Maroon 5 has released a brand new single entitled ‘Memories’. It dropped last week and currently serves as a stand alone single and is the much anticipated follow up song since the band’s smash-hit 2018 collaboration with Cardi-BGirls Like You.’

The surprise release last September was announced when the band posted the artwork and the release date on Twitter and Facebook, but gave no hint of what might be coming.

 Adam Levine took to Twitter saying that the meaning behind the song is “for anyone who has ever experienced loss.

The lyrics include, “Here’s to the ones that we got/ Cheers to the wish you were here, but you’re not/ ‘Cause the drinks bring back all the memories of everything we’ve been through/ Toast to ones here today.

Memories has shot to the No.1 spot on the iTunes singles chart in the US.

The single is now available on all major streaming platforms.
