In my eyes however; the definition of a great album is one that leaves a lasting impression on you, which of course this doesn't. Having said this I mustn't be too negative as the album does provide some entertainment and enjoyment, albeit soon forgotten. 'Won't Go Home Without You' is reminiscent of 'She Will Be Loved' in its intro, but other than this initial buzz is devoid ...

Too Long Too Late? Review ofIt Won't Be Soon Before Long - Maroon 5by
lisacallow
Advantages: A mix of styles and catchy tracks Disadvantages: Almost half of the album is weak and feels like repetition!
...and his then girlfriend. Whatever it was, coupled with the influences of by-gone superstars including Lionel Richie and Prince, the album was a polished debut that enabled the band to spin from it for the next five years.
It Won’t Be Soon Before Long:
Perhaps aptly named given the bands departure from the mainstream charts over the last five years, the new album is both more refreshing and refined than the first. Having taken their time, Maroon ... ...well as Michael Jackson, and it isn’t difficult to notice this when listening closely to the album. Levine’s voice although drier, could be described as a cross between Prince and Jay-Kay from Jamiroquai, and seems to have established a pitch not dissimilar to either two. The album itself is quite reminiscent of Jamiroquai’s heyday, tracks like Canned Heat and Little L feel as if they should have been compiled on the M-5 album. Unlike Jamiroquai, ...

Advantages: A few Great Tracks, quite varied tracks Disadvantages: Too many ballads. most songs are quite short.
...not everyone. Not sure why it has been so long, but lets just enjoy now it's here.
*Track 1*
If I Never See Your Face Again - This track is a nice opener, very similar to their old stuff, but it doesn't have enough for me. It's just a nice Pop song, nothing special. Time 3.21 minutes
*Track 2*
Makes Me Wonder - I'm sure you all know this by now, if not by name, then by the actual song. It took me a few times of playing it to like it, but it did ... ...beat, and I was hoping it would go on for a little longer. Very catchy chorus. Different to anything of theirs. A nice change. Time 2.17 minutes.
*Track 4*
Wake Up Call - This is an amazing track. I had heard it on the Lottery Show, and wasn't sure, but it definately sounds better on the album. It has a nice up beat sound, great guitar sounds, and a nice gradual build up to the end. It could do with being a lot longer though. This is my favourite. ...

Advantages: 12/14 catchy tracks that you can listen to again and again Disadvantages: blank
...This is another fantastic track. It is a very easy listening track with a guitar melody as the main part of the backing track.
7.: Can't Stop - This is another one of the tracks that I constantly played. Again it is a very catchy pop/rock track. It is all about someone who you can stop thinking about and your just wishing you can get their attention. It has a fantastic guitar breakdown in the middle 8 on lead up to the final chorus.
10.: Kiwi - ... ...attracted to it as I thought Kiwi was quite an unusual name for a track. In my opinion i think Kiwi is supposed to be a woman/girl. The song is basically about love & lust. It is quite a simple but sexy track with a very catchy middle 8 which is what made me like the song the most! There is also a huge rock guitar breakdown at the end making a great finish to a great track.
13.: Until You're Over Me (bonus track) - This was one of the tracks that ...
