What is your sporting triumph?īasketball when I was six. I spoke to will.i.am recently and he revealed his skills as a sprinter. I'm bullshit." That's when I realised I needed to create that much energy when I play. I thought: "What the hell have I been doing? This is bullshit. But I remember watching an old Stones live show once and the energy was beyond belief. Would Mick Jagger have retired if he'd ever written a song that good? He told me: "I fucking hated that song." It had that effect. Yeah! Chris Martin said the same thing (6). When my wife heard it she ran into the room and said: "I've just heard the worst song ever written." By the second time she had upgraded it to "the best song ever written". It's a very delicate song, you're treading so many lines and so many tightropes that I truly believe it's an inch away on any side from being a disaster. I'm glad to hear you say these things because everything was very twiddled over (4) and we felt we had to go in there … (5) … sorry, yawning again, we felt we had to go in there and really pick it apart. There are so many intricacies on that record – every drum fill and vocalisation adds something. It's time we talked about Moves Like Jagger in a scary and forensic level of detail (3). But then there are times when they wake up and think: "This is all crap." That happens to me sometimes.ĭid that happen to you when you got told to get up and call me at 9am? I think a lot of people would argue that some people are lucky enough to live the … (2) … sorry, live the fairy tale. The disillusionment one experiences through being let down by love. I'm talking about fairy tales in general. In the song you also say old fairy tales are "full of shit" – which ones are you talking about? It indicates something much more than it used to mean, and that's kinda cool.Ĭould you extend it? Write a song about fax machines? Betamax videos? If you're using a payphone that illustrates the point that you're struggling somehow or you've lost your cell. I think in the age of the cellphone the payphone has transitioned from this thing we used to use on a very regular basis to this thing that is only associated with being used by someone under duress or in an emergency. Why do you think people relate to the lyrics of Payphone, given that nobody uses them any more? You could call China for $1 on a cellphone. How much does a payphone call cost these days? OK, I didn't use it but I was inside an actual old phone booth and it was a very nostalgic feeling. Now, when did you last use an actual payphone? You don't get to No1 by being lazy, that's for sure – and you're No1 over here with Payphone. According to Contactmusic, Jagger joked “You don’t earn a cent when someone does a song about having moves like Jagger.” Despite this, Jagger is probably doing just fine.Hello Adam! It's 9am where you are, is this the earliest a pop star has ever got out of bed? After all, certain people’s names are registered trademarks. Not many people have seen, especially a newer generation of people that don’t know so much about how incredible he was.”īecause Jagger is mentioned so prominently in the song, one might assume Maroon 5 had to pay him for the rights to his name. Levine told MTV News he was happy with this development, saying “We were lucky enough to get Mick’s endorsement, as far as him giving us access to a bunch of different footage that’s so cool. Jagger even helped Maroon 5 create the video for their song, which includes some old footage of Jagger interspersed with footage of Levine and Christina Aguilera.
