Adam Levine - Original Band Kara's Flowers

Original Band Kara's Flowers

Having met at Brentwood School in Los Angeles, the band released their first album titled The Fourth World in 1997 as high school seniors. That same year the band appeared on an episode of Beverly Hills, 90210. The album had little success, and its only single, "Soap Disco", failed commercially. Disappointed with the results of their album, the band members went their separate ways.

Levine and Carmichael left Los Angeles for New York. This was the first time the two Los Angeles natives were exposed to a completely different music scene, a cultural awakening for the young men. On MTV News, in 2002, Levine said, "That's when I started waking up to the whole hip hop, R&B thing. We had friends named Chaos and shit. It was not Brentwood High."

    “I would like [the working man] to give me back books and newspapers and theories. And I would like to give him back, in return, his old insouciance, and rich, original spontaneity and fullness of life.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “There was a young lady called Gloria
    Who was had by Sir Gerald Du Maurier
    And then by six men
    And Sir Gerald again
    And the band of the Waldorf-Astoria.”
    —Anonymous.

    “Twas on a lofty vase’s side,
    Where China’s gayest art had dyed
    The azure flowers that blow;
    Demurest of the tabby kind,
    The pensive Selima reclined,
    Gazed on the lake below.”
    —Thomas Gray (1716–1771)
