Maroon 5 is set for another giant year in 2020, hitting arenas and stadiums across the country on a summer tour with Meghan Trainor, and the forecast is calling for more new music. Adam Levine and company gave us our first preview of their upcoming LP in September with “Memories,” and anticipation has been mounting ever since.

Before we unwrap something new from the GRAMMY-winning band, let’s take a look back at their biggest songs of all time. The band has landed at number one 4 times on the Billboard Hot 100 since their debut in 2002, keeping some songs on the chart for a full year. Through all the mohawks, cornrows, and shirtless Super Bowl moments, their music remains infectious and inescapable, and the proof is in the numbers.

These are the 9 biggest Maroon 5 songs of all time.

9 This Love

From 2002’s Songs About Jane, “This Love” spent 43 weeks on the chart, peaking at number 5 in April of 2004. Punishing piano makes way for a sunshine chorus, on one of the band’s first earworms.

8 Animals

From 2015’s V, “Animals” spent 33 weeks on the chart, peaking at number 3 in November of 2014. The creeptastic video features Levine’s wife Behati Prinsloo.

7 Memories

The latest from the band has spent 25 weeks on the chart, landing at number 2 in January of this year. The song is about loss, and dedicated to the band’s manager, who passed away in 2017.
