Rock legend Mick Jagger on Tuesday released a new single surprise with Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters, which introduces conspiracy theorists and anti-vaxxers.
In “Eazy Sleazy,” the Rolling Stones frontman tapes:
Shoot the vaccine
Bill Gates is in my bloodstream
It is mind control
The Earth is flat and cold
It never heats up
The Arctic has become a groundhog
The second arrival arrives late
There are foreigners in deep state
Jagger told Rolling Stone magazine that the verse was “a nuisance in conspiracy theories” and was enlightened in anti-vaxxers as “irrational.”
“Of course, it doesn’t make sense to talk about it with people. They don’t get it, “he said.” They had what they believe in and believe in. And no matter what you say, they will believe in it. And rational thinking doesn’t work. ”
Jagger noted that he himself was vaccinated.

On his YouTube page, Jagger said he expects the new song to offer “much-needed optimism” as he waits for an end to the blockages caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
He also wrote that Grohl plays guitar, drums and bass on the track:
