Kevin Jonas: “Changing” (2025)
The last of the three Jonas Brothers to step out with a solo single, Kevin Jonas had previously contented himself supporting brothers Joe and Nick as songwriter, guitarist and backing vocalist.
However his reflective “Changing” has been warmly received since he debuted it at the Fenway Park stop on the Brothers’ 2025 tour.
To quote Danielle Holian’s excellent summation in Atwood Magazine:
The lyric that has already become its signature appears in the opening verse, “This coffee’s cold like these same old conversation.” The line has a lived-in realism. This song is truly an awakening. A recognition of the subtle erosion of routine, the quiet hollowness that can creep into the corners of adult life, even when nothing is technically wrong. It’s the soundtrack of a person lifting their head one morning and thinking, “What if I am overdue for a new chapter?”
From a songwriting perspective, “Changing” perfectly displays a mastery of the contemporary hit formula of following a verse with a climb (in this case, melodically-speaking a literal one) to a memorable chorus.
We dedicate this one to the crusty, taste-locked “new music sucks” curmudgeons who won’t listen to anything less than 40 years old.
There are still people out there who know how to do this pop music thing.
