This summer has been a hot one from Boston to Sydney. In Michigan, we were lucky to get a breeze on Sunday. I was so happy to get that cool air I had finally wanted. Hopefully, it keeps up.

What exactly is “cool air?” I call it a 5 Seconds of Summer Breeze. You see 5 Seconds of Summer defines coolness. And another word for air is breeze. Plus, Luke Hemmings, Michael Clifford, Calum Hood, and Ashton Irwin are keeping it up!

Do you feel the heat? 5 Seconds of Summer blazes with the best of them. I guarantee 5SOS can make you sweat. Just ask their 9.6 million Twitter followers if the pop rock band gets them hot and steamy.

Luckily, the band was discovered by One Direction on YouTube. Can you believe it all started in 2011 on a video streaming website? Right now 5SOS are going in one direction for certain. I bet 5SOS never imagined this level of fame in their wildest dreams. It may get to the point where the music group is actually bigger than One Direction.

Did you know this Australian band of high school classmates opened up for One Direction? Now, the question in showbiz is who can open up for 5 Seconds of Summer. In a matter of years, 5SOS have transitioned from entertainment lightweights to heavyweights. Who can deny that they are some of the most famous people on the planet?

What are your favorite 5 Seconds of Summer songs? I like Amnesia, the new Girls Talk Boys, and English Love Affair. You see the You Look So Perfect singers sound so perfect sometimes.

Final thoughts- the 5SOS Rejects have a good story to tell. The truth is that they were rejected. Things weren’t easy at first. However, they persevered instead of perspiring. Relax and take time to enjoy the summer breeze if only for 5 seconds.

I’ve followed Robin Thicke since the Jurassic period. He started his career off with a big bang. Although ‘A Beautiful World’ didn’t go platinum, true fans appreciate real artistry.

Fortunately, The Evolution of Robin Thicke did go platinum. Before the best selling Blurred Lines, Robin experienced a rise and dawn like Caesar from the Planet of the Apes. Lost Without U is clearly one of Thicke’s best songs.

The musician has a long history of hits. If Sex Therapy: The Session is a double than the Blurred Lines album is a walk-off homerun. How can you beat 350 million plus YouTube views? Thicke shows why he’s a terrific singer.

There’s a reason Adam Levine is a judge on The Voice. The Maroon 5 bandleader is crafty like a magician. He has a lengthy vocal range.

I like listening to Moves Like Jagger when playing chess. Also, Adam Levine’s guitar skills are underrated. And his creativity is often mindboggling.

I respect Adam Levine for not abandoning his band for greener pastures. Nowadays, loyalty and trust are rare assets. Adam Levine is a good friend who values brotherhood.

Adam defines greatness with his dynamic abilities. With that said, I’d rather perform onstage with Levine. However, I’d choose to record with Robin Thicke.

Both music artists have similar styles and talents. The main difference is Robin’s a solo act. I’m not knocking Thicke for going at it alone.

I just feel the more the merrier.

As a side note, Robin toured with Maroon 5 in 2013. So, this comparison is not far-fetched. If I had to choose, I’d go with Robin over Adam.

Levine still lives in Maroon 5’s shadow.

Are you an Adam Levine/ Maroon 5 or Robin Thicke fan? In your opinion, who’s the best singer? Which musician do you listen to on a regular basis?
