I feel like that just proved White Hinterland's accusation more than disproved it. Like, if all it takes is 4 semitones down and then twelve semitones back up to get from the a cappella demo to the final key, who is to say you didn't do it the opposite way and think 'oh, I love that riff, let's loop it, but also bring it down to a lower key and work it into the hook as well?' It's such a specific and unique sequence of notes and sound - said uniqueness is what made Sorry stand out, after all - I don't know how they can chalk that up to mere coincidence. I am willing to take a leap of faith and say that maybe only one or two people are responsible for stealing that idea and the other song writers and producers were unaware of it, but unfortunately there's pretty much no such thing as several liability when it comes to a suit for copyright infringement. Ring the Bell is a pretty cool song, by the way.

Ehhhh. The video kinda of convinced me. Something like a riff is hard to sell to me. In the context of the verse from Sorry, it's an anonymous run. Although, maybe they heard the other song and was inspired to pitch it up and loop it. I guess that's plausible. Every scenario is plausible. I'm not really convinced conclusively either way I suppose. I'm backtracking and rambling now.

I thought they announced a video for "Company". What ever happened with that or was it fake? Justin can't even put on shoes for a nature walk. I doubt he is going to commission any more videos since the Dance versions are bringing in a billion and below views.

If we happen to get another single out of this era, I think they should go with 'I'll Show You'. Pretty much summarizes his life right now.

Salty that they let The Feeling go to waste.

The Feeling was indeed an opportunity for both Justin and Halsey, so I am pissed as well. As for Sorrygate, I am #TeamBieber.

Not confirmed but Been You is apparently the next single:
Great choice if true. Perfect for summer unlike The Feeling. There's no dance video or anything for this so he would have to release a proper music video and it's a deluxe track so it probably feels fresher than the other tracks to the general public.

"Been You" screams album track to me - just like Company.

"Been You" is catchy and summery and could have easily ridden the momentum train into smash territory, but at this point, I don't see it doing much unless there's going to be work put in. "The Feeling" or "No Sense" are probably the only 'effortless' options left.

This actually happened a few weeks ago, but Justin reclaimed his throne as Queen Of Youtube by becoming the first artist to have three videos with over one billion views on Youtube.
At this point, it will be a three way see-saw between Katy, Taylor, and Justin for the title of most videos with over 1 billion views.

At this point, it will be a three way see-saw between Katy, Taylor, and Justin for the title of most videos with over 1 billion views. Seriosly? That sounds interesting! :) But why not the King? :) I read somewhere a thought that Justin's videos are the most popular on Youtube but also the most hatred... But personally I really don't understand why so many people don't like him Anyway it wasn't so understandable a few years ago but later all that bad articles about Justin's behaviour appeared and if that's true, I can understand why some people don't respect him Also the behavior changed in a bad way but not the same with the style :) I really like new Justin's style, after looking through these photos for example I think that this "adult" style fits him much more than the previous teenage ones :) One of my favourite photos from the "new era", he looks here sooo cool, reminds me also Gerard Way from MCR a few years ago :)) Attachment Deleted

Interesting they released this video now. Any chance of a relaunch for the song at radio? I don't think it's a good idea, but right now he's got nothing going on but the rent.

Just polishing this off and going back to it. Yup. Still a modern day pop/urban hybrid album. That will never change, as much as he acts a fool.
These angelic vocals mixed with that hype beat in No Sense is just...no words.

It's definitely a great album. And I saw on ATRL that it's at roughly 3.5M including SEA/TEA.

Are we ever getting a fifth single from this album? I know "Company" underperformed majorly and "Love Yourself" is still having crazy staying power, but there's still a ton of hit potential on this album. "No Pressure" and "The Feeling" need to be singles. <33

In the long run, rush-releasing all of these singles ended up working out for Bieber evidenced by his three #1's. On the downside, this whole era seems kind of short, don't it?

Crazy that Bieber is bigger than ever and there's no summer single, right?!

Maybe they are banking on his song with Major Lazer to be his summer single.

Maybe they should just release Purpose as the final single. It would be pretty poignant and appropriate at this time, even if it sounds like a goodbye to the industry or...suicide note. I did fall in love with it because it shows versatility after all of the banger hits he released (well, except Company.)

Speaking of that song, he recently got mad at a fan for correcting him when singing the lyrics wrong. The glare.

I need to see that glare but yeah, I wouldn't rant some random kid correcting me either. He wrote the song. He can sing whatever lyrics he wants.
