Nick Jonas' laurels know no bounds, with the singer having carved a niche for himself in his teen years by being the youngest member of the sibling pop music trio Jonas Brothers with his elder brothers Joe Jonas and Kevin Jonas. The actor then ventured out of the band, gaining paramount success with his hit singles like Jealous, Bacon, and Levels among others. The pop star made his solo album debut in 2002 and has since released four studio albums and 26 singles, which have been fan favourites.

As the actor clocks his 29th birthday on September 16, here's a look at his top five singles, every Nick Jonas fan grooves on.
