Perhaps pick the food out of your teeth before performing on live television?

Alfred Soto: In which les fréres Jonas diddley some Bo while unleashing some of the scariest high notes in recent memory.

Brad Shoup: “Edge of Seventeen” guitar and a Bo Diddley backbeat by way of Andy Grammer: level-breaking Wife Guy moves. They’re so excited they tend to sound like mush, but I guess that’s kind of a Jonas thing.

Jackie Powell: Initially, I didn’t think nostalgia was something that the Jonas Brothers could convincingly pull off. Unless of course, it’s reflexive. The Jo Bros can only recreate Camp Rock orYear 3000, right? I say this because of their embarrassing tribute to Earth, Wind, and Fire where they barely knew the words to “Boogie Wonderland.” But then the Jonases decided to hop in the time machine with Ryan Tedder and out popped something a bit more their speed. As a teen and musical theater nerd, I was in Grease twice. I sure know how to snap into the hand-jive when I hear it. Before I saw Joe Jonas as John Travolta’s Danny along-side his wife as both Sandy and Cha-Cha in the music video, I knew the chorus on “What a Man Gotta Do” is just a sped-up 2020 “Born to Hand-Jive” redux. The keys and the rhythm guitar bring Johnny Casino back into the 21st Century. The middle Jonas should be more than familiar as he and his band DNCE played Johnny and his band in 2016’s Grease Live! The youngest Jonas’ verses, as Will Adams pointed out to me, are Nick’s best imitation of Michael Jackson on “Black or White.” If he wants to pay homage to MJ properly, he’s got to drop his jaw, as those vowels can’t be sung for themselves. The Jonas Brothers proved they can steal like artists successfully, and I’ll give them credit for that. But I’d like for them to write an actual bridge in the future instead of some “ooos” that are a part of a scale. Also, the lyrical content of their singles continues to be milquetoast and not very relatable, save for “Sucker.” Why don’t they pass the pen to Kevin next time? Maybe he can be a bit more introspective. He was the only third of the group who stayed out of the limelight for six years.

Isabel Cole: Wait, are the Jonas Brothers good now? And no one told me? Or have they been good the whole time, and I’m just an asshole? This totally slaps! Fun and breezy with just enough faux-retro cutesiness (I DO think that all pop music should remind me of Grease, the best movie of all time) and a solid understanding of how if you pick just the right syllables it simply does not matter if your song has “words.” Do I need to listen to their album now?

Ryo Miyauchi: “What a man gotta do to be totally locked down by you” sounds too good to be true to take at face value. It’s also damning a love song this sincere is sung by a group of dudes who’d be more than eager to put more sleaze into this innocent funk had this been a piece of their own solo material. But the Jonas Brothers are earnest as they can be, thrilled even, about their feelings here. They wisely refrain from wittiness or macho flexing to instead straightly deliver their sentiment about willingly wanting to be tied down.

Alex Clifton: It’s taken me three full listens to realize that Nick sings “you’ve got no flaws” in the first verse rather than “you’ve got no floss.” I couldn’t tell if he meant the dental stuff or the dance, but flaws makes more sense. Anyway, it’s not as good as “Sucker” but it’s a nice dumb slice of fun, and I definitely enjoy how every JoBros song these days is about how much they love their wives. Makes me remember there’s still some good in the world.
