March Song of the Month: Sugar by Maroon 5

Okay this song was following me around on March 1. It was the last song on in the car while I was driving to the sailing center for the regatta. Yes, I did stay in my car to listen to the end of the song.  I really like it, what can I say. And then when I got back in my car after finishing up for the day, guess which song came on? That’s right Sugar by Maroon 5. Personally I am not that big of a fan of Maroon 5. I think Adam Levine has a kind of screechy voice- sorry to all the Adam Levin lovers out there. But I really like this song because it has a really positive message and is super sweet (pun totally intended).  I think the reason why I like this song the best is the music video. See below

 

 While the vocals may not be the best and yes it is defiantly commercialized pop. The music video is so adorable and I could watch it about 100 times. Sometimes we just need to listen to commercialized pop music. I think is song is successful for good reason. It is also really cool how the music video features all the members of Maroon 5 not just Adam. It is called Maroon 5 for a reason; there are 6 band members.  I know that makes no sense, but there were at one point 5 members, it is just that there are 6 members now. I think they should change their name to Maroon 6, but that’s just me.

Anyways the song for the month of March is Sugar by Maroon 5. Maroon 5 is a American pop rock band that originated from Los Angeles, California. They were found in 1994, a long time ago in my opinion for the band, as Kara's Flowers while its members were still in high school. Other hit songs of Maroon 5 that you might know of are Moves Like Jagger , Makes Me Wonder, and Misery.  The band consists of members Matt Flynn, James Valentine, Adam Levine, Jesse Carmichael, Mickey Madden, and PJ Morton.
