Description:

Produced by John Fields (with Jon Lind and Kevin Jonas, Sr., serving as executive producers), "A Little Bit Longer" covers much musical and emotional ground, kicking off with the joyful jam "BB Good." Says Joe of the track, "It's a big sing-along song, and it's fun." The funky and danceable debut single, "Burnin' Up," keeps the party going, with Big Rob, the brothers' hefty security guard, rapping midtrack. "It's about this girl," adds Joe. "Maybe she's at a party, and you feel that immediate connection. You both know it's there." Though relentlessly upbeat, most songs on "A Little Bit Longer" explore star-crossed standoffs and missed romantic opportunities. Songs like "Shelf," the hard-rocking "Pushin' Me Away" and "One Man Show" survey love's unequal playing field, bad break-ups and the defiant isolation that follows. "'Shelf' is one my favorite songs on the record," says Nick. "Basically, it's about a girl that has a gallery of hearts." Other songs take a light-hearted look at the craziness of fame and fortune. "Video Girl" paints a portrait of the shallow wannabees dotting the entertainment landscape (" Move to L.A., got no talent/Not even like you won a Miss Teen pageant"), while "Lovebug" starts out as sweet-tempered acoustic love song before ending up a crashing Queen-like rocker. Of course, the brothers made sure the album breathes. The power ballad "Sorry" features classic JB harmonies and an eternal message of forgiveness. But the song that will have people talking is "A Little Bit Longer," Nick's stunning account of his struggle with diabetes. With strings underscoring a plaintive piano/vocal, he sings about his battle ("A little bit longer and I'll be fine/Waitin' on a cure/But none of them are sure"). Recalls Nick, "I was having one of those days where I was discouraged. So I went into this empty hotel ballroom and wrote this song." Adds brother Kevin, "Nick sings this song every night and it brings people to tears. It's amazing." The brand new album from the Jonas Brothers includes a 30 page CDVU+ experience including: Exclusive Video Performances 60 Printable Photos Complete Album Lyrics Downloadable Graphics Hidden Links Package Made from 100% Recycled Materials!

1WHAT'S THAT I HEAR??  Oct 26, 2009
its the music industry scrapping at the bottom of the barrel looking to make money off kids who can not sing for their lives. This album proves you don't have to have talent to be famous and rich.

Songs just get better and better, pants on other hand get tighter and tighter!!!! lol

5A Little Bit Longer  Aug 23, 2009
The 3rd album from the talented group the Jonas Brothers is a rocker! There songs are amazing and the fact that they recorded all of this while on Tour which shows how much time and energy they put on their CD. My favorite songs are: "Burnin' Up", "Tonight" Video Girl" and "A Little Bit Longer" This CD is worth your money! Buy it!

5Better than what I expected!  Aug 10, 2009
When I bought this cd, my intention was to check it out. I listen to it a couple of times and thought the music was pretty cool. I started learning the words and eventually I was singing along. I thought the music was only for kids but it really isn't. I enjoyed it as much as a child would. I strongly recommend it!!

3Not as Good as Lines, Vines, and Trying Times, But Not Bad  Jul 16, 2009
Though not as good as their latest album, LInes VInes and Trying Times, A Little Bit Longer is still a decent album.
BB Good-a power pop number with humorous lyrics and a catchy chorus-4/5
Burnin' Up-has a catchy hook, very Maroon 5 influenced, a feel-good summer song-4/5
Shelf-one of the weaker tracks, could have been left off-3/5
One Man Show-a powerful song about independence-4/5
Lovebug-an interesting carribeanish song, a catchy love song with a good guitar solo thrown in near the end-5/5
Tonight-a song with a good rhytm and a cachy chorus,another party song like Burnin Up-4/5
Can't Have You-a good power ballad with sad lyrics-4/5
Video Girl-catchy, a true depiction of girls that are obsessed with wealth and fame, risky but it works-4.5/5
Pushin' Me Away-okay, but weak compared to some tracks-3/5
Sorry-a sad and emotional song with powerful lyrics-4/5
Got Me Going Crazy-another danceable song, but too similar to BUrnin' Up and Tonight-3/5
A Little Bit LOnger-a sad, but well written song about Nick having diabetes. Nick has the best writing abilities and the best voice of the group-5/5
