At this point, we are all more or less accustomed to the unexpected company that Mick Jagger keeps (see: Joss Stone, Damian Marley, and Maroon 5, all in the last six months), but after the relative dud that was “T.H.E. (The Hardest Ever),” his collaboration with will.i.am and Jennifer Lopez, one assumed that he might quietly back away from this particular friendship. Mick’s absence at the AMAs — where will.i.am and Lopez performed “T.H.E.” — seemed to confirm this theory (or at least the theory that Mick Jagger still has cooler places to be), but now here he is dancing around the tie-dyed sky in the video. On the bright side, “T.H.E.” features a dozen sparkling Micks, all of them singing about Math. On the not-so-bright side, you have to sit through three minutes of will.i.am dodging exploding trucks and Fembot J.Lo trapped inside movie posters to watch him. But if Laser Mick Jagger sounds like something you need to see before you die, then by all means, don’t let us keep you.
