Vox article February 4, 2019: Like Maroon 5’s best songs, Maroon 5’s 2019 Super Bowl halftime show was aggressively fine, with fleeting moments of slight glee. Maroon 5’s “Sugar” and “Moves Like Jagger” were highlights.
As much as many people may dislike Maroon 5, it’s undeniable that they’re more than capable of serving up catchy pop bops. The best of these are “Sugar” and “Moves Like Jagger,” the two songs that ended the halftime show.
“Sugar” in particular has a chorus that sounds as if it was created in a lab specifically to wriggle into your ears, invade your brain, and find its way into your throat to make you sing along. Similarly, “Moves Like Jagger” boasts a magic combination of beat and melody that coaxes you to whistle along in synchronicity.
Levine seemed to understand this, ramping up his energy and vocals to close the halftime show and deliver Maroon 5’s familiar hits. He also managed to lose his shirt in the process - stripping off his tank top and tossing it aside to writhe and peacock around the stage half-naked. The song became secondary, eclipsed by Levine’s extensive tattoos and the results of his upper-body workouts. In that moment, for the first time in the whole performance, it felt like Maroon 5 were actually doing something memorable.
