And how Ryan Dusick dodged a bullet by becoming a mental health therapist after injury from constant tours.

Met the original line-up (and got their autographs!) at a Kiss radio summer concert in 2004. I was newly a fan and went down the line telling each of the guys in the band how much we were all listening to the album in my college dorm. They all acknowledged me in some way, saying something appreciative, smiling, sharing energy--save for Adam Levine, who was wearing dark sunglasses even though we were in a fully sided tent--and simply signed my CD, and then took one finger, and silently and slowly slid the CD across the table at me, without a word or facial expression. I never bought any of their music since.

On top of that, this was the year Stephen Hillenberg, the creator of SpongeBob died, which led to a huge campaign to have "Sweet Victory" from the fan-favorite Band Geeks episode played at half-time, and the NFL responded by playing the opening bit of the song from the episode before cutting to Travis Scott. Lastly, Adam Levine performed shirtless for part of it, which led to people comparing it negatively to Janet Jackson's infamous Super Bowl wardrobe malfunction that effectively ended her mainstream career, while Levine was allowed to get away with it.

Adam could've easily had a great solo career like a decade ago, but either due to lack of confidence or wanting to keep helping his homies eating off them royalties (which would explain so many people joining the band during the sellout years), he decided to just keep making records as Maroon 5. Now though.... yeah, I don't think he has enough clout to pull that off unless he WILDLY switches things up and people actually like it.

Adam alone could not write a whole album by himself which is why he had to hire from outside to help. Reason why his music started to go downhill. Edit: Lack of confidence, for sure.

A Chilean here. I think another one of the reasons the band went downhill was because of their AWFUL concert at Festival de Viña, in Chile. They went from beloved to HATED in this country because they didn't respect the audience of the festival. The thing about Viña is that is works like The Super Bowl in USA, but in this case, IT'S TRANSMITED TO THE WHOLE CONTINENT OF SOUTH AMERICA.

Жыл бұрын

I actually do plan on it eventually, I was just thinking about it earlier today in fact lol. It’s a big mole hill to tackle though

On my old band's album, I didn't play a single instrument, I just programmed them on FL Studio. And what was I credited as? Multi-instrumentalist.

I think what's really frustrating and sad about this band is that they are genuinely "talented", they just keep positioning their inauthentic selves to the medium. M5 both explicitly stated that their kind of music was meant to chase trends, but the big difference is that they were on constant pressure, both personally and professionally, and that influenced their songs. The Fourth World's final track "Captain Splendid" was created during Jesse Carmichael's parents divorce, "Harder to Breathe" is a middle finger to their record label who wanted them to make more songs than they already needed to, and the entirety of "Songs About Jane" was Adam Levine venting out his frustrations, desires, and love for her ex-girlfriend, Jane Herman. Plus when SAG initially released, they never released any singles of any kind, just after a month. They were kind of hanging by a thread at that time (plus it was their second chance), and it would only take them a year-and-a-half to be finally recognized. But it also showed a core problem in their composing, and in the music industry in general. They were too successful that there was no stricter creative input or limitations to their future work. It's the same problem I have with Christopher Nolan and his most recent films. His early work were all dialogue-driven, adult thrillers (Memento/Insomnia/The Prestige) made with fierce creativity over what they had on the table. Until he made Tenet with a whopping $150 million budget and going all-out with no substance in-between, alienating the audience over what the fuck is going on. Pressure creates diamonds. You have to make it to break it. And that's no longer the case fore M5. They already have the connections, clout, money, etc, leaving their work on a listless pedestal, generic. And it sad because, they are really genuinely "talented", but they just had too much power with their own success that they no longer recognized what made them special in the first place. It's like being born poor and later becoming a billionaire leaving your parents and relatives in the dump. And we are those parents. They are now posing a mask to hide everything they feel embarrassed of, like the Kara's Flowers era. They can still make good music, they just need to go back to their roots, restrain themselves, and giving them a reality check. Don't be like Coldplay where they really sold-out for the mainstream. Be like Radiohead where they make and experiment music on their own terms and gaining a strong following over time, both critically and commercially. It's up to them whether they would like to or not. But who am I kidding, Adam is just shilling some money from lonely housewives amirite?

“Mom rock” is soooo accurate. My mom loved maroon 5 WAYY MORE then me. She took us to 2 shows. I was just happy to get to see neon trees and owl city open😅.

Oh Lord the downfall of Maroon 5 hurts so much. At least Overexposed sounded kind of like an album, though really I blame that on the fact I hadn't heard them since I went to the mall once in 2002.

Maroon 5 is such a weird case. Because I genuinely like their first 5 albums. All of them have some really good songs. And songs about jane and it wont be soon before long show the band can write iconic music if they want to. But they've just given up. They don't write their own music anymore, and don't even pretend to be a real band. The latest stuff is just generic and forgettable. The band doesn't have an identity. And those songs could be made by any producer. Oh well I'll always have their old stuff i guess.

Never trust a band that treats it's other members like nobodies. This "band" is so Adam-centric that at this point he should just go solo.

You forgot when they came to “festival the viña” in Chile and they arrived late to the venue, Adam was disrespectful to the staff there, interviewers and stuff, they “performed” worse than crap and left earlier and didn’t finish the show He is what we call “funao” here in Chile (cancelled) 😂 we hate him as a country

One of the guys I was friends with, worked in the Geek Squad department (it wasn't called geek squad back then) any way, one day he comes up to me and hands me a burned CD. On it was Maroon 5's "Songs about Jane" but not the version that we got in the stores...SOMEHOW this Man had FOUND the album online BEFORE it was sanatized to death by the record label and it IS the superior version of the album! Such a good album!

All of it just disinterests me to the point that I thought of it as "hate" when I was a child. Then they shifted into the sell out pop era and it was so much easier to dislike them since that wasn't a genre I enjoyed in general. I don't think their music is BAD, I don't think they are untalented artist, I don't think their shitty preformers. it's like I have this core character trait on my DnD sheet or something. "Hates Maroon 5." I also cannot stand Train or the Plain White T's. And something in my brain connects all three of them, like...a holy trinity of "ugh, skip it." Zero hate on people who like them! Like what you like! Be good people, all that!

They were never a great band, or even a *good* one, but I found them at least tolerable early on. Overexposed is when they became aggressively bad for me.

i love when youtube starts recommending old videos. this was great and now i know way more about maroon 5 than i ever wanted to :)))

somehow, this video did manage to become dated, because while maroon 5 are definitely dead, i don't even think they have radio presence (but then again i'm british, and don't know what the amarican stations are playing) i still hear people talk about their presence in pop music, their impact that still lingers on the charts. but it's not their presence, it's the producers they worked with who are still working with other artists. maroon 5 has been reduced, not to the members, not to a member, but to the producers they worked with. in the end, none of the members mattered, not even adam lavine himself.

13 years ago I heard of Maroon 5 and loved Moves like Jagger and... the other songs. Today, I learned Maroon 5 is not just a name for Adam Levine, but they are a legit band that have been around for a long time.

I genuinely only knew that Moves Like Jagger was by Maroon 5. All the other songs post that song I’ve definitely heard, but never cared enough to find out who sang them (I thought they were all soloist songs!)

I agree with you for the most part but I just don’t think they ever ‘sold out’ - they wanted to play what was popular and chase trends from the very beginning (which explains why they were a grunge band in 1994). It’s just that in the era they first came up in, bands playing live instruments were still cool. Their pop rock stuff was just as cookie cutter and trend chasing, but it was the era RIGHT BEFORE you could literally fix every note and every beat in audio software, so early Maroon 5 does have some humanity in it, but so did every band from that era, even the corny ones. Maroon 5 embraced whatever trend came along through their entire career. There was no ‘turning point’, there was just a point where you as a listener stopped messing with whatever the new trends in music are. And there’s no shame in that dude! It happens to all of us eventually.
