Maroon 5 - Songs about Jane
Three short recollections of this album. First, I was quite fascinated by a band called Kara’s Flowers who a released a thrash heavy pop song called ‘Soap Disco’ in 1997 so imagine my surprise when in 2003 they were called Maroon 5 and sounded nothing like Kara’s Flowers. Songs About Jane had a bunch of killer singles that made friends with the radio and then made friends with people’s ears.
She will be loved remains to this day a song I cant listen to because an ex boyfriend told me he thought it was our break up song. It creeped me out. I remember after a particularly long night out at a music festival, on the way home ‘This Love’ came on the radio and my friend and I were so mental we thought it was Robin Thicke. We were positive in fact for the whole ride home that it was Robin Thicke. The next day we worked it out and when we did, I was quietly impressed that Maroon 5 had something that cool in them. Too bad all their stuff since has been regurgitation mixed with synths. Snooze.
