I’m very saddened to hear of the passing of HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, alongside his extensive charitable work he was a very active patron of many of the sports organisations my father worked for and helped so many young sports men and women. He will be fondly remembered.
As the sun sets on 2020, hope 2021 brings you all health and happiness.
It’s so sad to hear of @chadwickboseman’s passing, he was a wonderful, funny, kind man and a very talented actor, he will be missed by so many.
I wanted to share this song that I wrote about eventually coming out of lockdown, with some much needed optimism – thank you to Dave Grohl @foofighters for jumping on drums, bass and guitar, it was a lot of fun working with you on this – hope you all enjoy Eazy Sleazy !
Hope you have a happy birthday @ronniewood! Love Mick
Happy birthday for tomorrow dear Charlie! Love Mick

Following the continuing eruptions of the volcano of La Soufrière on the Caribbean island of St. Vincent, thousands of people have been left
homeless and thousands more have little food or water. There is a huge humanitarian effort taking place to supply essentials to those evacuated. To find out more and to see how you can help please visit the link in bio.
So sad to hear of Toots Hibbert’s passing. When I first heard Pressure Drop that was a big moment – he had such a powerful voice and on stage he always gave the audience his total energy. A sad loss to the music world.
You can watch the video for Scarlet on the Stones YouTube now! Thanks to @paul.mescal for a great performance!
Tom Harper has directed this short film to celebrate the @royalalberthall’s 150th anniversary, which I was delighted to narrate with a poem by W.H Auden..
It’s so sad to hear of Steve Bing’s passing. He was such a kind and generous friend and supported so many good and just causes. I will miss him very much.
