Английская Википедия:Holy (Justin Bieber song)
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox song "Holy" is a song by Canadian singer Justin Bieber, featuring vocals from American rapper Chance the Rapper.[1] It was released on September 18, 2020, as the lead single off Bieber's sixth studio album, Justice (2021).[2][3] "Holy" is a pop song with elements of gospel.[4][5] Billboard named it the 41st best song of 2020.[6] The acoustic version was released on November 6, 2020. The official music video for the song was released on September 18, 2020, and features Bieber as a laid-off oil worker and his partner being helped by a charitable soldier.
Background
Bieber's fifth studio album Changes was released on February 14, 2020. On September 15, 2020, Bieber tweeted that his new single "Holy" would be released in a few days to signify his next musical "era".[7] It has been speculated that the song is about Bieber's love for his wife Hailey Bieber and his love of God.[8] "Holy" discusses themes of loyalty and faith, with The New York Times calling it "devotional R&B".[9]
Bieber and Chance had previously worked on several songs together, with "Holy" marking their fifth collaboration.[3] In terms of the lyrical content, both Bieber and Chance are Christians as well as songwriter Jon Bellion.
Jon Bellion earlier performed it at a VIP concert event saying that it will be released later in the year. Bellion's fans would begin to beg for it and eventually get it released by Bieber and Chance The Rapper, whom Jon would work with knowing they would reach a broader audience and more ears overall.[4]Шаблон:Failed verification
Composition
"Holy" is a pop song,[10] with gospel elements.[11] The song composed in G-flat major with a tempo of 88 beats per minute.[12]
Release and promotion
Bieber performed a live version of the song on Saturday Night Live on October 17, 2020.[13] He performed the song again at the 2020 People's Choice Awards in November.[1]
The acoustic version of the song was released on November 6.[14]
A charity version of the song was released on December 18. This version featured the Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Choir, who had got to the top of the UK Christmas singles chart in 2015 with their charity release "A Bridge over You", a chart which saw Bieber at number two with "Love Yourself". "Holy" was an early contender for the 2020 UK Christmas number one in the UK.[15][16][17] However, when the new version was released on 18 December 2020, it still had a credit for Chance the Rapper, like the original version which first entered the UK chart on 25 September 2020.[18] As the new record was seen as just a remix,[19] "Holy" ended up at Number 41 in the Christmas chart with 17,594 sales, after being classed as per the original release with a lower chart ratio.[20][21]
Critical reception
NME rated the song 3/5 stars, and drew similarities to Kanye West's gospel music.[22] Stereogum criticized the song's bland lyrics and execution, writing, "Being madly in love with your spouse is good; it’s just that the Justin Bieber songs about being madly in love with your spouse are bad."[4]
