"Close" is a song recorded by American singerNick Jonas from his third studio album,Last Year Was Complicated. The track features guest vocals from Swedish singer-songwriterTove Lo. It was released on March 25, 2016, by Island, Safehouse and Republic Records as the album's lead single. The song was written byTove Lo,Julia Michaels,Justin Tranter, and its producersMattias "Mattman" Larsson and Robin Fredriksson.

Background

[edit]

During a Twitter session, Jonas explained that the track is "about how I literally can't open up and be vulnerable with someone".[2]The melody of the song was released over the days before the release of the song, through several tweets.[3]

Composition

[edit]

The song is written in the key ofA major with a tempo of 120 beats per minute.[4]

Critical reception

[edit]

James Grebey ofSpin magazine called "Close" a "sultry" track and deeply personal.[2]Brittany Spanos ofRolling Stone called the song a sexy,steel-drum assisted single. Stephen Erlewine ofAllMusic wrote a positive review saying "'Close,' a duet with Tove Lo, is perhaps the best showcase for this aspect of Nick Jonas, but the entirety of Last Year Was Complicated walks a fine line between immaculately produced pop confection and personal confession."[5]

Live performances

[edit]

Jonas performed the song live with Tove Lo onSaturday Night Live on April 16, 2016.[6] On April 24, 2016, he performed the song during his 75-minute set at the New Orleans Jazz Fest.[7] He performed the song with Thomas Rhett andDanielle Bradbery for an episode ofCMT Crossroads.[8] On April 28, Jonas and Tove Lo performed the song onJimmy Kimmel Live!.[9] Jonas performed the song solo onThe Ellen DeGeneres Show on May 9, 2016.[10] He and Tove Lo performed "Close" live on May 22, 2016, at the2016 Billboard Music Awards. On June 10, he performed the song live on Today.[11]Jonas performed the song as a part of his setlist for theFuture Now Tour withDemi Lovato singing Lo's lyrics.[12] Jonas also performed the song live on German TV showGermany's Next Topmodel.[13] During the San Antonio show on October 18, 2025 as part ofJonas20: Greetings from Your Hometown Tour, Jonas performed the song live with songwriter Julia Michaels singing Lo's lyrics.[14]

Music video

[edit]

The music video was released the same day as the single and was directed byTim Erem.[1] The video depicts both singers unable to physically touch each other as they are continuously pulled away from the other. As their clothes are ripped away, the pair is able to finally get close. The more vulnerable the pair get, the closer they are able to get.[15][16]
