Justin Bieber - Mark My Words Justin Bieber - Sorry ft. J Balvin Justin Bieber - I'll Show You ------- Eventually, Bieber entered to "Mark My Words," the first track off Purpose. He rose up through the floor, ensconced in a glassy cube, wearing a long white coat and armed with dry-erase markers. In a bit of Expo-marker theater, Bieber drew lyrics on the box's walls in real time with full-body flourishes. Then it was back into the stage floor for a moment of suspense before the first, unmistakable pulse of "Where Are Ü Now." For the monster hit, Bieber's crew of dancers tumbled onstage in all-white attire as women suspended in midair did acrobatics against a chrome-y, industrial video backdrop. "Get Used to It," one of the more dance-friendly non-singles on Purpose, sounded as sharp and expressive as Bieber's perfectly groomed eyebrows. The track's combustible performance brought pyrotechnics, as well as movement from the platforms onstage. "I'll Show You" followed, with Bieber in a cage as he sang, "It's not easy, when you're made out of steel" -- a dark and confusing setup until the chorus, when an LED light show began flashing across its beams, covering him in exploding octagons and digital fireworks. For an acoustic rendition of "Love Yourself," Bieber sat, guitar in hand, on an antique-looking, rose-colored loveseat. Crowd karaoke being almost inevitable for the Ed Sheeran-penned track, Bieber threw in high-reaching flourishes as the crowd carried the regular melody. Though his strumming slightly lost its rhythm as he attempted call-and-response, the crooning audience stuck with him. At this point, Bieber addressed the audience for the first time, asking nonchalantly how exactly Seattle is doing tonight. In the midst of this impressive engineering, there were still some kinks in the production: stagehands left visible by cut-outs in the set, missed lighting cues and occasionally sloppy transitions -- all fairly easy to write off as the predictable clunkiness of any show's opening night.. Though Bieber was reverent on "Life Is Worth Living" (which unfortunately featured an apparent earpiece mishap and caused him to miss an entrance) and "Purpose" (which he performed at a white grand piano), one of his few costume changes featured an oversize muscle tee with Marilyn Manson's image on the front, and "BIGGER THAN SATAN" (and slightly lower, "BIEBER") on the back. Still, his single earring glinted in the spotlight. His final wardrobe change was a turn back to the light: a fully Purpose-branded ensemble with sweats and a jean jacket, both of which, the audience was told, would be available for sale.
