Music Friday: Justin Bieber Sings, 'I'll Be Your Platinum, I'll Be Your Silver, I'll Be Your Gold'

Welcome to Music Friday when we bring you great tunes with precious metals, gemstones or jewelry in the title or the lyrics. Today we have teen sensation Justin Bieber performing his new hit, "As Long as You Love Me," a song that features the refrain, "As long as you love me/ I'll be your platinum/ I'll be your silver/ I'll be your gold."

Released on July 10, 2012, "As Long as You Love Me" is already an international hit, having charted in 12 countries, including a position at #15 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

With more than 20 million followers on Twitter and a global fan base of "Beliebers," the 18-year-old Bieber was recently named the third-most-powerful celebrity in the world by Forbes magazine. As of May 2012, he had sold 15 million albums, and in July 2012 he took top honors at the Teen Choice Awards.

"As Long as You Love Me" is from Bieber's third studio album, Believe, and features the stylings of rapper Big Sean. The song is Bieber's first foray into dubstep, a style of music famous for its hand claps and vocal loops complemented by a booming beat. The video below features Bieber and Big Sean performing on NBC's "Today Show" on June 15, 2012. The lyrics are below if you'd like to sing along.

"As Long as You Love Me"

Written by Rodney Jerkins, Andre Lindal, Nasri Atweh, Sean Anderson and Justin Bieber. Performed by Justin Bieber and Big Sean.

We're under pressure
Seven billion people in the world trying to fit in
Keep it together
Smile on your face even though your heart is frowning
But, hey now, you know girl
We both know it's a cruel world
But, I will take my chances

As long as you love me
We could be starving, we could be homeless, we could be broke
As long as you love me
I'll be your platinum, I'll be your silver, I'll be your gold
(As long as you love me)

I'll be your soldier
Fighting every second of the day for your dreams, girl
I'll be your Hova
You can be my Destiny's Child on a scene, girl
So don't stress, and don't cry
We don't need no wings to fly
Just take, my hand

As long as you love me
We could be starving, we could be homeless, we could be broke
As long as you love me
I'll be your platinum, I'll be your silver, I'll be your gold
(As long as you love me)

I don't know if this makes sense but, you're my hallelujah
Give me a time and place, I'll rendezvous it
I'll fly you to it, I'll beat you there
Girl, you know I got you
Us, trust, a couple things I can't spell without U
Now we on top of the world, cause that's just how we do
Used to tell me sky's the limit, now the sky's our point of view
Man, we stepping out like whoa (Oh God!), cameras point and shoot
Ask me 'what's my best side?', I stand back and point at you
You the one that I argue with, feel like I need a new girl to be bothered with
But, the grass ain't always greener on the other side, it's green where you water it
So I know, we got issues baby, true, true, true
But I'd rather work on this with you than to go ahead and start with someone new
As long as you love me

We could be starving, we could be homeless, we could be broke
As long as you love me
I'll be your platinum, I'll be your silver, I'll be your gold
(As long as you love me)
