The worlds of Mick Jagger and Dave Grohl are colliding. Today the Rolling Stones singer and Foo Fighters frontman have got together to deliver a new song called "Eazy Sleazy."
Very much serving as some sort of post-pandemic jam, the track finds Jagger tackling the pandemic and lockdown head-on, giving us a mix of frustration, anxiety and straight-up exhaustion alongside a real sense of humour and quite the optimistic chorus — even if some places such as Canada are seeing their highest COVID-19 numbers ever right now.
As Jagger sings, "We escaped from the prison walls / Open the windows and open the doors / But it's easy easy / Everything's gonna get really freaky / Alright on the night / It's gonna be a garden of earthly delights."
"Eazy Sleazy" was co-written by Jagger and Grohl, with the former doing guitars and vocals and the latter drums, guitars and bass. Matt Clifford handled production.
"It's a song that I wrote about coming out of lockdown, with some much needed optimism," Jagger said in a statement. "Thanks to Dave Grohl for jumping on drums, bass and guitar, it was a lot of fun working with him. I hope you all enjoy 'Eazy Sleazy.'"
Grohl added: "It's hard to put into words what recording this song with Sir Mick means to me. It's beyond a dream come true. Just when I thought life couldn't get any crazier......and it's the song of the summer, without a doubt!!"
