- I think today is the day I may have failed the "Be Nice" exercise where I am given a video/song to react to and I can only say nice things about it, constructive or encouraging. Today I was told to react to Maroon 5's Moves Like Jagger. I tried. I really did. If you've nothing nice to say, best not to say anything at all. Right? If I'm wrong, please tell me in the comments.

Cancelled tour in Germany 😕
id love it if you did a similar review of "j mascis - everybody lets me down".. since well, the video is awesome due to J being J..
We missed you in Mobile, AL - hope to see you in either New Orleans Biloxi Mobile or Pensacola next time. 🪨🤘
Congrats on the tour. Saw you in Dallas. Brilliant.
protip: next time use the word Shite to seem more fancy, i think its a must, it would fit you :D
"And at no point does he display those moves"
🤣🤣🤣
That was fantastic
I think all his dancing scenes were wisely left on the cutting room floor. No, Adam, just no.
The point was that he doesn't move like Jagger and the guest dancers do. I always thought he (Jagger) looked pissed or drugged up possibly both, like when Jimmy Page staggers across the stage. I had a friend who danced like Jagger and everybody laughed at him not with him, it looked ridiculous. By the way I can't dance but if I had to look like that I'm glad I can't.
@@DavidHarvey-po9le
But he sings "I".... I got the moves like jagger.
So why didn't Adam sing YOU'VE got the moves like Jagger, then, if it's supposedly about the dancers having the "Moves like Jagger"? According to your theory
Adam Levine always seems like he's playing a character in a romantic comedy who is expressly introduced to be a douche-y rival of the male protagonist.
Thats a perfect observation
This. 💯
You must mean that 2013 movie Begin Again…Keira Knightly, Mark Ruffalo and, yeah douchy Adam Levine.. 😂😂😂
@@Guitarplayer724 Holy crap, I wonder if the existence of that was floating around in the back of my head or if he's just such the platonic ideal of a douche boyfriend that I arrived at the same idea independently. Probably the former, but I like to believe the latter.
yes, that´s it my stomac feels strange the same way either seeing a romantic comedy(horror movie) or listening to this... band?regards
Maroon 5 is the exact sort of band you would expect out of a random band generator.
well put! along with Harry Styles
@skylinerunner1695 Styles at least is still young and takes risas (music for a sushi restaurant anyone, would Maroon 5 dare to fail like that?! No!) But he might very well end up the same
They started out pretty decently - 'Songs for Jane' is pretty widely considered a classic pop album. They just wanted to stay on top and relevant and sold out their sound to do so. Now it's just the Adam Levine auto-tune show.
@@SeattleScottycompletely agree
Absolutely LOVED watching the internal struggle to not lose your soul during this - the little sighs/borderline whimper of 'do we have to g on?' Thanks so much for the real laughs. Brightened my evening no end xx
He’s giving the same vibes I give sometimes with my 6th grade class- the struggle is real 😂😂😂
It’s all sh*t when it comes to Maroon 5 and Levine. An old friend of mine summed it up perfectly when he said, “I had a nightmare that I was in Hell and Maroon 5 was the house band”.
Maroon 5 is music for people who don't like music.
Meg Griffin from Family Guy is a fan of Maroon 5
Songs about Jane was quite good honestly. It did just go downhill from that tho
My wife digs this band. Imagine the hell I'm in when I'm a captive audience in her car
With Nickleback as the opener
And you willllll, be burrrrrned 🎵
When Adam Yauch passed, a co-worker made a point to say they hated the Beastie Boys. I was bummed out, until the same co-worker mentioned they were going outta town to see Maroon 5. I thought it was so stupid, I ended up being not bummed out anymore.
hope you gave it to them.
@@idontwantayoutubechannel8404 Revenge is best served as Maroon 5 tickets.
Oh I would have caused utter chaos to that person for disrespecting my Beastie boy
they hate what they will or could never be
Beastie Boys are the ultimate pleb filter, if someone says they hate them you can disregard that person's opinion tbh
I had a friend, he was nervous I asked him why he really wanted to buy his wife a gift , I asked him what was the rush , he said he accidentally forget their anniversary once , she wasn't upset she just did what any insane person would do she played Maroon 5 and Adam's song for a week , he told us it was like losing sanity and he knew what hell felt like.
What an amazing personality. I'm bingeing this channel bc every video is so insightful and fun
I love how Justin seems more and more defeated as the video goes on
I felt the look at 7:36 in my soul. Poor guy went through this for us.
yeah he just couldn't see it through, and rightly so!
Maroon 5 is like fast food for the simple minded. Those that have a Lego brick for a personality.

Moron 5 does that. Its horrible noise
M5 lead singer has a tattoo of an epiphone guitar headstock on his side. If he’d have saved up a bit more he could have gotten a Gibson tattoo instead.

Maybe he's like me and doesn't like Gibson. I own 2 Epiphones and would definitely purchase another.
I will never buy a Gibson.
@@briano.1503 Epiphone is literally just a lower quality, worse Gibson. You can't claim Gibson are bad when they have some phenomenal standards and then the custom shop and Murphy stuff is a bit overpriced, but it's the real deal after all...

OMG, I always found the rhyming so jarring in this song. Thank you so much for discussing this. Just discovered your channel; thoroughly enjoying the sharing of your valuable knowledge.
Justin is usually so generous with other artists he discusses on this channel but uncharacteristically heaps some shade on Maroon 5 here… and it’s glorious because Maroon 5 deserves the shade, all of it and then some.
Yeah such a relief to see him finally ditch the diplomacy.
and this is their best song. 😆
You've got to say fair enough in that case
I still thought he was still a bit too diplomatic for my liking. Levine is a good singer but everything about them screams look at me and give me your cash.
Justin is jealous sometimes
This is solid f’in gold. Justin, you are a treasure to humanity.
He’s never gonna stop shitting out solid gold.

The withering glances. The uncomfortable pauses. Genius Justin.
Great comedic timing. Had me too. The uneasiness of it all. The cheapness. I despise Maroon 5 they're the biggest sell outs ever.
Maroon 5 is the perfect example, of a artists that started decently and later sold their musically to all the industry's crap hypness.
No, it was always awful
@@FrozenSurf nah songs about Jane is a pretty good album
@@sydny909 The second album is decent as well. I give Adam one thing, at least he kept his friends in the band even though they haven't done anything in over a decade.
Nah, twas always a crap band. 0 vocal talent and horribly annoying!😑
@@Chelaxim or, they were a great band until Levine chose the pop star route. they have done plenty, they have played full time in maroon 5.
I'm a German Metalhead, that might explain why I always understood this song as "moonlight dagger".
A mysterious song about a person who became a weapon of a higher being. Whether good or bad, it lies in the dark, or rather in the eerie moonlight.
The rest of the lyrics actually fit the chorus quite well.
Ok, I'm a Dio fanhead too.
Change approved!
haha i like your misheard lyrics better than the actual ones.
Kreator is fucking awesome.
I always understood "He's got big boobs like Jabba", oddly enough a search took to a parody where the exact phrase is used.
I have no explanation for that.
Seems reasonable!
Thank you, Justin, for subjecting yourself to the obvious pain of watching this video for our entertainment and edification. You, sir, are a true giver.
I've only just recently discovered your channel, and you're one of the most charitable, open-minded artists I've found with a UA-cam page. The fact that you struggle so hard to find anything nice to say about this song speaks volumes.
Thanks for the giggles. Your sighs were the best part, I enjoyed you being troubled by the song on behalf of the rest of us music loving folk.
Not going to lie I always thought this song was TERRIBLE from the first time hearing it.
Glad I'm not alone.
And you did try. Bless you for that.
Same here
It's catchy as Fuck. Why are there so many bitter snobs here hating on it?
Frog Leap Studios did a better version
The fact that you made it as far as you did through that song is commendable, Nice whistling at the end too by the way! Cheers!
I would just like to say that your channel is a place of comfort for me. Peace, culture, warmth, something wonderful. Calms me down. Thank you.
You throw justifiable shade in the most beautiful way. I’m late to the show on discovering your channel, but it’s absolutely brilliant. Enjoyable. Thank you.
Moves Like Jagger can be used as a case study for the dumbing down of radio programming that started picking up steam in the 2010s. There was always fluff on radio before Maroon 5 became huge, but then it was considered common practice to BE another Maroon 5/Imagine Dragons track to get big for having the same sort of annoying hook and repetitive elements.
The bloody whistling drives me insane

this video is so full of knowledge ,I never though of wiring or singing or such a full approach in so few words and reactions ,great !
Masterpiece. It had me at "this is really difficult". Apologise, never.
The despair in Justin’s voice in this video is exactly how I feel about this song

@Jedimaster420 Most amusing.
Stumbled onto your videos yesterday and god,you have me in stitches. You wonderful manhunk
I love how you try to make sense of this. I felt the pain.
I laughed so fucking hard at this, favorite Justin Hawkins video ever! He said what millions of real musicians have been thinking for years. Well put sir.
I'm still gutted about what happened to Maroon 5. Songs About Jane was great. Groovy and cool. The first album I bought with my own money, I still love most of the tunes off it. Then suddenly it was the Adam Levine cringe pop show, not a band. True definition of selling out. Urgh it makes me shudder.
Very similar to what I said. I really thought after hearing Jane & the follow up that they were going to take up that roll of the police in the 80s or the Beatles....a pop band that actually writes and records organically. Where the b~sides are as good or even better than the singles. Alas, that was not to be.....
@@isaacshaver6218 the first Lp is murder one ,the second Murder two never liked them or ever will but the first was also a very bad album and stupid videos ,he sings like CHER, but when i was a kid i did bought a Elvis Lp my first bought with the money i gathered from my birthday, only 13 years old but after i bought a Beatles Lp and i still listen to it

I didn't know this existed before today. I am so glad I came across it. I love The Darkness, but had no idea you had a youtube channel like this one. This is pretty kickass.

I think the reason Christina Aguilera was on the song was because around the time the song came out, they were also promoting the US version of "the voice" (the TV show) and both Adam Levine and Christina Aguilera were on the show. So the song was really kind of like promotion for the show.
Probably unrelated, but she also performed on Shine a Light, The Rolling Stones album.
Oh dang that's made the song even lamer! (if at all possible)
Say what you want, but even as a Hard Rock/Metal singer, I can confidently say Christina Aguilera is an absolutely amazing singer. She's a powerhouse. Definitely the real deal.
This video is literally all I need in my life right now. The lyric/rhyming critique is everything.
It's one horrible thing that thing. I can't call it a song even.
Do lyrics need to rhyme? I’ve been writing lyrics for a while and most of them don’t even rhyme
This really tickled me over a lonely cold January night indoors - great work chief 😎
Your "Moves Like Bono" assessment is spot on... Thank you Justin for posting your valuable content!
You have my deepest sympathies Justin. To put yourself through that for our entertainment is most appreciated. I hope the therapy isn't too costly or time consuming. Haha!
Brilliant - I'm not a massive Darkness fan, although I rate you guys highly, and wasn't sure about these - what are they? UA-cam programmes? Clips, mini videos? - no matter, you know what I mean. Anyway, I am thoroughly enjoying them - articulate, witty and very engaging all round. Marvellous job Justin
This man is brilliant. The ability to refrain is impressive.

You're not wrong. This was excellent, thank you for making me laugh. I think you manage to provide a far higher standard of insult than any other UA-camr - bravo.

I'm impressed he managed to get 9 notes out of a one syllable word like 'moves'.
My youngest daughter was born in 2010. This song was her absolute favourite when she was a toddler/preschooler when doing the school run, probably because she could bop around in her car seat to it. I think that says it all. Thankfully she discovered The Beastie Boys not long after and prefers actual musicians now.

Nice one Justin and your vid title says it all. Everything about Maroon 5 is as essential as processed cheese that's gone off. I especially love it when the singer has the microphone next to his temple while he's supposed to be singing. It's either a magic audio device or he's given himself away as an auto tuned lip syncher and doesn't care that you know this. The whole video shows that any person involved with them immediately has what ever talent they have sucked out of their bones.
You were v gentlemanly in your remarks - a feat of character! Well done 👏
I know I said this before but you are frikkin hilarious! 😂😂😂
You are probably describing 90 percent of the chyt that’s being pushed on us!
You need to be writing absolute gold if you’re going to name check such rock royalty. I didn’t mind this song so much at the time, but mostly I’d just end up think, I wanna listen to The Stones now :P
I remember trying to listen to a Maroon 5 album about 15 years ago and it left me feeling completely bereft and empty… it was almost awe-inspiringly banal, insipid and uninteresting … like a non-album. It was perhaps the first non-album I had ever heard
Their first album was good
No Chris is right on this one Eric.
@@SandyYoung1 harder to breathe, kiwi, Sunday morning were enjoyable. I don't think I listened to the whole album. At least it had some decent guitar and arrangments
I feel like that about Coldplay too. But I’m a cold hearted bitch. And I love heavy music I guess. And free jazz.
Justin, you are brilliant I just came across your channel yesterday! I certainly appreciate your sense of humor 😂 !!!! You had a few things to say about Jared L. and the following he and his band mates have……. I agree completely about how he has become a snobby person now! Today your on about Maroon 5……bahahahahahaha! Excellent channel and just to let you know I adore your tone of voice very soothing and your Whitt is priceless! Thank you for making my afternoon so much better 😋
I love this channel, literally a laugh a minute with Justin 🤣
So, I worked backstage for Maroon 5 a few years back. and I remember standing backstage and having trouble identifying the song. This was because the main thing I heard was the guitar amp, pointed backwards at the far back of the stage. And it sounded nothing like the guitars heard in the studio version of this song. I strongly suspect the guitarist was playing mainly for himself, and that the audience heard nothing of it.
James valentine is a legit musician 👍
That's exactly why I think this era of Maroon 5 (the Jagger era) is a TOTAL sell out! James Valentine, and indeed Levine himself, are legit guitarists, especially Valentine, and yet he ends up playing this sh*t! Although the fact the he appears momentarily in this video wearing a plaid shirt playing a pointy 80s "Satriani" style guitar supposedly doing the twee "synthetic funk" groove, makes me think he was being very "Ironic" through this whole process 😂
@@petergraham9267 yeah, watch adam levine cover “purple rain”. he’s a really great guitarist he & the band just sold out after the first 3 albums
The fuck are you talking about?
Jimmy V is too good of a guitarist to be playing these generic Riffs
Justin, I’m a big fan! A band I was in years ago covered some Darkness songs. I’ve loathed the degeneration of rock n roll to this, whatever this is, “music”, for many years. A friend attests that M5 was an actual rock band at some point.
Bless you Justin. Your very British sardonic observations made me smile very widely. Oh, btw, you're completely right. I love your love of the need for decent rhymes and your obvious love of mankind's greatest creation; yes, the English language. Yes, it is a derivative language BUT WE PERFECTED IT! 😉
If anyone from the Southern United States says, "Bless your heart." You are being made fun of. Even if your grandma says it.
"if anything he dances a little bit more like" ... "maude jagger. mick jagger's great great auntie" ..hahaa.. classic. Im new to your channel and really appreciate your unconstrained honesty and sense of humor. many famous artists take themselves a bit too serious
Someone may have already said it….but I always wondered how they ever received Mick Jagger’s permission to use his name & likeliness in this song & video! Keep on rockin’, Justin! I love this channel and really enjoyed seeing the band live in the States! 😎
They might not actually need it legally, but their labels are both subgroups of Universal, and apparently Jagger was very flattered by it anyway
Mmmm, I’d suggest a viewing of the film “Freejack” for a reference as to exactly what Mr. Jagger may be willing to associate himself with.
He’s a public figure. He doesn’t own the rights to his name. You can name-check whoever you like as long as you’re not accusing them of something they didn’t do.

The most incredible thing about that debacle of a song is that Jagger allowed them to use his image in the video.
I thankfully had forgotten and hadn't heard about this terrible song for years till now, but was worth suffering thru it to hear Justin's take
Love watching your videos Justin. What a top bloke.
The pure agony can be seen on your face in here so clearly. This is also me mostly on any new songs you hear on a radio these days.
Radio ? They still have radio stations ? Not heard one in decades… If you are here in the U.K. then radio 1: music for the under 10’s and commercial radio: the same 8 songs all day long. Pointless.
That whistling outro nearly killed me , I have a headache from laughing so hard.
Here you are !!!!!!! Justin where are you ? Your voice is bloody awesome !!!
A valiant effort, indeed. I applaud you, good sir.
I won't be nice. Adam Levine hates Rock and roll. He's said it multiple times. A poser in tats.
Mick Jagger would kick his ass!
Has he said he hates rock n roll? That strikes me as very unlikely.
@@conorfurlong he's repeatedly said that rock is dead, that there are no rock bands. This is in the face of the existence of Foo fighters, muse, the darkness, many other bands. He might as well have said he hates it because he sure doesn't play it.
@@216trixie Ah that’s very different to saying “I hate rock n roll”. I love rock n roll but he’s right when he’s says it’s dead. And using Foo Fighters to claim rock is alive is quite funny. Hip Hop and pop are alive; rock is dead.
Foo Fighters and Muse are a 30 year old bands. The Darkness is 20 years old. If we’re claiming that rock is not dead based on bands that old we’re really fooling ourselves.
@@conorfurlong Wrong
I’m absolutely delighted with this. I don’t like the song so I haven’t given it a great deal of attention, One could say that when it plays in certain situations and places (never by my own choice) it merely resides in my Peripheral audiometry, however, the segmental breakdown and explanation given by Justin has allowed this song to almost become relevant. Thank you
Summarised very succinctly at 9:00 - hats off once again!
You are so wonderfully funny...thanks for the refreshingly intellectual giggles🙏🤣🙌
Well done Justin 🤣 you did so well but the truth will burst out ! Xx
I think this is the most I ever seen or heard of this song. I don’t know wether to applaud or slap you for this.
"if there's a singer in the world that doesnt want to sound bad, it's the man from maroon 5" ahhahahaha dude that's such a funny statement and i think like 10 percent of the audience would even appreciate it. your sense of humor is very advanced my dude. the sarcasm is nearly infinite. and that's what we like in a joke. it is funny on so many levels it is simply resonating like a chorus of bells in the noosphere. but you are simply a delight, even on a merely aesthetic level, it is a joy to watch your videos man.
i remember when you guys burst onto the scene i was like 21 years old. it was like a cultural splatterpaint full of beautiful images. great stuff man all around.
Help! I can't stop watching Justin's videos!
This sort of music I find completely soulless and bland, but worse than that is the HORRIBLE vocals. All autotune and that horrible aritificial glassiness. There's nothing else to it.
What you said....souless garbage
I agree, its soulless, manufactured rubbish, like Hawkins said the lyrics are just lazy, and nothing special.
@Bloom Tik Bloom
Have you?
Yes. Totally agree. It's a nothing song, and it sold Millions. I guess that's why i have to keep hearing it in shopping centres everywhere!!! Fucking hell 😠😠😠
The way Adam Levine seems like a pop star guy having a midlife crisis, trying to stay relevant by adding all these guest features, trap beats and nonsense lyrics about being girls naked in his bed all day, like he isn't in a boardroom writing it with six other co-writers saying "yeah we need a line about sex here so it trends."
Such an amazing band. Amazing how anyone likes them, that is. That was always a surprise to me.
I don't think anyone likes them. They are a packaged product meant to be ingested by the lowest common denominator. Maroon 5 is the same as empty calories. No nutritional value. Like Sugar Pops.

My mate who loves oasis likes them.
Justin "moves more like Maud Jagger", spot on! Had to stop the video I was laughing so hard, after the day today, needed a good laugh! Thank you! ✌️
Justin thank you. You're my new hero.
This might be my favourite video so far - I’d been wondering when Justin would finally be forced to watch a Maroon 5 video. I particularly enjoyed the progressive breakdown of Justin genuinely trying to find nice things to say, until the pure wank that this video is finally gets the better of him and he unravels. I’d recommend another video (where the song itself may even be worse than Moves Like Jagger) - “Sugar” - but I’m not sure if he could live through another Maroon 5 song and retain his sanity.
I ran monitors for a Maroon 5 show at our local college in the winter of 2001, right before Harder to Breathe hit big success. No one knew who they were. The lasting impression on me was that they covered a Billy Squire song, Everybody Wants You, for their encore--and they nailed it.

Found this channel today, fantastic stuff.
When Maroon5 is piped in through retail store sound systems I literally have to run out of the store. There is something very creepy and off-putting about the sound of Maroon5. I think it's the overused autotune. Wish I were able to endure it. One time I was getting a haircut and I got up and ran out with only half a haircut.
It truly is a horrendous sound. Also, I have a fairly good imagination, but I struggle to imagine their first few practices in the garage. Same with Coldplay. It is as if they were already fully formed in their awfulness.
Yessssss. Agreed! If i hear this shit song, from a shit so called band. I have to leave immediately.
OMG, you have no idea. I get nausea and I hardly ever go to a mall. It's when this crap is played at fast food restaurants which has me bewildered, perhaps it's to prohibit customers from sitting and eating, call it loitering inside an eatery I suppose.
🤣I did the same thing yesterday, walked in, heard the shite music and walked straight out
Absolutely, this song is nauseating… but there is one other song that is even worse. I believe it came out around the same time.. it’s ‘Happy’ from Pharrell Williams. It is quite possibly the creepiest song ever!! 🤮🤮
This song has 4 writers credited and it sounds like this. Between the two writers who weren't in the band they have multiple Grammys. Pop from the 70s and 80s was actually interesting, today all you need is the popular samples being over-used and you can replicate half of the songs on top-40 radio.
I don't think this was about subverting the audiences expectations for Levine to dance like Jagger, I think it was a really lame attempt at forcing a comparison between Maroon 5 and the Stones and these songs written like this don't deserve that comparison in the slightest. Remember when Britney and Madonna did that video where they seem like they're about to bang? I think this is Adam Levine's version of that with Jagger. And if you watch Sympathy for the Devil, Levine looks like he's doing a lame impression of Jagger on stage vibing to the bongo player.
Is one of those writers Stevie Wonder? That phrase they're whistling sounds a lot like part of the verse of "Sir Duke".
'Indian Outlaw' by Tim McGraw had SIX writers listed. It took six country music "songwriters" to come up with those generic, predictable, embarrassing lyrics like "...see me standing in my buffalo briefs, I got em standing in line..." Lol. That song gave me AIDS, Cancer, and polio.
Totally genius take on this..Justin, really cool mate.
