Singles is a compilation album by American pop rock band Maroon 5 released on September 25, 2015, through Interscope Records. The album includes twelve of the band's greatest hit singles released from their five studio albums: Songs About Jane (2002), It Won't Be Soon Before Long (2007), Hands All Over (2010), Overexposed (2012), and V (2014).

Fans have also responded to the lack of more favorable hits on the album, such as "Harder to Breathe", "Sunday Morning" and "Won't Go Home Without You".[5]
