That is so obviously fake Jagger. And "Guys who know their shit" know how the movie and TV business works in terms of licensing and usage.

Send that clip to the Stones organization and watch them eat up the profits from that show like they ate up The Verve. Tom Waits and Bette Midler each sued the makers of TV commercials for using sound-alike voices, and won. Subsequent filmmakers and TV producers had to abide by these legal precedents, just as recording artists had to observe the decisions in the rap record sampling cases.

There is strong mental bias toward believing it is not Jagger because the song is not one we've apparently heard.

It's not "obviously" fake Jagger, or as a boot licking worshipper of the Stones, I would know for a fact that it's fake, and I don't know that for a fact. Sure the fuck sounds like Jagger to me, although I admit the frequency discrimination and bandwidth of my hearing is below average.

I'm told by my very knowledgeable friend that recorded it from OnDemand for upload to youtube, that it sounds even "more" like Jagger when the audio quality is better. That person is convinced its Jagger, and like I said, very knowledgeable. She almost romped with Jagger once, circa 2003.

I'm sorry, but why would Jagger - who ate The Verve alive and never bothered to spit them out - allow that song to be used in that show for the shit price that that network could pay?

People who make higher budgeted shows and films can't afford to license better songs in the original artists' renditions - they accept the cheaper rate to license a cover version, not the $tar performance. It's even cheaper when the $upporting musicians are not those on the record$.

Send it to the Stones organization. Let the lawyers decide.

I understand and appreciate your points, but there are a lot of assumptions in there.

We're not talking Start Me Up here. If its Jagger, its so obscure, we don't even know it. Much less $$$ to license.

It doesn't have to be Stones property either, it could be some Jagger project, of which I'm sure he has dozens. Who knows what rights he retains - does he own Ruthless People? State of Shock? Right to license background vocals to You're So Vain?

The show/movie is made by October Films UK, and we have no idea how much money they have or don't have.

Also, "voice misappropriation" is a tort limited to California, I believe. But wherever it is, the existence of it as a cause of action, factors toward this not being a Jagger knock-off.

Yes, but see - No one would pay anything to license obscure Jagger. Filmmakers license songs for their appeal and their associations. Nobody needs obscure Jagger playing on a car radio in a soon-to-be-forgotten TV show, to be noticed only by Stones fanatics.

That's imitation Jagger (and imitation Stones also), thrown on a soundtrack by people whose only motivation is a paycheck. The smaller the licensing budget - the bigger and the more secure their paychecks are.

I looked the show up on IMDB, and nobody cares enough about it to even title and synopsize the episodes, much less provide Trivia info on the great, obscure Jagger song smuggled into one episode.

They only way to resolve this is to get some Negroes involved, see what they say. So, lets get that in motion, see if any of them are in the mood these days to play ball with whitey. Maybe meet back here in a few days.

It's all right!
(It's all right....)
It's all good!
(It's all good.....)
Busting moof like I never thought we could
(thought we could.....)

Dig it, Mick Jagger.

That ain't him. That guy just elongates the O sounds. Like this "Everybody go to guh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.........

Obama's got attitude problems. Don't be surprised to see god do to Obama what he did to Nebuchardnezzar. I'm serious. Obama may be chewing on the White House lawn like a modern day oxen, ass, or sow.

Here is what Nebardnezzar was reduced to by god. You can see just how wrathful Him is when Him come calling.........

Well, this legendary poster is off to London for a week of hardcore drinking. Yes! Yes. Good job on this. Yeah!

Me and London - we get along groovy. As Samuel Johnson said: "The noblest prospect a Scotsman ever sees, is the high road that leads to London."

I'll take pictures for yinz, and maybe bring back some treats. I may even post live from historical Stones sites. I have that technology now.

I'll chase down this song too. I know where Jagger hangs out.

I know where The Score is.

I'll look for it. I was thinking more like if you guys needed any Smarties, Bovril or Crunchie bars. Because drugs in England have always been poor quality to me. Despite its rep, its not a drug town. Other than alcohol, of course. Which happens to be my favorite drug, and why London and me are the greatest combo the overzealous Lord has ever manufactured.

Cheers! I fell asleep on the train to Pissington and Cockfosters and ended up in bloody Neasden then, didn't I?
