Lisa Joins Maroon 5 for Emotional Guitar-Led Single ‘Priceless’
Adam Levine described “Priceless” as a return to emotional authenticity, sharing that the intro was recorded using just his iPhone and an unplugged guitar. He spoke about how the process felt like reconnecting with the band’s origins — a sound many longtime fans had been yearning for. The band emphasized this track as being raw and personal.
The song’s lyrical theme touches on the value of real love versus superficial gestures. Lisa’s verse flips the script with assertive lines that highlight independence and self-worth, giving the song a dual perspective and global appeal. Her delivery adds bold texture to Maroon 5’s smooth pop-rock sound, enriching the song’s dynamics.
Universal Music, which announced the single, described the collaboration as a cultural milestone. This is not only Maroon 5’s first K-pop collaboration but also another bold step in Lisa’s expansive solo career. Her presence has helped the track trend worldwide across streaming platforms and social media.
The buzz began in late April, when Maroon 5 teased the track on Instagram with behind-the-scenes footage. Fans speculated about the mystery female lead — later revealed to be Lisa — generating massive interest. With the announcement of a full album and global tour, “Priceless” is just the beginning of a big year for both Maroon 5 and Lisa.
“Priceless” isn’t just a single — it’s a statement. The collaboration between Maroon 5 and Lisa shows how genre and language barriers continue to dissolve in global pop.
“The guitar intro is literally me playing into an audio message on my iPhone with an unplugged guitar.” — Adam Levine
