Who sang moves like jagger
People didn't think they were, but I thought they were tame. But all those songs we sang were pretty tame, really. I'm being me and ordinary, the guy from suburbia who sings in this band, but someone older might have thought it was just the most awful racket, the most terrible thing, and where are we going if this is music?. I wasn't trying to push the edge of anything. I wasn't trying to be rebellious in those days I was just being me. Compared to other rock stars with a "bad" image Jagger has never been really behaved arrogant, spiteful or waspish against journalists or his fans. As Jagger and his original target audience got older his anti-establishment faded away and we must also add that a lot of it was exaggerated in the popular press as well.
This was not only due to the Sex, Drugs and Rock & Roll and anarchist violent lyrics of the Stones themselves, but also because he and the band members were arrested a few times for things that nowadays would be considered minor offences (urinating against a benzine station, marijuana possession.), but nevertheless solidified his reputation as a bad but lovable cool boy.
