After a long hiatus, Maroon 5 is back on the scene with a new album. They're leading off with a fantastic single, "Makes Me Wonder." In a recent interview with News.com.au, Maroon 5 front man Adam Levine explains that the meaning in the song runs a bit deeper than the obvious tale of waning love, it also is a statement towards US involvement in the Iraq war.

I really wanted to write a political song, a song that reflected the way I felt about everything. It's one of the most difficult things in the world to do without coming off as a total arse and preachy - all the things that I hate about a lot of songwriting. So I didn't want to overtly say it. I just wanted to allude to it.

Political statement or not, we just think Adam is getting nothing but HOTTER as the years go by and delivers a smoldering performance in the new video.

[UPDATE 4pm: Fixed the broken images... sorry 'bout that!]
