Who is moves like jagger talking about

I spoke to will. What is your sporting triumph? Basketball when I was six. I was a very shy child. I hadn't come out of my shell, didn't have much confidence. Anyway, my dad was coach of the basketball team and he made a technical foul which meant we were about to lose and he was responsible for all these kids having their dreams crushed! So heroically I dribbled down the court, saw the countdown on the clock — 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 — hurled a hideous looking shot from the corner of the gym and it fell in.

Everyone lost their minds, I got lifted up on their shoulders. It was a fairy tale that wasn't full of shit. Without that shot — no Maroon 5? Life is a bizarre random series of events that greatly affects the outcome. I think that everybody has moments in their lives that defines who they are or sends them down a certain path. You recently asked a music magazine to "just make me look cool".

Do you care about being cool? It was kind of a joke. Said with a wink. But c'mon, I don't consider myself very cool. But who doesn't want to be cool?

I thought I was. I went to a very preppy, athletic, academic school. I was the rebellious long-haired rock'n'roll guy. But back then being in a band wasn't the coolest thing in the world. Not like now where every kid is in a band. One summer I got grounded for throwing a party on the roof of our apartment. As a punishment I had to work in my dad's warehouse all summer ticketing shoulder pads. My father owned a chain of clothing stores and it was back in the early 90s so shoulder pads were still around.

I had to ticket boxes of them for about eight weeks. No, it was awful. Throwing your first illegal party is far more stressful than you think. I would not recommend it. All you kids out there that want to break the rules — break them some other way.

Throwing a party? It's just not worth it. The lead singer of Maroon 5 on being No 1 with Payphone, why life isn't a fairy tale — and why kids shouldn't throw parties. Adam Levine: 'Who doesn't want to be cool? Oh no. No, that's a misconception. Ummm … in the video.

I'm not sure that counts. How much does a payphone call cost these days? Is it still 35c? Not sure they have the same ring. You got it. Were you cool at school? Did you throw good parties? The infectious dance hit, "Moves Like Jagger," solidified Maroon 5's mainstay in the pop-rock world. While multitalented frontman Adam Levine has graced both the small screen and The Voice 's infamous red chairs , the band's longtime passion for all things current and catchy has prevailed.

Levine joined The Voice as a coach in , and after 16 seasons and eight years onscreen, he stepped down to pursue other passions. One of the highlights of his time on the hit NBC reality competition? So, let's flash to and take a look at what really inspired the Billboard Hot hit.
