Leaving this comment here so that whenever someone likes this comment i come back to this song.

i think justin sounds way better as an r&b singer rather than a pop singer

This still has me in a chokehold. I remember being 15 and obsessed with this

Why did the world sleep on journals

This album was so underrated in my opinion

One of his best albums in my opinion

THIS IS HIS MOST UNDERRATED WORK OF ALL TIME. I have not heard anything more beautiful, pure and progressive for his time. This should have won Grammys and shit. I have never been more disappointed about a response to music.

Justin need to do this R&B type ish again 🔥💯☝🏾

I remember him releasing a music every monday and I was so exited because I knew this one was gonna be on my birthday, And when it came out and I heard "Happy Birthday" at the start I just couldn't believe it, I replayed it so many times to make sure it wasn't just my imagination. What a beautiful gift

The fact the UKposts pause button fits into the pause button on the album makes this song so much better.

I remember when he dropped this song on Music Mondays and everyone flipped tf out because he was finally making sensual music lmfaoooo ughhhh fuck this whole album so fire bro

Me still listening this song 2020 😜

Journals>Purpose This r&b style fits him much better

I remember when every morning he realised a new song from this album heh good times

2019 missing

"don't let this go to your head, but you're the best I've ever had", "holding back the faces I would make", "I try to maintain, so don't mind if I turn away". 🥵🥵 Is it getting hot in here?!

I NEED R&BIEBER AGAIN!

That moment when you found out Justin really grew up I did not know this was Justin Bieber lol this is the best song he has ever had in his life and I mean that

This Justin needs to come back😭

Who else felt some type of way listening to this 😂😂❤️🥰???

I played this song around a girl I liked............she ended up spending the night, thanks JB u finally let your music grow with u

Justin was always interested in RnB, and personally this genre of music suits him. You can hear his passion compared to any other song.

This is his most slept on album

One of the most underrated music ever made!

Petition to get Justin to write more r&b music?

the pause sign lines up perfectly :D

Never thought about how dirty this song was 😂

Anyone else listening to journals just patiently waiting for Bieber 2020 Album??

The vocals on this track are outstanding.

this song, this whole album, needs more recognition. so underrated.❤

I had no business singing this song when I was younger LMAOO

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JUSTIN🥳🎉🎊🎈!!!!!

Justin is freaking 19 years old! He's an adult! He can do whatever the hell he wants and people need to stop saying 'the old Justin' there is NO old Justin. This is still Justin Bieber he didn't change, he matured.

I need to stop listening to this before I die oh the sexy voice is killing me just listen to his vocalizing who else has dreams about him at night?

Remembering how crazy i would get every Monday, enjoying every one of his personalities and songs, see him evolve to what he is, this album is one i’ll stick with until i grow old. i really miss this era 😭

I love all Justin Biebers songs. Thats why hes my all time favorite singer. But this song Hold Tight, my all time favorite song. I love singing along to it. Its the way he sings it with such soul. It's a masterpiece and sounds amazing the way he sings it. Like no other.

Seriously no one is going to replace justin no matter what.

I personally prefer this album to the new one.

Journals deserves the hype. PERIOD. WAITING EVERY Monday for new song was so worth it

This EP literally made up the soundtrack to my College experience. Every time I hear the intro of 'Heartbreaker', the funky groove of 'Rollercoaster', the chorus of 'Hold Tight' or the nostalgic 'Swap It Out' I almost get into tears. If I close my eyes I think of walking through Boulder campus with my headphones in, fresh snow covering the ground and tree branches, studying for my exams, working out at the rec center, getting dressed to go to a party. Justin, thank you for making the songs that will bring me back to some of the greatest times of my life growing up- leaving home for the first time and becoming a young adult.

This music is so so sexy

I think that "Journals" didn't get that much of a credit which it deserves . I have never stopped listening to "Bad Day", "Hold Tight" , "All That Matters" , "Heartbreaker" and "Confident" ,they are still my fav songs of JB especially Hold Tight

Happy birthday They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go (Lips won't let me go, lips won't let me go, oh) They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go Don't let this go to your head But you're the best, I've ever had Not to mention That thing is swollen You got me oh so in a trance Something like a Ziploc, but a lip lock Want you wrapped around my arm like a wrist watch Oh, so hard walking out Got me stuck like crazy glue, ooh They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go (Lips won't let me go, lips won't let me go, oh) They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go Got me tossing, turning in the bed Your place is where I rather be instead You don't know your strength Missing you is like adrenaline Oh, when you got me in a gridlock What a great spot Yeah, that turned up kind of love and it just won't stop No, so hard walking out Got me stuck like crazy glue, ooh babe They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go (Lips won't let me go, lips won't let me go, oh) They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go, no babay Holding back the faces I would make I'm a fan and you're the rock star Making it hard on me Visualize a monster 'Cause you're too bad for me Shot that arrow, I'm hit Need you right near me Trying to maintain, so don't mind if I turn away (no, no) I try to maintain, so don't mind if I turn away They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go (Lips won't let me go, lips won't let me go, oh) They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go

Everyone saying they want this justin back or bizzle....i agree that this music was good and maybe to make some more tracls like this but o dont want the justin during this time to come back...he was so hurt and in pain, lost and not himself. He wasnt in a good spot mentally. I love him now...better place and healthy

He killed this song , amazing.

This MANS SHOULD DO THAT R&b trap music💯💯💯💯💯

Tbh the whole album is underrated

who's still listening to this masterpiece in 2023? 💜

I can't believe this is the first justin beiber song....that I like 😨😨😨

This song is so underrated

Here during quarantine?😩

Light skin Justin needs to make a comeback

This the type of songs that will make you grind out of nowhere

Justin killed this beat

It's 2019 and it's my first time hearing this song and man it's 🔥....

How is here after Justin say he gonna do live for journals

this is actually a good song by bieber and it's not even that popular

I always said from when he first came out that he was gonna grow up and come back and slap all his haters in the face with a quality R&B album!

What álbum is better? Journals: Like👍 Purpose: Comment👌

2024 Anybody ❤❤❤

Lord this song made me just turn into a complete stripper in my kitchen outta no where. 🤦🏻‍♀️

His vocals are really chilling.

Justin is forever a king of pop

2023 baby!!! This album still is the shit!!

I dont know how's that possible but I've just now understood that the happiest times in my life were the same times when Believe album was released. Then the worst times in my life were the same times when Journals was released. And when I got started to get over those hard times, Purpose was released. Feels like the timing in mine and Justins life is just the same, he makes perfect songs in the perfect time for me

this album is amazing. I use to blast it all the time in my car and let the whole world hear it

now justin is getting married :( ny first love broke my heart for the first time

Every birthday, every birthday They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go (Lips won't let me go, lips won't let me go, oh) They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go Don't let this go to your head But you're the best, I've ever had Not to mention That thing is swollen You got me oh so in a trance Something like a Ziploc, but a lip lock Want you wrapped around my arm like a wrist watch Oh, so hard walking out Got me stuck like crazy glue, ooh They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go (Lips won't let me go, lips won't let me go, oh) They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go Got me tossing, turning in the bed Your place is where I rather be instead You don't know your strength Missing you is like adrenaline Oh, when you got me in a gridlock What a great spot Yeah, that turned up kind of love and it just won't stop No, so hard walking out Got me stuck like crazy glue, ooh babe They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go (Lips won't let me go, lips won't let me go, oh) They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go, no babay Holding back the faces I would make I'm a fan and you're the rock star Making it hard on me Visualize a monster 'Cause you're too bad for me Shot that arrow, I'm hit Need you right near me Trying to maintain, so don't mind if I turn away (no, no) I try to maintain, so don't mind if I turn away They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go (Lips won't let me go, lips won't let me go, oh) They hold on tight Yeah, they hold on tight Ooh, they hold on tight Them lips won't let me go

Justin stepped up his game

I remember when I couldn't stand you. I couldn't stand seein you on tv. Then I was all broken. And your song Nothing Like Us made me cry so many times. I was going through some hard stuff. And I began to love you for just bein you. And puttin soul in your music. You have grown up so beautifully I hope your life is long and healthy. And I wanted to take the time and say I'm sorry for judging you. I'm sorry for not giving you chance.

I've been searching for this song for so long , I'm crying hard right now 😭😭

Now I get why nobody liked Journals when it was released but is highly respected now We all were little 12-15 year old girls who were used to his baby-voice and we expected him to release more like Believe. We didn't havd taste back then. I didn't like this album at that time and was disappointed with Lolly as well but now I regret hating on this masterpiece.

The grown up bieber is the shit, fuck the haters.

his vocals have grown so much!

DEFINITION OF UNDERRATED

This song sounds better in 2024 than it did in 2013.

i want to meet the black girl who made him write this song....the amount of soul in this song is over 9000

Who produced this album? I'd like to know because every beat to this entire album is phenomenal

man this still hit different even in 2023 🥵❤️‍🔥

As a dude this is still one of the best R&B albums and songs of all time

best justin bieber album

i think bieber was forced to to his old weird puppy music. but know he is 20 he is an adult he can produced and make his own music. but now he is doing at his own way, and its very awesome the music his pulling out lately:)

2020 who love this song ❤🖤

I'm 26 & the teenage me is screamingggggggggg still in 2023 🥺🥺😍😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

i will never forget when Justin released this song he retweeted and followed me ❤️

I've never been a fan of Justin but his new music is pretty good.

I still bump this a few times every month. Great album, beats and everything

When he says hold on tight them "LIPS" won't let "ME" go 😳😳😳😭 it took me years to realize this and I'm about to be 30🤣🤣

"Hold Tight" and "We are" are recorded on Selena's birthday. . that's why he says "happy birthday" at the start!

Who else remembers staying up until midnight for music Monday's? I was in the 6th grade lmfao

2019 anyone😘💫

Black R&B version of Bieber the best version he drop nothing but bangers🔥🔥🔥

he should start back making songs like this (this album).

I'm so glad he is performing this at the purpose tour

I remember being young asl obsessed over this im 19 and it still has me in a chokehold 🥺

Anyone In 2019 October ?

Sounds like something PartyNextDoor would produce. Dope track, Canada winning

Justin is an amazing artist. He's so incredibly talented... he has since he was very small. People criticize him for "changing"... He's just getting older. That's what obviously what happens when you get older. It happens to everyone. Sure he sometimes does stupid things, but I truly believe he's a good person at heart. Love you Justin :)

This song still hit TIL THIS DAY!!!!

Journals was such an amazing album. I love every song on it 💞
