The Jonas Brothers are back in a big way, dropping their highly anticipated seventh studio album Greetings From Your Hometown. Released today, the new record doubles as a celebration of the band’s 20-year journey, packed with nostalgia and polished pop-rock hooks. But one track in particular has everybody talking: “Loved You Better,” a haunting duet with Australian singer-songwriter Dean Lewis. The emotional ballad quickly emerged as a standout on the album – and even the brothers themselves agree.
“There’s a song we did with Dean Lewis… probably my favorite ballad we’ve done in our last 5–6 albums,” Nick Jonas revealed, praising Lewis for contributing the heartfelt number. “Loved You Better” came to the trio through a unique collaboration: Lewis co-wrote the song and even held it back from his own project so the Jonas Brothers could make it theirs. The result is a soul-stirring breakup song that showcases soaring vocals from Joe and Dean over a plaintive melody. Alongside other guest features like Marshmello and rock band Switchfoot, the Dean Lewis duet helps make Greetings From Your Hometown a rich, personal album that has fans swooning and critics applauding the brothers’ growth.
