Maroon 5 released the music video for their latest single, "Memories," the band's tribute for their late manager, Jordan Feldstein, who died unexpectedly in December 2017. The video is simple and minimalist, featuring a close-up of Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine as he sings along with the song, but it's a vulnerable shot. The singer visibly chokes up as the camera pans away from him, letting the song play over him as he composes himself. At the end of the video, the screen fades to black and the words "For Jordi" appear on screen.

Feldstein, the brother of actors Jonah Hill and Beanie Feldstein, died at 40 years old from a blood clot that caused a pulmonary embolism. He and Levine were childhood friends, and when speaking to Variety, Levine called his death "a tragedy foisted upon us and far and away one of the saddest moments of our lives."

The video is a beautifully somber tribute to the late manager, with Levine allowing fans to see him unguarded and pay their respects to the band's late friend. Watch "Memories" above.
