"Moves like Jagger" is a song by American band Maroon 5 featuring recording artist Christina Aguilera, released by A&M Octone Records on June 21, 2011, as the fourth and final single and the first re-released single from their third studio album Hands All Over (2010). The song was written by Adam Levine, Benjamin Levin, Ammar Malik, and Shellback and produced by Shellback and Benny Blanco. "Moves like Jagger" is a dance-pop and electropop song and is backed by synths and electronic drums. The lyrics refer to a male's ability to impress a female with his dance moves, which he compares to Mick Jagger, frontman of The Rolling Stones.

"Moves like Jagger" was well received by music critics, who praised the song's chorus. Praise also went to the vocals of Levine and Aguilera, with critics pointing out solid chemistry between the two. Likewise, the song was a commercial success, going on to top the charts in over 18 countries. In the United States, "Moves like Jagger" became the band's first top ten single since "Makes Me Wonder" (2007), as well as Aguilera's first top-ten single since "Keeps Gettin' Better" (2008). It is among the best-selling singles of all time. Aguilera also became the fourth female to score number-one singles in three different decades, behind Janet Jackson, Madonna and Britney Spears. She scored a number one hit in the 1990s, 2000s, and 2010s, being the second female artist to do so behind Britney Spears. Worldwide, it was the ninth-best-selling digital single of 2011 with sales of 7 million copies. As of 2014, the song ranks as one of the six best-selling digital singles of all time with sales of over 15 million copies.

The music video was directed by Jonas Åkerlund. The video features an old video footage of Jagger and his iconic dance moves. "Moves like Jagger" was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance at the 54th Grammy Awards but lost to "Body and Soul" by Tony Bennett and Amy Winehouse. The song was first performed in June 2011 on an episode of The Voice (where Levine and Aguilera both served as judges/coaches).
