"Sir Mick Jagger's Chelsea property is, we learn, registered through a company in the British Virgin Islands. Furthermore, he has been non-resident for tax for the past 40 years. But this will come as no surprise to keen students of his songs.
Professor Christopher Ricks, an international authority on the Rolling Stones and Associate Professor of Satisfaction at Harvard University, says that because Jagger’s enunciation is so variable, for many years even his greatest fans have misunderstood what he has been on about.
‘The majority of Rolling Stones fans have been under the illusion that their songs are about sex, drugs and rock ’n’ roll,’ Professor Ricks said in a keynote speech to the London School of Economics last night. ‘But for the past 40 years or more, the songs of the Rolling Stones have been principally about tax avoidance.’
