New Good Song: "Sorry," Justin Bieber 11.14.15

Here's a new good song: "Sorry" by Justin Bieber. This is a big milestone for Justin because it marks the first time he has ever released a good song. Prior to this, he sang one song that wasn't terrible, the recent "What Do You Mean," which was a nice track musically but was lyrically amateurish and did itself no favors with its cornball video. Now here's "Sorry," where things have finally all come together -- a well-written piece of music that's nicely suited to Justin's voice and age, elevated by atypical production and the risky but ultimately winning use of tropical rhythms. The whole package is a success and seems as authentic as it is catchy. And it's worth mentioning that this lyric video is outstanding. All the folks involved in this project deserve recognition, including Justin. Enjoy!
