"Cool" is a song by American pop group the Jonas Brothers. It was released on April 5, 2019, through Republic Records as the second single off their fifth studio album, Happiness Begins (2019).[1] The group co-wrote the song with Casey Smith and its producers Ryan Tedder and Zach Skelton. "Cool" is a midtempo summer pop song that features "strums", "vocal processors" and "stomp-clap beats" in its instrumentation. Lyrically, the song makes several pop culture references.
Upon release, "Cool" received generally favourable reviews from music critics, who praised its nostalgic "feel-good" and "summer" vibes and a "sing-along" chorus. Commercially, the song debuted at number 27 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number 39 on the UK Singles Chart, in addition to reaching top 40 in charts of numerous territories including Canada, Hungary, Ireland, and Scotland. It was awarded with a gold certification from the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) and a platinum one from Music Canada.
A colorful retro-inspired 1980s Miami Vice styled music video, directed by Anthony Mandler was uploaded to the band's official YouTube channel on April 5, 2019, to accompany the song's release. To promote the song, Jonas Brothers performed "Cool" on Saturday Night Live and on the season finale of The Voice. It was also included in the set list of the band's Happiness Begins Tour (2019–2020).
