[@chemistry0wns]

one of best songs , which existing

[@SamLeChiq]

THIS IS NOT PLAYBACK> EVERYONE IS PLAYING LIVE. This is what "real" musicians sound like live. GREAT!

[@gameszerax5636]

Technically they are using the instrumental version of This Love, the only live thing is Adam Levine's voice

[@wakeffx]

yessssssssssss@@gameszerax5636

[@kirstyt182]

I love this song:)

[@OneMinuteOfMe]

yeah. it's not playback, guys! Try to watch other live performances of Maroon 5 and you'll maybe understand that it's a just really strong Adam's voice, great playing of band and nothing more)

[@charlsshadowsvelarde1583]

but she will be love is playback

[@alisia413]

omg,I love them so

[@LasVegas0812]

perfect live performance.

[@MrBrightside781]

man they are so good live.

[@Itsrichzich]

simply divine.

[@camilobangueroviveros8561]

very good

[@DCGGT2000]

these guys are good live,

[@Shaglaki]

my thoughts exactly.

[@Osmanjga91]

VERY GOOD..... ARRIBA MAROON 5 ME GUSTARÍA QUE SIGUIERAN SACANDO MÁS CANCIONES..... pero es el mejor grupo de la epoco en el estilo Soul.... a mi gusto..

[@JCJ9114]

Sorry guys. I have a friend who played on TOTP as well, and they had to BEG to play live at the show, and as you can hear, maroon 5 is also play backing. For example, the sound of the drums is changing exactly like it's on the cd, which is recorded in seperate pieces, with seperate drumset, while there's only 1 drumset on this stage. So maroon 5 is play backing here, but it's not there fault.

[@cnote80906]

Listen guys. The way the song is performed on the cd is extremly difficult to perform live. All he did was just go down an octive towards the end because you run out of breath. He was great. In fact im glad he did it this way, use your own voice~~

[@The12aerosmith]

@EthMan09 ok let me be short and simple: the instruments are "dub tracked" if thats what you called..Adam levine's vocals are the only live thing about this, the quality of the insrtuments doesnt match the sound of a live performance. Not to say they arent fantastic musicians, theyre incredible

[@chemistry0wns]

omg exists a mp3 version of this version?

[@xdbuix]

live just means its played in person. theyre all playing in person i believe, unless theyre faking it to a track which i highly doubt they are. this is one of the best live bands out there.

[@The12aerosmith]

@EthMan09 do you see the flute? the other guitars? its playback..which is ok i was just making the observation theyre my favorite band..they just should have played live, it sounds better live

[@xdbuix]

big bang- this love

[@SamLeChiq]

First off- there are NO pre-recorded background Vocals- lead vocals only- secondly- the drummer is playing LIVE- the singer is too...why would any of you think that the other musicians are playing to a prerecorded music.? These are Great musicians- they don't need to nor have i ever seen them play- or lip-sync

[@casualsenpaitv]

@The12aerosmith okay, so lemme get this straight. You just mean instruments right? Playback is vocal tracks, instruments is dub track. And just because there is a dub track doesn't mean the the instrument players are miming, (not saying that you meant that, but making my point) So, even if there are dub tracks, the people that are on stage most likely are actually playing unless the things I've heard about TOTP are true(too cheap to have all proper equipment).

[@casualsenpaitv]

@The12aerosmith this is so blantantly NOT playback, this sounds pretty different from the album version, so I don't know what your problem is. Stop hatin!

[@MCB400100]

@lumyingluo The original one is with a bit more power, but i have to admit theyr not bad here

[@SamLeChiq]

I know Top Of the Pops buddy...but not all bands play pre-recorded. and these guys aren't. Period!

[@Tacadoband]

this is playback instrumental with Adam singing live.

[@backthisway]

@ikkke88 instruments are playback .. voice is live

[@RocknRage]

best live bands out there??????!!! ur kidding. their music is the easiest to learn ever. they write songs. the lyrics r it! everything else can be learned by u or me. we culd write their music. most of the intro is just a sample anyways

[@xslimkrnboix]

voice is diff frm mv

[@TheAAMJR]

4 people forgot to turn on speakers

[@gitaarfraek]

where is his hear

[@EvolutionRider]

ahaha... just listen to his voice live.. and on an album... on an album it sounds so much better because of the studio effects... i dont say that they are bad because i got the album songs about jane myself;) but live it just doesnt sounds pretty sorry mate

[@ErwinBass]

The music is definatly Playback, the singing is not because of the voice pitching in some parts :)

[@lolbobsquarepants]

why is top of the pops always playback?

[@casualsenpaitv]

@The12aerosmith you'd think the people running TOTP would invest in proper equipment, I mean really.. have bands play as their primary "thing" and not have the proper equipment to do so properly.

[@NickBurbeyGuitar]

Well, they're at least sampling the wahwah 16th note triplet part that starts at the 2nd verse. Not there's anything wrong with that.. just saying.

[@casualsenpaitv]

Who cares if it's play back or not? This clearly isn't playback, but a lot of bands that perform on TOTP use playback, not quite sure why

[@glrf]

Just Adam is singing live..the rest isn't doing anything live.

[@efTSjakie]

Lol i'm listening idiot :S , i like this ALOT more then the orginal, sounds weird but true for me.

[@TunstallWH]

I think the Band is Playbacked

[@tranling]

his range is high i admit but definately not that high probably cuz u haven't listen to the korean live version of the song yet so u dun know that this song is not that high range

[@tranling]

eventhough this sis really good and i love maroon 5 and all but his singing lacks passion i have watched the korean version that the korean boyband big bang sing , the guy really knows how to work the audience and really sing wif passion and i like that version much better this is just my opinion , dun kill me

[@EvaGreenT]

do you here his range? every single song is that high... give him a break when you sing at the peak of your range everyday almost every song you have to compromise something.

[@azohopar]

dosent take a genius to tell that theyre nott really playing =P

[@The12aerosmith]

this is so blatantly playback, idk why they did this though, they're just as good as live as in the album

[@murkaz]

playback!! crap!!!!!

[@EvolutionRider]

maroon 5 sucks in every live performance its a shame
