"Daylight," a soft rock ballad about realizing that someone has to move on from an old relationship, is the third single lifted off Maroon 5's latest fourth studio installment "Overexposed." The band's frontman Adam Levine once said of the music video, "As different as we all are, there are common themes that bring us together, inspire and show everyone what is important today. With this video, we'll present the world today and beyond, creating more than just a music video."

The Levine-fronted band are seen performing live while mixing the female vocalists into the backing harmonies. Most of the scenes are packed with real-footage of musicians from singers, drummers, guitarists, didgeridoo players, tribal drummers and more, performing on the streets to support the project. It manages to blend many unique instruments unlikely found on any Maroon 5 record including an accordion, tribal drums and a didgeridoo. All profits raised from the release will go towards building music schools for children around the world.
