No violence here.

A bit of very mild innuendo; nothing explicit.
Language:
Nothing offensive.

These songs just keep going through my head...
WARNING: DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM IF YOU DO NOT WANT VERY CATCHY TUNES STUCK IN YOUR HEAD!If you have decided to ignore the warning, you have made a good choice. Maroon 5's unique style is very effective in the effect that the musicians are trying to create. The songs go from very sad, to normal, to happy, then to angry. I would recomend this album to anyone who is tired of the same thing over and over again.

coolness... also dark
This is quite dark for a pop-rock album. It has some pretty mysterious, dark-sounding melodies in some of the songs (Harder to Breathe and This Love in particular) It's pretty tame though; there's one bad word in Harder to Breathe; that's the worst of this album. Other songs do contain innuendo but nothing so bad that kids absolutely can't hear it.

Yum,
Man, you guys need to open your eyes. Adam Levine even says it himself, this is an extremely sexual album. But as you can see from the kids' reviews, it's not obvious to anyone who isn't ready to recognise it. So I'd say that it is very appropriate, as in it won't "corrupt" your child.
I love Maroon 5. End of story.

It was ok
It was ok. I liked it. I think Makes Me Wonder is in here and they use the f word but you can't really hear or understand it. It's sort of mumbled.

Best Pop CD Ever!
I hate pop, with the exception of Maroon 5. This album is squeaky-clean, and the only sexuality is some ballads about relationships that didn't work out. (And the cover art.) This album is great for any age, especially if the child likes Kidz Bop. ("This Love" was featured on Kidz Bop 6 and the commercial for it, and "She Will Be Loved" was featured on Kidz Bop 7.) Imagine how refreshing it will be for the kids to find out that there IS world outside of their Mickey Mouse boombox, playing the tunes of kids doing covers of mainstream hits. Just find out what your missing, and buy the CD!
