Maroon 5: Songs About Jane
This band of rocker boys know how to groove. According to my sometimes-seventeen-year-old, Maroon 5 is too Pop, but I think they have funky R&B meets disco thang going on that really works. Songs About Jane is well worth purchasing just for the cover art, not to mention all the great tracks. The chart topper Harder to Breathe is a regular on my MP3 player (my kids love that one), Sunday Morning makes me want to reach for the Stevie Wonder and if someone wrote She Will Be Loved for me I would gladly roam the country on tour in the band’s smelly van.
It’s pretty hard to cut a second album that holds up to a debut this good, but It Won’t Be Soon Before Long is a close second. Take a listen to Little of Your Time and try not to dance. (Great for your workout!)
