"This Love" is an ok Maroon 5 song. However, the only great song by Skipper Levine (and the rest...) is "Makes Me Wonder". It's possibly the most catchiest and funkiest Maroon 5 song of their discography.

Harder to Breathe>This Love

[@nightmarefanatic1819]

I would habe put "Harder to Breathe" or "Wake Up Call" for Maroon Five. Also, I remember "Wasting My Time" being on the radio ALL THE TIME. I heard it several times a day during my childhood where I'd listen for hours, and it wasn't until this video that I knew the name of the band who did it. Also also, despite actually liking "I Stand Alone" I second putting Voodoo on this list. Even my church going aunt liked that song for how catchy it is.

[@mikeomatic9905]

To be fair, `Artist: Default` just sounds like a bug in the software

[@lw3764]

Yeah Harder to Breathe is pretty good, and I don't really like Maroon 5.

[@nightmarefanatic1819]

@@mikeomatic9905 It boggles my mind that I didn't know who did it for all the times I heard it on the radio, I don't remember ever once hearing a Deejay mention the band name. Given that I heard the song Time and Time Again exactly ONCE ever on the radio and knew it was by Chronic Future tells me it isn't my failing memory, but that might be because it was a radio debacle that absolutely pissed me off and made me resent New Found Glory for more than their annoying music (even if what happened wasn't their fault.)

[@Link-ji7kx]

Default also have Deny which is just as good as Wasting My Time. Listen to it! It’s good!

[@Oregonduck09]

Harder to Breath is the only true "Rock" song they have, and it's one of the only good songs, maybe they should have stayed in that lane.

I actually like all of those early Godsmack singles. And think that the acoustic E.P. is very very good. Troll at will. 🤣

First time I heard "Blurry" was in the form of a cover made by a guy called Cassius Povey... a convicted serial rapist who got 17 years for nine different counts. I doubt Wes would be too pleased to hear one of his fans is such a monster.

[@lenalarson3547]

I Stand Alone is very special to me as a survivor of M/D domestic violence. It still is as the song starts how I felt and ends how I feel right now. The memories will always hurt but they haven't dictated my life since because I keep it that way. Its nice too know I have good tastes in angst.

[@velvetbrainhaze]

I used to love AJR in middle school and I genuinely still believe Jack has a likeable singing voice. I havent listened to them in 4 years but I wish they took the hints of ska root more often instead a lot of the awkward and clustered electronic instrumentals and auto tune they do a lot of time. The Dumb Song is charming.

[@Volkaroar]

I know Default is pretty straightforward with their rock, but their other song Throw It All Away was also a pretty solid tune from them. Sure, they kept with a formula that worked for a while but I wouldn't really consider them heavily butt rock in comparison to the others that fill that brand.

[@jeezycreezy4220]

[@Outerspaceman21]

I don't care for Godsmack's music, but they do put on a decent live show. I took my wife to go see them last year with Staind, which was a band that helped her through some really bad times with their music. She was excited to see them again, and all the excitement deflated when Aaron Lewis lumbered on stage and started phoning it. Seeing her disappointment like that really chapped my ass, so I was very pleased when Sully and crew came on afterwards and PERFORMED. It really turned the night around. I may not care for their music and they certainly have produced some of the buttiest butt rock that ever farted into existence, but they gets points in my book for that.

[@thetonytaye]

Fun fact about Maroon 5: The Fourth World (the second of their two albums as Kara’s Flowers) was produced by Rob Cavallo and mixed by the late Jerry Finn. As I’m sure most of you probably already know, this is the same team that worked on some of Green Day’s most acclaimed work (as well as a number of other famous pop punk/power pop acts, both together and apart) Really makes you wonder the kind of music they would’ve gone on to make if they kept these guys in their current incarnation amirite?

Whenever I see Default come up (which is not very often), I tell this story and am yet to find some satisfaction: Back when custom ringtones for cell phones were new and becoming popular, I remember a commercial where a kid is showing off all of the custom ringtones for his contacts to his girlfriend. However, when she asks what hers is, he won't tell her. So she calls him, it's "Wasting My Time" and they get into an argument. I cannot find this ANYWHERE online. I swear I didn't dream it up. If anyone could actually confirm that this exists (preferably with a link to a source), I'd really appreciate it.

[@zachlowe5096]

You might disagree with me on this but I saw Falling in Reverse on Disturbed’s Take Back Your Life Tour in Greenville and with everything that Radke has done and said I wasn’t expecting anything good but I was blown away by their performance and it surprised me. I’m not even a huge fan of them but I was impressed by their performance (Disturbed was also phenomenal and I will cherish that experience forever)

I don't even know what kind of playlist is on at that store because after Linkin Park, it went to an 80s pop song? I mean, I'm not complaining. I just have questions.

[@ZeroTagart]

I can agree with this mostly. Puddle of Mudd had 2 or 3 good songs across all their albums AJR, Falling in Reverse, 30 secs, Hinder Maroon 5, Spin Docs, 6 Feet all did nothing personally for me I was a pretty big Default fan (had gnarly bass lines in some of their songs)(from a bass player) But I can respect this list. Keep rocking

[@ASLB247]

I freaking called Blurry being in this, because…I mean, it’s the ONE puddle of mudd song they got right and the only one I can enjoy…outside of “She Hates me” ironically. Hey! Nice to see an AJR song get some representation. I still argue Pitchfork kids is the best they’ve done, and they have their occasional moment, but it’s at least nice to hear some credit given. Maroon 5 and 30STM being on here really did kinda make me sad, as they do have more great stuff like “From Yesterday” and “Wake-Up Call”. I know we joke about Six Feet Under and Chris Barnes’ Cookie Monster vocals, but it’s more sad to see the frontman responsible for cannibal corpse’s early work become a punching bag. And for those complaining about his vocals on TNT, he sounds even worse now with Nightmares of the EEEEEE-composed. Listening to that made me appreciate the TNT cover more. I said before that I don’t hate FIR as much as I should, as there are some moments where I’m like “okay, this is listenable”. Don’t get me wrong, they have their dogs, and Ronnie Radke…is Ronnie Radke, but I couldn’t bring myself to hate it compared to its Trashcore contemporaries. Having said that…yeah, popular monster works. It’s easily the band at its best to be honest. And lastly, I think the reason people don’t immediately bring up default when talking about the most generic band is….well they’re so generic I’m pretty sure most people never heard of them.

[@jackaweplushpro]

When I heard Popular Monster for the first time while I was listening to a recommended rock playlist, I did not know that it was a Falling In Reverse song, simply because you can listen to it and actually feel good while doing so.

[@wendyhamm9722]

Coming from Massachusetts, the home of Godsmack they had so much more than I Stand Alone. Granted it was over-played.

[@iBolt07]

I'll even defend the newest AJR album on the whole. There was actually a tangible emotional arc across it. Can't defend the other guilty pleasures I have from the band though! Default... yeah that's a guilty pleasure. Count On Me is on my 50 favorite songs of all time

But I can't help but love this song, he sounds good on it so does YUNGBLUD, the lyrics are really good (for MGK at least) and Travis's drumming is amazing as always.

You completely missed the mark on Godsmack. I’m not even a huge fan, but I immediately thought “they don’t belong here”. I scroll down to the comments and see post after post either says “Godsmack rocks” or “you should have picked X song for Godsmack”. And that’s because they have a lot of good songs. Even if they’re not your taste, to act like they only had 1 good song is just crazy.

[@amaryllis604]

Their last albums are boring, but they are not a bad band by any means

[@RobotnikEggman]

Godsmack isn't a bad band, I don't think their later material being less interesting makes them bad. By that logic a band like Boston is also bad since they only have two (Debatably three) good albums while the rest range from mediocre to really bad. (Corporate America and Life, Love, and Hope are worse than anything Godsmack ever released) And of all the songs, I Stand Alone is easily one of the most generic and bland songs they've ever made. I don't think it's a bad song by any means, But in comparison to Awake, Trippin', Spiral, Mistakes, Bad Magick, Immune, Now Or Never, Straight Out Of Line, Saints And Sinners, or really just any song off of those first three albums, It's whatever. As for Puddle Of Mudd they're one of those bands that I've heard a ton of stuff from since my friend likes to blast their music in his videos, And I genuinely can name only one song that I outright disliked and that was Spaceship with its godawful lyrics. (I grew up with She Hates Me so I can't hate it) I haven't heard any of the albums in full besides the Galvania one (And maybe the Stuck EP), But of the ones I recognize I think Life On Display is the best. My friend requested me to use both Think and Already Gone from that album and I thought those songs were surprisingly good. Time Flies is also another good one. Legit if that and Come Clean were the only albums I don't think people would hate them as much. They aren't bad at all. It's just Wes himself is insane and easy to make fun of. As for the rest I don't like any of them, Default has the one song I know and it's decent, But Hinder is just bad.

[@laurisaarinen1126]

Blurry is always first on my mind with this topic. It kinda sounds like an Incubus or Foo Fighters song to me and it’s gorgeous. Maroon 5 had more good ones on their debut, especially Harder To Breathe. That was the first song i heard from them and for a while i thought the band seemed promising… 30 Seconds To Mars i think had even a couple of good albums when they started, when Jared was also a great actor. Maybe the biggest downfall out of all these bands.

[@ursulap.6722]

@laurisaarinen1126 I actually didn't know "Blurry" was a Puddle of Mudd song until I saw this video. It was never a huge favorite of mine or anything, but I liked it.

[@awesomepigthecapedcrusader663]

I think AJR is wildly misunderstood and unfairly judged. The albums and songs they put out this decade (OK Orchestra and The Maybe Man) are fairly listenable, they’re mainly for musical theater lovers. But nevertheless, they have so much potential and definitely deserve an unbiased listen. Personally the outro to “The Maybe Man” changed my mind on the band.

[@amaryllis604]

“Ronald McDonald” and “Grocery Core” DUDE! You are HILARIOUS!! LMAO!!

[@meghanbeverly837]

Godsmack has gotten over 25 years out of writing essentially the same album every cycle. And I get a kick out of Ronnie Radke… because it’s hard to look away from a train wreck 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@TheRockSocietyReviews]

Jared Leto in the studio

[@genityishere6968]

I don’t dislike Thirty Seconds to Mars nor Godsmack (especially not early stuff), but I completely understand why they are here. As for me, idk would I say "good" but more like "better than most," but "I've Got Your Back" by Attila is like their most listenable song; It's like the ONLY song from them where they don’t swear, the song is less tryhard when compared to other tracks, and Chris sounds a bit better than usual there (if barely).

[@patrickstar6247]

Great video/list I do defend Default for having a few more songs that i think are good imo. I kept waiting to see if Theory would pop up in here 😅 Also fun fact: Defaults Wasting My Time didn’t hit #1 on radio at that time because what was #1??? Blurry 👀.

[@hpb714]

Sputnikmusic gave One Thing Remains a perfect rating which is kinda insane

[@mylsyl]

staind are known for 2 good songs 'its been awhile' and 'intro'

[@TheBattlesword]

Maroon 5 was the first band I was ever confused at everyone liking, and I was 5 when they got big. Seriously, though; am I the only one who felt "She Will Be Loved" sounded identical to another song from the time, "Here I Am" by Bryan Adams (something way more up my alley since pre-Shrek Dreamworks was the shit)?

[@tiffanyhowarth6703]

I've always hated them, too.

[@ursulap.6722]

@TheBattlesword Maroon 5 is like, the Thin Mints of music to me. Much like Thin Mints, everyone around me loves them for reasons I do not understand and I think they're foul and almost completely intolerable.

[@JacksonOwex]

2:47 Bad covers, what are you talking about?! When I need a good laugh, and I mean a GOOOOOOOOOOD laugh, that cover of... was it About a Girl?... is a SUREFIRE way to get one! If you are one of the few that hasn't seen it yet, be warned, you WILL laugh, cry, hurt(bad), then hurt(good, kind of, from laughing so hard) and then hopefully you don't pass out from laughing too hard!

[@TeryJones]

9:36 - Oh yeah this fucking song, still enjoy it all these years later it just makes me wanna go on a freakin' Clash of the Titans calibur adventure slaying fantastical monsters with my barbarian blade LET'S GO! XDXDXDXDXDXD

[@InsertCleverNameHere0]

I've said for a long time that This Love is the only good song Maroon 5 ever made. I love the more organic and immediately earworm-y beat on that song. It's just a good pop rock song.

[@drokus]

very much agree with blurry being on the list. love that song. sad to see godsmack on this list since, imo, their first three albums were good. godsmack's first album is one of my favorites. oh how the mighty have fallen :(

[@krisherdown]

The stark contrast between Songs About Jane and everything after for Maroon 5. I still love that album - "Harder to Breathe" would've been my pick for this video - but nothing after that holds up.

[@OH_MY_DOGGG]

Blurry predates come clean and even predates that iteration of puddle of mudd. But every version has wes in it notwithstanding

[@I-NEED-TO-FEEL-YOU]

Yep, Electron Moon. The first iteration of Puddle Of Mudd showed a lot of potential.

[@kcjc]

It’s been a pretty disappointing experience watching 30 Seconds to Mars turn into a husk. But at least we still have those first three albums (highly recommend their self titled, solid songs and Bob Ezrin production. Gets overlooked a lot)

[@lollirotzombie3805]

Give me "Harder to Breathe" before anything else. Of course "I Stand Alone" stood out. I'll still take anything else prior. FUCK "LIPS OF AN ANGEL" AND EVERYONE THAT REQUESTS IT. I could say "Fuck Ronnie" just like everyone else. He has kind of shit on us, really, (Midwestern here, heeeyy!) But let's hope it's for the better. (Check out his Rockfest rant, and his rant at The Armory).

[@magnoliasegun4994]

For the Maroon 5 one I would’ve chosen Sunday morning. For me it is 100 times better soulful and fun!

[@Kolaguy7]

shocked to see spin doctors on here i’ve always thought two princes was a great song

[@Joelster-og4pf]

@Rocked, it’s fair to say “This Love” is one of their, if not the best M5 song. The album that it comes from, Songs About Jane, does have a lot of great bangers on it though. Sunday Morning, Harder To Breathe, The Sun..

[@neighslayer768]

I'd say that entire 1st album from 30 Seconds to Mars is a good album by a bad band. I heard The Kill and Beautiful Lie first. Then Capricorn showed up on the Music Choice channel (I'm old) and I couldn't believe it was the same band. Such a shame they ditched that EDM/Prog/Space Rock vibe.

[@metalmayhem9640]

I would put “Two Princes” by Spin Doctors

[@Zuub470]

Saw 30 Seconds to Mars live a few years ago and they were still mediocre, but their stage presence was good and the tickets were free. The best part though was finding out about K.Flay.

[@IloveKurtCobain-z5k]

Love the Robert Smith pic. I met him 2x and have seen the Cure 10x

[@RockedNet]

TY! I took that photo myself at Riot Fest.

[@IloveKurtCobain-z5k]

@@RockedNet I know you're a photographer. The Cure has been the mainstay thru the 80s, 90's 2000's and I just saw them 2x again. They still put on 3 hour shows and Robert is like 65 now. He was so nice to me. I met his wife Mary too at the Bloodflowers tour. I gave her roses. I like all music except Country and The Cure are my favorite.
