples:

Peapple sey im kqrazy, alway try to wais meh, done cha knou da douce is still roun'
Chu got ta roll meh
ya mede a grow man cra!
jubbijakflash! (adlibbing at the end of JJF)
its AW.............AWL righ-igh nowow
iiiii can'a geet noo..
though i twy..though i twy (bridges to babylon dvd satisfaction)
Chu got me Rockin now
Plea allow me to inero douce masel..ima man of weal and tase
Plead to meet choo...hope ya gepped ma nae!
GO CO SLA SHII BAMMA CODDON FIEL! SOL IN DA MARKE DOW IN NEW ORLEAN! (Twik-dvd BS)

Then there are his little phrases and call-outs:

COMEON BAYBAY!
Shuga Down!
Rock it up now!
ALrigh' pooh bear! (bridges to babylon dvd during JJF talking to keith haha)
TU UP BAYBAY! (not sure what it means...but its during JJF toronto rocks..)
Alrigh take it down now!
to the bridge!!
YEAH take it KEITH
alrigh, play ya guitar! (HTW MSG 03)

Is this a serious thread? Are we talking about Mick singing the words correctly or the same way each time? This can't be serious. Half the time he doesn't even sing the words he just kind throws out syllables here and there. How many versions of "Jumping Jack Flash" is there floating around where he is just shouting out every other word at the end. It's a part of his charm as a performer.
