<P><a href="/music/artist/maroon_5/artist.jhtml">Maroon 5</a>'s Adam Levine has already made a compelling argument for why his band's new single, <a href="/news/articles/1667112/maroon-five-moves-like-jagger-summer-song.jhtml">"Moves Like Jagger,"</a> deserves to be your pick for the Summer Jam of 2011: Basically, unless you want to have the worst beach trip ever, you will add the song to your playlist. </p><div class="player-placeholder right" id="vid:673274" width="240" height="211"></div><p> But now, with the new "Jagger" video, Levine's making an equally compelling argument for why the Rolling Stones frontman deserves to be a part of your summer, too &#8212; mainly because he's pretty much the coolest guy ever. "We were lucky enough to get Mick's endorsement [for the video], as far as him giving us access to a bunch of different footage that's so cool," Levine explained. "Not many people have seen [it], especially a newer generation of people that don't know so much about how incredible he was." Maroon 5 teamed with director Jonas &#197;kerlund &#8212; who's helmed clips for everyone from Lady Gaga and Britney Spears to the Prodigy and Blink-182 &#8212; for the "Jagger" video, which allowed the band to focus its attention on replicating the icon's moves. "It's kind of a hodgepodge of many different ideas that we wanted to do, and Jonas &#197;kerlund is at the helm of this whole thing, and he's so talented and we love working with him, and this is going to be another great video, I think," Levine said. "We trust him so much that we can kind of take ourselves out of it a little more and just be like, 'He's Jonas, so he'll do his thing.' "</p>
