This is the BEST song I've heard for a long time! It's amazingly catchy, once it gets into your head you will have a very hard job getting it out. It's solid rock with plently of funk and clever lyrics. I love it, and I will be sure to check out more of Maroon 5's work.

The 1st Maroon 5 single released state-side combines grit, rock, and pop, with an underlying theme that revenge is sweet ("Does it kill? Does it burn? Is it painful to learn that it's me that has all the control? Does it thrill? Does it sting when you feel what I bring, and you wish that you had me to hold?"). The music itself is fabulous, paired with the lead singer's sultry voice, it's never a miss! Other songs on the full album are great too, check it out!

The Maroon 5 Harder to Breath CD only contains three songs and yet it is priced like a normal CD. My recommendation is to skip this CD and buy one with more songs.

The more I hear from this band, the more I like them. Ragdoll is a real torch song, sad and jazzy, with terrific vocal twists and turns. Adam Levine's voice isn't so much lovely as soulful, and it shows great promise. Secret is probably the best track on Songs about Jane; ***very*** sexy, again with jazz overtones, complete with crazysexycool finger snaps throughout the whole song. Wow! They are the band of the moment and beyond. I can only hope they visit my city at some point in the not-too-distant future.
