Lyrics:

I was so high, I did not recognize

The fire burning in her eyes

The chaos that controlled my mind

Whispered goodbye as she got on a plane

Never to return again but always in my heart, oh

This love has taken its toll on me

She said goodbye too many times before

And her heart is breakin' in front of me

And I have no choice

'Cause I won't say goodbye anymore

Whoa

Whoa

Whoa

I tried my best to feed her appetite

Keep her coming every night

So hard to keep her satisfied, oh

Kept playing love like it was just a game

Pretending to feel the same

Then turn around and leave again, but uh-oh

This love has taken its toll on me

She said goodbye too many times before

And her heart is breakin' in front of me

And I have no choice

'Cause I won't say goodbye anymore

Whoa

Whoa

Whoa

I'll fix these broken things, repair your broken wings

And make sure everything's all right (it's all right, it's all right)

My pressure on your hips, I'm sinking my fingertips

Every inch of you

Because I know that's what you want me to do

This love has taken its toll on me

She said goodbye too many times before

Her heart is breakin' in front of me

And I have no choice

'Cause I won't say goodbye anymore

This love has taken its toll on me

She said goodbye too many times before

And my heart is breakin' in front of me

And she said goodbye too many times before

Songwriter:

This love has taken its toll on me

She said goodbye too many times before

And her heart is breakin' in front of me

And I have no choice

'Cause I won't say goodbye anymore

SongFacts:

"This Love" is a song by the American pop rock band Maroon 5. The song was released on January 12, 2004, as the second single from their debut album Songs About Jane (2002).

The track is built around a piano-led strut and a repeating guitar sound. The lyrics are based on the band's lead vocalist Adam Levine's break-up with an ex-girlfriend. He revealed that the song was written in the "most emotionally trying time" in his life. He has also described the lyrics of this song as being extremely erotic. "This Love" was critically acclaimed by music critics, who noted the track's musicscape.

The song entered the top ten on most charts, topping several of Billboard magazine's component charts, including reaching the number one spot on the Hot Adult Top 40 Tracks chart. The music video met with controversy, regarding extended intimate scenes between Levine and his girlfriend. "This Love" helped Maroon 5 win the MTV Video Music Award for Best New Artist and was the third-most-played song of 2004. The live version of the song won Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals at the 2006 Grammy Awards. "This Love" is one of Maroon 5's most successful singles.

The song was the second single from Maroon 5's 2002 debut album, Songs About Jane. In an interview with MTV News in August 2002, Levine revealed that he wrote the song the day his girlfriend moved away after they broke up. In another interview, Levine revealed that the song was written in the "most emotionally trying time" in his life. He also added, "I was in a relationship that was ending, but I was really excited on the other end because the band was about to go make the record and I was ecstatic to go in the studio. She was literally leaving town within days of me writing the lyrics to 'This Love', so I was in prime emotional condition to write a song with that kind of conflict.

The song received critical acclaim. In the Rolling Stone review of the album, critic Christian Hoard wrote: "Adam Levine's urban-romantic swoonings work best when his band really gets up on the good foot, as on 'This Love', which uses piano and James Brown-like guitars to create a foundation on which Levine can obsess about beauty (including his own)." Jason Thompson of PopMatters noted that on the songs "This Love" and "Must Get Out", keyboardist Jesse Carmichael "manages to conjure up both the productions of Britney Spears and The New Radicals respectively". Sam Beresky of the Daily Lobo, who was less enthusiastic about the album, complimented the band on "This Love", in which he noted, "…'This Love', is a happier version of the first with a great backbeat reminiscent of Stevie Wonder's 'Superstition'. It might make a foot tap, a head nod or even a booty shake if played at a loud volume."

"Sunday Morning"

👍 (Closed Captioned)

Sunday Morning

Yeah

Sunday morning, rain is falling

Steal some covers, share some skin (I like that)

Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable

You twist to fit the mold that I am in

But things just get so crazy

Living life gets hard to do

And I would gladly hit the road, get up and go if I knew

That someday it would lead me back to you

That someday it would lead me back to you (oh, someday)

That may be all I need

In darkness, she is all I see (all I see)

Come and rest your bones with me

Driving slow on Sunday morning

And I never want to leave

Yeah, fingers trace your every outline, oh yeah, yeah

Yeah, paint a picture with my hand, oh, woah

And back and forth we sway like branches in a storm

Change the weather, still together when it ends

That may be all I need (all I need)

In darkness, she is all I see

Come and rest your bones with me

Driving slow on Sunday morning

And I never want to leave

Yeah

Oh yeah

But things just get so crazy living

Life gets hard to do (life gets hard)

Sunday morning rain is falling and I'm calling out to you

Singing, someday it'll bring me back to you

Yeah (someday oh, someday oh)

Find a way to bring myself back home to you

You may not know

That may be all I need

In darkness, she is all I see (you are all I see)

Come and rest your bones with me

Driving slow on Sunday morning, driving slow

Yeah, yeah

Ah, yeah, yeah

Ah, yeah, yeah

Ah, yeah, yeah

Ah, yeah, yeah

Ah, yeah, yeah

There's a flower in your hair

I'm a flower in your hair

Oh, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, oh

Woah, oh, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

(All I need)

(All I see)

Ce n’est pas seulement “l’épuisement”: pourquoi la santé mentale est enfin une priorité pour les artistes musicaux (Ryan Dusick, batteur-fondateur de Maroon 5)

Je vais l’admettre. J’avais l’habitude de penser que les stars de la pop qui annulaient des tournées “en raison de l’épuisement” n’étaient que des divas, ou pire encore, minimisaient un problème majeur de drogue ou d’alcool… jusqu’à ce que je souffre d’une dépression en tournée qui a effectivement mis fin à ma carrière de musicien et envoyé plongé dans une chute libre de dépression, d’anxiété et…

Maroon 5 memories

Producer Rob Cavallo's management team heard the record Allen and DeNicola produced, which eventually led Cavallo to offer them a deal with Reprise Records, re-recording the album. While they were playing a beach party in Malibu, independent producer Tommy Allen heard them play and offered to manage them and record a complete record with his partner, songwriter John DeNicola, who is known for his work on Dirty Dancing (1987) – including " (I've Had) The Time of My Life". The name was taken from a girl that went to their high school that the band had a "collective crush" on. While attending Brentwood School, Adam Levine and Jesse Carmichael joined up with Mickey Madden and Ryan Dusick to form Kara's Flowers, a rock band. The four original members of the band met while attending Brentwood School in Los Angeles. Three of the five members of the band started playing together at age 12. Levine was 15 years old, and Dusick was 16. History 1994–2001: Kara's Flowers and the formation of Maroon 5 Īdam Levine was introduced to Ryan Dusick by a mutual friend and guitarist, Adam Salzman. 1.8 2019–present: Madden's leave of absence and Jordi.1.6 2013–2016: V, return of Carmichael and lineup changes.1.5 2012: Carmichael's hiatus and Overexposed.1.2 2002–2006: Songs About Jane and Dusick's departure.1.1 1994–2001: Kara's Flowers and the formation of Maroon 5.Maroon 5 has sold more than 135 million records, making them one of the world's best-selling music artists. The band's seventh album Jordi, was released in June 2021. The successful singles of both albums " Sugar" and " Girls Like You" peaked at numbers two and one on the Hot 100 chart respectively. With the addition of Morton and Farrar, the band's lineup increased to seven members. In 2016, Maroon 5 recruited their long-time collaborator Sam Farrar, as the band continued for the sixth studio album Red Pill Blues, which was released in November 2017. Following the release of V, it reached number one on the Billboard 200. In 2014, Carmichael rejoined the band alongside Morton to record the fifth album V (roman numeral pronounced "five"), with the band signed to Interscope Records and Levine's own label 222 Records. In 2012, Carmichael left the group and was replaced by musician PJ Morton, as the band released the fourth album Overexposed, with the song " One More Night", topping the Billboard Hot 100 chart for nine consecutive weeks. In 2010, the band released the third album Hands All Over, to favorable reviews, re-releasing a year later to include the single " Moves like Jagger", which topped the Billboard Hot 100. It debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart and the lead single " Makes Me Wonder", became the band's first number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100. The band's second album It Won't Be Soon Before Long was released in May 2007. In 2006, Dusick left the band after suffering from serious wrist and shoulder injuries and was replaced by Matt Flynn. In the same year, the band won the Grammy Award for Best New Artist. Aided by the hit singles " Harder to Breathe", " This Love" and " She Will Be Loved", the album peaked at number six on the Billboard 200 chart and went quadruple platinum in 2005. The band signed with Octone Records, an independent record label with a separate joint venture relationship with J Records and released their debut album Songs About Jane in June 2002. In 2001, the band re-emerged as Maroon 5, pursuing a different direction and adding guitarist Valentine. The album garnered a tepid response, after which the record label dropped the band and the members focused on college. Original members Levine, Carmichael, bassist Mickey Madden, and drummer Ryan Dusick first came together as Kara's Flowers in 1994, while they were still in high school.Īfter self-releasing their independent album We Like Digging?, the band signed to Reprise Records and released the album The Fourth World in 1997.

1.22.03.Acoustic by Maroon 5

Then: I've always liked live acoustic versions of songs, deliberately seeking them out and downloading them. What is the song like at its core, stripped of its bells and whistles? What is the artist like when deprived of the luxury of autotune and multiple takes?

I don't remember exactly when I got 1.22.03.Acoustic, only that it was several years after its release. Perhaps I learned about it when browsing Wikipedia, or perhaps I found it on Youtube. Perhaps I was inspired to plumb Maroon 5's discography after watching a well-choreographed dance to “Secret.” Who knows?

Now: In my last post I expressed a preference for Maroon 5's demos rather than the full production releases. Too much instrumentation and slick effects covered up the cores of the songs. Quite pleasingly, the nature of 1.22.03.Acoustic strips the songs back to their cores again, even if it also reveals some flaws.

Adam Levine isn't the most skilled singer in the world; he loses control during a vocal descent in “This Love” and somehow manages to quietly screech flat notes during a cover of “If I Fell.” (If it hadn't been so painful to my ears, I would have been quite impressed at the improbable feat.) But the display of Adam's weaknesses also tells me the strengths are real as well, and are not the product of production. There's the simmering anger of “Harder To Breathe” that he's able to convey without yelling, and the intimacy of “She Will Be Loved” that makes the audience feel included rather than excluded.

Kudos to Ryan Dusick as well, who sings on the cover of “Highway to Hell.” He's quite a passable vocalist and should come out from behind the drums more often.

Red Pill Blues November 3rd

[mitjalovse]

You are correct, the debuts which succeed unexpectedly are hard to follow, which is why I am surprised Maroon 5 continue to have a fine career despite the fact Songs About Jane could have hovered over their entire opus. Sure, we cannot really this disc an introduction in the form of a disc, they released another platter before that under a different name, yet the point remains – they really have the best possible path for a band of their situation. Then again, Songs About Jane already showed us their pop rock with some weird elements, which they kept honing afterwards, until they became their trademarks. For instance, say what you will about Adam Levine's voice, but you cannot deny he makes himself noticeable with the latter more often.

[teacupfullofstars]

I still really love Maroon 5 but Won't be Soon Before Long and Hands all Over will always be their best albums.
