Oh! It’s not your face that I do not wish to see again, but… You will come to know about the face shortly.

Cue Adam! (and yay. Rihanna.)
Fiery red nails and sharing a hotel room with Adam Levine? That could only mean one thing!

Someone’s feeling naughty.

Ah, a red room. Chandeliers? Very classy. Then suddenly, Rihanna inserts some of her high-pitched vocals in the song.
*Shudders*

I am struggling, honestly struggling, to come into terms with the fact the Rihanna was chosen to perform a collaboration with Maroon 5.

Look.
There can only be one sexy falsetto in a song. More than that, you have got yourself a knock out. (where your brain will implode.)

I appreciate how the tune was switched up a little, which gave it a slight difference to the studio version. Yet, it is a true pity that the members of the band are left out due to a very show-stealing combination.

Some time at 1:34, the duo breaks out in a sing-off, and obvious flirting.
A few beats later, we see Rihanna rudely pushing Adam’s shoulders.
Sexy?

We’ll see about that.

Let’s see.
We have Rihanna lying on Adam’s lap, her stroking Adam’s guitar at 2:55 (highly suggestive), stealing glances, rolling about seductively on Adam’s bed, and probably turned on, most of the time…

In conclusion, I give this amped up, and mainly sexed up video, a 10 out of 10 for Adam and his bandmates, but a 1 out of 10 for Rihanna.
Sorry girl, I don’t think the competing falsettos/headvoices worked out for me.

Now, let me go nurse my earache and throbbing headache.

Mood: Irate.
