Songs About Jane (studio album) by Maroon 5

A very good album with four undeniable hits. There are some strong album tracks (3, 6, 7, 11), but also too many filler tracks (5, 9, 10, 12). The filler and lack of strong album tracks ultimately brings what could be a classic to a merely very good (although still a "hit") album. 9/10!

This band gets a lot of flak, unwarranted in my opinion. Another bandwagon where it just became cool to hate on them. This is a very good album. Great voice, and some very catchy pop tunes. The singles - This Love, She Will Be Loved, Harder to Breathe and Sunday Morning the highlights. But there are no weak tracks really.

"This love", "She will be loved" y "Sunday Morning" hacen que este álbum valga la pena, el resto de canciones es decente y mantienen la misma estructura pop-rock, lo cual puede ser un poco aburrido.

It is mostly based on 3-4 very good pop songs, but it still has to be their best album, if you compare it with what came after. Overall, 55/100.

I don't care much for Maroon 5, but that trio of Harder to Breathe, This Love and She Will Be Loved is pretty excellent.

Melhor momento do Maroon 5!

Fantastic pop album. This came at the very tail end of pop still being a mostly analogue format; comfortably throwback, with funk influences. really sticky hooks and riffs, some surprisingly tender lyrics and songwriting. This thing was absolutely the sh*t and it still holds up all these years later. This album launched the career of Adam Levine (oh how far the apple has fallen...) and the rest of the band, which have declined into utter pop culture cliches since then. But this record will forever remain something special.

This is actually very decent. Much better than the crap they've been putting out in the last 10 years. Here they atleast have some energy and a couple of really strong singles.

The Adam Levine vocal vehicle known as Maroon 5.

I saw these guys before they were big opening for Matchbox Twenty. Obviously Levine is a talent and it's refreshing to hear their sound before they became radio friendly hit makers.

But like all Maroon 5 albums, every song is an attempt at a radio single and some work and some don't.

Harder to Breathe is excellent and so is She Will Be Loved.

Sunday Morning is good too. The rest is blah.
