Okay, I was out and about today and the music playing on the overhead speakers was a Maroon 5 song. All of the songs sound the same and I just don't get their appeal. Does anyone else hate Maroon 5?

Plenty of people hate them.

Not me though! They had me at "This Love" and kept me with "Makes Me Wonder." Those were two of my favorites from last decade. I hate "Moves Like Jagger," though...

Moron 5 is one of the worst howe have they had 4 top 10 singles in a year and all are whining about loving some bitch... seriously all their fucking songs are about the same damn thing.

Adam Levine and his whiny voice is more annoying than Chad Kroger from Nickleback and also Levine is a huge frat boy douchebag who has the most punchable face.

White washed white boy rock for the masses 101- Moron 5

I thought their first two albums are not terrible (Prince's Controversy is all over the second album obviously). Now I couldn't care less. In any case, their Kiss cover is one of the worst Prince covers I've ever heard in my entire life, even worse than that Germany soccer club Kiss cover.

Hate is a strong word but I definitely dislike them and think they are a joke. Moves like jagger is a worthless piece of shit for a song. They better thank God that singer is halfway decent looking or they would be no where.

Heard that before he seems to leave this impression on many people (men, more likely) for some reason.

Trust me man... i live by UCLA close to the fraternities and i can say he looks like 75% of those useless sperms

I also do not get the ''sex symbol'' appeal for Levine...

Naturally folks will just say i am jealous but to me he just looks like an average white boy you can walk down the street and see dozens of in an hour! same with Timberlake.

I just never got why people make all these posts and blogs about how their the sexiest men alive

Hahaha...

A friend once refered to him as a "sushi eating, Avian water drinking, pretentious prick". All I could think to myself was "goddamn" talk about strong feelings.

I'm indifferent to the guy's music to be honest. They had the potential of being interesting when they first started out, but their stuff as of late sound predictable.

I like a few of their songs.I have tried to get into their albums,but I never like their albums all the way through...it's usually just one or two songs that appeal to me.

"Moves Like Jagger" is a crappy song I don't know how it ever became such a massive hit

Seriously - was that just payola or what? I guess they fill the post-boyband craving for a lot of folks? I really, really hate that song, and most of the recent ones.

"This Love" was cute but should've been about all we needed. Also, he's hot, but he needs to eat a burger.

It is funny - cus when I hear his voice it does just sound like fingernails on a chalkboard...

but then i wonder - do people that like him - feel that way about Prince ... or other artists that have that "sound" that just gets to people ....

different strokes ... different folks ...

I was shocked to see how well it was doing.It is a truly stupid song

Never liked, too bland and MOR for me. The Levine's dudes vocals are okay, but he needs to use them on better material, This Love was the worst song ever and "Moves like Jagger" was a huge misstep. Their music is hipster nonsense, pure and simple.

Then again, a lot of MOR is bland, 3 years ago I could not understand the fuss over groups like Train (Needs to be derailed) or Lady Antebellum. The only good thing about this garbage is that its not shit hop, disney boy band gunk or nu metal that rules the charts.

Why does their "music" (Sic and I use it lightly) even rule the charts, its fluffy rubbish. Then again the music industry needs to reprioritise its aims. There was a thing on our news last night, that One Direction will be the new Beatles.

Seriously, they are no talented cherry boys who have had TWO hits and both were not written by then and are machine pumped nonsense. Already there time is nearly up.

Look at Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber, nearly forgotten and Miley Cyprus and Jonas Brothers completely forgotten. The music industry only seems to care about overnight hits by marginally talented performers now anyway.

Hipsters hate Moron 5 there music is just watered down pop-rock i might get a blowjob tonight music.

I think Maroon 5 could make a great album,if someone like Pharrell produced it

They clearly like R&B and some of their songs hint at their R&B influences,but they should go all the way with it,at least for one album.

I have a love/hate relationship with them. Adam Levine sometimes sings like his nuts are in a vice grip. I really don't think he's as cute as everyone else does. Or certainly not as much as he does. Okay - perhaps I think the man just has too many random tattoos and looks better in clothing. But still, I think it's only a matter of time before he goes solo. The other guys in the band need haircuts and makeovers; why should Adam be the only "cute" one?

I'm surprised that Adam hasn't gone solo by now.He is clearly the "star" of the band and I'm sure he's gotten plenty of offers to do stuff outside the band.

Why would he need to go solo? The others are basically his backing band and his name is already out there thanks to The Voice. To the vast majority of people, Maroon 5 = Adam Levine.

I think the group's second album (It Won't Be Soon Before Long, the one with "Makes Me Wonder") is a consistently good listen.

i always found them boring. perhaps because i am boring person?

You do know Miley Cyrus has a top 10 hit right now that is played like 30 times a day on radio and GaGa is n music headlines nearly everyday with her antics for her new song... so i wouldn't say they are forgotten.

don't own anything by them but their debut had some memorable stuff that made me pay attention. i think adam's voice can be quite emotive at times. and i ain't gone front, as dumb as a song in concept, Moves like Jagger has a nice groove and does get asses shakin'

I didn't know he was supposed to be cute. I was standing right next to him at a show, and didn't notice until someone pointed him out.

Some people have that certain something that makes them stand out in a room. He doesn't have that. Some people are just interesting, star or not.

Saw him on The Voice and he clapped off beat. That's a definite turn off, (at least for me, pet peeve).

First you'd have to convince me he doesn't have all of those things right now.
