After heating up the springtime with “Sucker” and “Cool,” Jonas Brothers are cruising into Summer ’19 with the insistently groovy “Only Human.”
The band’s latest single became an instant fan-favorite after the release of their June comeback album, Happiness Begins, and it’s easy to see why — “Only Human” meets all the criteria for a serious Song of Summer contender. To prove it, the guys performed on Late Night with Seth Meyers on Thursday (July 18), with a four-piece horn section in tow. As Kevin jammed away on guitar, Joe and Nick traded falsetto-heavy verses about convincing their special someone to stop overthinking and just dance.
“We gon’ dance in my living room / Slave to the way you move / Hurts when I’m leaving you,” they harmonized over a funky bass line. “Just dance in the living room / Love with an attitude / Drunk to an ’80s groove.” See the full performance — which also features some swaggering dance moves and lively approval from the audience — below.
Jonas Brothers have been on a tear since making their long-awaited comeback earlier this year. “Sucker” became their first No. 1 single ever, while Happiness Begins also topped the charts and had the biggest debut week of any album this year. Next up, the band will embark on a lengthy tour in August and release a memoir, Blood, in November. But first, expect to hear “Only Human” everywhere this summer.
