Key Points:
- The Rolling Stones announced their new LP "Foreign Tongues" and debuted the lead single "In the Stars," featuring a music video with a de-aged Mick Jagger and actress Odessa A’zion.
- The album includes contributions from late drummer Charlie Watts on three tracks, with Steve Jordan playing on the rest, having been recommended by Watts himself.
- Four of the fourteen songs pre-date the album sessions, including one featuring Paul McCartney and another with Robert Smith of The Cure, who provides backing vocals.
- Recorded in just four weeks at a small London studio, the band aimed to capture a "London vibe," contrasting with their previous album primarily recorded in the U.S.
- Despite the album release, there is no indication of an upcoming tour, marking a departure from their usual pattern since 1989, leaving fans uncertain about the band's live future.
