"Moves Like Jagger" - Maroon 5

When this came up for my review, I was so excited.  See I (as any music lover) have a major man-crush on Mick.  He is everything music should be: Timeless, invigorating, stylish, and unique.  Then I realized that I hate Maroon 5.  Bad name for a band, bad poppy sound.  They are not my cup of tea (or Bourbon depending on the occasion).




The beat is straight forward.  The lyrics are simple and less than evocative.  The musicianship is lack luster.  But I am not going to lie:  I wanted to dance!  I wanted to do my Rooster!  That said, I want you to understand where this is coming from.  I would love to hear this at a club, dancing with my wife, for the sole purpose of out-"Jaggering" everybody there.  I would make people cry with how badly I would school them.

Honestly, the song is not half bad, for Maroon 5.  I imagine that they wrote this song in 20 minutes in between rehearsals for the Voice.  So, bravo for an impromptu hit!
