The early iTunes performance is actually a bit disgraceful for a brand new M5 song. Even Sugar did much better out of the gate as a 3rd single. Actually, Sugar only started picking up speed on iTunes because they released the massively successful viral video (Sugar is their most viewed video OF ALL TIME, btw). "Summer" only has a lyric video and fledgling radio play so far. Not at all the same. This is Maroon 5, not Taylor Swift. They don't shoot up to top #10 on iTunes without continued exposure. Sugar thread: I still hold that this album has no more big hits after Animals. I think this song, It Was Always You, Unkiss Me, and Coming Back for You are all like #7-10 peaking songs on CHR Kinda annoying to see this smashing like this tbh. It's really boring and bland. Even if "Summer" does end up flopping, I think the Maroon 5 "I told you so" ship might have already sailed for you...

THIS is what they snubbed "It Was Always You" for?! This is the first single of their entire career that I do not like.
Girl bye.

Yeah I'm not really feeling this single. Animals and Sugar were amazing and catchy but this song just bores me. The verses are good but the chorus is very weak

I keep noticing lots of negative comments on their Facebook posts about this (which, for most bigger artists, is usually a bunch of stans screaming "yas! I love you! come to Brazil!") - therefore curious to see how callout scores turn out for this, especially on HAC (I listen to SiriusXM's HAC station most of the time and they were very slow to add "Animals" while driving "Maps" and "Sugar" into the ground; I won't be surprised if the same happens here). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So, watching their Voice performance was the first time I heard the song in its entirety because I couldn't sit through it the first time, when I watched the lyric video on Vevo. This is one of the few times when I think the censored version of a song is 10x better. A-ooo-oo-ahh-ahh is pretty catchy, ngl.

I tested it out on a few of my friends this past weekend. Hit. Every. Time.
With Maps, Animals, and now this, I think this is the first time a Maroon 5 album has had 3 singles I really enjoyed.

Excellent! And it still hasn't even been a full year since Maps was unleashed.
I hope this ends up being the across the board #1 smash that that wasn't.

I love the chorus, it's so catchy and just really STICKS in my head. They lose me with the verses though; I have no idea what Adam Levine is saying lol.

I dare ask if the negative comments are because this new song has a very strong Indie vibe to it? Honestly; I was hesitant to give it a listen; as I was expecting the worst EDM summer song I could imagine, featuring some D.J. that's either dating Ellie Goulding or Selena Gomez. Thank you , Maroon 5 for proving me wrong. This is a great song. This is totally up my alley. Love it from the get go. Maroon 5 have gone from Alt/Rock to AAA, Mainstream Pop and now Indie style.

I love this. Me and my friends can't stop singing this, which is surprising because we are all into rock music.

I'm not a Maroon 5 fan at all, but this is a pretty poor song coming from them. It is pretty boring and I don't see the appeal of it. And yeah sorry this is pop and indie.

4 singles.Do you remember Sugar? I think glove slap meant that they didn't like Sugar, lol. I know I didn't. Yeah Sugar was just really boring to me. That and Love Somebody are probably the most boring singles from their recent output, although neither are technically bad. They're just dull.

Usually even their songs that I'm not crazy about are still enjoyable enough, but I just can't stand this one. I've only listened to it once and I wanted to turn it off halfway through. I just kept hoping it would get better. :(

Sugar was great. Birthday comparisons aside, I thought it was really catchy the way they repeated a word in the verses. Just added to the "sing-along" factor.
