Sugar by Maroon 5 was inspired by the loving feelings Adam Levine had towards his then-girlfriend and now wife, Behati Prinsloo. The band wanted to create an upbeat track that reflected the joy of love. The music video for the song, featuring the band crashing real weddings to perform, added a layer of spontaneity and joy to the songs promotion.
