The Rolling Stones have a new single out, and the search for "the rolling stones who you callin' crazy" is climbing because of it. Who You Callin' Crazy landed on October 20 with acclaimed jazz saxophonist Courtney Pine on board, and it is the latest preview of Foreign Tongues, Loose Lips, the deluxe edition of the band's studio album Foreign Tongues. The deluxe set arrives November 27 via Polydor and Universal Music, and the physical editions are on preorder now at the official Rolling Stones store.
Who plays on it
The credits read like a proper band record. Mick Jagger handles vocals and electric guitar, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood play electric guitar, and Steve Jordan is on drums. Andrew Watt plays bass and tambourine and produced the track, Matt Clifford covers piano, organ and Rhodes, and Courtney Pine brings the saxophone. Jagger and Richards wrote it. Serban Ghenea mixed it at MixStar Studios in Virginia Beach, and Randy Merrill mastered it at Sterling Sound.
A saxophone lead on a Stones single is a fun swerve, and Pine gets a real featured credit on the release, not a line buried in the session notes. Paul LaMalfa, Andrew Watt and Marco Sonzini engineered the track, with pre-production by Matt Clifford.
What Loose Lips adds
Foreign Tongues came out on July 10, 2026, and according to Universal Music it topped the charts in 14 countries, following the band's Grammy Award winning album Hackney Diamonds. Loose Lips brings together five recordings from the creative period around that album:
- Where There's A Will, with Steve Winwood on organ
- Who You Callin' Crazy, with Courtney Pine on saxophone
- Human Tide
- Bad Luck Hideaway
- She Still Comes Around
The formats
There are two physical versions on the official store, plus digital.
The 12-inch extended play (EP) plus compact disc (CD) edition is the one for record collectors. It puts the five Loose Lips recordings on heavyweight red vinyl in a single sleeve with a matt and spot-gloss finish and a die-cut center hole on the front cover. Side A has Where There's A Will and Who You Callin' Crazy, and Side B has Human Tide, Bad Luck Hideaway and She Still Comes Around. The original Foreign Tongues album comes with it on CD in a card wallet.
The deluxe 2CD edition puts the full 14-track Foreign Tongues album on the first disc, from Rough and Twisted through Beautiful Delilah, and the five Loose Lips recordings on the second. Singles Mr. Charm and In The Stars are both on that first disc.

Our call
The red vinyl is the move. Five extra songs on a die-cut sleeve, with the whole album on CD tucked inside, makes this the easy way to own the Loose Lips material as an object. Release day is Friday, November 27, so it is worth locking in now if you want it on the shelf for the holidays.
