Everyday People - Maroon 5 Sly and the Family Stone video free download
During recording times of It Won't Be Soon Before Long as usual Maroon 5 filled time collaborating to various projects, one of them being "Different Strokes for Different Folks" compilation by legendary Sly and the Family Stone. In a critics' words, "You may only know "Everyday People" from Toyota commercials, or recognize it from Arrested Development's "People Everyday," but Maroon 5 bring new life to this rock classic. The song's message of tolerance and equality still resonates today." I couldn't agree more. Bless history of music, and the worshipping attitude Maroon have towards eternal classics. I love when they get completly soul, like here. Adam's voice just gets perfect becoming soul influenced, just because his heart stays exactly there where the deepest things are.
Enjoy.
That whole record is amazing, and with genius people involved.
Enjoy. With Lyrics.

this is a good band and my man has a wicked voice, and i give them props for approaching this song in an original way... but i can't really dig it. for me, the meaning of the song was lost, drowned out by overproduction. i would have liked to see them do this song in a more broken down arrangement, with an acoustic drum kit! just my opinion! but again i am pumped that they chose to interprate this classic all the same15 years ago

Glad you like it. It's actually one of my fav covers by M5. You can feel how much lyrics are felt when they are sung. Which matters, you know. Cool that you do dance classes. Dance is a wonderful thing :)15 years ago

You have your opinions, we have ours. Namely original=untoucheable; This one= WAY worthy. I saw your page though. I guess your tastes differ a bit from ours anyway. Definitely from Zaira's (the video page holder). Which explaines a lot. Anyway, no pun intended. You don't like this, fine. We ADORE it instead.15 years ago

Adam's voice is a God given gift. Sure the original version is wonderful, but to say this can't holde a candle to it is painfully wrong.16 years ago

Sly & the Family is a legendary combo, so I can't say what you say about the original version is not correct. But I also love this one, Adoring Adam's voiice, to me any he breathes out in form of note hits my inner core, and make it work always. So for me it holds not merely one, but one million candles anyway. This said and done, I discovered better Sly THANX to Maroon. and this was a priceless, rewarding experience I keep thankin them for. ;) Take care :)16 years ago
Hoodoo You Love?
I definitely LOVE the Sly & The Family Stone tribute album, definitely a great idea...but this version doesn't HOLD A CANDLE to the original by Sly and the Family Stone..that one is the best!16 years ago
