Overexposed is the fourth studio album by the American pop rock band Maroon 5. The album was recorded between 2011 and 2012 and was driven after the moderate success of their third album Hands All Over (2010) and later by the enormous success of re-release single "Moves like Jagger". The album was released on June 26, 2012 in the United States by A&M/Octone Records. The band worked with different producers, such as Max Martin, who serves as the album's executive producer, Ryan Tedder, Shellback and Benny Blanco. Levine's usual co-writer and lead guitarist James Valentine only has four credits on the album. The band has said that it is their poppiest album, featuring mostly pop oriented tracks, combined with pop rock, dance-pop disco and reggae sounds.

The accompanying artwork, created by LA artist Young & Sick, is a colourful collage of illustrations seemingly inspired by the likes of Picasso and a range of modern cartoonists. Its title is a smirking allusion to Levine's ubiquity, while its sound is a reflection of how the group wishes to retain the large audience they won once again with "Moves Like Jagger". The album's lead single "Payphone", featuring rapper Wiz Khalifa, produced by Shellback and Benny Blanco, was released and performed on The Voice on April 16, 2012. The song was a success, reaching number two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, as well as on the ARIA Charts, while it topped the UK Singles Chart, Canadian Hot 100 and Italian Singles Chart. A second single "One More Night" was released on June 19, 2012. The song has topped the Billboard Hot 100 for nine weeks, becoming their longest Hot 100 reign.

The album received a mixed reception from music critics. Some critics praised the album, calling it their strongest album. However, many criticized the direction that the band decided to take, calling it a failed tentative to become mainstream and noting that the other members have small roles on the album. It debuted at number 2 on the UK Albums Chart, selling 38,000 copies, and on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling 222,000 copies. Total worldwide sales of the album by the end of 2012 stood at 2.2 million copies.[2] To promote the album, the band started the "Overexposed Tour" with shows in South America. Through September and October, they visited East Asia and they also played two shows in Australia during October, 2012.

Background and development[edit]

After the moderate impact on the charts from Hands All Over (2010), the band guitarist James Valentine expressed some frustration in its lackluster sales and said that a new album may be coming sooner than was originally planned.[3]

Valentine further commented:

"It would be nice to start working on another record next year". "I think with the last two records, it's been a little bit unbalanced, in that we had so much success and there was so much of the world to cover that our studio/road balance was a little off... In a perfect world we'd tour for six months and maybe record for six months, but that's not the way it works. But the whole point is to make more music, and if anything you can spend too much time out there."[3]

Valentine also said that Maroon 5 has "tons of material" available, including holdovers from the Mutt Lange-co-produced "Hands All Over" and songs the quintet has written since then. "I think everybody's been pretty busy compiling ideas for the next one," he says. "With technology and the recording capacity we have on our laptops, we can be a little more prolific while we're [touring]. We've never been able to do that before. I think we could go in and make a record today and have a pretty solid album."[3]

After the moderate success of the singles "Give a Little More" and "Never Gonna Leave This Bed", the band recorded a new track, called "Moves Like Jagger", which is a collaboration with Christina Aguilera and released it as a single on June 21, 2011.[4] The single achieved success worldwide, topping the Billboard Hot 100 for four weeks, becoming the band's second number-one single in the United States.[5][6] "'Jagger' saved us," Levine acknowledged at Conway. "It totally revived the band."[7]

In an interview for Mike Wood from Los Angeles Times, Levine explained what went wrong on "Hands All Over: "I don't think we knew what kind of record we were making." "It was such a hodgepodge — all these disparate ideas and songs that didn't make any sense together." "We were in this idyllic paradise, which is a horrible place to make a record." "Switzerland's neutrality is very famous, and I feel like that neutrality infected Maroon 5's third album."[7] However, according to Nielsen SoundScan, the album has sold 1.1 million copies, after the "Moves Like Jagger" release.[7]

Recording and production[edit]

Speaking about the album, James Valentine revealed:

"'Moves Like Jagger' was the first time we ever worked with an outside writer, so we decided to try it some more on this record." "At this point in our career I think it was a good thing to completely mix up our process and it yielded good results, as well as a more collaborative spirit within the band. We wanted to make something that sounded contemporary with the elements of a lot of early eras of pop music. This is our most 'pop' record ever and we weren’t shy about really going for it."[8]

After the success of "Moves Like Jagger", the band recorded the album in Los Angeles, CA over 2011.[1] They began writing and recording the album during their most recent world tour and, according to their website, the resulting collection is "chock-full of undeniable, anthemic melodies".[1] The album was executive produced by Max Martin with additional tracks produced by Benny Blanco and Ryan Tedder.[1][9] The band's official website described the album as "a rich, pop-infused collection featuring 10 new tracks."[1]

The lead singer of the band, Adam Levine, also commented about the album:

"Overexposed is definitely our most diverse and poppiest album yet. We had a great time recording it. I can't wait for our fans to hear the record, as well as hitting the road to play it live for everyone later this year."[1]

On March 22, 2012, the band posted a video on YouTube featuring numerous scenes from the band on the studio, recording the album.[10] In another interview for Rolling Stone, Levine revealed that is their most dance-driven album ever, commenting: "It's very much an old-fashioned disco tune." "I have a love/hate relationship with it – but mostly I love it."[11] Ryan Tedder, one of the producers, commented: "I think the sound of the songs [on 'Overexposed'] is very fresh; it's gonna win over a lot of kids. But maintaining that interest — that's the hardest thing in the world."[7]

Theme and composition[edit]

According to the band's official website, the album is "a chock-full collection of undeniable, anthemic melodies."[1] The album's first track "One More Night" was described as "irresistible" and a "sexy reggae jam,"[11] having a blend of pop, rock and reggae.[12] Lyrically, it talks about not getting along with or being able to untangle himself from his love interest. Levine is hoping he only stays with her just "one more night".[12] The second track is the lead single "Payphone (featuring Wiz Khalifa)", which was described as "emphatic."[1] Lyrically, it explores the way a relationship used to be and the way they no longer are.[13] Musically, it is a mid-tempo ballad, with hip hop influence.[14] The third track "Daylight" is a soft rock song,[15] and it was described as a "Coldplay-ish track, which have choruses so thickly produced that the only physical instrument you can reliably pick out is Levine's larynx."[16] The intro is the same as the Backstreet Boys' Just Want You To Know.[17] Lyrically, Levine is the lover who, for some reason, has to creep away in the morning. "In the daylight/ We'll be on our own/ But tonight I need to hold you so close," he sings.[18] "Lucky Strike" is a driving guitar,[19] funk song,[16] following the same bells-and-whistles template as 'Moves Like Jagger'."[20] In "The Man Who Never Lied," Levine confesses, "Sometimes honesty is the worst policy."[21] "Love Somebody", produced by Ryan Tedder, talks about Levine "feeling so hollow"[16] with a "Sly Stone-meets-Eurythmics synth hook.[21]

The funk-laden[20] "Ladykiller" features a guitar solo[22] and an elastic funk groove, combined with Adam Levine's blue-eyed soul vocal and pleasing echoes of Hall & Oates.[23] It was inspired by the work of American recording artist Michael Jackson, as noted by BBC Music and Virgin Media.[22][24] Its cheese-wah guitar was compared to those of Bon Jovi, while in the lyrics, Levine begs his girl to come back to him from her new boyfriend.[8] "Fortune Teller" has an pop tempo piano beat, that meshes with the song to provide a mix of emotions. The song gives a sort of "I want you, but I can't decide for you" feel with "I don't know what to tell you/ I'm not a fortune teller.[15] "Sad" is a piano ballad[15] where he belts his regret for being selfish. "And I confess that I'm only holding on by a thin, thin thread, I'm so sad," he sings. "According to Artist Direct's Rick Florino it "echoes Elton John"[19] The tenth track "Tickets" features twisting production, comes through as a tight, techno-influenced pop song.[15] It was compared to Maroon 5's last effort "Give a Little More"[15] and it talks about someone being a snob.[16] "Doin' Dirt" is a high-energy, beat-driven song,[15] also classified as "a revved, funky club cut".[11] Its verses talk about horndog rhapsodies, with lyrics such as: "I light you up when I get inside".[18] The final track "Beautiful Goodbye" was described as a "rhythmic ballad."[11] It's an acoustic ode that's bittersweet, yet ultimately positive.[15]

"Wasted Years," a song that was originally planned for their debut album, Songs About Jane, is featured as one of the bonus tracks on the deluxe edition. The song also features writing credits by Jesse Carmichael, who is currently on hiatus, and former drummer Ryan Dusick. The only previously available version of this song was a live performance at the Santa Barbara Bowl, released on the 2005 album Live – Friday the 13th. "Kiss", a cover of the Prince song, is also included on the deluxe edition and it stretches past the seven-minute mark and gives all of the players room to play.[19]

Release and promotion[edit]

Artwork[edit]

On April 10, 2012, the band debuted the cover art of the album, created by LA artist Young & Sick, on their official website.[1][25] The accompanying artwork doesn't feature any images of the group and is instead a colourful collage of illustrations seemingly inspired by the likes of Picasso and a range of modern cartoonists.[26] According to Natalie Finn from E! News, "the psychedelic Beatles-dipped-in-Cream cover is a where-do-you-look-first wink at the pop-music world, which is so crowded with egos and images these days that it becomes almost impossible to just focus on the music."[27] Becky Bain, of Idolator, didn't enjoy the cover, writing that "it is what an episode of The Simpsons looks like if you’re on acid."[28] Jessica Sager from "Pop Crush" wrote that "The bright colors and cartoon images are representative of the album’s themes."[29] The band also has announced that the album will be released on June 26, 2012.[1]

Singles[edit]

"Payphone" was released as the lead single on April 16, 2012, and features rapper Wiz Khalifa.[30] The song was described as "a disco-flavored dance-floor filler with a slick verse from Khalifa".[31] The song was released for purchase on iTunes on April 16, 2012, following the band's performance of the song on The Voice.[30] On the Billboard Hot 100, the song debuted at number three, with sales of 493,000 copies. It became the best debut sales week for a digital song by a group and also the eighth-best sales week overall.[32] It peaked at number one on the Canadian Hot 100, Italian Singles Chart and UK Singles Chart,[33] while it reached number two on the US Billboard Hot 100, New Zealand Singles Chart, Irish Singles Chart and Australian ARIA Charts.[34] In other countries, the song peaked inside the top ten.[34]

"One More Night" was released on June 19, 2012 as the album's second single.[35] On May 18, 2012, the band premiered the song at the Revel Casino and Hotel in Atlantic City, USA.[36] The song was written by Levine, Shellback, Max Martin and Savan Kotecha.[35] The music video premiered on June 25, 2012 on MTV at 7:53 pm EST.[37] The song debuted at number 42 on the Billboard Hot 100, while it debuted at number 27 on the Canadian Hot 100 chart.[38] The song has also been a success on the Australian Charts, reaching number 2 and topping the New Zealand Singles Chart and the South Korean Gaon International Chart.[39] The song spent nine weeks atop Billboard Hot 100.

"Daylight" has been confirmed as the third single from the album, with a video directed by Jonas Akerlund. The video features fans who talk about things they love and hate etc. and is almost 10 minutes long. The majority of the video has the band playing an instrumental version of the verses playing in the background. A second video titled "Daylight (Playing for Change)" premiered on January 18, 2013 and features musicians from around the world performing elements of the song as part of the Playing for Change project which aims to bring people together through music.[40]

"Love Somebody" is the fourth single. It was released to US Top 40 radio on May 14, 2013.[41] Its music video was filmed in January 2013.[42]

Critical reception[edit]

"Overexposed" has received mostly mixed reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 given to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 54, based on 11 reviews, which indicates "mixed or average reviews".[48] Rick Florino of Artist Direct gave the album 5 out of 5 stars, writing: "Overexposed exposes every facet of this versatile outfit more clearly than ever before, whether its funk, pop, or rock. At the end of the day, Maroon 5 made a classic record here that'll get you moving."[19] Rob Sheffield from Rolling Stone gave the album 3.5 out of 5 stars, writing that "it's their best album yet. Maroon 5 go all the way pop with heavyweights like Max Martin and Benny Blanco: It's top-shelf radio sucrose."[21] Joe DeAndra of Absolute Punk agreed, writing that the co-writers brought Maroon 5 to their creative peak and helped them construct their finest offering yet.[51] DeAndra further added: "While not every song is up to a 'Moves Like Jagger' or 'Payphone' standard hook-wise, the co-writers and producers never stopped breaking into new grounds for the band throughout the record. As a result, it's clear that overexposure is exactly what suits Maroon 5 best."[51] Stephen Thomas Erlewine from Allmusic rated the album 3 out of 5 stars, writing: "Electronic rhythms easily overshadow acoustic rhythms, with even the natural swing playing as somewhat sequenced; each song gets a brittle, multipurpose surface, as easily adaptable for adult contemporary radio as it is for the club. Hooks stab with a steely confidence but they just break the skin; they prick instead of pierce. It's the productions that count, not the songs."[49] Erlewine also commented: " They've bent with the times instead of attempting to have the fashion follow them, which may be a wise move after the general disregard paid to 'Hands All Over'."[49] Cameron Adams from Herald Sun wrote that "There's a handful of tracks written by the band themselves to provide relief from the wall-to-wall hooks. But then comes disco monsters that puts chart before art again. Because, really, that's Maroon 5's job."[17] Caroline Sullivan from The Guardian gave the album 3 out of 5 stars, commenting: "The hooklines and characteristic high-shine production are there, but don't quite replicate 2011 single Moves Like Jagger's blue-sky charm."[14] Matthew Horton wrote for Virgin Media that "Overexposed feels like one big build-up to the main attraction, and it hasn't got the pace to keep it up. The funny thing about Maroon 5's overexposure is we still barely recognise them. Maybe they need to show us a bit more."[24]

In a more mixed review, Adam Markovitz from Entertainment Weekly commented: "On much of the album, which never quite finds a balance between rock grit and dance-pop glitz, Maroon 5 barely sound like a band at all."[16] Robert Copsey from Digital Spy agreed, commenting: "As the album title suggests, leaves Maroon 5 dangerously close to committing pop's cardinal sin."[20] Allison Stewart from Washington Post commented: "Overexposed is a hit-seeking missile that doesn’t just slaughter Maroon 5’s reputation for sincerity, it festoons its corpse with glitter, hairspray and Hello Kitty stickers. It seems more like a collaboration between Swedish hitmakers and AutoTune than between Levine and members of his band, who apparently exist, but it’s a small price to pay.[50] Andy Gill from The Independent criticized "the over-reliance throughout on wordless 'whoah-oh-oh' hooks rather indicates both the sense of desperation, and the overall lack of imagination."[23] Fraser McAlpine from BBC Music stated: "Otherwise every passing second is a vocal battle against a declining attention span, like a clicked finger in the face, forever. Overexposed boasts cover art so kaleidoscopically brash and ugly it makes you grateful for the decline of vinyl."[22] James Reed from Boston Globe commented: "In search of the alchemy the band nailed on 'Moves Like Jagger', Maroon 5 turns out a handful of pale imitators. Even with various superstar producers on board, including Max Martin and Ryan Tedder, the album is stridently homogenous."[52] Simon Price from The Independent gave the album 2 out of 5 stars, stating: "Every song sounds as if it was custom made to play behind the montage of someone's 'journey' in a TV talent show. Another word for the colour 'maroon' is 'plum'. The sooner this bunch of plums fade back into obscurity, the better."[53]

Commercial performance[edit]

Overexposed debuted at number 2 on the Billboard 200, and again behind Living Things, with sales of 222,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan.[54] A little over 1,000 copies sold separates the two titles.[54] Living Things also kept the album from reaching number one in many other countries. Overexposed is the band's fourth studio album, and follows 2010's Hands All Over, which also peaked at number 2, selling 142,000 in its first week.[54] Overexposed's start marks Maroon 5's best sales week for an album since 2007's It Won't Be Soon Before Long debuted at number one with 429,000 copies.[54] In the second week, the album fell to number 4, with sales of 68,000 copies.[55] It felling out of top 10 in its seventh week, but the album rose to number 5, in its eight week, as the album benefits from Amazon MP3 sale priced for $3.99 on August 17, 2012.[56] It sold 988,000 copies in the US in 2012, the 11th best-selling album of the year.[57] As of May 2013, it has sold 1,335,000 copies in the US.[58]

In Canada, the album debuted at number 3 on the Canadian Albums Chart, selling 17,800 copies.[59] The album has sold 30,000 copies in Brazil, being certified Gold.[60] The album was certified Gold in Japan after selling 100,000+ copies.[61] The album debuted at number 2 on the UK Albums Chart, selling 38,000 copies, becoming their third British bestseller.[62] It was 3,000 copies behind of Linkin Park's Living Things, which debuted at number one with 41,000 copies.[62] The album sold 263,000 copies in 2012 in the UK.[63]
