Bummer. I don't like the cover. I still love "Maps" tho. Looking forward to hearing more from this album.

Album pre-order is #1 on iTunes; pre-order download is It Was Always You (generic to me).

Is Sex and Candy a cover of the 90s song?

Is Sex and Candy a cover of the 90s song? Very likely - their last two albums have also had deluxe-only covers in the same vein (Queen's "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" on Hands All Over and Prince's "Kiss" on Overexposed).

I like all there music for the most part from their last few cd's so everything sounds great to me so far. I'll be the first to admit though that I enjoy there more poppier tunes than their more rock oriented material.

Animals has to be a single. HAS to be. That is a smash in the waiting.

Animals sounded better in the commercial than it did as a full song.

Listening to "Animals" gives me flashbacks to when I first heard "One More Night"...I think we'll be hearing a lot of this song soon enough.

Is Animals the second single? Think I like it. I only listened once. I want to be a little surprised when I get the album...

Out of the three tracks released so far, "Animals" is by far the best and the only one I've liked.

Album is out. Very disappointed. The three songs we already heard are the best.

Damn Adam... "When I'm inside you."
Could have just said "When I'm with you"... but now we get the visual :)

Underwhelmed after the first listen, but I have a feeling it'll grow on me as Overexposed did. Adam sounds kind of bored a lot. Highlights are "It Was Always You," "Animals," "Sugar," and maybe "Coming Back For You." "Unkiss Me" sounds like the "Daylight" of the album, so I won't be surprised if it's the third single.
Also, the chorus of "Feelings" keeps making me think the chord's going to resolve and become "American Boy," but it doesn't. :/

Can someone do me a huge favor? I can't find the physical explicit STANDARD edition of the album on amazon. I don't want to pay 15.88 for the deluxe so if you find it can you PLEASE post the link! Thanks :)

The album has hot instrumentals but a lot of these songs just sound way too similar on first listen, save the Gwen song. The singles definitely should go Animals, It Was Always You, then Sugar. It's strange that Overexposed had so many more potential singles.
And I was EXTREMELY disappointed in the Sex and Candy cover.

Well, this album is better than "Overexposed," which really isn't saying much. But they've got more than enough radio singles here. The duet with Gwen is dull and boring though, and it's disappointing to hear that much auto-tune on her voice. It does not compliment her tone whatsoever.
