Thier CD "Songs about Jane" is without question one of the best (if not THE best) CD released this year. Their first single "Harder to breathe" was great but its really the rest of the CD that defines this band. They have a pretty unique sound that mixes straight up rock with elements of hip hop, R&B, jazz and funk. Thier sound is kind of like a throwback to a 70's band brought up to date with a fresh spin on it. In a stagnant music scene where everything is starting to sound alike and get boring, I think they're a great change of pace, anyone else into them?

my friend told me about them a year ago. they're ok .. but they're not really my kind of band. i like "through with you" and "shiver". "tangled" is a little too nsync-ish for my liking though .. but that's just me.

I was first intrigued by maroon 5 when i went to see eva at buzzfest. I was pretty impressed.
I bought the cd a few days later, and it is pretty good.
Not what i expected, but they are very original.

Ooooh.... Maroon 5 is great!! I bought their cd when it first came out, and "Harder to Breathe" had a lot of air play on the radio stations here (even the pop Top 40 stations...)
I like them because they have such a diverse mixture of sounds -- a band is talented when all of their songs sound different from each other.
I got one of my friends into them. At first she said "They kind of sound like what a boy band would sound like if they knew how to play instruments." The only thing boy bandish about them, I think, is the lead singer's voice (and he is oh so hot...sigh -- damn the boy band type). The lyrics aren't the shallow variety that you get from the manufactured groups.
And I'm really excited because Maroon 5 will be here on Thursday with Eveclear -- $3 tickets, too! Rock!!

I got Songs About Jane today. It's so catchy it makes me want to puke. I'm afraid it might be too catchy, the kind of album I'll play the shit out of within the first few weeks, so I can't listen to it anymore.
Great album though. Five seconds into "Harder to Breathe" I was already bopping my head along in the car. I really like Adam's voice a lot, and the record has a lot of funk and soul to it.

Well that whole song is about sex.
They edited two parts of the song. One is "I tried my best to feed her appetite. Keep her coming every night." (They edited out "coming"). The other is "My pressure on your hips. Sinking my fingertips." (They edited out "sinking"). <---I think both of those parts should be edited out. They are very sexual indeed. Especially the first one.
RastaChristian
05-05-2004, 06:39 PM
Yeah... but it's just innuendo. There's worse things on the Discovery Health channel that isn't edited. It's just strange. If they should censor the video, then the radio should censor it as well. But they don't. And there's no PA label on the album, so... that's my point.

Unlike beau, I can see why they edited some words out of the song but I don't understand why they edited the video. It's not like it showed anything. Now it looks ghetto. Also, in Blink 182's "Miss You" video, they edited out two girls kissing. Why!?!

My fave songs are "through with you", "Tangeled", "The Sun", "Sunday Morning" and "Shiver" lol, that's almost the whole cd. I just love it all, not to mention Adam is hot. I heard that the girl in the video for "This Love" is the infamous Jane. If this has already been daid, I'm sorry for repeating it, I didn't feel like going through the whole thread.

Maroon 5 has two big stories recently according to MTV News.
First, they will be working on a remix for their #1 song This Love and it features Chi-town rapper/producer Kanye West (IMHO, he's released the best album of the year that I've listened to so far this year in any genre)
They will also be doing a song for the Spiderman 2 soundtrack.

Doctors have ordered Maroon 5 drummer Ryan Dusick to sit out the band's current tour, or face permanent damage to his shoulder.
Dusick needs to undergo some physical rehabilitation while he rests his shoulder, which he injured from two years of constant touring.
Matt Flynn, who has played drums for the B-52'S and Gavin DeGraw, will fill in.
Also:
The add date for She Will Be Loved was pushed back 3 weeks to June 22nd. I guess that that was done so that This Love could fulfill its course on the Pop Chart (It's #5 now after the last Mediabase update).

Read that article. Better yet, watch the Kara's Flowers video and you'll be ROFL.
Basically, they hated that era of their careers which is why they have changed their sound into what it is now.

hehe, actually i don't especially like Adam's voice...but i don't turn off the radio when they come on either. It's not my type of music, but i'd sure as hell rather have people obsessing over them than some of these other crappy pop groups that can't even read music. At least they know the definition of a song, and know how to play them too. One thing though: I can't stand "This Love". It drives me insane. "She Will be loved" is pretty.

Thats one of my fav songs by maroon 5. especially like the guitar solo.. but i like that in most songs.
However, i think 'She will be loved' is on MTV like all the damn time. Its hard not to like something thats been shoved down ya cake hole. Think its abit overplayed personally.
Bet that lead singer loved doing that video as he got to grapple with 2 hot chicks.

I really like Maroon 5. Today, I was watching MTV and Cribs came on and showed there house. It was nice. Adam is a cutie ! My favorite song is probably "She Will Be loved".

Maroon 5 is very cool, the song "This love" is my favourite.

Bet that lead singer loved doing that video as he got to grapple with 2 hot chicks.Yeah, and one of those chicks is John Travolta's wife (Kelly Preston)! Not a bad gig at all (unless John is the jealous type!)

One of the CD's at my radio station is Kara's Flowers' Fourth World. I've got to listen to it sometime. I've only heard the first song off of the album (which happened to be the only single off of that album) "Soap Disco"
They are soooo different.
It's like Maroon 5 is <-----here and Kara's Flowers is
all the way over ----------------------------------------------------->here.

I'm still what people call a "singles fan" lol, meaning that I've only really heard their singles but I like them a lot.
I think that they're awesome :) 'She Will Be Loved' is such a great song.
yeah, it's overplayed...but I'd rather that the good songs be overplayed anyway :D It's like when My Immortal was being played 24/7...I'd be in my element when I would happen to catch three different stations playing it in succession lol.
I'm definitely going to check out their tour dates :) W00t for Maroon 5!

Did anybody see Maroon 5 sing on VH1? They sounded terrible. They did "She Will Be Loved" which i'd understand if Adam was out of tune, because those are some high notes, but even the band played terribly. Thank god for prerecorded radio tunes.

was she the one with the red hair? personally, i liked the other girl better...
but, yeah. i like Maroon 5 a lot. "Harder to Breathe" and "This Love" are awesome, but i really like "She Will Be Loved". that's one of those songs that you love and sing along with immediately. it's a hard song to sing, but i use it to warm up sometimes.

I heard them do a live acoustic performance of "She Will Be Loved" and let's just say that I wasn't too impressed...
Also, I was in the car with my cousin and he was playing their CD and I wasn't impressed with the songs on their CD either.
To me, their kinda like J.Lo... She sounds good on her CD but she sucks live.

i have this weird thing with maroon 5
everytime when a song comes out by them i'm like "okay, i think i like this"
but then after hearing it for 5 times, i just can't stand it anymore
it's so annoying
and it's like it's everywhere, on the radio, on tv...
like every radio station suddenly doesn't have any other songs then maroon 5 songs
but they're okay live, i heard them on the radio once

But I still like them

Harder to Breathe and This Love were actually great, and I'm not normally into some obvious band selected for their female fan and pop music appeal. She Will Be Loved isn't as good as the other two, but it's okay... I like hearing This Love in clubs, it really livens me up. So yeah, they're pretty upbeat, kinda groovy.

here i am, posting late again...even though i posted here before. but, yeah.
is there like, and interview or anything that Adam or someone says what the point of the She Will Be Loved vid was? i have it, and i know it's obvious what the main idea is about, but i mean like, who Kelly Preston was supposed to be, exactly. stuff like that.

never mind my question earlier. i found it. but this is just how i figure it after reading things i found on the internet:
basically, it's supposed to be that this guy has fallen head-over-heels in love with his girlfriend's mom. the line "beauty queen of only eighteen" is probably referring to how she is/was this beautiful girl who was forced into marrying that assface of a husband at an early age with him being a lot older than she is/was. the guy that Adam portrays watches and sees how he abuses and neglects her, but he sees how beautiful she really is. he still cares about his girlfriend, but he's just captivated by her mom in such a different way. in the end of the video, she runs off because she's fallen in love with him too and just can't take seeing him with anyone else. her own daughter, no less. he goes after her because he also decides that he can't pretend anymore, but will definitely have some explaining to do when the his girlfriend/her daughter comes out after them and sees them nearly kissing. i didn't understand how that happened twice, though. i guess she caught them the first time, and just decided to ignore it...?
oh, yeah. and the younger girl is actually Adam's girlfriend.

Is she a model? she looks like one with that skinny frame of hers. Wonder how she felt with him copping a feel of some other woman?

yeah, she is. but the good thing about her is that she still has some curves, and she's not just all skin and bone. and the older woman is John Travolta's wife, Kelly Preston. hope he doesn't get too jealous. hope Adam's girlfriend doesn't, either ;).

Kelly Preston was hot. Was she not the one in the movieTwins? i often wonder why women get the whole huge hair style thing when they get older. Surely having it straight makes you look younger.

I don't think for awhile just because I'm pretty sure they just finished their tour, which ended in Spain. Though they most likely will do another, though no dates have been released as of yet. :)

In my opinion, I don't like Maroon 5. I used to love them when 'This Love' came out, omg, I can't begin to tell you how obsessed with that song I was! But after two weeks or so, I was so sick of it, it was so annoying! It was being played everywhere, on Vh1 and MTV video spins, every freakin hits radio station, I couldn't escape it! If they weren't so freakin overplayed, I would so like them more! I kinda like 'She Will Be Loved', but it's just so repeatative...I don't think this is a good band to get too attached to (please don't stone me for saying that! :( ), because I just find that their songs are very repeatative and annoying after awhile...But I guess some people like them, and some people like me, don't.

Yeah, they will sell out pretty quickly. I'm hoping I get a good chance to get some tickets to their up-coming tour. Whever that is, though.
and were then going for hundreds of pounds on ebay
I've found some pretty good, legit, ticket deals on E-Bay. One Evanescence one before. The person might not have been too good with math, being as they were Three Floor tickets for $193.00. That's a deal! If I had lived in that state, I would have defiatley bought them, no doubt!

That's weird, I've been doing that, too. Every 'new' song I've been hearing, I'm all 'Ew, I don't like this!". Then, the second time I hear it, it's stuck in my head and I love it. I'm confusing.. heh. =/

I absolutely ADORE Maroon 5. I saw them live a little while after Songs About Jane came out, before that many people had really heard of them, and they just blew me away. I went out and bought the CD the next day. They sound even better live then they do on the CD. I am so in love with Adam's voice. And I completely relate to all of their songs. I hope a new album isn't too far off in the future. My favorite songs of theirs are Shiver, Tangled, Sunday Morning, Through With You, and The Sweetest Goodbye (that one makes me cry sometimes.) I also really do like This Love and She Will Be Loved, but they got so overplayed that I got sick of them.

Dusting off a really dirty thread :) I just picked up their new album today "It won't be soon before long" I've never been a fan of theirs, and until their latest releases I couldn't name you a single M5 song but for some reason this album has some appeal to me. I love "Makes me wonder" and "Wake up call." I am more of a rock kinda guy so to have Maroon 5 appeal to me is odd but I guess our musical tastes are always changing. Anyone else like them or no?
Katya
08-30-2007, 04:35 PM
How is their new album? I adore Songs About Jane, but I've only heard Makes Me Wonder from their new album, and I'm not one to get an album based on one song.
KCMO
08-30-2007, 05:17 PM
Well, there are 12 songs on their new album and I dig 9 of them and there is another one that will grow on me so we'll make that 10. I am like you, I hate to spend money on a cd and then only like the one or two songs that have been released and the rest be crap but I think if you like Makes me wonder then you'll like most the rest of the cd.

Maroon 5 has gotta be one of my favorites to blast in the car; they're sound makes you wanna move, some make you wanna break stuff, and some are just so sexy! I love Adam's vibrato; it's one of the many things that sounds like he's really loving performing the song and that he's excited. The lyrics are catchy, but very clever and sensual. Songs About Jane was the best; they've new one sounds kinda too pop-ish for me, but still catchy.
