Music for People Who Believe in Love is Joe Jonas at his most fun, chaotic and honest
Expressing my fandom for Joe Jonas isn’t quite accurate; it’s more like I’ve been a devoted fan of the Jonas Brothers since 2007, though my devotion to Joe has always stood out. In essence, I identify as a die-hard fan of Joe.
Before some fellow fans of Joe ask me about it, I do have a copy of his first solo album, “Fastlife,” released in 2011. Although not everyone appreciated it, those of us who gave it a listen really enjoyed it, and I’m happy to be among that group.
In the album titled “Music for People Who Believe in Love“, my expectations were sky-high and justifiably so. Many of us, however, grew impatient when Joe delayed the release date. The original plan had been to launch it in October 2024, but this was postponed indefinitely. Eventually, at JonasCon, he unveiled its new release date: May 23, 2025.
Because of my deep affection for Joe and his entire musical catalog, it took some time for me to gather my thoughts about this album. To be honest, this record is a topic I’ve pondered over for several months, so just being able to listen to it felt incredibly rewarding.
Music for People Who Believe in Love is a new chapter for Joe Jonas.
Before I share my thoughts on the songs, let me first commend Joe on the fantastic arrangement of the tracklist. It beautifully conveys a narrative and paints a picture, making the past events seem real and vivid. It’s amazing to witness the gradual evolution of Joe, his healing process, and his journey towards acceptance.
As a movie buff putting on a new album, I find myself immersed in the melodies of “Woven,” an introductory interlude that hints at the emotional journey ahead. It’s brief and succinct, which may not appeal to everyone, but stick around for “Parachute.” This track sees Joe opening up about his personal struggles following a divorce, and even if you haven’t experienced the same, there’s a universal resonance in his words that will touch you deeply.
Following is the song titled “Work It Out,” which was a hit single and served as an indirect nod towards mental health issues. Given the prevalence of this theme across the album, this isn’t surprising at all. Going through a divorce can take a toll on anyone, and Joe didn’t hesitate to express his feelings. “Only Love” offers a lively, enjoyable vibe since it revolves around dating and having a good time. This is a song I hope Joe performs live because of its infectious energy.
Here’s where things diverge: “Heart by Heart” is a standalone track, but some people claim it’s not included on the CD. Sadly, my local Target didn’t stock his CD, so I haven’t purchased it as of now. Regardless, it’s one of my top choices from the album, delving into a post-relationship dynamic.
The album transitions to “Honey Blonde,” a track that seems to celebrate Joe’s love for someone with blonde hair. This song could be seen as a nod to a real person, but its sensual vibe suggests it might be one he plans to perform live. Following this is “My Own Best Friend,” my personal favorite from the album, which delves into the experience of solitude and learning to accept oneself. Mental health reappears as a theme in this song, making it the most intimate and exposed track on the album.
The next four tracks on the album seem to be the least impressive ones due to their collaborations. It might just be my opinion, but they don’t compare favorably to Joe’s standalone songs. Out of these four, I prefer “Velvet Sunshine,” which includes Franklin Jonas. The other tracks are “Sip Your Wine” with Sierra Ferrell, “Hey Beautiful” featuring Louane and Tiny Habits, and “What We Are” that features Luisa Sonza.
At the end of the album, Jonas offers three tracks: “You Got the Right,” “What This Could Be,” and “Constellation.” These last tunes symbolize hope and the search for fresh affection. They effectively bring a conclusion to not only this album but also that phase in the artist’s life.
As a devoted fan of Joe Jonas for years, my emotions towards this album are mixed – some tracks I adore while others might not be regular playlist material. Yet, that’s what makes this album special: it showcases Joe’s artistic evolution, his skills, and gives us a glimpse into the exciting music we can anticipate from him moving forward.
The album titled “Music for People Who Believe in Love” is one I find myself returning to frequently, especially while waiting for “Greetings from Your Hometown“. Whether you listen to it occasionally or play it on loop, it’s delightful to witness Joe Jonas achieving the solo acclaim he’s long earned.
