01. Mark My Words
https://youtu.be/m91sZZyeLlM?si=n-C8z6lyBNzwlbFv
Mark my words, that's all that I have
Mark my words, give you all I got
In every way I will
You're the only reason why
Oh I don't wanna live a lie
Mark my words
Mark my words
So you heard it all before
Falling in and out of trust
Trying to rekindle us
Only to lose yourself
But I won't let me lose you
And I won't let us just fade away
After all that we've been through
I'mma show you more than I ever could say
Mark my words, that's all that I have
Mark my words, give you all I got
In every way I will
You're the only reason why
Oh I don't wanna live a lie

02. I'll Show You
https://youtu.be/yLFQOW7yo4Y?si=smf67hrh3K_AePRN
My life is a movie and everyone's watching
So let's get to the good part and past all the nonsense
Sometimes it's hard to do the right thing
When the pressure's coming down like lightning
It's like they want me to be perfect
When they don't even know that I'm hurting
'Cause life's not easy, I'm not made out of steel
Don't forget that I'm human, don't forget that I'm real
Act like you know me, but you never will
But there's one thing that I know for sure
I'll show you
I'll show you
I'll show you
I'll show you
I've got to learn things, learn them the hard way
Got to see what it feels like, no matter what they say
Sometimes it's hard to do the right thing
When the pressure's coming down like lightning
It's like they want me to be perfect
When they don't even know that I'm hurting
'Cause life's not easy, I'm not made out of steel
Don't forget that I'm human, don't forget that I'm real
Act like you know me, but you never will
But there's one thing that I know for sure
I'll show you
I'll show you
I'll show you
I'll show you
'Cause life's not easy, I'm not made out of steel
Don't forget that I'm human, don't forget that I'm real
Act like you know me, but you never will
There's one thing that I know for sure
I'll show you
I'll show you

04. Sorry
https://youtu.be/v16qZcBllUU?si=qbstOOU2SlXT8BQX
You gotta go and get angry at all of my honesty
You know I try, but I don't do too well with apologies
I hope I don't run out of time, could someone call a referee?
'Cause I just need one more shot at forgiveness
I know you know that I made those mistakes maybe once or twice
And by once or twice, I mean maybe a couple of hundred times
So let me, oh, let me redeem, oh, redeem, oh, myself tonight
'Cause I just need one more shot at second chances
Yeah, is it too late now to say sorry?
'Cause I'm missing more than just your body
Oh, is it too late now to say sorry?
Yeah, I know that I let you down
Is it too late to say I'm sorry now?
I'm sorry, yeah
Sorry, yeah
Sorry
Yeah, I know that I let you down
Is it too late to say I'm sorry now?
I'll take every single piece of the blame if you want me to
But you know that there is no innocent one in this game for two
I'll go, I'll go and then you go, you go out and spill the truth
Can we both say the words and forget this?
Yeah, is it too late now to say sorry?
'Cause I'm missing more than just your body
Oh, is it too late now to say sorry?
Yeah, I know that I let you down
Is it too late to say I'm sorry now?
I'm not just tryna get you back on me (Oh, no, no)
'Cause I'm missing more than just your body (Your body)
Oh, is it too late now to say sorry?
Yeah, I know that I let you down
Is it too late to say I'm sorry now?
I'm sorry, yeah
Sorry, oh
Sorry
Yeah, I know that I let you down
Is it too late to say I'm sorry now?
I'm sorry, yeah
Sorry, oh
Sorry
Yeah, I know that I let you down
Is it too late to say I'm sorry now?
05. Love Yourself
https://youtu.be/p-IXgwqhfmg?si=z2Yz3vvKkbCbNJ1B
For all the times that you rained on my parade
And all the clubs you get in using my name
You think you broke my heart, oh, girl for goodness' sake
You think I'm cryin' on my own. Well, I ain't
And I didn't wanna write a song
'Cause I didn't want anyone thinking I still care. I don't
But you still hit my phone up
And, baby, I'll be movin' on
And I think you should be somethin' I don't wanna hold back
Maybe you should know that
My mama don't like you and she likes everyone
And I never like to admit that I was wrong
And I've been so caught up in my job
Didn't see what's going on
But now I know
I'm better sleeping on my own
'Cause if you like the way you look that much
Oh, baby, you should go and love yourself
And if you think that I'm still holdin' on to somethin'
You should go and love yourself
But when you told me that you hated my friends
The only problem was with you and not them
And every time you told me my opinion was wrong
And tried to make me forget where I came from
And I didn't wanna write a song
'Cause I didn't want anyone thinking I still care. I don't
But you still hit my phone up
And, baby, I'll be movin' on
And I think you should be somethin' I don't wanna hold back
Maybe you should know that
My mama don't like you and she likes everyone
And I never like to admit that I was wrong
And I've been so caught up in my job
Didn't see what's going on
But now I know
I'm better sleeping on my own
'Cause if you like the way you look that much
Oh, baby, you should go and love yourself
And if you think that I'm still holdin' on to somethin'
You should go and love yourself
For all the times that you made me feel small
I fell in love. Now I feel nothin' at all
I never felt so low and I was vulnerable
Was I a fool to let you break down my walls?
'Cause if you like the way you look that much
Oh, baby, you should go and love yourself
And if you think that I'm still holdin' on to somethin'
You should go and love yourself
'Cause if you like the way you look that much
Oh, baby, you should go and love yourself
And if you think (you think) that I'm (that I'm) still holdin' on (holdin' on) to somethin'
You should go and love yourself
06. Company
https://youtu.be/81oCkIJko5s?si=FtI9w5XCXHiKYNdt
Can we, we keep
Keep each other company?
Maybe we, can be
Be each other's company
Oh company
Let's end each other's lonely nights
Be each other's paradise
Need a picture for my frame
Someone to share my reign
Tell me what you wanna drink
I'll tell you what I got in mind
Oh, I don't know your name
But I feel like that's gonna change
You ain't gotta be my lover
For you to call me baby
Never been about no pressure
Ain't that serious
Can we, we keep
Keep each other company? (Oh)
Maybe we, can be
Be each other's company
Oh company
Oooooooooh
Oooooooooh
Oooooooooh
Oooooooooh
It ain't about the complications
I'm all about the elevation
We can keep it goin' up
Oh, don't miss out on us
Just wanna have a conversation
Forget about the obligations
Maybe we can stay in touch
Oh that ain't doin' too much
You ain't gotta be my lover
For me to call you baby
Never been about no pressure
Ain't that serious, no
Can we, we keep
Keep each other company?
Maybe we, can be
Be each other's company
Oh company
Yeah yeah
Oooooooooooh
Oooooooooooh

Maybe we, can be
Be each other's company
Oh company
07. No Pressure
https://youtu.be/0iJqyuOdaIc?si=9FrikHLU8qt5SfPx
[Justin Bieber:]
You ain't gotta answer none of my calls
I'm believing you'll pick up one day
I don't wanna add to your pain at all
I'm praying that time makes a change in your life
I'm realizing how much you made a change in my life
And I don't wanna spend it with nobody else
Hear me? Don't nobody deserve myself
Oh no, baby what I'm saying is
You ain't gotta make your mind up
You ain't gotta make your mind up right now
Right now, don't rush, no pressure
You ain't gotta make your mind up
You ain't gotta make your mind up right now
Calm down, don't rush, no pressure
Thought that you were in it for the paper
Never thought I'd take you serious
Now I need you, not a moment later
Losin' it, I'm so delirious
And I'ma put up a fight for it
Never give up a love like this
Finally I found someone
That can do me like no other
Talking to my conscience
I made a few mistakes
I did it to myself
I'm the only one to blame
I know you need a little while to believe again
To love again
You ain't gotta make your mind up
You ain't gotta make your mind up right now
Right now, don't rush, no pressure
You ain't gotta make your mind up
You ain't gotta make your mind up right now
I'll be waiting for you
Don't rush, no pressure
You ain't gotta make your mind up
You ain't gotta make your mind up right now
Right now, don't rush, no pressure
You ain't gotta make your mind up
You ain't gotta make your mind up right now
Don't rush, no pressure
Put my key in the ignition
Don't rush it girl, just stretch it out for me
I know that you ain't got no place to be
Girl I need your attention
And every time I see you make that face
I wanna love you all over the place
Don't do it, baby
Don't do it to me, no, no
[Big Sean:]
I know you don't wanna talk, right
We've been on and off like the cross lights
You heard I'm playin' with them hoes like I golf, right?
When I touch you, I get frostbite
Girl you're so cold, so cold, so cold
How we so young but livin' so old?
In the bed together but we sleepin' solo
That could drive you loco
You supposed to be my uno, Yoko Ono
Oh no, round two again
We've been fighting more than Ryu and Ken
Last time we argued eight straight days
I learned my lesson, I got straight As
And I know it's deeper than masseuses
Oh, you know I eat the cookie like I'm Lucious
Go ahead and take the time
But it's a waste of time if your waist ain't on mine
Think about it
[Justin Bieber:]
You ain't gotta make your mind up
(Make your mind up)
You ain't gotta make your mind up right now
(Right now)
Don't rush, no pressure
(There ain't no pressure)
You ain't gotta make your mind up
(No ohh)
You ain't gotta make your mind up right now
(I'll be waiting for you)
Don't rush, no pressure
(Baby don't rush)
You ain't gotta make your mind up
You ain't gotta make your mind up right now
Don't rush, no pressure
(You can take it easy now)
You ain't gotta make your mind up
You ain't gotta make your mind up right now
(And I'll still be right here)
Don't rush , no pressure
Say yeah, say yeah
You ain't gotta make your mind up now
Know I did you wrong
Let your heart heal
Don't rush, no pressure
08. No sense
https://youtu.be/lZ7G5SpZRd0?si=R60hU6hUa1PZ0Kap
[Justin Bieber:]
It don't make no sense 'less I'm doing it with you
It don't make no sense 'less I'm doing it with you
The sun don't set the same
'Less you're watching it go down with me
The bed won't sleep the same
'Less you're waking up in here with me
Oh, my heart's a vacant house
When you're gone away, it's so empty
And love don't make sense when it's empty (Oh no)
I've driven almost every car
It ain't the same when I'm without you
Been around a million stars
None of them shine brighter than you
The sky be so dark now without you
Yeah, ooh, baby
It don't make no sense
'Less I'm doing it with you
It don't make no sense
'Less I'm doing it with you
Oh been around the world
Ain't the same without you
It don't make no sense
'Less I'm doing it with you
Focus ain't the same
If the picture ain't got you in it
In every line my
Emotions ain't the same
If it ain't about you, I don't get it
Ever since the beginning now
You had that effect on me
All I wanna do is you, oh
I mean that so literally
Don't nobody go harder than you
All of the angels must be lonely now, without you, whoa
[Justin Bieber (Travis Scott):]
It don't make sense, no
It don't make no sense
'Less I'm doing it with you
'Less I'm doing it with you baby
It don't make no sense
'Less I'm doing it with you
I only want to hear your voice, yeah
Oh, been around the world
Ain't the same without you
Had to find out the hard way
It don't make sense, no
It don't make no sense
'Less I'm doing it with you
(Going way up, way up)
It don't make no sense
'Less I'm doing it with you
(Way up, way up, way up)
(Yeah, slow down stay up, stay up, stay up)
It don't make no sense
'Less I'm doing it with you
[Travis Scott:]
Time and time again I break a plan
Without you, girl I ain't the man
Could never be all I can be
You overstand, I'm incomplete
Apparently, gotta know I hate that
How I'm supposed to take that?
Boo'd up, missing all of that
Gotta be laying in that
Rolled up, put a flame to that
Thought by now you would have made it back
Be patient
Won't you pull up to me now?
Live forever young
It's amazing
I don't want to sleep 'less you at home
[Justin Bieber:]
It don't make sense, no
It don't make no sense
'Less I'm doing it with you
No, it don't make sense
It don't make no sense
'Less I'm doing it with you
No, it don't make sense
It don't make sense
It don't make no sense
'Less I'm doing it with you
(Alright, yeah, alright)
09. The Feeling
https://youtu.be/cqF5DnmeN08?si=aSNbX_1hNn0jEAHP
[Justin Bieber:]
You are to me
A part of me just like anatomy
You're pulling me
You're pulling me in like you're gravity
I'm notorious for thinking you're full of beautiful
Instead of hollow
Sugar on your lips, it starts to kill
Jagged like a pill, so hard to swallow
[Justin Bieber & Halsey:]
Am I in love with you? Am I in love with you?
Or am I in love with the feeling?
I'm trying to find the truth, trying to find the truth
But sometimes the heart is deceiving
Can't get out of my head and I need you to save me
If I am delusional then maybe I'm crazy
In love with you, am I in love with you?
Or am I in love with the feeling?
[Justin Bieber:]
You give to me
Everything, anything that I could dream
And at least that's what it seems
Could it be I don't know what's good for me?
I'm notorious for thinking you're full of beautiful
Instead of hollow
Sugar on your lips, it starts to kill
Jagged like a pill, so hard to swallow
[Justin Bieber & Halsey:]
Am I in love with you? Am I in love with you?
Or am I in love with the feeling?
I'm trying to find the truth, trying to find the truth
But sometimes the heart is deceiving
Can't get out of my head and I need you to save me
If I am delusional then maybe I'm crazy
In love with you, am I in love with you?
Or am I in love with the feeling?
[Justin Bieber:]
I'm sinking faster and faster
Between heaven and disaster
Sorry if I make you feel like
I'm standing on the borderline
[Justin Bieber & Halsey:]
Am I in love with you? Am I in love with you?
Or am I in love with the feeling?
I'm trying to find the truth, trying to find the truth
But sometimes the heart is deceiving
Can't get out of my head and I need you to save me
If I am delusional then maybe I'm crazy
In love with you, am I in love with you?
Or am I in love with the feeling?
10. Life is Worth Living
https://youtu.be/oeh1cBlI2wA?si=IcDp02dypKfxM3Qa
Ended up on a crossroad
Tried to figure out which way to go
It's like you're stuck on a treadmill
Running in the same place
You got your hazard lights on now
Hoping that somebody would slow down
Praying for a miracle
Ooh show your grace
Had a couple dollars and a quarter tank of gas
With a long journey ahead
Seen a truck pull over
God sent an angel to help you out
He gave you direction
Showed you how to read a map
For the long journey ahead
Said it ain't over
Oh, even in the midst of doubt
Life is worth living
Life is worth living, so live another day
The meaning of forgiveness
People make mistakes, doesn't mean you have to give in
Life is worth living again
Relationship on a ski slope
Avalanche comin' down slow
Do we have enough time to salvage this love?
Feels like a blizzard in April
Cause my heart, it's just that cold
Skating on thin ice
But it's strong enough to hold us up
Seen her scream and holler
Put us both on blast
Tearing each other down
When I thought it was over
God sent in an angel to help us out
He gave us direction, showed us how to make it last
For that long journey ahead
Said it ain't ever over
Oh, even in the midst of doubt
Life is worth living
Life is worth living, so live another day
The meaning of forgiveness
People make mistakes, doesn't mean you have to give in
Life is worth living again
Life is worth living again
What I get from my reflection
Is a difference in perception?
From what the world may see
They tried to crucify me
I ain't perfect, won't deny
My reputation's on the line
So I'm working on a better me
Life is worth living
Life is worth living, so live another day
The meaning of forgiveness
People make mistakes
Only God can judge me
Life is worth living again
Another day
Life is worth living again

Now I’m all alone and my joys turned to moping
Tell me, where are you now that I need you?

So where are you now that I need you?

Where are you now that I need you?
Where are you now that I need you?

To keep you warm
I showed you the game everybody else was playing, that's for sure
And I was on my knees when nobody else was praying, oh Lord
Where are you now that I need you?
Where are you now that I need you?
I need you (the) I need you

We're the inspiration
Do you believe enough to die for it?
Who's got the heart? Who's got it?
Whose heart is the biggest?
Wear it on your sleeve
Bet we can make a difference
Who's got the heart? Who's got it?
Whose heart is the biggest?
Wear it on your sleeve
Bet we can make a difference
Bet we can make a difference
Oh yeah
Who's got the heart?
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

Feeling like I'm breathing my last breath
Feeling like I'm walking my last steps
Look at all of these tears I've wept
Look at all the promises that I've kept
I put my all into your hands
Here's my soul to keep
I let you in with all that I can
You're not hard to reach
And you bless me with the best gift
That I've ever known
You give me purpose
Yeah, you've given me purpose
Thinking my journey's come to an end
Sending out a farewell to my friends, for inner peace
Ask you to forgive me for my sins, oh would you please?
I'm more than grateful for the time we spent, my spirit's at ease
I put my heart into your hands
Learn the lessons you teach
No matter when, wherever I am
You're not hard to reach
And you've given me the best gift
That I've ever known
You give me purpose everyday
You give me purpose in every way
Oh, you are my everything
Oh, you are my everything
[Spoken:]
I don't know if this is wrong, because someone else is telling me that it's wrong. But I feel this so let me just like try my best not to let this happen again. We weren't necessarily put in the best position to make the best decisions
You can't be hard on yourself for it, these are the cards you were given so you have to understand that's not who you are. You know you're trying to be the best you can be, but that's all you can do. If you don't give it all you got, you're only cheating yourself give it all you got but if it ends up happening, it ends up happening
That's what happening with me, it's like "God, I'm giving it all I've got, sometimes I'm weak and I'm going to do it." And it's like I'm not giving myself grace, I'm just like understanding that's how it is
RATING
팝 음악 느낌을 유지하면서, EDM, R&B, 그리고 팝 발라드 요소를 접목시킨 독특한하고 광범위한 앨범입니다.
앨범의 음악적 구성은 주로 EDM 프로듀서들의 참여로 강력한 일렉트로닉 사운드가 돋보입니다. 스크릴렉스, 디플로, 그리고 포우스트와 같은 프로듀서들이 참여한 트랙들은 팝과 댄스 음악의 경계를 허물며 새로운 음악적 실험을 시도했습니다.
예를 들어, "Where Are Ü Now"는 EDM과 발라드의 절묘한 결합으로 혁신적인 사운드를 창출하며, Bieber의 보컬은 감성적인 메시지를 전달하는 동시에 트랙의 에너지를 유지하는 것 같아요.
보컬 스타일 역시 성숙해졌습니다. 이전의 곡들과 달리, Purpose에서는 감성적이고 섬세한 보컬이 더욱 부각되며, 청중과의 감정적 연결을 강화하는 데 중점을 둡니다. Love Yourself에서는 미니멀한 기타 사운드에 나지막한 보컬이 더해져 곡의 메시지를 직설적으로 전달하고, "Sorry"에서는 경쾌한 리듬과 함께 사과의 감정을 효과적으로 표현합니다.
앨범의 타이틀 트랙인 "Purpose"는 Bieber가 겪은 삶의 변화, 그가 찾은 새로운 방향성을 담고 있으며, 신에 대한 헌신과 자신의 실수를 인정하고 반성하는 메시지를 전달합니다. 이는 앨범 전체에 걸쳐 Bieber가 성숙해가는 과정을 음악적으로 그려내고 있음을 보여줍니다.
또한, "Mark My Words"나 "I’ll Show You"같은 트랙들은 자신의 삶과 명성에 대한 내적 갈등을 솔직하게 드러냅니다.
이 당시 저스틴 비버가 욕을 하도 먹을 때라 감정이입이 되네요 하하..
이 당시 EDM과 팝의 조화를 이룬 사운드는 비버의 커리어에 새로운 차원을 더했습니다. Purpose는 전통적인 팝 음악에서 벗어나 대담한 실험을 시도하면서도 대중성을 유지한 앨범입니다. 특히 Skrillex와 Diplo의 프로듀싱은 앨범의 사운드적 다양성을 크게 확장시켰습니다.
앨범 전체에 걸쳐 Bieber는 자신의 과오를 인정하고 이를 통해 배우고 성장하는 과정을 솔직하게 담아내고 있습니다. 이는 그가 단순한 팝스타가 아닌, 자기 성찰과 영적인 성장을 이룬 아티스트로 나아가는 모습을 보여줍니다. 전 이 때 셀레나와 저스틴 비버의 서사와 앨범이 너무 드라마같아서 엄청 찾아봤던 기억이 있네요.
정말 좋은 앨범이고 다양한 장르의 시도를 통해 앨범의 음악적 스펙트럼은 넓지만, 일부 트랙들 사이의 연결성이 약하게 느껴질 수 있습니다. 여러 프로듀서의 참여로 인해 곡 간의 분위기 전환이 다소 급격하고, 이는 앨범의 통일성을 해칠 수 있는 요소로 작용합니다. 저는 앨범의 통일성을 생각보다 중요하게 생각해서 이런 점은 좀 아쉽네요.
내용 자체를 알고 보면 이해가 되지만 표현하는 방법에서 가사적 깊이가 좀 부족한 것 같아요. 일부 트랙의 가사는 비교적 직설적이고 단순하며, 반복적인 테마가 나타나더라고요. 이는 곡의 감정적인 깊이를 방해하고, 청취자에게 다소 피상적으로 다가갈 수 있는 부분입니다.
그래도 전체적으로는 그가 아티스트로서 진화하는 모습을 훌륭하게 담아낸 작품입니다.
나왔을 때부터 꽤나 최근까지 들었던 앨범이에요.
