It was released in June 2002 and by the end of 2004 it had reached the top 10 of the Billboard 200 charts.
Songs about Jane had also eventually topped the UK and Australian album charts while "Harder to Breathe" had made the singles charts in the UK, Australia and New Zealand.

For me, Maroon 5's Songs About Jane is packed with enjoyable R&B-infused radio-friendly tunes but the song that really gets me is the broody ballad She Will Be Loved.
A too-romantic song that stands out amidst the playful songs about the woes of love that make up the rest of the CD, there is an unrestrained melancholy in She Will Be Loved that makes it very different from the other songs in this CD.
As well-crafted as the songs on Songs About Jane are, they become very painful to listen to once radio gets hold of them and plays them to death.

The song is a mix of biting guitar licks and popping rhythms, driven mostly by drummer Ryan Dusick.
What's most unfortunate about this record is that the band truly sounds different, but they fall into the same trap that oh so many bands have fallen into of late.
The ONLY cool part of this song is the breakdown with the horns, and even that doesn't last long enough.

Admittedly this song didn't catch my attention too much, but then "She Will Be Loved" was soon released and I loved it.
Looking at my CD collection, "Songs About Jane" looks slightly out of place amongst the rest of the bands I usually listen to, but something about this album just really appeals to me. It's full of sweet love songs that'll put a smile on your face, as well...
Apparently, the whole album is about vocalist Adam Levine's relationship with his girlfriend and muse, Jane, and to appreciate the songs you do have to make the effort to listen to all the words.

 Maroon 5 - Songs About Jane CD Review
You might have heard their pop/rock hit song “Harder to Breathe.” I’ll admit that I thought the song was just a novelty hit and wrote the band off as a possible one-hit wonder back in 2003 and never went out of my way to see what else Maroon 5 had to offer.
The result is a disc full of songs that are all potential radio hits, which is going to give this album enough legs to keeping selling strong into 2005.
The Stevie Wonder keyboard sound you have heard a million times in the song “Superstitious” is used on many of the tunes on Songs About Jane.

 Maroon 5 : Songs About Jane - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
Maroon 5 was born and their debut album, Songs About Jane, illustrates an impressive rebirth.
It's groovy in spots, offering bluesy funk on "Shiver" and a catchy, soulful disposition on "Harder to Breathe." "Must Get Out" slows things down with its dreamy lyrical story, and Levine is a vocal dead ringer for Men at Work's Colin Hay.
Songs About Jane is love-drunk on what makes Maroon 5 tick as a band.

The result was Maroon 5 and their major label debut ‘Songs About Jane’.
Written whilst Levine was experiencing relationship difficulties with his girlfriend (you’ve guessed it, Jane), the album is an eclectic mix of rock, funk, punk r&b and hip-hop.
Spanning 12 tracks ‘Songs About Jane’ could be one of the most inspiring debut albums in recent years.

On Songs About Jane, one can almost hear Stevie Wonder's beaded dreadlocks clattering in time to their deep, funky grooves.
As the album starts with the first flush of new love, you will notice that the lyrics start to become a bit bitter towards the end of the album, which is about the end of a relationship.
Songs About Jane mixes RandB melodies with rock backing tracks which they pull off well especially songs like Sweetest Goodbye and Not Coming Home.

 Nights And Weekends - Songs About Jane Review
The song’s catchy groove sets the stage for the entire danceable album.
Songs About Jane is strong and seductive, with funky undertones.
While I’ll admit that there are a few songs that sound just a little bit Justin-Timberlake-y at times, there are others that are loungey-funky, like a 70's TV theme song (especially “Sunday Morning,” which is one of my favorites).

"Secret is one of my favorite songs on the CD with a cool laid back vibe that reminds me of a cocktail bar somewhere back in the 50's where everyone wore Capone hats, sipped whiskey and smoked cigars while some guy in a tux played the piano and sang to the women in the room.
"Shiver" and "The Sun" are awsome songs, in fact the whole CD is a great compliment of itself and for the most part should be listened to from start to finish to get the full effect.
What is great is I loved most of the songs, while on most other CD's I'll just like 1 or 2 songs.

Songs About Jane-this album is kicking asses all over the planet.

 Splendid Magazine reviews Maroon 5: Songs About Jane
It particularly shines on the sobering "She Will Be Loved" -- another song that's hurt by a catchy but bland chorus reminiscent of Matchbox 20.
Musically, the distinction between the verses and chorus sounds artificial; Levine slightly raises his voice to a new key, which makes the refrain sound like it was written for a different song.
As it is, Songs About Jane's over-danceable choruses drown the album in its own impersonal commercial gloss.

The bit of mild sexual innuendo on SONGS ABOUT JANE will fly right over the heads of kids who aren't ready to hear it.
There's nothing ground-breaking on Maroon 5's SONGS ABOUT JANE, but excellent vocal performances and a terrific rhythm section carry the day.
The songs are formulaic with catchy hook lines, making liberal use of boy-band-style vocal harmonies and some arrangements that may come off as feeling a little too predictable.

Though on first listen it may be tempting to describe Maroon 5 as simply an American Jamiroquai with more developed songwriting skills, the comparison really only scratches the surface of the quintet's diverse sound.
Throughout SONGS ABOUT JANE, leader Adam Levine and his band deftly combine a distinctive old school R&B/disco/electro vibe with the best elements of chart-topping melancholy popsters like Train, Matchbox 20, and the Dave Matthews band.
The results of the sessions appeared on the band's 2002 release, Songs About Jane, which spawned the transatlantic hit singles "Harder To Breathe", "This Love" and "She Will Be Loved", and was supported by tours opening for

Like a painting of a beautiful woman `Songs About Jane' evokes an obsession, feeling, and pure desperation mixed with love and loss.
