"As Long as You Love Me" is a song by Canadian recording artist Justin Bieber, from his third studio album, ''Believe'' (2012). The track features American rapper Big Sean. It was written by both artists with Nasri Atweh, and was produced by Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins and Andre Lindal. It was first released on June 11, 2012, as a promotional single from the album, and one month later it was released as the album's second single. The song has since charted in the United Kingdom, first at number thirty as a promotional single with first-week sales of 11,598, and then after being released as a single it improved its position on the UK Singles Chart, reaching number 22.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.musicweek.com/story.asp?sectioncode=1&storycode=1049907&c=1 )〕 On ''Billboard''s Rhythmic Airplay Chart, the single reached number one, giving Bieber his first number one single on an American airplay music chart.〔(from Billboard Top 40 Update (October 8, 2012) )〕 Despite its peak at no. 6, it is currently his biggest hit on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100〔()〕 due to its longevity in the top 20 from strong radio airplay. It also reached the number one position on ''Billboard''s Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart, making Bieber the fifth Canadian artist to reach that position after Martin Solveig featuring Dragonette's "Hello" in 2011.〔(from Billboard Top 40 Update (October 22, 2012) )〕 The song has sold 2,240,000 copies in the US as December 2012. The music video features actor Michael Madsen. == Background and release == In late 2011, Bieber confirmed to radio network Capital FM that he was recording material for his third studio album, which was originally going to be released in early 2012. He later spoke to MTV News and revealed that ''Believe'' would surprise people in different ways, since it musically is a departure from his previous works. While Bieber has said that he wants his next release to recall Justin Timberlake's ''Future Sex/Love Sounds'' sonically, in an interview with V magazine, he noted that what he'll be singing is a bit more PG than the topics Timberlake covered on that album.
After releasing "Boyfriend" as the lead single, Bieber announced that he will release promotional singles to promote ''Believe''. The first promotional single "Die in Your Arms" was released to iTunes on May 29, 2012. The second "All Around The World" was released on iTunes on June 4, 2012.〔 "As Long as You Love Me" was released on June 11, 2012, as the third and final promotional single.〔 The cover art for "As Long as You Love Me" shows Bieber perched on a wooden stool, holding an acoustic guitar. Sia Nicole of "Idolator expressed dissatisfaction with the cover, saying "It’s false advertising for the high-fidelity track that has nary a strum within earshot."〔 On June 13, Bieber shared a clip of the recording process for "As Long As You Love Me." The video shows Bieber with his signature swooped bangs, in the studio recording and laying down the vocals on the song. A slightly shorter version of the song, without Big Sean's rap verse, with Bieber singing new lines, known as the 'international version' appeared online in August, 2012.〔 It was released in full quality October 23, 2012. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「As Long as You Love Me (Justin Bieber song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
