Maroon 5 will "Make you Wonder"

Ever heard the songs "This Love", "She will be love", "I won't go home without you" and "If I Never See Your Face"? Just in case you're not even aware of it (I suggest you should start listening to the radio.. lol), those are the songs popularized by Maroon 5! It makes me wonder though what kind of band Maroon 5 is (I'm not talking about colors here)... Maroon 5 is an American Pop/Alternative Rock Band which was formed somewhere in LA. The band is composed of Adam Levine, James Valentine, Jesse Carmichael, Mickey Madden, and Matt Flynn. The band won several awards for its debut album "Songs About Jane" which was released in June 2002. The album was successful going 3x Platinum in many parts of the world! The album charted at NO.1 in Australia and UK.


Their second album "It Won't Be Soon Before Long" also enjoyed a worldwide success. Levine himself said that this album is "sexier and stronger" than their previous album. The album is inspired by artists like Shabba Ranks, Michael Jackson, Prince and Talking Heads thus, the members described the songs as having a very "retro feel". I guess I have to agree with that! Songs like "If I Never See Your Face Again" and "Makes Me Wonder" would really make you dance and groove with the music! :)


Even the critics agree that its a good album! Billboard and Allmusic rated the album 4.5 stars out of 5, commenting that the album "is so immaculate that it glistens". Before its release, the song "Makes Me Wonder" was the no.1 selling single on iTunes. It was also the no.1 selling album, with more than fifty thousand digital pre-sales. Upon it's release the album breaks the iTunes sales records for its week of release, selling over a hundred thousand albums. As of today, the album has sold more than 3 million copies worldwide.


So what do you think about Maroon 5? Do they still make you wonder why they had great success? If you still don't know then just check out their songs and enjoy... :)
