When people compare the Jonas Brothers to Hanson, why is it always negative?

Question

I personally love Hanson, they are a cool band.

So why does everybody compare them and the Jonas brothers.

Answer 1

They fell out of the spotlight. Not known to many anymore.

Just like the Jonas Bros....they are today's "thing". Soon enough everyone will grow out of them like thye did Hanson.

Answer 2

i have no idea, but i love jb and i hate it when my parents hate on them..i have posters of them in my room and my dad comes in and is like why do you have ethnic hanson on your wall??

its soo annoying

Answer 3

It's not always negative.. most of the time it is.. but not always!

They're different in a lot of ways, but because they're 3 brothers who are a pop group, they're just automatically linked to Hanson.

I am a huge Hanson fan [11 years and counting!!], but also like the JoBros, so I dont have anything bad to say about them..

The fact that most people know the Jonas Brothers from Disney makes them say things such as "they were put together, and became famous overnight".. while there are many JB fans that will say they've been with them since the beginning..way before Disney. It's not that everyone that negatively compares them doesn't like them, it's that Hanson has been a band for yeeeears, before 1997 when they released MMMBop, and have always played all the instruments themselves, written all the songs themselves, and are just a very real band. They weren't a fabricated one [not saying Jonas is!]. The fact that 11 years after their initial success, they're still making music and selling out shows, is amazing. They split from their major label [IDJ] and began to produce themselves on their own label [3CG Records], which gained them a lot of respect. They're all about the music, not about the fame that comes with it. Which I think is a big difference.. It seems like JB loves the fame, [some would say more than the music]. I'm sure their hearts are in the right place, but because of how they're being delivered [via Disney..] they're taken as a joke to people who are older than like 12. Hanson is just so amazing, and honestly JB doesn't even compare to them.. But they're both great bands, in different ways.

and on that note; i just want to say that people need to realize that Hanson isn't just 'MMMBop'.. that was 11 years ago. and before you diss them, listen to them. They are not the same long blonde  haired/bubble gum pop/MMMBop boys that [most of] you remember!

They have grown up :)

Answer 4

because hanson didnt make it very long- i like hanson too but they didnt get the spotlight very long then u just stopped hearing about them!!!

Answer 5

The Jonas Brothers are gonna be eated by a Big Whale like their grandfather.

Answer 6

Both of their songs are pop rock and both of them are all brothers in a band.

Answer 7

It's not always negative. I grew up loving Hanson. They were my first band that I ever loved and still do! The first time I heard the Jonas Brothers was in 2004 and they were amazing and still are. The fact is they get compared to Hanson because they are three brothers who write and play their own songs. Each are amazing, but in different ways. Hanson has been around since before 1997 when MMMBop came out. They are still around today playing sold out shows. They have grown alot and their sound is different. I can't help to love Hanson, but the Jonas Brothers are not far behind. I love the messages they send out to people and I love how down to earth they are. Peopld reallyl need to stop judging both groups and remember its about the music.  

Answer 8

Answer 10

well lets see they both

-have a group of three brothers

-they have a pop rock sound

-they are heartthrobs

and i think they campare them negatively because hanson was really big just like the jonas brothers and now you never hear about them and thats what they think the jonas brothers are going to end up like

love,

a huge jonas brothers fan

Answer 11

most people don't think that

the jonas brothers will last very

long... well they're wrong!!!

hanson was a great band but

once all their fans got over them,

it was like... "where are they now??"

hopefully that won't happen to

the jonas brothers

but yeah that's why they make it

negative and stuff.

Answer 12

they both suck! they're both three "cute" guys with stupid poppy music that got fifteen minutes of fame. you wonder why the jonas brothers have made like three albums in a year? it's beause they know their gonna be too old in like two years and 12 year old girls will no longer like them.  

Answer 13

I don't understand it either. I guess the fact that they are a band of brothers is a connection. I'm not trying to bash on Hanson but their most popular song was hmmbop or something like that, but the Jonas Brothers come out with HIT AFTER HIT AFTER HIT. They didn't become famous OVERNIGHT either, some people don't even know about their first cd (It's About Time) they were with Columbia Records first but got dropped and they didn't even start being a band of brothers, it was supposed to be Nick's solo career and they were just helping him get started but the president of Columbia saw their potential and signed them all, after they got dropped Hollywood Records signed them and since they are partly owned by Disney (because Disney practically owns EVERYTHING) they got the boost they needed to get their music out there.... so if you REALLY think about it, they are not really alike other thant the brothers thing

Answer 14

Because Hanson is a group of three brothers that were HUGE & Jonas Brothers are a group of three brothers who are the hugest trio of brothers since Hanson.
