I was feeling so lazy today that i didn't think i was going to do a review (i think it's the weather! Too cold). But then i thought to myself, what the hell, Maroon5 deserve a decent review! The Pop band released their album on the 15th of September, and l made sure i got my hands all over their album. I have to admit it, im a Maroon5 die hard fan, but i'll try not to take sides on this review to be as fair as possible.
The standard version of the album contains 12 songs. The Deluxe edition contains 19 songs. As i mentioned earlier, since im a Maroon5 fan then you would've probably guessed that i bought the Deluxe version. Here is a list of the songs:
1. Misery
2. Give a Little More
3. Stutter
4. Don't Know Nothing
5. Never Gonna Leave This Bed
6. I Can't Lie
7. Hands All Over
8. How
9. Get Back in My Life
10. Just a Feeling
11. Runaway
12. Out of Goodbyes ft. Lady Antebellum
13. Last Chance
14. No Curtain Call
15. Never Gonna Leave This Bed (acoustic version)
16. Misery (acoustic version)
17. If I Ain't Got You (Live) (Alicia Keys)
18. The Air That I Breathe
19. Last Chance (Live)
Now lets get a bit serious. The album has many great songs; however, some of these songs don't have that WOW factor. What i mean is that, you won't come to like some of these songs unless u hear them over and over and get used to them. As a Maroon5 fan, i was a bit disappointed with the quality of some songs, but nonetheless i enjoyed my over all album experience. My favorite songs from this album would be: Misery, Give a Little More, Stutter, Never Gonna Leave This Bed, Runaway, Last Chance, No Curtain Call and If I Ain't Got You (Live). I would have to say that my biggest disappointment would be the Hands All Over song. Choosing it to be their album title, i expected it to blow me out of my mind. But unfortunately it didn't. What i would like to have seen in this album would be some more collaborations with different artists. I think that might have increased the popularity of this album a bit.
My neutral rating for this album would be 7/10.
My personal rating 9/10.
Good Luck Maroon5, Cheers!
