MICK JAGGER unveiled a surprise for his fans worldwide in the form of the instant release of a track titled ‘Eazy Sleazy.’ The tune written by Mick in lockdown features Jagger on vocals & guitar in collaboration with FOO FIGHTERS main man DAVE GROHL providing his signature powerhouse drums, guitar and bass too. ‘Eazy Sleazy’ is every inch a song of our times, full of caged energy, a rock ‘n’ roll attitude and tongue in cheek, satirical messaging. MJ muses about the life we’ve all been living with deliciously dark sardonic humour. He reflects on a world of ‘zoom calls’, ‘home in these prison walls’, poncey books, fake applause and too much TV. With optimism and change in sight he looks forward to the world beyond lockdown and the “garden of earthly delights” that lies beyond.
