Singing Want Satisfaction

More From Mick Jagger

You know the one with the big ears? wait a minute, he ain't my president, he might be yours, he ain't my president. you know that woman he had singing for him, singing my song - she's gonna get her a- whipped. the great beyoncé but i can't stand beyoncé. she has no business up there, singing up there on a big ol' president day singing my song that i've been singing forever.
Song Waiting Forever
I've always had great satisfaction out of writing the plays. i've not always had great satisfaction out of seeing them produced-although often i've had satisfaction there. when things go well in production, on opening there's no nicer feeling in the world-what could be nicer than watching an audience respond? you can't that from a book. it's a fine feeling to walk into the theater and see living people respond to something you've done.
Book Writing Play
There is another peculiar satisfaction in really hearing someone: it is like listening to the music of the spheres, because beyond the immediate message of the person, no matter what that might be, there is the universal. hidden in all of the personal communications which i really hear there seem to be orderly psychological laws, aspects of the same order we find in the universe as a whole. so there is both the satisfaction of hearing this person and also the satisfaction of feeling one's self in touch with what is universally true.
Communication Self Order
I read a comment that made me think i should stop singing for a while. and i didn't want to stop singing, because it was the only thing i loved. at first i thought, "maybe i'll get better and eventually please the person who wrote about my singing." but then i thought, "i probably will never please this person. i should just do what pleases me."
Thinking Please Me Singing
Occasionally i play the music for my mother when she demands to hear it and she always just says, 'who is that singing? i don't like the singing.' and then she says 'who's doing all that bumpety-bump noise?' it's all noise backing up horrible singing as far as she's concerned. she's not a show-biz mother.
Mother Play Singing
I have often sung to drown my sorrow, but seldom to express my happiness. crying for joy, and singing for joy, were alike uncommon to me while in the jaws of slavery. the singing of a man cast away upon a desolate island might be as appropriately considered as evidence of contentment and happiness, as the singing of a slave; the songs of the one and of the other are prompted by the same emotion.

In one of my songs, in the song on the "why?" remix that i did with jadakiss in 2004, i said, "why is bush actin' like they tryin' to get osama? why don't we impeach him and elect obama?" this is in 2004 on the "why?" remix and i said that because i really had belief that obama was the right person to be president
Song President Belief
Way back in the day, when i first started and had delusions of adequacy as a cartoonist, i would listen to music. when i switched to a career as a writer, i would try to listen to music, but if the songs had lyrics they would get in the way of the words i was trying to write. so i switched to listening to purely instrumental pieces.

What i don't like is taking it to extremes and making all these intellectualizations about what basically is simple music. it's simple stream-of-consciousness stuff in my songs. what i'm trying to get across is misinterpreted.
