A Little Bit Longer
Most people assumed that this song was about a breakup. It turns out, though, that it’s about Nick Jonas’ battle with type 1 diabetes. He claims that he penned the song in 20 minutes one day when his sugar was out of control. That’s when a few of the lyrics began to make sense. You might easily deduce the song’s deeper meaning and pick up on some of the details you missed the first time around.

Pumped Up Kicks
In the previous 10 years, you’ve probably danced to the Pumped Up Kicks song. The song is about an alienated adolescent who fantasizes about shooting down his school as a form of retaliation. The artist claims he intended to write from the perspective of a victim, but instead chose to enter the mind of the perpetrator. It’s supposed to be an anti-gun song, he claims. Some detractors, though, believed he was taking advantage of the situation.
