The difference between most artists today and Maroon 5 is that whenever a song is made using “simple” notes or lyrics, Maroon 5 does this stylistically. “Girls Like You” like most modern hits, breaks this mold by using only what is necessary to make a song. Bands like Guns N” Roses ruled the rock genre with hits like “November Rain” capitalizing on exploring their art with a tasteful number of instruments. When you think of top songs from decades like the 90’s or 80’s, one may think of multiple instruments coordinating together like a smaller modern-day orchestra. One has to ask the question though: does “Girls Like You” have that same potential? Maroon 5’s fourth album “Overexposed” top hit “One More Night” stayed at the top of the list for nine consecutive weeks. Levine and company are no strangers to producing top quality songs. Sitting at number one on the Billboard Top 100 for six weeks straight, “Girls Like You” does not seem to be leaving the top five anytime soon. A band that started out as alternative, has slid into the pop genre with ease changing the genre little by little each day. Maroon 5 is known for not being afraid to explore outside of their genre. Levine finally hits the first lyric blending his voice with Carmichael’s guitar chords. Adam Levine’s presence is felt as he waits patiently for his cue to sing. Standing alone, the strings sing out notes that fly off the neck of the guitar fluidly. A guitar plays, the chords of strings are plucked at a quick tempo.
