A Little Fall of Rain

For some odd reason I was thinking the other day about Nick Jonas singing "A Little Fall of Rain" with Samantha Barks for the 25th Anniversary of Les Misérables.  I used to love the Jonas Brothers (bet you're so surprised by that), but Nick's voice sounds completely different when he sings pop than when he sings Broadway.

Once you have listened to "Burnin' Up," listen to "A Little Fall of Rain."

Nick got his start on Broadway at the age of seven in A Christmas Carol, Annie Get Your Gun, Beauty and the Beast, Les Misérables, and would return in 2010 for the 25th Anniversary of Les Misérables concert in London at the O2 Arena.  In 2012, Nick would once again impress with his role as J. Pierrepont Finch in the Broadway musical, How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.  

Got Me Going Crazy

With the Jonas Brothers' sudden split, I have been thinking about their music a lot recently.

The band has released four studio albums:

1. It's About Time - 2006
2. Jonas Brothers - 2007
3. A Little Bit Longer - 2008
4. Lines, Vines, and Trying Times - 2009

I liked the fact that they released a new album every year, especially because I hate waiting!!

Right now, I'm listening to their song "Got Me Going Crazy" off their third album, A Little Bit Longer.  The album got its title from the song Nick wrote about his diabetes.  That was their second best album, their most popular being their fourth and final record Lines, Vines, and Trying Times (as far as the peak chart rankings are concerned).

The brothers released their first record with Columbia records, but released the others with a different label, Hollywood.  Does that have something to do with the fact that they worked with Disney?  We can only assume.

I miss the JoBros, I don't know about you.  Their music was good and they seem like really decent guys.  I was young when they were big like One Direction, so it's kind of an upsetting incident.
