Nick Jonas and Greyson Chance Go To Camp

(Buzznet) At the 7th Annual Grammy Camp, Nick Jonas and Greyson Chance, along with some other industry professionals, stopped by to offer campers their words of advice about the music industry. The guest professional day is part of the two week long camp held in Los Angles on the USC campus. High school students passionate about music, including producers, performers, promoters and journalists, got the chance to quiz the stars about their musical journey. Some even got the chance to sit down with the professionals in small groups to hear about their individual careers and answer additional questions.

Nick Jonas, not only 1/3 of the insanely successful Jonas Brothers, but now a producer for other artists sat down to talk one on one with performer and producer campers. He offered up advice and suggestions as campers played music that they had composed during their time at camp. Nick was very kind and chatted with group about becoming a producer, new artists he's working with and writing songs about others. "I think there's a song out there written about me," Nick explained. "I haven't taken offense to it." Could Nick be talking about Miley Cyrus' "7 Things?" "When I write songs about others, I usually tell them, like 'Hey, there's gonna be this song coming out and it's about you.' It usually doesn't go over so well."

Later that morning the campers headed to the master panel where they had the chance to quiz Nick, Steven and up and comer Greyson Chance. The conversation flew from social media, touring to inspiration and included some joking around.

Greyson admits he has had an "unusual experience" getting to this point in his career, but he's most certainly loving it. "I can tweet out a picture and suddenly millions of girls can see it." Greyson exclaimed while speaking about the value of social media, which was met by some laughter from Nick. "Millions of girls? Seems like he's got it all figured out." Nick retorted.

"I wish we could be British so we could win the Mercury Music Prize," She told Metro.co.uk. "There is an aspect of British culture that is very different to Americans. If Britons see something they don't understand or something that is challenging they walk toward it instead of running away. Britain did that with us.

"They saw this band of freaks and went, 'What is this all about?' When they got to know us, they liked us and found we are about a lot of the same things that they are about." more on this story

Singled Out: Finding Jupiter's Roses

Today Sarah Masimore from Finding Jupiter tells us about "Roses" from their brand new EP "io". Here is the story:

"Roses" was written in the midst of the most ridiculous lesbian drama you could ever imagine. You'll have to get me a bit drunk before I reveal all the juicy details, but I'll tell you this: it was filled with love, lies, tears, and multiple unfriendings on Facebook. I TOLD YOU - s*** got real.

I had just fallen for a girl like I had never fallen before. Not only was I madly in love, but for some strange reason she was madly in love with me too. Since lesbian communities are usually pretty small, chances are that anyone you start to date has dated someone else you know. Due to this complexity of lesbian communities, there was a ton of backlash in our group of friends and ex's once we started dating. It actually got really intense -- like reality TV intense. All I can tell you is that my heart rate never dropped below 120 that month.

The first verse and the choruses in "Roses" are a celebration of this incredible new love I had found. "Roses, oh, you know what I mean, pull me across to your sea." I felt like this amazing love wasjust rushing over me, and I couldn't get enough. The chorus embodies this sort of explosive love by dropping down in intensity at the beginning only to go all out musically a couple of measures later.

The second verse speaks to all the drama that ensued, and the blind, unabashed judgment I was getting from so many. The second verse was me trying to ignore all the haters and just embrace the best part of the situation – this beautiful person I now had in my life.

The bridge is chaotic – exactly how I felt at the time. Dean (guitar), Peter (bass), and Taylor (drums) embody this feeling so perfectly. Taylor is going crazy in his drum solo, while Dean builds the bridge to a breaking point with his ridiculous guitar solo. When the song hits its peak, Peter's signature bass line brings it back to a sort of anxious calm. Lyrically, the bridge ends with an understanding and acceptance of the insanity – a calm after the storm.

I finally came to a point where I understood that we were all just following our human instincts, whether it was hatred, envy, desire, or love. Like they say, "all is fair in love and war."

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album right here!
