UK:Mick Jagger says copying music trends is a mistake

Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger says he's "very aware of what's going on around me" but thinks copying music trends is a "mistake" because they are so fleeting.

The award-winning group, widely regarded as one of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time, was co-founded by Jagger in 1962 alongside Keith Richards, Brian Jones, Bill Wyman and the late Charlie Watts.

The best-selling rock band have achieved eight UK number one singles and 14 UK number one albums in their six-decade career, and have been lauded for their longevity as they continue to produce new music.

The Rolling Stones new album Foreign Tongues is due to be released on July 10.

Appearing on BBC Radio 2's Tracks Of My Years alongside bandmate Ronnie Wood, Jagger spoke about keeping up with music trends as he reflected on the sustainability of The Rolling Stones.
