Are You Ready For the FASTLIFE?


Tomorrow. Tomorrow is the day!



Even since Joe started recording the album, I've been beyond excited. I've spent four months of my life dreaming of what it will sound like. What I'll feel. How popular it will be. All the dreaming, and wondering is about to end, and be replaced with memories.

I've heard about half the album, and it is INSANE. It's so different from anything I would've expected. It's different then what anyone would expect. Nick's solo project was very predictable. (At least for me.) He's definitely a bluesy, soul kind of guy, so it fit nicely.

Joe's is so different. He said it used to have a Michael Buble sound to it, but it evolved over time, and turned into a darker, club, dance sort of record. But it also has a couple ballads that break your heart, and make it ache. (Sorry and Lighthouse)

Fastlife is the title, and it makes me want to just party until two in the morning. I LOVE the intro, it's like GENIUS. It definitely fits with the song perfectly.

Make sure to buy the album. It's really, really good. I'm just so proud of Joe and all he's accomplished this past year. He's going to make me even more proud in the coming while as he produces, and stars in a movie he helped write.

This journey is almost over. the album will be in my hands. Thanks for reading all these Joe rambles. I promise they'll be a little less frequent.

I don't really know what you're thinkin'
But I know what we're drinkin'
Let me put your night in drive
Calkwalkin' on the runway
Trippin' down on the highway
Comin' home is only right
Can't see nothin' but blurred lines!
Actin' like it's your first time!
Girl I'm done with these games,
and you need to get in my lane
Pushin' into the red line

Girl you know that you want it,
and you know that I got it!
And we know where we're goin'

Buy it.


What? You're NOT Going to buy it?!


That is NOT how this is gonna go down.
Buy it.
Buy Fastlife on 10-11-11.

Oh!
You ARE gonna buy it!
Well...


 Awesome.



We're cool then.

She's a Stone Cold Dream Stealer



2 more days!

The excitement is getting to me. My dreams all this week have involved Joe Jonas is some way or another. Friday night I dreamt Joe took me on a date and started singing 'Idiot Boyfriend' by Jimmy Fallon to me. (He has sang it that night when he performed with the Roots on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon) and last night, I dreamt that Joe came to my door, grabbed my hand, and lead me out to the desert by my house. He began to sing Make You Mine, and Lighthouse to me.

I'm definitely excited for this album.

Today's blog title is a lyric from Joe's song, Love Slayer. One of the first songs of the record I heard, and also the first one that showed us that a lot of the song on this album are there to prove he's an adult, not a teenie Disney star anymore.

Love Slayer!
Causin' nothin' but trouble babe,
and I want more of it.
Love Slayer!
Causin' nothin' but trouble babe,
and I think I love it!
She's a killer
Straight up, no feelin's
If you ain't heard about her,
She's a stone cold dream stealer.

Her Kiss is Like A Rope And Chain

3 days.

 Three days until the actual release date of Fastlife. He leaked the album yesterday though, so I've heard full studio versions of songs I've heard him sing live. (I want to still be surprised on the ones I haven't heard yet.)

'Im going to tell you about a different song from the record that I've heard so far, everyday until October 11th. Sound like a plan? Cool.

Let's talk about Kleptomaniac. It is by FAR the craziest song I've ever heard. Whenever I hear it I wanna run around and dance like a psychopath (and 70% or the time I do)
 It's just crazy.  This is just a taste of the lyrics. I'm gonna make you wait until October 11th to hear the music though ;) Just buy the record! Buy $10 you'll ever spend I promise!

Oh, that girl can kill you with her smile.
She'll see you comin' from a mile.
So don't leave nothin' in your p-p-p-pocket! (P-p-p-pocket!)
Oh, her kiss is like a rope and chain,
she'll put that poison in your brain.
And there and nothin' you can do to stop it. (St-st-stop it!)

STOP

“In this world it’s so easy to hate it, but you should always remember that you were chosen to be on this earth” - Joe Jonas

I saw this on tumblr, and found it way to powerful not to post here. This doesn't just here because I want the Joe hate to stop. (But don't get me wrong, I DO) I just want hate to stop in general. Love everyone. Always

You'll Start Rolling Your Eyes As Soon As You Read This Post

Joe Jonas was on George Lopez last night! (See, I told you!)

He was charming, funny, and completely adorable! Anyways, just watch the interviews and see. He was great. Especially during the 'Simplier Times' bit. Oh! And for the record I am NOT the girl who sent them a dead shark. I may seem like  crazy fangirl, but I'm not that crazy!

Enjoy!

Look At the Stars, Look How They Shine For You

A couple weeks ago, Nick Jonas and The Administration played a show in Canada. Nick did a cover of one of my favorite songs ever, and I ended up bawling in front of my computer when I watched it. Strangely, I don't have the song on my iPod. I never got  around to buying it I guess. If you've heard the song, then you can probably guess what it is, since my favorite line is the title of this post.

Here's the lyrics, and a youtube link to the original, and the NJATA versions.

Yellow, By Coldplay

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah, they were all yellow.
I came along,
I wrote a song for you,
And all the things you do,
And it was called "Yellow".
So then I took my turn,
Oh what a thing to have done,
And it was all "Yellow."
Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
You know, you know I love you so,
You know I love you so.
I swam across,
I jumped across for you,
Oh what a thing to do.
Cos you were all "Yellow",
I drew a line,
I drew a line for you,
Oh what a thing to do,
And it was all "Yellow."
Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
And you know,
For you I'd bleed myself dry,
For you I'd bleed myself dry.
It's true,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine.
Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And all the things that you do.

Maybe This...

I think this summarizes what I was saying earlier better. I'm part of a family. I'm one of the people who was blessed with a heart open to the three boys from New Jersey that have changed so many lives. I'm a Jonas Brothers fan, and I don't care what YOU think.

This is Me!

I am a Jonas Head. A Jonatic. I'm a Kevinator (Kevin Jonas Fan), a Stayer (Nick Jonas Fan), and last but not least, a Joe Hoe (That one speaks for itself. Joe Jonas fan...)

I do not care what you think about that! This is me! I have been a Jonas Head since I was 10 years old. It was completely by chance. I went to that concert to see Hannah Montana, but I came out in love with three boys from New Jersey.

They taught me a lot about myself. When people think of the Jonas Brothers, they think of Disney pop and decide not to listen. They hear the music, they just don't listen to it. The don't understand that 'A Little Bit Longer' is an amazing, emotional piano piece about Nick's struggle with Type 1 Diabetes since the age of 13. They don't know how much the lyrics from 'Don't Speak' speak to me!

There's a lot that you don't notice
When you read between the lines
The future's out of focus
And blinded by the light
It's a hope for all the hopeless
In the worst of trying times
I resort to being speechless
So I'll avoid the lines! 

The picture above is from a great blog that ALL Jonas Heads should check out.

They are NOT just a boy band. They actually have great music that has touched lives. Think about it for a minute. Have your heard their music, or have you listened to it?

I Don't Wanna See No More!

So Joe Jonas has officially started his solo career! It took a few listens, but I actually kind of like the song! It's very... mainstream I guess is a good word to use. Definitely something that could make it on the top 40 list. It's not my favorite, but I'm being supportive because that's what Jonas fans to!

I really need some Jonas friends to hang out with/facebook. It's pretty lonely being the only Jonas Brothers fan in your whole town possibly! I need to get better at being friendly to fans at concerts. Maybe I'll end up with a Jonas friend I can hang out with.

Blogging cuz I'm bored,

There is Sweet Music Here

I'm gonna talk abut a band during this blog. It's not the Jonas Brothers, but the band does know them. Ocean Grove is there name, and playing catchy tunes is there game. John, Greg, Jack, and Ryan are four guys who met when they became members of the Jonas Brothers back in '05. Six music filled years later, they've broken away into a very awesome band with very awesome music. I love all 4 of their songs, but Grab Your Coat is my all time favorite. (As I've mentioned)

It's amazing! I'm so excited that I might get to go see them in concert in June! Check them out because they're really awesome! Greg is third in line on my list of musicians I want to marry. (Joe and Nick Jonas re ahead of him) He is the one with the Jesus haircut :)
