Rolling Stones New Song - Living in a Ghost Town

Post by Keith Jordan »

The Rolling Stones have released their first new single in eight years, Living In A Ghost Town.

The sparse blues track references the coronavirus crisis, with Sir Mick Jagger singing: "Life was so beautiful, now we all got locked down / Feel like a ghost, living in a ghost town."

In a statement, the band said the track was initially recorded a year ago in LA but was "finished in lockdown".

"We thought would resonate through the times we're living in," Sir Mick said.

The song is a bit meh in my opinion but they've produced worse. I like the idea of shooting all that footage around a deserted London but ugh, the fish-eye effects ruined the video for me.
