Free Music Notes for It Won't Be Soon Before LongFree Music Review: impressed Hit: 5 Starsafter getting used to the first cd they had Songs About Jane i wasn't sure what to expect from their 2nd cd, but i was happily impressed!! it is almost better than SAJ!!
there aren't many tracks on this cd that i don't like, they all have something just alittle different but still has the Maroon5 sound.
if you are thinking about getting your first Maroon5 cd, might i make the suggestion that you buy this one 1st!! if you like this cd you will be hooked on them for sure.

Free Music Review: Great CD! Hit: 5 StarsIn general, I hated Songs About Jane. This album is a great effort that takes this band in a different direction. Instead of a CD targeted towards love-sick sorority girls, this CD shows that even a boyish-faced lead singer can rock a little bit.
Free Music Review: More songs about love and loss, but with a new sound this time Hit: 5 StarsDid Maroon 5 front man Adam Levine grow tired of belting out songs about heartbreak for the band's first album, Songs About Jane? Apparently not! On their second CD release, It Won't be Soon Before Long, Maroon 5 continues to focus on stories of love gone wrong. But don't be fooled into thinking this album is simply Songs About Jane, Part 2, as there is plenty that sounds different and new here.
"Wake Up Call," the first single, is arguably the best song on the album. The brief but fast-paced opening riff grabs you right into the tune's gritty sound, with dark lyrics that recount a disturbing tale. Contrast this with the next track, "Won't Go Home Without You," a sadly soulful tune with more evocative lyrics--you'll definitely find this one running through your head. The sweeter, softer sound continues with the following song, "Nothing Lasts Forever" and then again on "Goodnight Goodnight." Several tunes on the album have an almost jazzy feel, especially the last two, "Better That We Break," and "Back at Your Door." "Makes Me Wonder," another of the album's singles, is another favorite of mine. Finally, the two songs I don't particularly care for are "Little of Your Time" (seemed too fast-paced, frenetic) and "Sweet Kiwi" (a non-distinctive, general pop sound).
Overall, this is another great album from what has turned out to be my favorite current band. Although I think I would still give Songs About Jane the slight edge, It Won't Be Soon Before Long is a solid offering in its own right, and I rate it 4 1/2 stars.
Free Music Review: Maroon 5 Gets Five Stars For This Album Hit: 5 StarsIn the past, Maroon 5 just seemed another band which sounded like many others. Finally, the band got a little hipper with this release. The hit single, "Makes Me Wonder", is a crowd-pleaser. But, there are plenty of other songs which are equally good like "Goodnight Goodnight", "Kiwi", and "If I Never See Your Face". This new album infuses electric and funk which reminds me alot of Peter Gabriel and other 80's artists.
Free Music Review: heartbreaker Hit: 5 StarsLove the CD. As always Adam Levine writes about relationships gone bad...in varying degrees. Normally, that would be depressing (at least for me) but the lyrics are so well written and set so well, you can't dance along to his pain.
