This kinda reminds me of Marvin's "Funk Me".

Maroon 5 has always dropped great pop-funk records. This is another one. I like these guys. They are consistent.

I like Maroon 5. They have some decent stuff (and some crap of course).

"Woman" from the Spiderman soundtrack is a really awesome track.

However, the lead singer annoys me. I can't explain it. Something about his demeanor. He makes me want to punch him in the face.

This song has passed the most important test in music which should be the sole purpose of all songs by all artists. I feel my ass starting to move! thumbs up!

I like it music Reminds me of the retro-funk/disco that Jamiroquai does so well.

You should be because you have done a major accomplishment. You found a new song by an artist that came out in the 2000s that I actually like. lol

That's exactly who it reminds me of. When I heard Robin Thicke's "Magic Touch" for the first time, I thought it was Jamiroquai also.

I know these dudes get picked on a lot, but I like them. I don't have any of their albums but they are one of the very few artists I will not turn off if they are on the radio.

I love this new album. Maroon 5 has really grown since "Songs About Jane." And the video to 'Gives A Little More" is just too hot and funky. I just love them!

It's because, at least in his videos, he has that arrogant you-want-me self confidence that, irritatingly, probably gets him an endless procession of hot sex. Bastard.

You can't be for real.

This is weak.

You forced me to blast some 20Ten for reassurance!

You're so glam, every time I see you I wanna slam!

agreed, and occasionally the tone of his voice annoys me. But they are not bad. Actually a friend compared my own band to Maroon 5 recently when he saw us play. I have never bought a Maroon 5 disc, but I felt complemented.

Yes this is kind of Marvinish from the Midnight Love album.

Nice tune.

This song is just okay, but it's super slick and a little bit funky. I give it a "meh" and a half.

Just saw a perfume commercial in between the Vikings-Bears game

featuring Funky Space Reincarnation from Marvin Gaye's Midnight Love album.

What a coincidence.

Adam Levine is hot, but I can no longer stand his voice.

This reminds me of the 1980's group called Rythm Syndicate.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Maroon 5 performed this last week on Jimmy Fallon and it was amazing. It was better live than this recording (which I'm hearing now for the first time).
