maroon 5: overly exposed

photo from maroon5.com

they so are, but in a great way.

maroon 5 is back with their fourth studio album overexposed. i haven't listened to all of the songs in the album yet, but it only took an intro from the first song of this new album and i'm crazy for them. again.

everybody might be talking about the album's single payphone, but i'd rather talk about the second single on the album. as i've mentioned, this one got me my by the intro. it's levine, i mean divine! i'm talking about this cool, reggae-like song called one more night.  the song talks about a seemingly terminal relationship, yet the person involved doesn't have the strength to end things just yet because of, i don't know, love maybe? the song is definitely something new from maroon 5 in terms of beat, tempo, tone and of course the voice were all crisp and smooth. another mood-altering song.

i've always admired how maroon 5 can pull off songs about heartbreaks and relationships without sounding cheesy. they have their own unique way of expressing deep feelings and emotions. every song in every album they've recorded tells about a story of someone at some point in their lives. it's amazing that their music has this effect on my mood that when i hear them, i wanted to get on my feet and move my body. even if it may not be like a jagger.

here's the video. hope you'll enjoy it as much as i did. :)

one more night

you and i go hard at each other like we're going to war

you and i go rough we keep throwin' things and slammin' the door

you and i get so damn dysfunctional we stuck keepin' score

you and i get sick  yeah i know that we can't do this no more

(ehhh)

but baby there you go again, there you go again makin' me love you

yeah i stopped usin' my head, usin' my head let it all go

got you stuck on my body, on my body like a tattoo

and now i'm feelin' stupid, feelin' stupid crawlin' back to you

so i cross my heart and i hope to die

that i'll only stay with you one more night

and i know i said it a million times

but i'll only stay with you one more night

try to tell you no but my body keeps on telling you yes

try to tell you stop but your lipstick got me so out of breath

i'll be wakin' up in the mornin' probably hatin' myself

and i'll be wakin' up feelin' satisfied but guilty as hell

yeah baby give me one more night

yeah baby give me one more night

yeah baby give me one more night

yeah baby give me one more night
