Not to be controversial but I prefer ass to them.

That smile. He's so proud of himself for that answer, and honestly, he should be.

Man, interviewers have been pulling this crap for too long.

Zero-sum thinking.

He was a handsome bloke

That's one way of saying it. I would say almost girl pretty.

I would've loved for him to lock eyes with the camera and said, "Of course we're better. The Beatles are a shitty jam band."
ratfaceddog
“Jam band” would have confused the shit out of him in 1964.

"Do you think you do what you want to do better than they do what they want to do?" "Do you have any idea how ridiculous that question is?"

The winking look at the end is pure Mick
Yep, that’s him, alright.

Ah, so you've met my ex!

Can't be as bad as my ex

His sexy persona overshadowed the fact that he was a very wry and clever fellow. It took me a while to discover this.

Yeah I don’t know much about them but I have to say I’m surprised that he seems so thoughtful, I assumed would be dumb rock meathead
Check out "Muscle Shoals" if you can.

I fucking hate reporters like this. "I don't mean to labour the point, but... I'm going to labour the point to get a reaction out of you."
I apologize but *belabour
ItsCaptain0bvious
Sports reporters seem to be getting worse too "You seem disappointed, is it because the visitors double scored you again?"
WhyWeDoThis
But why not just call out that interviewer on that?

Saw them on the "Steel Wheels" tour. ZZ Top opened, it was epic.
GravyEducation
They did a show here a few years back but who has that kinda money...
WackyTicTacCasualty
Mick Jagger?
Yeah The Stones

Fishammer
If I had deep fake skills, he would say “The Clash is clearly the only band that matters.”
Vergenbuurg
From what I understand, both groups greatly respected each other. Lennon-McCartney even wrote the Rolling Stones' first top-20 [UK] hit.

That interviewer was a fucking asshole
maddaddamage
We aren’t interested in diplomatic answers and it was the interviewer’s job to get a different one.
Imgerruinedimger
Right?! How many times does a dude have to dodge the same freaking question. Move on!

Radio personalities were also douches, trying to stir up drama or talk about musician's families. First time people felt increasing access.
There are a loooot of terrible interviews. I watched a bunch of DePeche Mode interviews on YouTube and see why they stopped taking them.

After hearing John Mulaney’s take on Mick, I think Mick has turned out to be an even bigger one nowadays.

Much more diplomatic than John Lennon. "Is Ringo the best drummer in the world?" "Ringo isn't even the best drummer in the Beatles"
electrajet
Of course, he never said that...but who's counting? https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/john-lennon-ringo-best-drummer/

That's an example of British humour. Pulling the piss out of mates.
No there's clearly a right answer as to whom is better. It's whomever you think is better and fuck anyone who shits on your tastes
Rignak
That's basically what he said
KrondorMocker
Why would I want to fuck them?
The old “pretend to take ‘fuck’ literally” gag never gets old!
Oh, for the kind of people who still think that kind of thing is funny, the “/s” is probably necessary.
crypresthesia
Some people are into that kind of thing. Not gonna kinkshame someone for havin' a shame kink.
They haven't even bought me dinner yet
Also depends on era. Early Beatles were shit. Campy ass 3 chord rock with zero originality. Just a boy band. Then they found psychedelics...
RobotMenace
They wrote I Wanna Be Your Man so were obviously capable of more in the early days.
Eh, not saying they didn't have ANY good songs, just that they got better as they went. Also, bad example. The Stones version was better lol
The Beatles never asked the Stones for a song, as far as I know.
I picked it as an example because it was written by them for the Stones. The animosity was manufactured and not between the bands.
You have no idea what you’re talking about, but I’d love to hear your “three chord” versions of the songs. That was only true of a small
handful. As for the “boy band” nonsense, you either don’t know what a boy band is or you don’t know anything about the Beatles’ history.
Uh oh, I upset A beatles fangirl.
I am a fan, but not a “girl.” Yeah, I realize you meant it as an insult. You’re just an all-around dumbfuck, huh?
I always preferred the Stones because I love the blues. "All my Love in Vain" was one of my favorites to learn. Beatles got good shit too
Yeah for sure. They had a lot of great blues influence and it shows.
Dear god I don’t want to get into nitpicking terminology but that song is not blues. Nothing I’ve heard by the stones is blues
You must be a wonderful person to play with being so rigid Mr. Fucking Salieri
It’s a Robert Johnson cover you dolt.
Like I said, I spent a long time learning that song. It's classic blues. That guy got a rage on for the Stones
