Yes, I’m very happy. ZBB’s new album is absolutely fantastic. I have the deluxe version with bonus and live songs. Well worth the extra money. And it’s well worth the money to catch these guys live too. Unfortunately I haven’t yet, but I’ve watched streamed concerts online. Not the same as being there, but they are still amazing.
It’s Maroon 5, not Moroon 5. Just sayin.’
@Zuckerberg hahahahahahaha good catch!
wow 142,00 for maroon 5 thats bad compared to thier last album its a pretty good cd it will prob. sell less than a million a shame music sales are down
is maroon 5 even popular anymore?
Yes. They play them all day every day on the radio. “I am in Misery” listening to their song all the time.
Popular amount gays and teen girls. Basically anyone without taste.
