Who doesn't love the Maine? Ever since they started putting demos on their Myspace page this band has blown up exponentially. The get more and more popular practically hour by hour. Their songs are ridiculously catchy and the lyrics are universal. What's not to like?

Their two previous EPs (Stay Up, Get Down and The Way We Talk) were amazing. Can't Stop, Won't Stop is just a continuation, and it just keeps getting better. All the tracks are catchy enough to be singles. If you listen close, the songs and the way they fit together tell a story. There are lyrics about being in love but still feeling awful ("Everything I Ask For"), being in love and feeling great ("I Must Be Dreaming"), breaking up and feeling awful ("You Left Me"), breaking up and feeling great ("This is the End"), and everything in between. There are also a few songs that go beyond the relationship theme and just talk about being young and enjoying life. With songs like "Whoever She Is" and "We'll All Be" you can tell the Maine's real message is just about loving your friends, loving life, and having a good time. They never slow down, and every song has its own fast-paced rhythms and upbeat melodies.

The best songs on the album are by far "Everything I Ask For" and "I Must Be Dreaming", which is basically the title track. But every song is great--no filler, nothing you'll want to skip. The songs are all attention-grabbers and perfectly arranged. The songs are so good that by the end you'll still feel like it's just started, leaving you not knowing what hit you and pressing the repeat button over and over.

The Maine is going to be the next big band (if they aren't already) in the new pop/punk/electronic/emo/dance genre that is making itself up as it goes along. What a great album.

This album blew me away when I first heard it. Now I can't stop listening to it, and when I'm not listening to it, I have it stuck in my head. By far one of the best bands/albums in my music collection. I've been a fan since their EPs, and they've just been getting better. Here's a quick run down of songs that stuck/still stick out at me:
"Everything I Ask For"-Great way to open the album, get everyone dancing.

"Girls Do What They Want"-The lyrics are so fun and, again, great for dancing.

"I Must Be Dreaming"-Basically the title track: "Tell me that you love me/and it'll be alright/Are you thinking of me?/just come to me tonight/You know I need you just like you need me/Can't stop, won't stop, I must be dreaming".

"Count 'Em One, Two, Three"-A song off their EP The Way We Talk. My favorite off the EP. I'm so glad they put it on their album.

"You Left Me"-This has to be my favorite song, not only for the lyrics (which are amazing) but the music. This song sounds so different from all the other ones, different in a good way, which makes it that much more amazing.

I bought this album as a gift to my friend. It's not available in our country, so she's crazy about owning her favorite album by her favorite band.
But we both love this band, and I really enjoy how fun their lyrics are.

It's a very good band, and I'm probably going to buy another "Can't Stop, Won't Stop" soon, and this next one will be mine ;)

Oh, and I can't stop dancing while listening to 'Everything I Ask For', 'Girls Do What They Want', and 'I Must Be Dreaming'. This last one is amazing. I'm going crazy with it right now.

What great "new"group,enjoy their tunes immensely .Looking forward to their next project.Terrific Drums,Guitars AND GREAT MELODIES,WHAT MORE COULD YOU WANT?

Love almost every song on this album, I've practically burned out my iPod listening to it again and again!

I first heard The Maine on an online webseries called BETA Records TV- the performance they did on it really impressed me. A week later, I had this cd, and I just can't get enough of these boys! Thank you BETA!

There isn't a tune on this whole CD that isn't worth at least a listen! I can't say that about many CD's I own. Check it out... if you like the modern style of Rock, you'll love this CD!

i loved this cd and everything in it! the band is great! they have alot going for them and are very creative. just what we need now days. something fresh and so much fun!

This CD follows the lines of The Maine's first EP, but is slightly more mature, while still keeping the same up-beat funkiness that we love.
From the slower Into Your Arms, to the quicker Girl's Do What They Want or Everything I Ask For, every track is original and will be loved by any fan--old or new-- of The Maine.

I bought this album right before I went to go see them live when they were opening for metro station. After listening to it for the first time I was amazed and more excited to see them perform than the headlines. They are phenomenal and if you ever have the chance go and see them live.
