"Maroon 5 is band you're going to be hearing a lot of for many years to come!"

Adam Levine looks like the kind of guy who'd bang the 'Adam Levine' from an all-female Maroon 5 coverband.

happened in a bojack spec script set in chris nolan's birthday party

its pretty amazing that Maroon 5 is at Super Bowl-level stardom and nobody knows who the other Maroon 4 are. pretty rare for a band this big to not have at least one other semi-recognizable dude

The decision to turn Levine into Natalie Merchant in 2010 didn't help

where is the poptimist who will stan for this band

j0rdan and perhaps others who also stanned for charlie puth's latest lp contraristanned for maroon 5's recent releases

I've noticed on AAA radio a whole strain of pseudo-indie bands that essentially sound like Maroon 5. All these white "soul" bands with a propensity for bad falsettos.

Adam Levine looks like the kind of guy that would lock himself out of his house just so that he could grease himself up and squeeze through the cat door.

lol

Let it be said that stanning for Puth /= stanning for the Maroons.

tbh, i like a few maroon 5 songs

i do too! i would guess that most people who like 'pop' would cop to enjoying a few m5 tunes, more likely concentrated toward the first several years of their hitmaking run

there's a 12 minute song on the last record that's p great

first three albums an almost unimpeachable run of singles

somehow able to hold these thoughts in my head while recognizing this band is largely worthless

beyond the novelty of maroon 5 doing a 12-minute cut i didn't really feel that one much in the end. i did however enjoy the track w/ a$ap rocky lol, it has more sparseness and subtlety to it than most of their output + levine manages to access a sense of disorientation that i otherwise have seldom heard from him vocally

Adam Levine looks like the kind of "man" that some bigtime network TV producers would pay to have flown out to my West Virginia coal mining community so he could live with us and work with us for a week, all in the name of so-called "reality" TV. You want a joke? Well there's your joke right there. Assuming he even has the strength and courage to work with us, to do the real work that men from my town have done for all the weeks of their adult lives for generations past and for generations to come, none of it would be "real." He's a phony. All your tattoos and fancy cars and Beverly Hills mansions ain't mean shit if you can't hold down a real job and provide for your family by mining a real product from this earth like we do. Like we've fought like hell for the right to do, while you and Bono and Lio DeCaprio try and take it away from us. While he does what, prances around and sings and gyrates? Like a damn woman? I say, no sir. He looks like the kind of man whose back would break no sooner than his spoiled soul would. The fact that he'd even be considered a sex symbol to women (and probably men) worldwide is one of the clearest symptoms of our culture's disease - and the diagnosis is terminal. Just another phony from la-la land, singing and dancing for the big Super Bowl halftime show with all his phony showbiz friends. Probably never even tried out for his high school football team, assuming they even had one. No sir, ain't no sense in even trying to make a joke about you and the way you look, Adam Levine. Because you are a joke to me.

Maroon 5, let me tell you about a little something called Ezekiel 33:31: "And they come unto thee as the people cometh, and they sit before thee as my people, and they hear thy words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they shew much love, but their heart goeth after their covetousness."

good mourning!

where did that get c+p'd from

entertainment tonight or one of those other lousy shows was on in the break room at some point last week and i heard him say that part of his preparation was to work out even more than usual so he could 'delivery the right energy' or w/e. i figured this was just silly posturing, i wasn't smart enough to surmise then that he was primarily preparing to disrobe onstage

i like my lead singers shredded ymmv

maaaany xposts. some decent stanning for maroon 5 there, brad

i will say i have had a number of their crap songs in my head today

this love has taken its toll on you

lmao at the del griffith posts

many people were decrying the halftime show as a trainwreck, which I thought was ironic because the only worse band I could think of was train

I didn’t watch it but in the interest of contrarianism, I think it was the best super bowl halftime show in my lifetime

adam levine looks like the kind of guy who jacked off to cat person

This is slanderous by the way. He just looked like an oily, handsome guy

he had the haircut of a 40 year old suburbanite in suspended adolescence and I should know because I am one

I’m surprised it’s caused this much discussion. I thought people knew what adam levine looked like

Tattooing california across your torso is tacky don’t get me wrong but so is posting to ilx

this should probably be in controversial opinion, but I find Adam Levine hot when he's not actually performing music.

Like in that movie? "Begin Again"?

xp don't in any way say that there's anything good about Adam Levine in this or any other thread; what one finds hot is in actuality controversial

He has an entire clothing line at K Mart. It wouldn't have been that expensive to clothe him.

I think he probably is pretty hot, with a Navy Seal-like vibe or something? I also really love Ibanez Jem-series guitar, particularly the neon ones.

he's got a real non-aesthetic aesthetic going on for sure

He says unexpectedly funny, self deprecating things. Maybe this is like what happens when men find out hot women have thoughts. Or maybe it's the yoga thing.

Now I am looking at that pic of Trudeau planking on a table.

where is the poptimist who will stan for this band

this kind of music is p popular on ilx from what i can tell. you know, shit music.

In that aspect Levine reminds me of Mick Hucknall.

(and come to think of it, also other aspects)

he was funny on 30 rock

you're a delight

there's a great tim f blurb centered around "what lovers do" somewhere on this board

"It Is Happening Again": Tim writes about songs from 2017

there it is

he was funny on 30 rock

Adam Levine is probably a nice person. This is over the top.

actually... (thread)

But seriously, ask me how Adam Levine got me fired from Rolling Stone.

hm ok

ah i see

Ahem. B/c this is blowing up in a way I didn't intend -- or maybe I did? -- let me point out that I'd been given clear instructions from my editors and I more or less ignored them, a dumb thing for any writer to do. I didn't give them what they wanted, which is a writer's job.

Maroon 5 is band and you should all feel bad
