With this summer’s heat, not many of us would have a problem jumping into cold water, but more importantly, if you’re sinking, Justin Bieber will be there to save you. If you’ve been feeling those concert blues since his U.S. leg of the tour came to a close, his most recent release of "Cold Water" with Major Lazer will keep you, and Beliebers alike, calm and afloat.
If the beat doesn’t pull you in, I don’t know what will. With almost 2 million views on YouTube in the first day, it's clearly contagious.
“We all get lost sometimes, you know? That’s how we learn and how we grow.” - Justin Bieber
No matter what you think or what the press says about Justin Bieber, he is an icon sharing his inspiring and beautifully crafted music with the world. To preach such wisdom can only mean there must be compassion and knowledge in the beholder. When you've found an idol amongst a sea of stars, it's such a reward to hear and see what they create and the type of influence they can have on a person; even yourself.
When I went to the Purpose Tour, I met a 16-year-old Belieber named Haley waiting outside for a ticket with a sign that read, "Will sing a Justin song for a ticket." Understanding her extreme love for Bieber wouldn't come easy to a passerby, but once I understood the bonds made between fans based on our love for this Pop star, it just made sense to give her our extra ticket; our overpriced-but-irreplaceable piece of paper that would lead us all the way to our floor seats for my first Justin concert. It was a truly life-changing and unforgettable experience. And she got to experience the whole thing with us, making a girls dream come true and her wishes granted. That fourth ticket couldn't have gone to a more wonderful girl and devoted Justin Bieber fan.
As Justin grows and matures, his music, alongside his talent and experience, increases exponentially and more and more dreams come true!
I would encourage every one to give this new single a chance, as well as the Biebs, because after all, he is only human like the rest of us. Regardless of mistakes, we all deserve to be heard. Follow his lyrics, and listen for the candor and passion he delivers. I'm quite curious to discover who he may be singing about and what controversy his lyrics will bring!
