What are you listening to ?

Still am left with the mystery of Mr. Jimmy

I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill

We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead"

I said to him

You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You get what you need

Mr. Jimmy could have been a reference to James Whale (22 July 1889 – 29 May 1957)

hmmmm

Another Jimmy.

Jagger hired Miller, a New Yorker then living in London. Bill Wyman remembered: 'During the time under Miller's supervision, the juices began to flow. We were productive and disciplined.'

Miller's first production for the Stones was 'Jumping Jack Flash', released in May 1963. It was a vintage performance which gave the band their first US and UK number one smash hit in two years.

The relationship with the Stones began to break down during the making of Goat's Head Soup (1973), a disappointing album, largely recorded in Jamaica.

Bitch

Sometimes I'm sexy, move like a stud
Like kicking the stall all night
Sometimes I'm so shy, got to be worked on
Don't have no bark or bite, alright


Yeah when you call my name
I salivate like a Pavlov dog
Yeah when you lay me out
My heart is bumpin' louder than a big bass drum, alright

Stones producer Jimmy Miller was expected but never made it to Muscle Shoals. Johnson, who had expected to assist Miller, engineered the sessions. “The Stones came in, and they were a little rusty at first because they hadn’t been practicing on account of the tour,” Johnson told BMI. “It took them some time to get in the groove. On everything they did, they’d be going in all different directions for about two or three hours. So I just took it upon myself to have the tape machine ready and get rolling as soon as they started getting good.

The younglings are listening to music made from recycled music elements from the late 80s and early 90s. Before they were born!

Betsy DeVos seeks to take back, what was paid for, by innocent lives, innocent blood. Betsy, just another feckless cunt, supporting Trump. All American children deserve a good education, and that includes the children sent to Immigrant Prison.
 
She came from Greece she had a thirst for knowledge.
She studied sculpture at Saint Martin's College that's where I, caught her eye.
She told me that her Dad was loaded.
I said in that case I'll have a Rum and Coca-cola.
She said fine, and in thirty seconds time she said.

"I want to live like common people.
I want to do whatever common people do.
I want to sleep with common people.
I want to sleep with common people like you."
What else could I do? I said oh, I'll see what I can do.

I took her to a supermarket
I don't know why but I had to start it somewhere, so it started there.
I said pretend you've got no money and she just laughed, she said "oh you're so funny."
I said yeah? huh, well I can't see anyone else smiling in here.
Are you sure?

You want to live like common people?
You want to see whatever common people see?
You want to sleep with common people?,
You want to sleep with common people, like me?
But she didn't understand, she just smiled and held my hand.

Rent a flat above a shop and cut your hair and get a job.
Smoke some fags and play some pool, pretend you never went to school.
But still you'll never get it right 'cause when you're laying in bed at night watching roaches climb the wall. If you call your Dad he could stop it all. Yeah.

You'll never live like common people
You'll never do whatever common people do
Never fail like common people
You'll never watch your life slide out of view and then dance, drink and screw because there's nothing else to do
.
Sing along with the common people, sing along and it might just get you through
Laugh along with the common people
Laugh along even though they're laughing at you and the stupid things you do. Because you think that poor is cool.
I want to live with common people like you, I want to live with common people like you....
