Maroon 5 Bows ‘Moves Like Jagger’ Remixes

CHART SPOTLIGHT. Make sure to check out Maroon 5 and Christina Aguilera’s hot new remixes of ‘Moves Like Jagger.’ Both Soul Seekerz and Michael Carrera have contributed with remixes of the track. WelcheMusic initially covered this collaboration last month, highlighting that the Swede Shellback was one of the producers. Another Swede – Jonas Åkerlund – has directed the new video! According to Digital Spy, the group was endorsed by Jagger himself who also gave them access to rare footage.

The track has so far reached No.8 in the US. While being a chart-topper in Denmark it is yet to chart here in Sweden. ‘Moves Like Jagger’ was added to Maroon 5’s Hands All Over set originally issued in September 2010.

Swede Brings Maroon 5 & Christina Aguilera to US Top 10

CHART SPOTLIGHT. Kudos to Shellback, the Karlshamn son who graced us with super hits like P!nk’s “So What,” Usher’s “DJ Got Us Fallin’ in Love” and Adam Lambert’s “Whataya Want from Me.” Since his debut with Britney Spears’ “If U Seek Amy” back in 2008, the songwriter/producer have successfully collaborated with geniuses such as Max Martin.

His latest achievement is Maroon 5’s “Moves Likes Jagger.” It’s the group’s first top ten hit sin 2007’s “Makes Me Wonder,” and has so far peaked at No.8. A duet with Christina Aguilera, the track has already become a WelcheMusic favourite! Hopefully, it will continue to climb and become one of the biggest ever for the band.
