At the end of the video, the sentence “For Jordi” is shown. The music video shows Levine singing the track to a camera in a dark room, with a light shining on his face. The music video for “Memories” was released on YouTube on the 8th October 2019, and was directed by David Dobkin. We heard the skeleton of this song and thought it matched where we were at.” We lost our longtime manager, Jordan Feldstein. You know, we experienced some loss in the last couple of years. In other words, this song is for all of us.” Guitarist of Maroon 5, James Valentine, also stated how the song was a different sound for them: “It’s a different kind of song for us…It’s an important song for us. The band’s lead singer, Adam Levine tweeted about “Memories” and its meaning: “This song is for anyone who has ever experienced loss. “Memories”, in terms of its composition is based on the harmonic sequence and melody of “Pachelbel Canon” by Johann Pachelbel, a German composer. The track was written by main vocalist Adam Levine, Stefan Johnson, Jordan Johnson, Michael Pollack, Jacob Kasher Hindlin, Jon Bellion and Vincent Ford. This song can sound very sensual to one and equally sinister to another.“Memories” is the lead single from pop group Maroon 5 and their upcoming seventh studio album. Everyone’s own experiences will make them hear a song differently. Sometimes one would secretly and discretely seek out the other (pursue) just to re-experience that remembered thrill. That love lasted through a long, loving and successful marriage to someone else but that other lover and I could be in the same area and know when the other one was nearby, still following each other’s “scent.” (Hard to hide but do-able). Personal experience -you bet! I understood the song as soon as I heard it. Some loves are too strong to ever forget. Everytime you are near each other or even hear about each other all of those feelings rise to the surface and given the chance you will likely react and re-experience those things even knowing that afterward you will walk away again. You might fight it, try to stay away from each other, move on to new relationships but the emotions and memories don’t go away. Those emotions don’t disappear overnight and sometimes not ever. I view this as being about a strong former relationship, maybe even a marriage, that didn’t work out for a reason other than not loving each other. I’m speaking from an older point of view. The way she gives herself to him is insane. She tried moving on, and they both can’t. I really think she only wanted sex from him in the past, and nothing more. Either this was before their relationship and she isn’t interested, or she knows exactly who he is, and she’s tired of him. At the club, he tries to say hi, but she brushes him off. She looks like she’s into it, completely his. I think it’s symbolic for how evil or dirty their love making is. There’s also the scene when they both are doing it, and blood is on their bodies. I don’t think he means to hurt her, or he would have. In the video he takes pictures of her while she sleeps, and lays on her bed. The song is about strong attraction to someone you can’t let go of. Hunt you down eat you alive” He’s found her. “I can still hear you making that sound.” Her moans. But I get so high when I'm inside you” He tried to forget about her, but can’t. Maybe when they were together she used him for sex, and he’s addicted. You're like a drug that's killing me” They obviously have been together at one point. “It's like we can't stop, we're enemies, But we get along when I'm inside you, eh. “So what you trying to do to me” She’s torturing him. He knows he’s the best at it, or at least she likes the way he does it more. “You can pretend it’s meant to be.” I take it as she’s living a lie with another guy, and he’s saying go ahead and pretend her lover is the one. “You can start over, you can run free, you can find other fish in the sea.” He’s telling her, go on and date the guy she’s with or other guys, but she’s his. When he’s inside her, they both come alive. I’ll eat them up.” She tries to convince him and herself that she doesn’t love him. She knows about him, but she is hiding… I’m guessing recently moved. “Maybe you think that you can hide.” Implies she is on the run. He takes these pictures of her, and sorts through them. He examines pictures of her, various parts… like her eyes and lips. His obsession with her is out of control. She might get the feeling that she’s being watched, because in the music video, she turns to look behind her. He follows her around because of his strong attraction to her.
