“Don’t get angry with me / I never caused you no pain,” 🎙 Mick Jagger sings, energetically, and expressively on 🎵 “Angry”, the lead single off 🎙 The Rolling Stones’ highly anticipated, 26th studio album, 💿 Hackney Diamonds (October 20, 2023). The 80-year old front man continues singing in the opening verse, “I won’t be angry with you / But I can’t see straight.” Perhaps those lyrics aren’t the second coming, but Jagger brings the heat as he sings them. Just hearing The Rolling Stones back, well past their prime, is a treat.

Beyond the verses, which possess tuneful melodies, the chorus is sweet too:
“Please just forget about me
Cancel out my name
Please never write to me
I love you just the same
I hear a melody ringing in my brain
Just keep the memories
Don’t have to be ashamed.”
Beyond fabulous vocals and respectable songwriting, there are plenty more selling points regarding “Angry,” which won’t make Stones fans angry in the least. The sound is vintage – old-school, blues rock. The drum groove (🥁 Steve Jordan) is strong, though of course, 🎙 Charlie Watts is greatly missed 🥲. The rhythmic guitar riffs shine (Jagger, 🎸 Keith Richards, and Ron Wood all play guitars. Later, the piano (🎹 Matt Clifford) further amplifies the bluesy vibes, with a fabulous guitar 🎸 solo being the icing on the cake. By the end, the intensity is through the roof, with the musicians and Mick giving their all. All told, Jagger, Richards, and 🎼 ✍ 🎛 watt (who also produces) deliver an enjoyable, well-rounded rock joint with 🎵 “Angry”.

The Rolling Stones are legendary but this video is terrible with the chick in leathers sticking out her tongue and cheesecake dancing.
