Jonas Brothers = Hanson
Most people can argue that the Jonas Brothers are Hanson (2.0).
Recently, the much older Hanson’s shared nothing but ‘love’ for the new, wholesome, brotherly kings of pop.
From a recent interview with Access Hollywood, the Hanson’s share some thoughts about the Jonas brothers.
The eldest Hanson, Issac told the show:
“I wish them all the best in the world. It’s a hard job and they’re definitely packing a lot in.”
Taylor Hanson, on the other hand said:
“On the musical side, I think there’s very little similarity between us and the Jonas Brothers but I think they seem like really talented guys. They care about each other. [I] just really wish them a lot of luck. I hope they can translate what they’ve done into a career — a long career — in a similar way that we’ve been able to for many years. It’s a great privilege to be able to have this be your career… One clear thing the Jonas Brothers actually have going for them is they have written their own songs. I think what you see a lot of times, unfortunately people like Britney Spears or people that seem to go off the rails when they started out, it wasn’t really their deal. For us, people used to joke like, ‘We couldn’t stop you guys from doing it if we wanted to. When we were young, it was our songs, it was our show, it was our attitude, it was our vision for music videos… For better or worse it was always us. So instead of us waking up in a drunken stupor [years later] and realizing someone stole our money, we started off doing what we wanted and we continued.”
Good to know the Hansons have nice words for the younger generation.
I just wonder, how nice these words really are once the cameras are turned off.
They actually bring out a good point. One of the most
important things in a LOOOOOOOOOOOONG music career is writing your own music. Unlike most pop singers who just have the pipes but don’t have enough creativity to write their own tunes.
But, we wonder what the Hansons really say about the younger versions of themselves behind the camera.
