When Asked About The Song Levine Said "It Was One Of Those Songs That Was Definitely A Risk It's A Bold Statement. We've Never Really Released A Song Like That. But It's Exciting To Do Something Different Do Something New. I'm Just Happy Everyone Likes It." Some Media Outlets Noted That Levine Looked Outside His Own Band For Songwriting Assistance Which Levine Responded To Saying "What I've Learned From The Recent Few Months Is That It's OK To Collaborate With Other Songwriters ... I Was Always Kind Of Staunchly Opposed To It In The Past I Think Almost To A Fault. I Think I've Got A Lot To Offer As A Songwriter But Everybody Hits A Wall". He Went On To Praise Mick Jagger The Inspiration For The Song Saying "Jagger Has The Moves Like Jagger. That Being Said If There Was Ever Someone To Aspire To I Don't Think Anyone Could Claim To Have The Moves Like James Brown Or The Moves Like Michael Jackson Or The Moves Like Prince ... There's Something About The Way Jagger Moves That Is Uniquely His Own And Hard To Imitate But Also Accessible And Silly And Fun And Not Taking Itself Too Seriously". On Adding Christina Aguilera To The Song Levine Stated That "there's A Lot Of Bravado In This Song" And That Their Idea Was That "if They Could Share Vocals With A Female It Would Kind Of Curb The Cockiness A Little Bit In A Way That Was More Welcoming". Levine Went On To Say Praise Aguilera Stating That "Christina Is An Incredible Singer. There Aren't Many People Out There That Can Sing Like She Can. And That Was Definitely Like Well Let's Just - Let's Have Her Really Knock This Out. And She Did It In Two Seconds".
