The least relevant point in this article about the potential song of the summer this year, and perhaps the least surprising: an uptempo lead single is coming in about a month. Lucky Strike lol!! Just slight remixed/tweaked, more retro and hotter= song of the summer!! :o  |

Happy to hear it's an uptempo. I'd love a retro uptempo like "Makes Me Wonder". Would fit in with the sounds of the moment, while still being very Maroon 5 and not trend chasing. Like I said besides a Lucky Strike kind of song or, yes, MMW would be ace! Funny thing is MMW in 2007 was like 6 years 'ahead' of its time lol- (totally an early 80s/dance funk song). I bet MMW would smash even harder today than 7 years ago! |

Hope I like it! Overexposed is by far my least favorite album of theirs, although it did have a couple great songs (Payphone, Lucky Strike). I'm expecting this to be more of the same but we'll see.

Source With those producers, I do expect something similar to Overexposed.

www.hitsdailydouble.com/news/rumormill.cgiNEW MAROON UNFOLDS: "Maps," the lead single from Maroon 5's forthcoming album V, its first on Interscope (due on 9/2), will hit radio and iTunes on 6/16. The new album finds Adam Levine and mates working with producer/writers Max Martin, Ryan Tedder, Benny Blanco, Shellback and Sam Martin. Keyboardist Jesse Carmichael also returns to the fold after a hiatus that began in 2012. While the Grammy winners' prior album, Overexposed, was unquestionably a monster, with six Pop #1s, Levine has also solidified his mainstream stardom as a coach on NBC's The Voice. (6/3a)

That's not even an update? Was he expecting us him to say that "our endeavors in the studio are so damn pathetic!"?  |

I'm gonna revisit each album before I give my definitive ranking. That said, I don't believe they've made a "bad" album yet. They haven't. I can't really rank. |

Yea. It should be 4 from "OVEREXPOSED", but 5 straight Pop #1s. 'MLJ' originally made it on "HANDS ALL OVER" deluxe edition.

Well if that isn't the most basic Ryan Tedder retread I've heard in ages. How underwhelming and mediocre.

It sounds kind of disjointed. The verses sound like they came out of the Songs About Jane recording session, but then it morphs into a kind of generic 2010s dance-pop hook.

I'm sure tons of people have said this before, but their logo has had the V for 5 the whole time representing 5 members, I wonder if just the M will be their 5th album cover?  |

Maps has grown on me although it's far from being one of their best songs.

It's so weird. I usually play their first singles out but I have only listened to this song once and can't remember how it goes.

I'm sorry but I think that cover is hideous. The color scheme makes my eyes want to bleed.
Anyways, Maps has really grown on me. I like it better than most of their other lead singles now.
