- Hi, I'm Sarah Evans.
And we're looking back on my crossroads performance
with Maroon Five.
♪ I'm gonna do it darling ♪
♪ I could waste time trying to figure it out ♪
- We had so much chemistry on stage together.
I mean, you look at us in some of these shots and some
of these songs, and it looks like we're madly in love.
But the initial meeting between Adam Levine
and me was not what I thought it was gonna be.
So prior to him and his band
flying to Nashville for our rehearsals,
we'd had a phone conversation that was very good,
but he shows up, he was not prepared whatsoever.
♪ Hold you close ♪
♪ Chasing that mood ♪
♪ Spending all night ♪
♪ Moving through you, oh ♪
At the end of our rehearsal day,
my two sisters and my brother,
they stayed till midnight with Adam
and taught him all the songs and all the parts.
♪ Figure it out ♪
♪ What love really means ♪
And the next day we come in
we had rehearsals all day before the actual taping.
He brought me flowers.
He said he was really sorry.
And he said, that was very disrespectful of me.
And then we just had a great rehearsal.
♪ There is a change in me ♪
He only sang one part, "holding you close,
chasing that mood"
♪ Spending all night moving through you, oh ♪
His voice sounded perfect on it.
(upbeat piano)
The pink mic stand was just the phase
that I was in at the time.
Isn't it cool?
I loved it.
Oh my God.
I'm just laughing at myself the way I'm dancing.
The great thing about Maroon Five is that
country fans love them too.
And so everybody in the audience knew This Love.
♪ I was so high I did not recognize ♪
♪ The fire burning in her eyes ♪
- This Love was just one of the fun ones.
That was one that his band played.
So that was really cool for me
because I love the whole band.
They were all the nicest guys and, you know,
they sounded amazing.
♪ This love has taken its toll on me ♪
♪ She said goodbye too many times before ♪
Our voices are very similar.
We both have really high voices with a lot of vibrato.
This Love is just perfect
because it has that high harmony that I did.
So we just sounded amazing together.
♪ I tried my best to feed her appetite ♪
♪ and keep her (censored) every night ♪
Ooh, there's a shot right there,
where Adam's like really close to me.
That was a little scandalous right there.
He's a great performer.
And I'm a great performer.
We both been on stage forever.
So we knew how to work it.
