Marianne Faithfull, the songstress who helped spur music's British invasion and was a muse to the Rolling Stones, died Thursday at 78.

Singer Marianne Faithfull, who famously dated Mick Jagger and rebooted her career after it was nearly derailed by drug addiction, has died.

The late Marianne Faithfull had a four year relationship with Mick Jagger. It's been announced this week that musician Marianne has died, aged 78. The news has prompted tributes and renewed interest into her life and career, which included a romance with Rolling Stones member Mick in the 1960s.

“I’ve done everything I want to do and gone everywhere I want to go,” Faithfull said in 2013, looking back on her monumental, roller-coaster ride of a life. Far more than mere muse or cautionary tale, she was both larger than life and always uniquely herself.

Tributes to Faithfull were lead by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones, who co-wrote her debut single “As Tears Go By”. On Instagram, Jagger posted a series of vintage photographs beginning with one of himself and Faithfull from 1967, when they were dating.
