Maroon 5: Animals Meaning

Song Released: 2014

Animals Lyrics

Baby I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down eat you alive
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals

Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent for miles
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals
Baby I'm

So what you...

   The music video shows him stalking her. What else can this be besides premeditate stalking and rape. Anyone with a decent background in law enforcement would tell you the same thing. Plus while he is taking photos of her while she sleeps only after just being outside waiting for her to go to sleep also shows he broke into her residence. So anyone that thinks this is just animal attraction are sadly mistaken. This is a how to song for understanding the mind of a stalker/rapist.

   It's sbout mutual and intense attraction that they csn't deny..they both feel it in their gut, it's magnetic.

   I think its about a guy who loves a girl, and she loves him. They have very good sex for a while, but end up breaking up. But she just keeps coming back, and he is sooo used to her coming, he stays within her range so she can.

   I think animals is about a physical attraction but not a emiotional one. its about how a girl likes a dude for sex really any emiotional connction.

   Being a true Maroon 5 fan. I found the animal song and video a true work of art like only that band and Adam could pull off. Did you notice the man at the end of the video? He doesnt have a beard , is it Adam or someone else. I loved it

    This song is about two people in a non-serious open relationship,but they deny the that they might not be best for each other. They're really great friends and can't live with or without one and other.

    this song is about Adam sooo desperate he resorts to litterally doing what it seriously takes to have her scent forever and probalbly marry her.

    I feel that this song has to do with a man (Adam in this case) having a strong desire for women. Because of this strong attraction, he resides to seeking her looking for her. But for them both, its more about the sexual attraction. The song is not talking about actual animals or violance, but how this strong physical attraction is so great that its basically uncontrolable. "Just like animals" is like saying when we have physically contact we just go crazy. The blood for me is like showing the ongoing sitaution they have.

    It's about a stalker/cannibal, he HUNTS her down (finds her), and EATS HER ALIVE (eating a person, cannibalism).

    This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway
