What The Rolling Stones Frontman Really Thinks About Maroon 5's 'Moves Like Jagger'

By editorial board on October 2, 2022

Maroon 5's pop single, "Moves Like Jagger," was an instant hit. The song — which features Christina Aguilera — peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100

 Adam Levine once admitted that the band was hesitant to release the single."It was one of those songs that was definitely a risk; it's a bold statement," Levine told Billboard. "We've never really released a song like that. But it's exciting to do something different, do something new. I'm just happy everyone likes it.

Jagger has a cheeky response when asked for his opinion on the single, and his thoughts are pretty hilarious. "It's very catchy. It's funny. Only thing is, it puts pressure on me when I go out dancing," he told The Sun (via Digital Spy). "I wish I had written it. But wouldn't that be weird? It's not really like a Maroon 5 song, so they're probably as surprised by the success of it as I am."

The rockstar seems to be fond of the nod from Maroon 5, despite once joking that he didn't get paid for being named in the uber-popular song. "You don't earn a cent when someone does a song about having "Moves Like Jagger," he said during an appearance on "The Late Show with David Letterman." (Nickiswift)

 

Boston Dynamics taught its Spot robot to mimic dance moves of Mick Jagger in the 'Start Me Up' music video

The Rolling Stones’ Mick Jagger is famous for his hip-snaking sorcery on stage, but the lead singer may have been shown up by Boston Dynamic robot ‘Spot' in a new video.

 

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the British band's 'Tattoo You' album, Boston Dynamics' engineers taught Spot to dance and lip-sync like Jagger in the ‘Start Me Up’ music video.

The company also trained three other Spot robots to recreate the moves of fellow band members Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood and Charlie Watts.

During the video, the lead Spot moves its long neck to mimic the motions Jagger makes with his arms and the robot also opens its mouth to lip-sync along with the Rockstar.

The lead Spot robot does not miss a beat as it follows along with Jagger, singing and dancing the entire clip.

The three backup bots also hit every que of Jagger’s fellow band mates.

 

Boston Dynamics took the world by storms when it began operations in 2009, which led to its human-like Atlas in 2013 and then its Spot Classic in 2015.

The firm has since been working tirelessly to create life-like, powerful and strong robots designed for the commercial industry.

Boston Dynamics says there are Spots operating in a variety of different roles around the world, including on a factory-floor at Ford and helping with oil rig inspection for BP.

The robotics firm seems to enjoy teaching its robots new dance moves, as it taught a crew to shake, twist and do the mash potato in sequence to The Contours ‘Do You Love Me.

Although watching the Boston Dynamics’ robots bust a move is entertaining, the dances make the machines tougher, more flexible and stable.
