My first reaction was the same as most of y’all it seems; basically just waiting for this song to go somewhere and it never did, and thus just feels bland.

Honestly I've found more taste in water than I have with bland ass song
I really hope this somehow fails on radio and everything else

Horribly bland
The only single in recent memory that I like was What Lovers Do

I mean, it's not terrible. But it coasts by and absolutely nothing happens. There needed to be some kind of transition in the instrumental. I kept waiting for drums or a beat to kick in and it just never did.
Not that I wish negativity on anyone, but I hope this era flops all around and they go into legacy status. They need to stop worrying about making hits/radio and start taking chances. And they're not going to do that if radio keeps playing these bland, safe-ass songs.

I finally listened to it and it's kind of plain... It's not boring the way most of their songs have been in the last 5-8 years because clearly there's a shift in their sound on this one but the person who said it was like their Love Yourself was spot on. This doesn't go anywhere. How can a group have such success with songs that do nothing and go nowhere? His vocals have been gradually declining. 🤢 I noticed this too. Adam used to have a pretty versatile voice. Listen to this next to anything from Songs About Jane and you wouldn't think it's the same singer. The decline is real on all fronts. Don't @ me Maroon 5 stan.

I can't believe in 2019 there are Maroon 5 stans out there, but at the same time we have a Leona Lewis stan posting in what seems like every thread on the board.

I can never get over the amount of hate these guys get on this board. Can’t wait for this to be #1 for eight weeks. #haters :)

I listened to this and thought it was a pretty boring track to just throw out, not thinking this had a snowballs chance in hell at being a radio single- then I saw this thread.

They were ready to disband when Hands All Over initially underperformed. Moves Like Jagger revived their commercial prospects and they have been on a great success streak ever since... but I have very little reason to believe they won't disband the minute they start flopping.
I just don't think they have the creativity needed to keep making music once it stops selling. Adam seems to be over the whole thing.

You all will be happy to learn that this is still true ^^^ Maroon 5 success is magically fueled by Pulse haterade, so keep it up, everyone! It's working!

One day we will finally accept as a society that pointing out flaws and being critical is not the same as being a hater. Clearly that's still far away given how childish we love to act, but a man can dream, right?

Clearly that's still far away given how childish we love to act, but a man can dream, right? People in here are telling us how much they dislike the song. That's literally hating lol. Comments like this are HATING: You don't have to sugar coat it by describing it as "pointing out flaws and being critical". It's hating. The song isn't "flawed". He's not singing off key. The chords aren't incorrect. There are no objective mistakes in the song. Y' all just don't like it. That's fine. You don't have to. I'm just pointing out that it doesn't matter. It never does. Y'all can like each others posts all you want, like an anti-Maroon 5 support group in you want. If it makes you feel better. But, this song is still #1 on iTunes right now.
