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