Mick Jagger, Metallica & More Remember Marianne Faithfull: ‘She Was a Wonderful Friend’


Marianne Faithfull's death has inspired loving tributes from her friends and peers, including Mick Jagger, Metallica, Slash and many more.

Tributes to the iconic singer-songwriter have been pouring in ever since her spokesperson revealed in a statement Thursday (Jan. 30) that she had “passed away peacefully” earlier that day while surrounded by family in London, with Mick Jagger, Metallica and more stars all penning messages remembering her life and legacy. The Kinks’ Dave Davies shared a link to “As Tears Go By” on X and wrote, “A bit sad all my friends are going … Bless her,” while The Charlatans’ singer Tim Burgess posted, “Farewell Marianne Faithfull … She was such a free spirit and true talent.” Outside of music, the British performer acted in a number of iconic films, perhaps most notably starring in Michael Winner’s 1967 dramedy I’ll Never Forget What’s’isname.
