"They wrote our first hit." Gratitude. Beautifully said.
Mick seems truly honored to be inducting the beatles into the rock and roll hall of fame.....Nice job mick.
ok
stegsify Mick Jagger is jealous of The Beatles. Always was, always will be.
Revolver you're funny
Revolver there is always that one bitter fanboy. Shut up
stegsify love the stones
Who knew that Mick was so eloquent?
Nice speech.
Rafael S He's very intelligent
Musicians back then weren't like musicians today. They were well-educated, intelligent, articulate people who wrote their own music because they were genuinely innovative and creative people who were absolute scholars of classical/romantic music, which was basically what their genre of music was. Bands like the Stones and the Beatles basically got their sounds by combing elements of the blues that they loved, with the classical music styles they learned in school.
He's a successful lyricist from a middle class English background, and has a degree in economics, so it's no surprise that he's good with words lol
@@panzerkind2190 I don't agree that most musicians were well-educated. Most didn't even finish school :D
@@valentins.2637Many went to art school :)
Jagger just hits every note perfectly with this speech. Doubt anyone could have done a better job than this.
😊😊😊😊v😂l😢🎉
😅😅gi😊
It was beautiful.
If you start him up, he'll never stop!
Very nice speech from Mick... he seems truly humble paying tribute to the Fabs.
Yes Absolutely beautiful. it's a powerful message!
sorry, did he actual talk about them, i thought it was hid award,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
He gives them credit the whole speech.
Tattyshoes Shigure hoy teacher leave them kids alone!
Very humid and very real even after all this pain and this is a few years ago I’ve loved him for the beginning you know who is grateful for what they’ve
This is great. Only a Rolling Stone is worthy enough to induct the Beatles...
👏👏👏👏
Correct.
Kaneyaugustus1 in Mick's own words: "The Beatles wrote the song who gave us, the Stones, our big break."
of course
Or a member from zeppelin, just saying.
This speech was just filled to the brim with class. Great job, Mick! Proud of you!
Absolutely
Mick's humility touched my heart. I love Mick more than ever after hearing how generous he is here to The Beatles. True greatness.
Right. He wasn't the usual flashy rock star. He was just a guy humbly talking about the Beatles as a fan and friend. Nice job, Mick.
Wow...Mick is such an eloquent speaker. What a perfect speech. Lots of humor but he shared some actual history of the Beatles as well as personal memory of knowing them. His level of respect for them was evident in his words. Some of these induction speeches are boring, lame or disrespectful. Mick nailed it!! :)
+Dream On yeah i liked it very much too, ... very sincere
Mick obviously admired them , and it went both ways . I remember Mick & George were the competitive ones back then . I have never heard Mick say any thing bad about anyone , he is always soft and very well spoken ..
Admired them? Ripped them off on every level. I do agree with Richard Smith, though. Peace eeeearrrnd love.
Dream On o
Be fair. The Beatles never wrote Gimme Shelter. Beast of Burden. Sympathy For The Devil. Tumblin Dice. It's not one or the other. Both were part of the amazing Rock panopoly that just inspired each other and created a tapestry of music for decades to come.
My son asked me the other day, what McJagger's first name was.
That is too funny.
+Richard Venora hahaha
God bless him... the little creature.
Richard Venora the Jagger swagger ! The best front man in rock and roll !
lmao
The Beatles were an undisputably great band,and The Rolling Stones were an undisputably great band.
Both changed the history of music. We love both. Stop comparing them all the time!
Hi, Ak Ak: Its human nature to compare. Having said that, Mick graciously admitted that the Beatles opened the doors for them. Your right, there is no comparison between the 4-headed monster and the Stones. In short, no Beatles, no Stones. Have a great day!
@@paulstewart8947 I prefer the Fab Four,but it's bad that everyone compares them so much that they forget how much geniuses both bands were
@@h96573: Hi Ak. Thanks for your reply. I also prefer the Fab Four by far. While the Stones have a long history and the fact that they are still touring around world today speak volumes about them. Having said that, when one complies all of the songs written and released by both Beatles and Stones, there simply is no comparison. I do appreciate that Mick was honest in saying that the Beatles opened the doors for them. Take care and have a great day!
@@paulstewart8947 dear Paul, indeed, The Beatles' songs are no comparison with the ones the Stones wrote. They both greatly influenced rock music, and must get the most sincere congratulations for the masterpieces they've created. Rock on!
The Rolling Stones changed nothing
I love this speech. I can only imagine how The Beatles unnerved every musician around them and pushed them to do their best.
kind of pathetic how most the comments are just taking sides. This was a beautiful heartfelt speech. The Stones and the Beatles are both fantastic, don't waste anyone's time arguing who is better.
They are both great bands. I can't imagine picking 1 over the other to be honest with you.
It's comparing apples to oranges - they're completely different bands from start to finish.
It's unfortunate that people make comparisons since they are both from the same era and were personally connected, because musically they are in two different universes.
***** Could I get extra ketchup on my burger please
+
***** Agree! ..I don't understand peoples need to compare musicians. Both great groups
Beatles, Stones, Zeppelin, The Who and The Kinks... The greatest of the British invasion.
***** Never heard of it... I'll Google it right now.
The Kinks were banned from the U.S. so unfortunately they did not invade. Quite a shame.
Marco Santiesteban BANNED?... Never knew that... The ban didn't last too long, cause I saw them LIVE back in 1983
I guess it was relatively short, but the timing was just awful.
Marco Santiesteban I hate to admit it, but Elton John had some great hits too.
If you like The Rolling Stones,
Listen to them.
If you like The Beatles,
Listen to them.
If you like both,
Listen to them.
Stop comparing.
***** fuck it. The Kinks are better.
Agree
Hippie Guy Could I get extra ketchup on my burger please
Sean Bergeron We don't sell them to people with diabetes anymore. Sorry.
Hippie Guy what are you guys on about, Gerry and the pacemakers were clearly the best, closely followed by Herman's Hermits of course!
Mick’s tribute is funny, respectful, irreverent. Love watching his tribute. ❤
Especially when Mick pauses, holds on his hand out and expresses the name of the town of Liverpool. The crowd roars with laughter. This has got to be one of my favorite speeches of another Rock star inducting the greatest group.
You can see how sincere Mick is here when he speaks about how The Beatles blazed the trail in America for all the British bands that followed them their success later. Also great that Mick mentions that it was Lennon and McCartney that gave the Stones their very first hit with: "I Wanna Be Your Man."
BradWietersen lol u joking for sure
Yeah I heard that as well
You can feel Mick Jagger's love and Awe - his electrified amazement and heart shows. So does his depth and intelligence. Humble and heartfelt LOVE for the miracle of The Beatles
Hi there.. how are you doing? Happy new year with good health and prosperity
I love listening to Mick, he’s always been eloquent and speaks about the Beatles with great respect!
The comment section clearly didn't get the british banter Jagger was oozing here. The ribbing and playful mockery were actually a good indicator of how well the beatles and the stones get along (and they hung out a lot back in the days) and were clearly good mates who enjoyed taking the piss out of each other
Mick is so gracious here, admitting so much how the Beatles led the way.
There will never be another Mick Jagger ❤
Mick Jagger seems half nervous, half full of confident prowess
It is called cocaine
It's strange... He's confident when making the jokes and more nervous when he's being serious
I like the Beatles and the stones
@@mariocassina90 this is highly accurate
@@sasapekic7034 How dare you say you like both. You are supposed to argue for eternity who is greater then throw in Dylan and so forth.
I think you can listen to this speech 100 years from now and it will still be fantastic.
It was the Beatles and the Stones, both bands who selfishly stood up for each other. Both great bands who will live forever, like Mozart.
selflessly ?
Comparing them to Mozart, that was cute
And I fuck off
austin teutsch sorry but the Rolling Stones will not live forever in the same light as Mozart. The Beatles, on the other hand, might well do...
Well said. bravo
GREAT great induction speech...mick did a great job,...funny...sincere....from the heart...charming...best HOF induction speech ever...
Mick Jagger: One of the best frontman
Actually. he is the best frontman to have ever existed.
Herdiegsa amen
He is the BEST, Robert Plant would be second.
Guys i think u forgot freddie mercury
@@franegobin8195 personally I don't consider Freddie a real rock front man, so much of his music and personna reminded me of a Las Vegas show tune act performer , I think he is highly overrated
What a wonderful, gracious little speech, overflowing with class and gratitude. Mick's eloquence is well known, and it really shines here. This also reflects the fact that, contrary to widespread belief, the Beatles and Stones were good friends. Yes, they had a rivalry ... but it was a *friendly* rivalry.
Mick Jagger is an amazing bloke. famous but such a natural person
naturally he is. an authentic person, bornm on the most favourable date I can imagine (it´s my birthday as well... 26.07.!!!! in the "Quersumme" this is 33. 33 becomes 6 (which is the favourite number of a former friend of mine who I still love from all of my heart..... Any questions???? I know I am a bit weird, but at least to myself everything has reached the form of a balloon by now and I feel like being able to "rule the world"....
Love you Mick ❤️❤️❤️
Prolly cause he wasn't expecting to be famous
Especially when hes knocking up underaged girls
@@GavinJ37 and is on the flight logs to Epstein's pedo island. Good ol' Sir Mick.
I saw John with Yoko, Ringo with his All Starrs, and Paul with Wings. I'm a lucky man.
Did they see you? No? OK...
teppolundgren Did you see em? No? OK then...
fishinsolitude I've seen Paul and Ringo, and yes, they did see me.
John was apparently cremated, so I never got a chance to dig him up.
Of course, he wouldn't have seen me, even if I had.
I saw Santa Claus who gives a shit!!!
That was ugly. Nasty person.
I fell very lucky to have had The Beatles AND The Rolling Stones writing the soundtrack of my teenage years and beyond. Unforgettable Music from The Beatles and fantastic live performances from The Rolling Stones.
+Andrew Brennan The Stones suck live. Have since 1972.
+Andrew Brennan - Saw The Rolling Stones last year. Didn't really expect much but was happily surprised. An overall strong performance!
Hi Lynn, how's your collection of Monkees memorabilia going? Did you get Mickey Dolenz's other brown sock? Asking for a friend.
"Lynn Turman4 years ago
+Andrew Brennan The Stones suck live. Have since 1972."
They were spot-on when I saw them at Wembley in the mid-90s.
@@rattusnorvegicus4380 It must have been great. And years later, we got Shine a light as documentary evidence!
As classy and respectful as the speech was my favorite part was when Mick said" They were a four-headed monster that never went anywhere alone at this point.....and they had on these beautiful, long black leather trench coats-...I could really die for one of those...and I thought even if I have to learn to write songs I'm gonna get this."
We should all be as respectful as to this prolonged argument, as the humble respect that Mick Jagger demonstrates here.
Mick Jaggar clarifies it all here.
Jagger has been around long enough to not be crass or flippant . .good on him for being a gentleman . .but he still has that glint in his eye . . excellent intro . .
How lovely to hear such genuine affection from Mick for the Beatles.
Stones, Dylan, Beatles.. Thanks for the Music!!
Mick, thanks for honoring the Beatles so beautifully. 🌹
By 1988, the boys were adults and had matured a great deal. The general public may not know that Mick is highly educated. He has a degree from the London School of Economics. We aren't a bit surprised that he was a class act with this induction. Way to go Mick....well done! Peace to all. Hugs.
I agree. This is a fine speech. I like the line "They were the four headed monster. They always went everywhere together." And although the Stones out did the Beatles in scruffiness they had more affluent backgrounds than did any of the Fab Four who came from hard scrabble working class Liverpoole families. Ringo and George both dropped out before graduating from high school. None of them spent time in college. And yet they wrote some of the most sophisticated pop music ever to be heard.
They had 20 number one hits in eight years. No other act comes close. The Beatles output was astonishing. They recorded 215 songs in that short time period.
Sometimes you'll hear people say they're over rated. Sometimes I think so too but then I go back and listen to some of the music they did and their progression from teeny bopper songs like "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" and "She Loves You" which have a nice driving dance beat and good guitar riffs to more complicated pieces found on their later works found on Rubber Soul, Revolver and Abbey Road. They were constantly evolving and getting better. I think they broke up at the right time. The Beatles as a group retired at the top of their game.
Thanks for your wonderful response. I loved "Revolver"...this is when I feel , "The Beatles" were in transition musically.
Blaster Dan Yes, Ringo came from a poor family and Paul's family was near-poor following his mother's death. John and Paul both lost their mothers while in their teens, and John and Ringo came from broken homes. George was the only one who had a happy home free of tragedy.
+Maye McDonald Mick dropped out of LSE long before getting his degree to concentrate on his music.
He attended the London School of Economics but didn't graduate. He left for music though he was doing very well. Mick is extremely intelligent.
beatles and the stones were a major part of my youth and they make feel younger even at 65. thank you lads for the great music and memories, it never gets old.
Truth Indeed AMEN
Perhaps one of the best induction speeches ever. A very gracious, eloquent and humor filled presentation.
Heart warming. And rises my respect and apreciation for Mick Jagger.
He is really great!
It's always been my impression that Jagger was more envious of the Beatles than anything else.
That said, he did this respectfully and well. If I had a hat 30 years ago, I would have taken it off.
It’s always been my impression Lennon was envious of the Stones, especially Mick.
@Ken Cheek The Beatles is overrated anyway.
Ken Cheek
"
@@alexdelarge703 your kidding,right? Lennon was vastly superior to Mick in songwritting, singing and as a musician. Jagger didn't even write music, just lyrics. How many stone songs did Jagger write the music for?
@Ken Cheek agree. Terrible speech. He gave like two minor compliments. I don't get why all these comments are praising this speech. I also recall an interview here with John where he said the Stones had said some negative things about the beatles, and it hurt him
What a perfect speech from the best front man ever to the best pop band ever.
Paul McCartney and George Harrison both had the same music teacher in school. She said in reference to the two of them before superstardom how they had no real abilities in music. She was wrong.
Stephen Springer lol elvis’ music teacher said the same thing and failed him HAHAAAAA! But that’s cool the Beatles had the same thing happen to them! What a coincidence!
it's because the mind is what creates music.
They probably had shitty minds at the time.
The lady was probably right
Stephen Springer why didnt that music teacher become a comedian???
@Boss_Man_T Exactly. I don't think most people understand that. I know several very talented musicians but they can't write a song to save their life. They just play other people's material. Songwriting is a whole other skill and The Beatles had it in spades.
At audition DECCA records rejected the Beatles before EMI/ Capitol later signed them up.
Mick Jagger, That was a gorgeous speech. Heartfelt. And humorous - "four headed monster"! This guy is a phenomenal talent - a true great - yet he was completely humble and beautiful. Just to hear his appreciation makes life worth living.
I really the Beatles and the Stones...the good times...not the idol worship of mistakes of mortals....but I love the energy and the sounds of a generation trying to figure it out like we all do at our best.
Mick is such a class act. What a great video and a fantastic moment is musical history. Much love to both bands.
Nice to hear the real Mick, he has a twinkle in his eyes , a smile on his face ,,,what a nice guy !
Mick's expression here while giving speech are Oscar worthy...
great introduction mick well done thanks.
Brilliant! Lovely words of Mick Jagger!
Mick Jaggers Brilliant
Remember back in the 60's, when we were playing cover songs in grubby bars around London, and we met the Beatles and then we all became the biggest, most popular music stars ever and we changed the face of pop music?
Good times, man.
Mick is pure class i was a Beatles fan the most but i also had great respect for the Stones Mick was one of the finest front men ever.
Mick is a highly intelligent and engaging speaker.....also a great leader ; one of the reasons the Stones are still at the top of their game in 2018. He is a bit of an icon in the music business and can teach a lot about how to be successful and survive in business and life in general.....
Great speech Mick, love your sense of humour, I was a Stones fan at School when i first heard Paint it Black, although i love the Beatles as well.
all these years after the fact... class act Jagger...my compliments. I had never heard this speech till now...and remember all the talk about the rival growing up in their time.
I remember the talk about rivalry yet don't remember talk about friendship between the groups. The speech was as much insightful as it was gracious. We got insight into the real way it was. Thank you Mick!
When I was a teenager, there was a lot of great music ( how lucky I was to be alive during that era) but the Beatles ruled everything. It was all about the Beatles. No argument, they changed the world !
Mick is just a great classy man, best induction ever
That was an extraordinary speech. The tone of genuine, heartfelt respect and awe (from Mick Jagger, no less!) makes me respect him ever more than before, and makes me appreciate even more how great the Beatles truly were. And he is.
Mick Jagger was various generous toward The Beatles in this speech.
To credit The Beatles with encouraging Jagger and Richards to write music was also wonderful.
A very genuine tribute from one of the greatest rockers of all time.
Love The Beatles. Love Mick and the Stones. Great musicians!
Mick Jagger had this to say about The Beatles to Jann Wenner in a Rolling Stone Magazine interview in 1995- "The Beatles were so big that it’s hard for people not alive at the time to realize just how big they were. There isn’t a real comparison with anyone now. I suppose Michael Jackson at one point, but it still doesn’t seem quite the same. They were so big that to be competitive with them was impossible."
And he was 100% correct, The Beatles were the biggest entertainment/artistic entity on the planet, nobody- Sinatra, Elvis, The Stones, John Wayne, Steve McQueen, Elizabeth Taylor, etc., could come close during their time. They received front page news when they hit a city on tour. World leaders wanted to meet them. Scholars studied their work. All of this fame without the internet, social media, cell phones or computers, digital cameras, cable TV, etc. Add to this fame the fact that they had 100% artistic control, and redefined popular music whenever they came out with an album. Jagger was right in 1995, and it applies now; nobody can compare toThe Fab Four, even in 2022.
Your not going to say anything bad about me are you -george harrison
Gaby H You’re
First heard both bands in the 60's. Loved their music then, love it now. It's not really a contest. They each had their own unique sound. That's what made them great.
Hi there.. how are you doing? Happy new year with good health and prosperity
Great speech...induction...Mick. Looks good on you....
Great speech from gentleman Jagger😊
Love the honest speech of Mick, love The Beatles, love The Rolling Stones, love their struggle and their mutual admiration, but most of all I LOVE ROCK N' ROLL
Fabulously done, Mick Jagger!💋
Liam Gallagher was right when he said you can’t have one without the other, they’re like a left and right or black or white. Stop comparing and just enjoy them
I think this was a most heartfelt introduction and induction speech. Very well articulated and heartfelt thanks expressed. Music is subjective, taste is subjective but factual history is objective. Only one band changed the world and they were from Liverpool. Everyone else followed.
Love Mick! He’s great here, humble and funny.
Mick you are so cool
Great speech by Jagger...love his humility & sincerity.
Mick Jagger's humor and timing are fantastic and he can shift seamlessly
into a more serious tone.
It's comparing apples to oranges to compare the Beatles to the Stones.
like comparing the Who to Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath to Motorhead
all british bands all AWESOME.
I get your point but imo, it's not comparing apples to oranges. It's comparing apples to other really good apples.
why do u have to compare in a competitive way? why not just say: wow, both of them are unimaginably good, and if you try to have a glance behind the curtain: there are influences from the beatles at the stone´s songs. As far as I remember it was the beatles first and they influenced also the stones, if it had been the other way round, I am convinced the beatles would have been influenced by the stones as well, because both bands are kind of geniuses and those people tend to walk through life (sorry denglish) with open minds.... optionally
So it's good if it's POP Rythym and Blues. some seem to compare the other bands against the Beatles, call the Beatles a POP Band
The others are called Gritty , Harder, whatever.
Hey People !
ALL BRITISH BANDS are POP.
whatever genre you pick, R&B, Rock, , the Brita Took our American Rock Heroes Music and presented a homogenized version back, and all you can say is these bands are the best.
Let's not include the Root Bands, and musicians that Started these genres and are way more gritty,, no we want to compare the Best Band to the other copy cats and say they are grittier, Harder.
ALL BRITISH MUSIC IS POP.
Great job Mick. Congrats Beatles.
What a tribute by Mick!
So great to see the real affection and friendship between these immortals of Rock!💞
Oh yeah it's really great. Hello 👋Hw is the pandemic going over there? I'm delighted to meet you here. Where originally are you watching from? I'm Patrick Corey from NY USA
How could you not love this!!! My goodness, lets get back to where we once belonged!!
That was a good introduction. Some laughs, but at the end, real respect, and honest acknowledgment of the realtionship.
The fact that the two are being compared just is enough to show how good the two are
He kept this mimes, the expression in his eyes, eyebrows up and down, the way to tell what he feels ;only looking at his face. I think that makes him so attractive
I don't understand why you can't love both bands.
Lourdes Rodriguez IKR!!! I swear some Beatles fans can be absolute idiots!!! They literally try to cram they're opinion up your ass and make every other band look like nothing...
I agree!
You can.
No opinion necessary, just listen to the Stones cover Beatles songs right here on TH-cam. the covers are lazy, horrible sounding, and prove to the non fans that wanna cram the Stones are Gritier,, Dirtier argument down the Beatle fans throat, that the Beatles were tighter then any band , and wrote better tunes, used better notes, not G this G that . Beatles are just better.,reaching back 20 years to gritty old Blues and creating the British Pop version and calling it Gritty is absurd.
Like you said, no opinion necessary. Especially yours you fanboy.
That's a wonderful speech, extremely well delivered, looks impromtu but was very likely carefully considered.
Really nice, funny, clever speech.
I have to admit, Jagger surprised me how humble and genuine he was in his speech. It sheds a whole new light on who he is. a take on him that I never saw before. Both the Stones and the Beatles, though different, were great groups who gave me many hours of listening pleasure in my youth.
I am a long time Beatles fan l truly enjoyed Mick's induction of The Beatles into The R n R Hall of Fame. I could think of no one other than Bob Dylan to have done the honors.
The Beatles and The Stones did have that 'rivalry' yet there had to have been respect between the two groups.
Mick was there when The Beatles reigned supreme and imagine you are an unknown group at that stage and the Fab Four were in the crowd to here you perform. Imagine that.
By giving the Stones their first top ten hit really changed music history forever. The Stones and the Beatles inspired not only each other yet many other bands.
Mick's presentation was entertaining at first yet he showed humilty when acknowledging what The Beatles did for English Rock as well their impact in the States.
The Beatles were the vanguard and opened the door for other Bands to give us the great music of the 60's and beyond for which we should be forever grateful.
Well done Mick. Well done The Beatles. When an honest appraisal needed to be given which dispells the us (Beatles) v them (Stones) who better to say it than Mick himself.
Mark Hutchinson Surely Brian Wilson would spring to mind
Oh correct Max...well put...my respects
great brilliiant speech from Mick Jagger! Rock and Roll!!
I love the energy, creativity, and enthusiasm of the stones!! The sexuality and unbridled dry humor of Mick Jagger is so beyond crafty, witty and observant that I laugh out loud while listening to his remarks!!!
Mick's quite the gentleman! Great job!
Ahh... lovely. So cool to see the love of mates in this piece
Wonderful tribute from a worthy adversary
This is to me one of the best, if not the best, inducting speech ever. Stones & Beatles (in that order), the most influencing rock & roll bands in music history. From Britain to the world...
Classic gifted musicians beautiful
Oh yeah it's really great. Hello 👋how is the pandemic going over there? I'm delighted to meet you here. Where originally are you watching from? I'm Patrick Corey from NY USA
Jagger is very witty, and a surprisingly humble man when he's not performing
From LA. Right on DR.Ray. good night to all.
Best front man ever. Been a fan since the 60s.
I just LOVE this speech ❤️
It's really nice. Hello 👋how is the pandemic going over there? I'm delighted to meet you here. Where originally are you watching from? I'm Patrick Corey from NY USA
their "rivalry" was SO healthy. They were like friends who pushed each other for better. The results are the wonderful songs
The Beatles didn’t need The Rolling Stones to push them to write great stuff.
@@johnp515 Well I think that credit couldn't be given to anyone but outdoing The Beach Boys was a great catalyst for sure.
I prefer the Beatles to the Stones; playing different music and I think it preferable to one another is a matter of taste. Mick Jagger spoke with sincerity and is honored for this
