Being a HUGE Maroon 5 fan, I knew that I had to listen to "Under Your Skin". I didn't think that I would like it at first, because there are no vocals. Bottom line - THIS ALBUM IS AMAZING! It is so beautiful with just strings!

"Harder To Breathe" is more of a rock song, so you wouldn't expect strings to take it on properly. The strings compliment the song perfectly, though! "This Love" sounds LOVELY, it seems to be a song just meant for the strings. Listening to "Shiver" is so interesting, because the strings take on the guitar JUST RIGHT. Moving on to "She Will Be Loved"...wow. That's all I have to say about it! Wow.

"Tangled" and "The Sun" both sound beautiful. Both of them also sound like songs made for the strings. "Must Get Out" is a song that you would definatly not picture with strings...but it is pulled off!

When you listen to "Sunday Morning", the beginning is rather slow and there are not many strings. You may feel a bit dissapointed, but near the end it kicks off and the song is wonderful! "Secret" is also another wonderful track. The strings at the beginning are so slow and deep...haunting, even.

Now, "Through With You" sounds INCREDIBLE. This is, yet again, a song MADE for strings. "Not Coming Home" is equally incredible, with the interesting harmonization. Finally, the last track, "Sweetest Goodbye", is a beautiful closesure to the album. It'll leave you wishing the album was longer!

If you are a Maroon 5 fan, or you just love songs w/ strings, I completely reccomend this album. It is PERFECT to listen to in the bath, driving, outside having a drink...it's also good background music. Plus, since there are no vocals, you can sing along to it yourself! I do it all the time!

So what are you waiting for? This is an extraordinary album, just waiting for you to buy it!

Love this rendition of maroon 5's debut album. Worth every penney. Every single track is musical genius. I would purchase another album like this.
