码率:320KCBR

专辑简介：

It Won't Be Soon Before Long是Maroon 5的第二张录音室专辑，在首张专辑Songs About Jane发行了近5年后于2007年5月22日上市。专辑的名字一直在他们巡演时激励他们自己。专辑首周销量42万9484张，空降Billboard 200榜单榜首。

这份澳洲巡演限量发行版豪华版 It Won't Be Soon Before Long has一共是12首曲目附上9支B-Sides。乐队的成员们表示，这张专辑和上一张的感觉并不一样。意境并不是围绕和Songs About Jane那样同一种关系展开，同时在音乐方面也大不相同：采用了更多的电音，并且受到了Talking Heads, Michael Jackson和Prince等艺人的影响。而一份评论称这张专辑感觉很复古。Adam Levine解释道，这个标题很自信，也很富有诗意。

Levine和其余一些艺人一同在录音室工作的经历对这张专辑有着深远影响：“Kanye West和Alicia Keys实在是天赋惊人，尽管风格迥异。和这么出色的艺人一同工作，无疑有很多值得借鉴之处。”其中“Nothing Last Forever”中的合声部分就和Kanye West的单曲“Heard 'Em Say”的那部分“……the distance between us makes it so hard to say”相同。

Metacritic根据14份评论最终给专辑打出66分，其中包括Allmusic给出的4星半评价，“无邪，耀眼的作品。”Billboard同样给出4星半。滚石杂志给出的07年50大专辑中，这张排名32。

It Won't Be Soon Before Long is Maroon 5's second studio album, released on May 22, 2007. It came almost a full five years after their debut, Songs About Jane. The name was inspired by a phrase the band adopted to keep themselves motivated while on their tour. The album debuted at number one on the U.S. Billboard 200, selling 429,484 copies in its first week.

The band stated in interviews that the album has a different feel to it than the Songs About Jane. The songs are not all based on one specific relationship, as in Jane; and also have a different sound than their first album, being more electric and drawing inspiration from such artists as the Talking Heads, Michael Jackson and Prince. A review written prior to the album's release described the songs as having a very retro feel. Adam Levine explained that this record is a little more self-confident and powerful lyrically: "...you can dance to it, there's a little more attitude."

According to Levine working with other artists had influences on the album: "Kanye West and Alicia Keys are amazing talents, in totally different ways. Just seeing such amazing people working in the studio. I definitely took things away from them."

The chorus of "Nothing Lasts Forever" is the same used in the Kanye West single "Heard 'Em Say", which features Adam Levine with exclusion to the line, "...the distance between us makes it so hard to stay..."

Initial critical response to It Won't Be Soon Before Long was positive. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album has received an average score of 66, based on 14 reviews.Allmusic rated the album 4.5 stars out of 5, commenting that the production of the album "is so immaculate that it glistens". Billboard rated it 4.5 stars. This album was #32 on Rolling Stone's list of the Top 50 Albums of 2007.
