Isaac is the oldest brother of the music group Hanson.
This is from Jill: I just wanted to tell you that I noticed the same thing about Ike. Whenever he listens to what his brothers are saying, he always has a big smile on his face, as if he is so proud that they are his brothers. I noticed that when Tay was talking about how they used to sing a capella (in the TT&MON video) and Ike was just smiling and agreeing with everything Tay was saying. :)
This is from Robin: Isaac is just so great.I love him cause he sees the world in a whole different way it's amazing. He just looks at everything in a positive way. He's fantastic!!4>
This is from Monica: How I see IKE: He is the cool big brother who treats his siblings as equals. You never actually see him LEAD a situation, but gently guide the others, all the while being completely attentive to them. He is the great guy you knew or know in school; the one whom you wished saw you more than a friend...but never failed to flirt with you a bit. He is the best friend who lets you speak first and listens to every work; and when he replies, there is always fire in his eyes. He has a quiet beauty that steals your heart, just when you are not looking.
These thoughts are from "Born too soon!" When I look at Isaac Hanson, I see so many special things that I hardly know where to start. I could start with things like kindness, gentleness, sensitivity...but instead I think I'll talk about his sweetness. Isaac has such an incredible sweetness that it is indescribable. It's there in his eyes, in every picture, regardless of whether he is smiling or serious. You look into those eyes and you can't help but know that a very beautiful soul is looking back out at you.
Another thing that I love about Isaac is the way he always describes himself as being a "romantic." In fact, my favorite Isaac quote right now is "I'm a romantic fool--I always manage to get hurt." Bless him for not being afraid to reveal that he has a vulnerable side. Whenever I think of him saying that, I wish I could take him in my arms and tell him that noone will ever hurt him again, not if *I* have anything to say about it!
But the thing that amazes me most about him is how mature he is. He seems to completely lack the hangups and insecurities that most people (especially guys!) have at his age and comes across as being completely comfortable with who he is in a way that takes most people *many* more than 17 years to achieve. And it's not just because he's famous and successful. Plenty of people who are just as successful and much older than Isaac aren't nearly as secure in their sense of themselves as he seems to be. In fact, I have to admit that I find it hard to believe that he is only 17. He seems *much* older than that to me. I suppose being the oldest child in a large family accounts for some of this, because he's obviously always carried a lot of responsibility. But whatever the reason, he sometimes says such insightful things that I find myself going "Huh? A 17-year-old said THAT?"
This thought is from Kathleen:
I am attracted to his respect for everything and his compassion for his family and his music. A lot of people will try to make up their own fantasy prsonality about famous people, and when they realize it's not true they are disappointed with the celebrity. I think that the truth is much more special. I also think that Isaac Hanson is very special. He's very grown up, but also has a lot of fun doing it too! I am definately an Ike fan!
This is from Jessica who is from Kansas.
I just want to say that Ike is very sweet I mean you can just tell by the way he talks to people and his brothers. Ike is not my FAVORITE hanson but that doesn't mean I can't like him at all! I'm A Hanson Fan And Proud Of It.

This is from Becky in Tulsa:
When I watch Isaac on TV or something I get this weird feeling. Just the way he plays his music, it's beautiful! Also I've noticed after almost all of their performances when they stand there together he smiles this smile that looks like a 4 year old boy in a cady store.....he's just so happy. That look kind of even looks like a little kid right after they learn something new. You know how they get the look of pure happiness in their eyes. Thats a big reason why I like Isaac. I have a few friends who know Hanson(yes, know Hanson.....I live in Tulsa) but even with me living here and having friends who know them I still haven't meet them, and whats sad is that I probably will not ever meet them. But I think of it this way someone has to marry Isaac one of these days, and I wish that person the best of luck because very likely Isaac furture wife is reading this, and to even think of it that way blows my mind away. That and the fact that she'll be able to wake up every morning to her true love. Then again his future wife could be the person who typed this(I very likely doubt it.....but...) Well I guess I'll stop blabbing about nothing and let you people go back to the real world.
This just in from Zoe...
Some people think he's ugly (let's go beat them up right now!) but he seems like a great guy. Watch him in the video TTMON when Tay is explaining how they wrote MMMBop. Ike's face lights up just remembering it all. You could tell by that that he truely loves music. And he's funny and sophisticated. He's very protective of his family. I read that one time back in the day people were picking on Tay and giving him a nose bleed so Ike beat them up. I don't agree with violence, but he was just protecting his little bro. I admire that.
Insights from Monica:
There's something about Ike...as a musician, he is totally in control and down to business. In TTMON, he makes sure Zac and Taylor are in perfect harmony, even if they are just the slightest bit off. As a person, I think he has a really magnetic personality. Ike has a great sense of humor but he also has a very serious, deep side. It seems that family is a priority to him, and he is compassionate about others. He truly is a complete person.
These insightful comments are from Jean:
To sum up Isaac Hanson in just a few words...hmm . Well you have to give me two sections to play with here, the first being the mental side of him. he has such a respect for everyone he comes into conatct with, that it is TRULY flabbergasting!!!!!! I know of a few people that HAVE actually met him, and his graciousness to the fans and everyone he comes into contact with is such that once you've met him, you know that you've experienced a personality that is truly one in a milion. He's not afraid to admit his shortcomings, and he has a love and respect for his family and of life in general, that one wonders how such and old soul could inhabit his 17year old body. He is DEFINITELY wise beyond his years, and it shows in the class he has towards his craft, and his savvy in dealing with the press and public in general. I also admire the way he looks at and LISTENS TO his younger brothers, and I'm sure, to the rest of his family. Men like him don't come along but once in a GREAT WHILE, and when they do, you just KNOW something is special and completely unique about him, and that's why I care about him the way I do.
Now, I promise this will be shorter. PHYSICAL SECTION!!!!!! I love the way he has a style and a knack all his own, in the way he dresses, the way he acts, and just by being himself at all times. Great face, and I love the fact that I have never seen ANYONE on the planet that even resembles him, his looks are also one of a kind. I also love the way his hair gets these tiny curls around his temples when he sweats(saw 'em in Boston, wowowowowow)and to top off my observations, THOSE LONG LANKY NEVERENDING LEGS, WWOWOWOWOWOW particularly in the TV Guide pic with the suits on the couch, holy hotness!!!!!!!!! He also looks like, if you were ever hugged, I mean REALLY hugged, it would be the most wonderful place to be in he entire world(and MAN, wouldn't I and millions of others like to find THAT out)By the way, I love his big feet too!!!!!!!!!!
A Thought from Jen:
What can I say? Ike is just an all round great guy! Some don't like him because of his looks, but in my eyes, Isaac Hanson is an absolutely gorgeous creature, both inside and out. He possesses an inner beauty that not many people have, and he's as innocent, sweet, romantic, gentle and harmless as you can get. You can look into those liquid-brown eyes of his, and you'll see an angel staring right back at you. There's heaps more I can say, but for now, let's just say I LOVE IKE!!!
Why Megan from Missouri likes Ike:
My thoughts on Ike: I love Ike because of his attitude. One minute he can be zany then he can be serious. His impressions are so cute and the respect he has for his siblings is so admirable. He hasn't let popularity go to his head. Plus he is some definate eye candy.
These thoughts are from Snuffie:
Isaac is so sweet! He's just one of those big brotherly types that wouldn't mind if you plopped yourself down in the middle of the floor and asked him how he felt about laundry detergent. You just want to hug him! Everytime I see an interview, I see how patient he is with Zac and how he always lets Taylor interupt him. I think a lot of girls are drawn to his calm, nurturing personality. He's the kind of person that you want to come and hold you when life is at it's lowest. He's going to be a great father.
A comment from Christiana:
Isaac is the Hanson brother who puts the most emmotion into his music. If you have ever been to a tour concert, or any concert for that matter, have you ever noticed how much he gets into his music? When he has his piano solo on "More Than Anything", he closes his eyes and concentrates completely on what he is doing. It melts my heart. Also on "With You in Your Dreams", he does the same thing... closing his eyes and putting his all into it. When I look at the way he puts his heart into his music.... It makes me realize just how much music means to him. He's completely mesmerized by the songs he sings... and he mesmerizes everyone who listens. Ike is by far the one who puts the most emotion into his music. I have had the great honor of going to 9 of their performances and meeting them all once. Isaac never fails to talk to his fans in a respective manor. He always knows what to say.... weather it's something so sweet it makes u feel like putty, or if its just a friendly joke he has with you. Ike is seriously a great all around guy... someone I would love to be a best friend to, someone he could always turn to. He seems to keep a lot of his emotions bottled up inside.. and I would just love to know what he is always feeling.
This is from Sabrina!
I like Ike because he's so nice to his brothers unlike most people. He has a great voice and he's adorable. Usually you can't hear his voice but in Three Car Garage he is lead in about every song. Please post this because I really think Hanson is great.
This is from April in Colorado:
I believe that Ike has so much passion in him waiting to come out in song. He has such a wonderful voice, that is very mature for his age, and I wish that he could sing more by himself to let his voice shine. He is considerate torward his brothers and to those he meets. It is incredible to see that he is letting Tay and Zac shine also because they all work together and that is a wonderful thing that I hope will last for them. I just want to let him know, if he is reading this, that I am praying for him and that he always has a special place in my heart!
This is from Steph:
First off, let me get right down to the materialistic part: his looks. Isaac's physical appearance is by no means the most important or beautiful dimension of his existence, but alas! He's gorgeous! Isaac is much more masculine looking than Tay or Zac, and I love that. The first thing I ever noticed about Ike was his eyes. Gazing into the depths of his sensitive brown eyes can make any heart melt. If the eyes are truly the windows to the soul, then Isaac's soul is truly beautiful. His eyes betray the kind-hearted, good-humored soul within, despite all attempts to look tough for the camera (you know the pics where they're all scowling at the camera--what's up with that?). Ike's whole face just lights up whenever he smiles, and that smile certainly is contagious! His left eye kind of winks whenever he smiles. I find that very sexy. Also, the hair. I love the hair! I've always been drawn to guys with long hair, and Ike is no exception. His hair is a little bit wavy, and it looks good in a ponytail but even better when it's down and not pulled back. Ike sort of has a grunge look going on with his hair--very nice! He also has a great body. He's tall and thin, but you can tell Ike's packing some muscles. Have you ever really looked at Ike's hands? I have a thing for them. He has incredible, graceful hands. Just watch him play the guitar sometime, and you'll see what I mean. Ah, yes, the guitar. Isaac is a very talented individual. In fact, he partially inspired me to learn how to play acoustic guitar. I've been teaching myself, and I am astounded at what an incredible player he is! I struggle with some of the chords, but I see him do them with no sweat. He hasn't played for very long either! I know that he plays many types of guitar and piano proficiently. Ike's voice is absolutely incredible and so versatile! He can add deeper harmony or back vocals on any song. He can totally rock out on a song like "Run Rudolph Run," or he can melt your heart and bring tears to your eyes on songs like "At Christmas" or "More Than Anything." Ike has great personality! He can act absolutely insane and be cracking jokes one minute ("Hello, my name is Joe, and I will be your tour guide for today.") and then be completely serious and down-to-business the next. I like the way he can laugh at just about anything in life, even his own mistakes. That shows a lot of confidence. I love that Ike admits to being a hopeless romantic. I consider myself a hopeless romantic, so I like Ike all the more for this one. Ike just adores his siblings. Watch Isaac sometime when they're giving an interview or on TT&MON. You can see the adoration in his eyes and his expression when he watches them speak. He'll let Tay and Zac interrupt him all the time and let them do a lot of the talking. He's very dedicated to his family, and he takes on the responsibility of taking care of them. I saw a picture of him holding Zoe. *sigh* It was so precious! All in all, Ike is like the guy next door. You could have deep conversations with him about religion or politics, or you could have deep conversations with him about toilet paper! Isaac's the guy you want with you through all the good and bad times in your life because when you're down, he'd hold you and tell you everthing will be alright or just let you cry on his shoulder or try to fix everything and cheer you up. As for the good times, imagine a party with this guy! That would be a party to remember!!
Thoughts from Summer:
I think Ike has a deep respect for his brothers and what they have accomplished. He often moves out of the way for them in interviews so they can voice their opinions. The expression on his face looks as though he is thankful for and has an extreme interest in every single word his brothers say. But he is there to straighten them up, too. He is more business like and keeps the band together and doesn't lose his cool, even in the toughest situations. He is so put together, especially for an eighteen year old. I may only be fourteen talking like a thirty year old, but he amazes me every second.
