Everything the Jonas Brothers Have Said About Their Reunion: The Good, the Bad & the Gossipy

<strong>“It definitely wasn’t one conversation, it was many. We started spending a lot of time together and we all kind of felt that there was a magic and there is a magic when we’re together that we missed. We felt like we wanted to feel that magic again, so we talked about it and after a few conversations and a bit of healing that needed to be done with us as family, we all came to the decision to do this again. We got in the studio and that magic that we spoke about, we felt it again. We’re on cloud nine at the moment.”</strong> — <a href="https://people.com/music/jonas-brothers-reunion-why-now/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Nick, on SiriusXM's Morning Mash Up;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">Nick, on SiriusXM's <em>Morning Mash Up</em></a>

<strong>“[Our significant others] were excited. I think that’s the cool part about this next chapter. We’ve been saying this, but ‘family is our favorite ‘f-word.' ”</strong> — <a href="https://people.com/music/jonas-brothers-reunion-why-now/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Nick, on SiriusXM's Morning Mash Up;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">Nick, on SiriusXM's <em>Morning Mash Up</em></a>

<strong>“We definitely were supposed to go through all of what we went through to get to this point. I think it was, it was kind of, I guess you could say destiny, whatever it may be, but yeah, we got a do-over, and I think this time around we’re going to do it right.”</strong> — <a href="https://people.com/music/nick-jonas-afraid-siblings-never-speak-jonas-brothers-split/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Joe, on CBS This Morning;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">Joe, on<em> CBS This Morning</em></a>

<strong>“It’s kind of like coming out of retirement a little bit. It took time to get back into music again, doing the thing that was so much a part of our life, but now it feels so incredible to work together again. I never thought it was going to happen because when people say, ‘Things were bad’ — it was. It’s so cool to be supporting each other as individuals and to be back here now.”</strong> — <a href="https://people.com/music/jonas-brothers-reunite-things-not-good-when-band-split/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Kevin, during a chat with Z100's Elvis Duran;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">Kevin, during a chat with Z100's Elvis Duran</a>

<strong>“It came back naturally. There’s things that are a challenge, like remembering certain lyrics, and other things, but what Joe spoke about too, the magic, I can’t stress that enough too.

<strong>“Being there to support each other in our individual lives, and then also what we care about, and not think of it as a deterrent from the group but part of it.

<strong>“I think [our significant others] are starting to realize who the Jonas Brothers are now.

<strong>“We had to work through and understand what we were going through when we were that young. It was interesting because for so many years we just put it under the rug.

<strong>“I sort of began the conversation about doing this again and after a few more conversations they came around … Thankfully, some good healing happened during filming this documentary.

<strong>“[Our documentary] was gonna be a story about where we are today. And that was, separate lives doing separate things — Joe with DNCE, and me with my solo stuff. During that time, we started to realize there was a magic that we felt like we were missing. So the process was basically just, ‘Why don’t we give this another shot?’ We started playing a little music together and realized right away this is where we’re meant to be in our lives at this moment."</strong> — <a href="https://people.com/music/jonas-brothers-therapy-year-before-reunion-late-late-show/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Nick, on The Late Late Show with James Corden;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">Nick, on <em>The Late Late Show with James Corden</em></a>

<strong>"Basically, about a year ago we started talking about making a documentary together. That was the start of it — just to tell our story, our childhood and into our career together.
