A performer since the age of seven (the age at which he joined the Broadway cast of Annie Get Your Gun), Nicholas made his songwriting debut in 2002, when a holiday tune he'd co-written with his father found its way onto a Broadway Christmas album. A contract with Columbia Records followed two years later. Nicholas began prepping for his solo career by writing material with his older brothers, Kevin and Joseph, who eventually climbed aboard as permanent partners. Nick's solo project thus blossomed into a full-fledged band, and the siblings aptly named themselves the Jonas Brothers.
It took several years for the Jonas Brothers to find an adoring audience. It's About Time, the band's 2006 debut, was a commercial flop, and Columbia Records dropped the group one year later. Signing with Hollywood Records in 2007, the band began attracting new fans -- most of them young and female -- by establishing a presence in the Disney world. They appeared on the network's television shows, earned their own series, starred in a made-for-TV movie with Disney starlet Demi Lovato, and sold close to two million copies of their self-titled sophomore album. They replicated that feat one year later with A Little Bit Longer and returned in 2009 with Lines, Vines and Trying Times. All of the albums featured heavy contributions from Nick, who not only led the songwriting process but also played a wide variety of instruments, from drums to keyboard to guitar.
Taking a rare break from the band, Nick Jonas began working with several other musicians on a side project in late 2009. Members from Prince's New Power Generation were recruited to join the lineup, including Michael Bland and Tommy Barbarella, and the group dubbed itself Nick Jonas & the Administration before making its debut in early 2010 with the album Who I Am. The record performed respectably, peaking at three on the U.S. charts on its way to sales of 151,000, but there were soon suggestions that Nick was planning to return to the Jonas Brothers fold. This didn't happen. A 2013 tour was scrapped just prior to its October launch and, soon afterward, the band split. Nick Jonas regrouped with a 2014 solo tour followed by the November release of an eponymous album. Over the course of 2014, Jonas gained momentum, generating the Top 10 single "Jealous," which also topped Billboard's dance charts, as did "Chains " and "Levels," a bonus track from 2015's Nick Jonas X2.
In the Summer of 2016, Jonas returned with a new full-length effort, Last Year Was Complicated, featuring production by Jason Evigan, Mattman & Robin, Sir Nolan, and others. Included on the album was "Close," a duet with Tove Lo, and "Bacon," featuring Ty Dolla $ign. The album debuted at number two on the Billboard 200. Also around this time, Jonas returned to acting, starring in the erotic thriller Careful What You Wish For and the fraternity hazing drama Goat. In 2017, he released the singles "Remember I Told You," featuring Anne-Marie and Mike Posner, and "Find You." Also that year, he collaborated with Nicki Minaj on the track "Bom Bidi Bom" off the Fifty Shades Darker soundtrack.

Nick Jonas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And let me see your heart upon your sleeve
Open up your soul, I want to know exactly what you need
Say all you want for Christmas is me
I know I got this thing upon me
I don't need no more expensive nonessential things
'Cause when I kiss your lips it feels like it is everything I need
So I'm gonna love you like, like it's always Christmas Eve
I'm gonna sacrifice a selfish part of me
'Cause when we're all alone and I hold you close
Everything I'll need
Say all you want for Christmas is me
This time of year we always get distracted (mmm)
Trying to fill up all the space under the tree
So let's take 'em back, we know exactly what we really need
Say all you want for Christmas is me
So I'm gonna love you like, like it's always Christmas Eve
I'm gonna sacrifice a selfish part of me
'Cause when we're all alone and I hold you close
Is everything I need
Say all you want for Christmas is me
You don't need to worry baby
'Cause I'm right here by you
And everyday would drive me crazy
If I lost you, mmm mmm mmm
So I'm gonna love you like it's always Christmas Eve
I'm gonna sacrifice a selfish part of me
'Cause when we're all alone and I hold you close
Is everything I'll need
Say all you want for Christmas
Say all you want for Christmas
Say all you want for Christmas
Say all you want
Is me

They urge their partner to reveal exactly what they want for Christmas, emphasizing that their presence is the most important thing.
The second verse of the song acknowledges the commercialization of Christmas and the pressure to purchase expensive and unnecessary gifts. But the singers emphasize the fact that love is all that really matters, and they will do whatever it takes to make their loved one happy. "So I'm gonna love you like, like it's always Christmas Eve. I'm gonna sacrifice a selfish part of me" shows that the singers are committed to cherishing their partner every day, not just on Christmas.
