  • Beggar's Banquet was '68, Sgt Pepper was '67

  • Nice upload. Elton John looking like a massive cock as usual in a straw hat and Bobby Dylan wearing shades indoors in the dark. Brilliant.

    I love Dylan but Larry David is spot on; The only people that wear shades indoors are the blind and assholes.

    The Beatles vs The Stones is pretty stupid but Beggars Banquet is probably my favourite Stones album and the Beatles album of the same year was Sgt Pepper. Apart from A Day In The Life, a totally terrible album. The only time the Stones were better.

  • It shouldn't matter, it's not a competition...if it is, then I'm the best band in the world.

  • Comment removed

  • The Beatles are the greatest band ever, period. BUT, the Rolling Stones are also great. I'd put The Rolling Stones' best songs up against any of The Beatles' best songs. Their best songs are on-par, equal in my opinion. The reason that the Beatles are better though is because they were more influential and made more great songs then the Stones did. /watch?v=1uz-S_Ow7jE

  • I have made a fortune from selling over priced dvds the sad deluded Rolling stones fans.It's so sad they all try to relive their youth following this junkie band.Should rename then the rolling old bones.

  • All Rolling stones fans are so jelous of the Beatles.The Rolling Stones are a laughing joke in the music industry.Widely seen as a bunch of stuck up(especially Jagger) prima donnas.It's equally funny that most fat baldhead old Stones fans are equally deluded.I recieved an email from a very sad guy.Here it is .''The Rolling Stones made Let It Bleed, Sticky Fingers and what most people now consider to be their best work, Exile on Main Street, without Brian Jones'' The guy is called reechreynolds.

  • THE BEATLES THE BIGGEST ROCK BAND FOR EVER AND EVER AND EVER IN THE WORLD!!!!! THE STONES WILL NEVER BE CLOSE OF THEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    THE BEATLESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS THE BEST OF THE WORLD!!!

  • @oninguem1

    Ι have something like 10.000 cds and LPs and stuff, of all kinds of music varying from classical to electronic and from jazz to progressive rock, but there is nothing i listen to more often than the MUSIC OF THE BEATLES as a group or as solo artists. But nevertheless I think that the STONES are mighty important too, even though I  don't listen to their albums just as often.

  • strange camera angle

  • I always thought Brian Jones started The Rolling Stones.The Rolling Stones wherenothing in music.Only Brian Jones made them famous.The Rolling Stones just mimiced the Blues bands.After Brian left the Rolling stones where irrelevant.There was no rivalry between The Beatles and the rolling stones.Mick must have been taking something at the time to puddle his brain.

  • @lottaluck The Stones mimicked the blues bands because Brian Jones didn't know how to write a song. It wasn't until Jagger and Richards started writing their own material that they became famous. That and The Rolling Stones made Let It Bleed, Sticky Fingers and what most people now consider to be their best work, Exile on Main Street, without Brian Jones. You might need to look up the word "irrelevant" in the dictionary, and perhaps do some research so as to not appear so ignorant.

  • @ReechReynolds Oh and you can also add the now seen as a classic album "Some Girls" and the underrated "Goats Head Soup" to the list of good albums without Brian Jones. Maybe even "Tattoo You" if you're so inclined.

  • @ReechReynolds you're both wrong. brian jones was instrumental to bringing that little extra to the stones' music, especially around 65-67. the sitar in "paint it black," the xylophone in "under my thumb," and clever arrangements in the group's music in general (especially on their severely underrated minimasterpiece Between the Buttons). And yes, the Stones made great music after Brian, when they went back to their roots. And no, the stones were great even when they were mimicking blues bands.

  • @ReechReynolds Dear old dear you are so sad and deluded.

  • @ReechReynolds You are so deluded.Most people consider Exile on Main Street their best work?Most people could'nt even name a single rolling stones song.Even the Great John Lennon told Mick jagger to end the rolling stones because he said they where playing the same old shit.You are so sad I will give you a virtual slap.Kshhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

  • @lottaluck Oh, John Lennon said something, Beatles fans unite to suck his dick! Jesus Christ, you basically say, "since more people like the Beatles they're better." Huh? It's all about the fucking music. So anyday of the week the Stones' blues beats the Beatles pop/psychedelic shit. Listen to these Stones' tunes and tell me they sound the same; Doncha Bother Me, Dandelion, Moonlight Mile, Cherry Oh Baby, Emotional Rescue, Hang Fire, Undercover of the Night. The Stones' have played every genre.

  • Happily The Stones are still here 50 years and still going, sadly The Beatels are not, but i was always a Stones fan and still am at 65, I bought the first Stones record Come On cost me 6 shillings and 7 pence, in Croydon. The club Mick was talking about was calling The Crawl Daddy club Richmond.

  • It's great to be young. And I'm not, any more. BUT, I consider myself privileged to have been young, living near Liverpool, when that revolution was taking place there and then. So many many good bands. Great sounds. No discos, just livebands. I used to say in '62 "Why don't they make records of this stuff, it's fantastic". A great time to be young - we thought it would last forever. Hey, y'know what? It will. (At least for me. ha!) Get down Matthew St. on Sat. night, even now. Mike.

  • Even though I'am much of a Rolling Stones fan, I must admit Mick Jagger is a very good speaker.

  • There's still not a band around since 1964 that can touch them,and never will be....the Beatles are in a class by themselves...no doubt

  • HEY MICK...WHAT HAPPENED TO BRIAN JONES? Waiting for death-bed confessions...?

  • @jcarringtonrobertson hahahaha so true

  • Beatles in black leather trench coats !

    Jagger and his boys.....what a time period !

  • What a selfless introduction by Mick. I just learned to respect Mick Jagger more than ever now.

  • Comment removed

  • i saw mick in 1961 

  • He looks like Chuck Norris ... I got the moves like Norris!!!

  • he was sick cause he knew he was'nt that good

  • acker bilk blows these long haired faggots out of the water

  • @changeofaddress1 yep, acker bilk does blow.

  • @changeofaddress1 YOU ARE THE QUINTESSENCE OF IGNORANCE.

  • tell what you think i'm ignorant of and i'll clear up your head for ya

  • Both great bands. Mick did them justice.

  • i want to moves like jagger..grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... acheche..

  • Even with a mullet of that magnitude he's still cool.

  • The Beatles are are more deveres band than the Stones! Both Great, but a big nod in the the Beatles favor!!

  • One ugly bloke but a legend.

  • i can't believe he knew Levittown and Syosset..lol!

  • I love you Mick, but please, a new hairstylist is in order, you used to be so coowull!

  • ...moves like jagger......

  • Mick Jagger is such a creepy looking guy ahha :/

  • Great speach by MICK! Nice hair too!

  • Great speech by Mick ! Both The Beatles and The Rolling Stones (or the "Stones" and "Beatles") are truly unique and remarkable bands.

  • Enough with all the hate every genre of music every artist every instrument is important to the foundation of great music weather it is the stones or the Beatles or rum DMC or today's pop we are all entitled to our own unique opinion

  • Nice speech

  • Why bother bashing a band? Especially if they're obviously one of the greatest of all time. Some people like the Beatles, some like the stones, some (including myself) like both. Both were great in their own way. They just had different styles. Beatles were a little more pop in the early years but more rock towards the end.they appealed to both fan bases which is why they were so popular.

  • @bemo5512 When was the first time you handled a freshwater Pike?

  • The beatles should of been one of the first in the rock and roll hall of fame...

  • @LastResort0011 1988 was the first year they were eligible.

  • Im Drummer Rock n Roll

  • jagger is the best ....god blesssssss u

  • The Beatles have fuck all to do with rock and roll. Love love me do... you know I love you! Shooby dooby do! So pleeeease! Yeah yeah yeah.

    Pop shite. Mick's far too charitable.

  • @loopstheloop You obviously are discounting most of their work.

  • @tideway Not at all... it's pop-music! And it goes right down to the beat too. In non-English speaking countries it's called the music of 'yeah yeah yeah'. She loves me yeah yeah yeah. So banal. They were all about 'I want to hold your hand (yeah yeah yeah)' while the Stones were 'Let's spend the night together' and the Who were smashing it up. Sure, they've an amazing ear for melody in pop songs that stick in your head, but so does Mick Hucknell and Rick Astley. It's not rock.

  • @loopstheloop Obviously you haven't listened to much Beatles..and you have no understanding of their rock n roll roots.

  • @runtsworth Bollox... just because they played some dodgy twelve-bar, as all musical illiterates did, does not mean they had roots in rock. Skiffle if anything... However, they were 100% pop.

  • @loopstheloop If you listen the beatles´s ABBEY ROAD you might find a lot of rock, and the basis for a lot of rock styles... you cant´say BECAUSE, I WANT YOU, THE END or COME TOGETHER are pop songs... you just cant´.. or with all due respect, you don´t know about music genres...

  • Comment removed

  • @loopstheloop no, just no. You're as wrong as anyone I've seen for about a decade.

    Are the Beatles a rock band is debatable? Are they the greatest band of all time, is not.

  • Comment removed

  • I'm cry-laughing and trying to imagine the Beatles in "beautiful" leather trenchcoats... Hahahaha!

  • 1988 was the first year inductions were made.

  • @nclyle 1988 was the third year of inductions, but the first year where the Beatles were eligible.

  • Am i dreaming this...1988 and the Beatles are being inducted into the rock n roll hall of fame?? Like anybody else deserved to be in there before them?!?!!!!

  • @markmywords312 Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Sam Cooke, Fats Domino.

  • @markmywords312 its because any artist have to wait 25 years since its first album came out to be inducted, the beatles first album was realesed in 1963 so... but yet I agree they should have been inducted first

  • @markmywords312 This was the 1st Induction Ceremony for the R+R HF

  • @manbigus Bet you it took longer to finish that abbreviation while looking for that plus sign then to spell out the words. XD

  • @markmywords312 The beatles are more pop than rock

  • @MultiFlacker Sorry bro', a Rock band producing the greatest Rock music

  • @MultiFlacker I know what you mean but this is the rock n roll hall of fame. Chuck Berry and Bill Haley were original rock n roll. The phrase 'rock n roll' has been taken over by other strands of music these days (don't even get me started on what's happened to RnB!) but the true rock n roll was the 1950s/early 60s sound. Lots of Beatles music qualifies for that

  • @markmywords312 yes! I agree!! They should have been the first ones since the induction began ... honestly.

  • @markmywords312 You can only be inducted 25 years after your first release

  • @markmywords312 There was an issue of eligibility. Twenty-five years after they started.

  • @markmywords312 Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, Aretha Franklin, Elvis...

  • @markmywords312

    your first album had to be at least 25 years or older before you can be inducted in the hall of fame.... 63 to 88 you do the math - -'

  • @markmywords312 yeah, the originals

  • He looks exactly like Arnold Schwarzenegger.

  • a 10 wachiturros no les gusta esto

  • Bob Dylan at 3:19

  • @Kingsako32 Zimmerman

  • @Kingsako32 haha! He's hiding back there. lol

  • Beatles=Greatest Band of ALL time !!

  • The jester inducting the Kings.

  • THIS was when the Beatles' little bro was in his prime

  • John, Paul, George and ringo

  • did he said at 2:05 "John Paul Jones and Ringo"?

  • @CORRDiesel geooooahge

  • mick jagger probably did so much coke

  • LOL Mick. He has such class and a sense of humor. Great speech. I love how the two best bands ever were great friends with each other but still made fun of each other.

  • @Yellow4494 Jagger is NOT into "class"hes the ordinary guy who became famous

  • @COMMUNISTPHILOSOPHY Mick was born with a silver spoon up his nose & he knows how to look after his money. Saying that I have seen him 3 Xs, great band & appreciated by the Comrades.

  • @Yellow4494 Yes, nice sincere heartfelt and genuine tribute here by Mick, and not a bit boring

  • JOHNPAULGEORGEANDRINGO! These four headed monsters complete my life. :')

  • fucking class act. 

  • How about the worst band I ever saw headline a show --- that'd be easy for me. The Rolling Stones in Houston 1966 - sucked ASSSS. - their one saving grace --- longevity.

  • @guitartornado Yes, one show sums up fifty years of performing. You're a dipshit.

  • andrew oldham is my uncle

  • @scob62 HONEST TO GOD, WHAT?

  • 3:18 Bob Dylan, coolest cat in the room, chillin in the shadows.

  • The biggest revelation I got from this video is that Mick Jagger is a bloody adroit orator.

  • Greatly done by Mick :)

  • Mick is fucking hilarious!

  • the funny thing about the beatles and the stones was the way they were initially portrayed, the stones were middle class (in the english sense i.e posh) and from affluent places like cheltenham and london but yet they dressed down and acted if they were from the tough streets.

    the beatles were from the tough northern industrial city of liverpool but brian epstein put them in smart suits and tried to portray them as sophisticated.

    there`s a message in there somewhere

  • @poetsdontknowit The Rolling Stones were the bad boys. The Beatles were the "bring home to meet mom and pop" boys. The Rolling Stones never dressed down, don't quite understand what you mean by that. They would were suits and stuff like that in the early days, then would wear whatever the hell was in fashion.

  • @EvilAnticsLive comparing cheltenham to liverpool is like comparing martha`s vineyard to detroit.

    while mick jagger was studying at the L.S.E (a university that has produced 17 nobel prize winners and who`s alumini includes the likes of J.F.K and david rockefeller) john lennon was having drunken brawls in the streets of hamburg with sailors and gangsters.

    image is a big thing in r`n r, even back then, andy oldham `created` the stones image just as epstein created the beatles image

  • @poetsdontknowit Well I'm sorry that Jagger wished to go to a good college and Lennon wanted to be stupid?

  • @EvilAnticsLive when still students jagger, richards and jones moved into a flat in chelsea!! thats like getting a flat in beverly hills.

    oldham created the stones and their image after he worked with epstein and saw how he created a clean cut image for four working class scruffs from liverpool who drank too much and constantly got into scrapes, oldham did the reverse.

    the stones and their image was a carefully planned out stragedy by the p.r genius andy oldham.

    all about image, even then.

  • @poetsdontknowit Keith was a punk who kicked an audience member in the face who was spitting on Brian, who himself had several illegitimate children. The Beatles were never that hardcore, even in Hamburg.

  • @EvilAnticsLive i should add though mate that although their images might have been engineered (especially in their early days) there was nothing phoney about the music the beatles and stones created.

  • @EvilAnticsLive It's stupid for Lennon to protect himself?

  • @poetsdontknowit Lennon only beat up his wives, everyone knows that. Gutless tough guy. Keith kicked drunken Scottsman in the fucking face from the stage. That's balls.

  • @steveconn right we all 'KNOW' that... you fucking moron

  • @jpirard what are you even talking about, you stupid piece of shit?

  • @steveconn your comment "Lennon only beat up his wives, everyone knows that. Gutless tough guy. Keith kicked drunken Scottsman in the fucking face from the stage. That's balls."

  • @jpirard Sorry if I've read a book or ten about the groups. Maybe they'll make a coloring book about it that you can follow too.

  • @steveconn READING books by authors with various agendas does not make you knowledgeable. I have friends in the music business both here and in England and one worked with Lennon, Nilsson, ans Harrison, one here was a 24 Grammy winning guitarist who did tours and sessions for his entire career. They ever mentioned anything about Lennon beating his wives. About Jagger I admit I know next to nothing. I apologize for my first comment, as far ascalling you a derogatory name. that was uncalled for.

  • @jpirard They were probably being polite out of respect to their friend. But it is well documented on every front that Lennon had deep-rooted anger issues and took it out on Cynthia and even at times on Yoko. He even alludes to it in the lyrics he wrote to the bridge of "Getting Better": "I used to be cruel to my woman, I beat her and kept her away from the things that she loved/ man I was mean but I'm changing my scene..."

  • @steveconn I will admit that this fact escaped me. I found this so you are correct. 

  • @steveconn "This song was a true collaborative effort for Lennon and McCartney, with Lennon adding that legendary part about being bad to his woman. He later admitted to being a "hitter" when it came to women. He said "I was a hitter. I couldn't express myself, and I hit." I did no know this. or ( maybe did not want to know)

  • @jpirard Yup, Mr. Peace had his demons.

  • Of course there was rivalry between the Beatles and Stones and of course they were also friends. I like that Mick admitted he was "sick" when he heard about this scruffy longhair band from Liverpool that had a record contract. Mick is an egomaniac but at least he acknowledges it . . sort of. A very classy induction speech.

  • conan the barbarian on the mic

  • Comment removed

  • What an intro!

  • @1979cl1 Ringo Starr has not been inducted in the rock n roll hall of unemployement , hes been signing on the DOLE or TOO LONG Thomas the tank engine on his C.V.

  • Isn´t it awesome how Mick pays a tribute to the Fab Four in his own particular way? Well done!

  • Jagger: "George, you gotta get outta here (Schwarzenegger accent)!!!!" *bam dum ts*

  • a lot

  • It is very unfair that Ringo Starr has not been inducted!!!

  • Great clip. I think "I Wanna Be Your Man" is the only song the Stones, Beatles, and Dylan all recorded. And I'll take Dylan's version over the other two, (not meant as a diss, as I like both the Stones and Beatles, just sayin).

  • Mick made a nice speech and showed respect for The Beatles. But, the rivalry between the Stones and The Beatles didn´t exist, it was a creation of the press. That same sort of schemes were used later on the supposed duel Oasis x Blur in the 90s. As we all know, the fab four were competing the Beach Boys. George Martin dixit :)

  • @Gour80 There would have been rivalry there. There was rivalry between John & Paul and they were in the same band. The rivalry would have been more on the side of the stones and trying to outdo the beatles.

  • XD haha thats what he gets!

  • What a super cool guy!!

  • The contribution of the Beatles to the music in general, rock, specifically is still seen. They gave birth or place the foundations for many of the current styles and genres of rock music. Nothing can be more absurd than saying that The Beatles are still listened by a old-age, because i was born years after they disbanded, and nevertheless listen to them practically everyday.

  • THE BEATLEMANIA FRENZY IS NOW ONLY PREDOMINANTLY HELD BY A MUCH OLDER AGE GROUP-SPECIFICALLY PEOPLE OF THEIR GENERATION, WHEREAS THE YOUNG STILL CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THE ROLLING STONES AND STILL CRAZILY CLAMOUR FOR THEM.

  • @DeepSetEyesDance as long as our species continues to procreate, there will be an overwhelming abundance of new beatle fans.

    stones as well.

    unfortunately, there will also be a gross abundance of trolling mediocrities.

  • 2 much coke mick

  • @Prestonpiemincher Bullshit,,the Beatles music will be around forever after when I'm dead and they're the BEST!!

  • A 7-headed monster disliked this

  • @Bryan8329 *9-headed

  • @Flakazoolu It's growing power.

  • A very fine speech about four legends - performed by a legend!

  • Luckily Mick and Keith learned how to write songs because they wouldn't have lasted past three albums doing bluesy covers like they did on their first album.

  • @RichYan33 Well thank God the Stones first 5 American releases were mostly blues covers!

  • Great story from my era & of course Mick did eventually get that long leather coat!

  • Looks like Schwarzenegger

  • @DuhuKaralius Yeah, but even more like John Malkovich - 2:01

  • @Proglove85 you have a point there mate!

  • @DuhuKaralius Schwartzejagger

  • @Pr3lude9 you got a point there mate!

  • Who thinks that Jagger is a devil?

    I do.

  • @christian4ever4 "please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste..." he sure was talking about about himself in that song^^

  • @christian4ever4 He's a fish!!

  • Coked off his tits.

    Quality.

  • Mick looks high as a kite!

  • OH MY GOSH, HIS ACCENT.

    Okay, that's all I wanted to say. :3

  • I'LL ALWAYS BE THE STONES #1 AND THE BEATLES #1......LOVED THEM EQUALLY AND PLAYED THEIR RECORDS UNTIL THE CRACKLED.......THEN GOT 8 TRACK.....NOW I HAVE THEM ON CD.

  • I'LL ALWAYS BE THE STONES #1 AND THE BEATLES #1......LOVED THEM EQUALLY AND PLAYED THEIR RECORDS UNTIL THE CRACKLED.......THEN GOT 8 TRACK.

  • Mick is sexy! To this day!!!

  • Only after sacrificing years of lugging your gear around yourselves and dealing with vampire dealers are you allowed to speak affectionately of "those years." Yes, you make a name for yourself, but wage an up-hill battle in the process. If you can persevere, you get the recognition...there's more to Mick than posturizing
