Hmm. Let's see. 3 years ago the stones release a
1950s blues song with for some reason a pandemic
vid. 18 months ago they write and record what mick
calls a "plague" song "ghost town" for sudden release
now. But no worries, folks, all just a coincidence.
Nothing to see here. Move along.

There is a shortage of strait-jackets at the moment, but please call again.


Seriously though.. surely the tune (the new one,'LIVING IN... I mean)' is about all sorts of things... missing football and football chants, Ahmet, Anita, Bill, Monty Python's 'World HIde & Seek' sketch, Marianne, the stage, Boris, Brian, Jerry, new songs, , James Brown, 'Lina,  L'Wren, Maureen Lipman, Big Basil, Melanie, Keith, Dartford and endless things...

And the music is grand.

Notice how Kristen doesn't roll down the window all the way through? almost as if she's avoiding close contact

The "ride em" pandemic is worse than ours

Nearly everyone has died while sheltering in place

Thus for the "lucky" few who seem to have genetic immunity,
at this point its still a bit of a wonderland

Always fantasized about a classic Mustang? Take it. Picture yourself
behind the wheel of a super-charged police cruiser? Its yours.

Kristen has obviously run into the grungy dude in the cop car before.
Its not the virus she's worried about with him, its his desire for her.
Notice her grab the tire iron to defend herself if she needs to.
Fortunately his main interest is where she found a working
petrol pump.

Thus its not just the stones she's dancing to. Its the fact that she
was able to get a full tank. (but she's not as stupid as the person
who filled their vehicle with sub-standard containers of petrol
and so burned themselves to a crisp at the intersection)

With the zookeepers dead, the zebra is one of the escapees, come
down to the drainage canal to get a drink in parched LA.

For now, for kristen, its just the joy of the open road with a hot car and free food.

But if we were able to watch the rest of this movie, it was going to
quickly become, of course, in classic hollywood style, Kristen's struggle to survive.

Do we know if MJ even came up with the concept?

Interesting concept - I think the lyrics from Ride em on Down is about gambling - I got to stop dealing, bottom of the deck.

Driving a hot 65 Mustang in deserted LA with a zebra on the loose represents freedom! Rock and roll lives on even if society  is reduced to a few weird survivors.
