"Memories" was released on September 20, 2019. and celebrate them too, which I think it's important". rather than fight about things, it's nice to have a common ground and all of us have had loss. In an interview of The Howard Stern Show, Levine said: "I needed this song", he continued: "In a world that's increasingly chaotic and crazy and angry in a lot of ways. We heard the skeleton of this song and thought it matched where we were at." We lost our longtime manager, Jordan Feldstein. You know, we experienced some loss in the last couple of years. According to guitarist, James Valentine: "It's a different kind of song for us…It's an important song for us. In other words, this song is for all of us." The song is based on the loss of the band's manager and Levine's friend, Jordan Feldstein who died in December 2017, from pulmonary embolism. The band's lead singer, Adam Levine, explained: "This song is for anyone who has ever experienced loss. It is Maroon 5's final single with bassist Mickey Madden, who announced his departure from the band in 2020, following his arrest for domestic violence. The single peaked at number two on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and at number one on the international music charts. Levine and the production team the Monsters and the Strangerz produced the song. The song was written by Maroon 5's lead singer Adam Levine, Stefan Johnson, Jordan Johnson, Michael Pollack, Jacob Kasher Hindlin, Jon Bellion, and Vincent Ford. "Memories" is based on " Canon in D Major" by German composer Johann Pachelbel. The song received generally negative reviews from music critics and was listed as one of the worst songs of 2019 by Spin magazine. Lyrically, the song pays homage to the memories of a loved one who has since passed. Now you have something to dance to while you mend your broken heart." Memories" is a song by American band Maroon 5, released through 222 and Interscope Records on September 20, 2019, as the lead single from the band's seventh studio album Jordi. It’s all done with a smile and, of course, a few smooth moves and dance beats to get you going. It will remind you of the ones that got away and the ones you wished you could get rid of. It’s fitting that this album is released right after Levine and girlfriend Victoria’s Secret model Anne Vyalitsyna breakup, because there are clearly some hard feelings left to explore. Where we are used to love ballads, instead Maroon 5 has breakup songs. Levine sings each genre with his trademark high voice, but once or twice you get to see him explore his lower register for the first time. There are upbeat dance songs, straight-up pop tunes, ballads and more rocking tunes. This is a perfect mix of their first and second albums, but still moving forward to give us new sides of their music and Levine’s voice. This is what Maroon 5 was trying to do on their last album, but failed. It’s emotional, fun, touching, catchy and everything in between. The difference from their last album is that they have managed to find a balance between the genres. It may be a bit bi-polar mixing the two genres, but that is what fans have come to expect. They have always been a pop-meets-rock band with a dance twist and Overexposed is much the same. Following up a hit of that magnitude can’t be easy, but Maroon 5 didn’t let the dance success change them. With a tongue in cheek title acknowledging frontman Adam Levine’s fame on The Voice, these men offer up their fourth album, Overexposed, this week. Now that the world has ‘Moves Like Jagger’, it was time for Maroon 5 to release and album to follow up the huge single.
