"Mirrors" is a song recorded by American singer and songwriter Justin Timberlake for his third studio album, The 20/20 Experience (2013). First conceived in 2009, the track was inspired by the marriage of his grandparents. It is an eight-minute-long mid-tempo progressive pop and R&B ballad. Timberlake wrote and produced the song with Timothy "Timbaland" Mosley and Jerome "J-Roc" Harmon, with additional writing from James Fauntleroy.

"Mirrors" was issued as the second single from The 20/20 Experience in February 2013. It went on to top the Australian Urban, Bulgarian, European, Lebanese, Polish, South African and United Kingdom singles charts, as well as peaking at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and topping the Mainstream Top 40 in the United States. "Mirrors" was ranked at number six on the Billboard Year-End Hot 100 chart. The song was met with positive reviews by critics upon release and received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Pop Solo Performance. The accompanying music video, directed by Floria Sigismondi, was released in March 2013 and depicts a tale of two lovers through several decades. The clip eventually won two MTV Video Music Awards including Video of the Year. As of 2014, the song has sold over 3 million digital copies in the US.

Production and writing

"Mirrors" was written and produced by Justin Timberlake, Timothy "Timbaland" Mosley and Jerome "J-Roc" Harmon, with additional writing from James Fauntleroy.[1] During an interview with Billboard magazine, Harmon recalled how the song was conceived in 2009, during the recording sessions for Timbaland's third studio album Shock Value II (2009), "He's [Timberlake] like, 'I'm gonna save this one, and this is gonna go on my album.' We never knew when he was going to put it out – we were like, 'Aw man, you're in movies now!' We could have waited another 10, 15 years. But then he surprised us last year and said he was ready, and he brought ['Mirrors'] over to the project as well."[2]

Although the final version of "Mirrors" is eight minutes long, Harmon stated that its second half which is more R&B oriented in comparison with the first part which is rock-influenced was made years later and independent of the original track, "We segued each piece to go into another song, so if you were to break it up, that second part of 'Mirrors' is like a song by itself. Once we got all the songs that [Timberlake] knew he wanted on this album, then that's when we began to tie everything together, and the second part just fell in order."[2]

"Mirrors" was engineered by Chris Godbey, with assistance from Alejandro Baima. Timberlake arranged and produced his vocals, which were recorded at Larabee Studios in North Hollywood, California. The song was mixed by Jimmy Douglass, Godbey and Timberlake at Larabee Studios. Harmon provided keyboards for the song, while Elliot Ives played the guitar. The strings in the song were played by Benjamin Wright and The Benjamin Wright Orchestra.[1]

On March 21, 2013, Timberlake posted an audio clip on his official website; in it he elaborated that "Mirrors" is very special song for him. The singer explained that the single is a love song about person's other half and admitted that is inspired by the marriage of his grandparents. Timberlake further said, "One of the most valuable things in a relationship is being able to constantly change and be individual, but look to the other side to the person that you're with and know that they're changing as well individually, but somehow you two can mirror each other and be the other half of that world that you both create."[3]

"Mirrors" is a mid-tempo[4] progressive pop[5] and R&B[6] ballad[4] with an approximate length of eight minutes and five seconds. It is composed in the key of E♭ major, set in common time and has a moderately slow groove of 77 beats per minute.[7] Timberlake's vocals span from the low note of E♭3 to the high note of C5 (sheet music commonly prints the notes of a melody an octave higher to keep it within the staff).[7] The original mix has an instrumentation of emo power ballad guitar strobes, hand-claps, orchestral flares, electro blips and chipmunk synth chirps accompanied with "vocoder-squawk backing vocals",[8] and the orchestra has a noticeable much-lower volume than the percussion and electric guitars.[9]

Brad Stern of MTV Buzzworthy wrote that it is hugely catchy and contains melodies that have arena-size.[10] Paste's Lauren Martin described it as "Coldplay-does-R&B",[11] while according to Raible, "Mirrors" is a sad answer to Natalie Imbruglia's 1997 single "Torn".[6] Mikael Wood of Los Angeles Times described it as a cross between Timberlake's 2002 single "Cry Me a River" and "November Rain" by Guns N' Roses.[12]

HitFix's Melinda Newman wrote that the melody features layer upon layer of the singer's vocals stacked upon each other.[13] Dolan described Timberlake's singing on the song as a "replete with laidback soulfulness, mountain-climbing croon and falsetto butter."[8] Jason Lipshutz of Billboard stated that aside from the presence of Timbaland's "fantastically cluttered production", the difference between "Mirrors" and "Cry Me a River" is clear: "10 years ago, Timberlake was broken, and now he is whole."[14] The conclusion can be seen in the opening lyrics:

Aren't you somethin' to admire?
Cause your shine is somethin' like a mirror
And I can't help but notice

You reflect in this heart of mine.

"Mirrors" is a "new-age wedding reception song".[15] Lyrically, in the song, Timberlake sings to a lover about "coming to the realization" that she is his "other half".[16] The singer references "taking a break from the relationship": "It was easy coming back to you/ Once I figured it out, you were right here all along," he sings on the chorus.[16] "It's like you're my mirror, my mirror staring back at me/ I couldn't get any bigger/ With anyone else beside of me."[17] Vibe's Charley Rogulewski wrote that the strength of the song is in Timberlake's Neo blue-eyed soul delivery of the "catchy" lyrics, "I don't want to lose you now. I'm looking right at the other half of me."[18] Throughout the song, a robot voice repeats the phrase "you are the love of my life" over 35 times.[19]

Release

On February 11, 2013, "Mirrors" was digitally released worldwide as the second single from his album, The 20/20 Experience.[20] Timberlake had announced the release on his Twitter account the previous day.[21] It was available to buy as either as a stand-alone track or as an "instant-gratification download" when a customer pre-ordered the album.[22] On March 1, it was released in Germany as a CD single, which it also contained the lead single from the album, "Suit & Tie".[23] A radio edit of the single, was released for digital download on March 13 in France,[24] Spain[25] and the United States.[26] On April 16, it was solicited to contemporary hit[27] and rhythmic radio stations in the United States.[28] Additionally, "Mirrors" was sent to adult contemporary radio on April 22[29] and to urban contemporary radio on May 14.[30]

Critical reception

The song received positive to mixed reviews from music critics. Jenna Hally Rubenstein of MTV Buzzworthy commented in a positive review, "Unlike "Suit & Tie"'s sultry and retro vibes, the selfie-taker's new jam reminds us a bit more of Justin's FutureSex/LoveSounds days with layered synths and ridiculously club-ready pop production courtesy of JT's main man Timbaland."[31] Scott Shetler of Popcrush gave the single four stars out of five, writing: "The song relies on Timbaland’s familiar handclap-style beats and layers of synths and vocals, which instantly embed their way into your brain ... over a bed of gentle piano twinkling and a distorted Timbaland vocal loop, JT delivers some falsetto crooning and a heavy dose of “oohs” and “aahs.”"[32] Another favorable review came from Digital Spy's Robert Copsey, who wrote: "Despite musical shifts in the intervening 11 years and the absence of a cheating girlfriend, [the single] still manages to sound remarkably fresh. "It's like you're my mirror/ My mirror staring back at me," he tells his lover over head-nodding Timbaland beatboxing and grandiose strings, before spilling his guts about how he should never have left them in the first place."[33]

However, Marc Hogan of Spin Magazine provided a mixed review, stating "And how does the former 'N Sync singer choose to crown his return to pop prominence but with a pickup line even MxPx wouldn't touch? Backed with music that's a cross between luxe Bruno Mars '80s-grenade balladry and those human beatbox hiccups that, in all honesty, were starting to be played out even when Timberlake tapped Timbaland to use them, brilliantly, on FutureSex/LoveSounds?"[34] Vibe's Charley Rogulewski wrote that the singer renders the song more like a pop performer than a R&B, and puts a "wider space between him and the likes of Robin Thicke. This man is making a serious comeback."[18] Andy Kellman of Allmusic unfavorably described the song as "less an epic than a drawn-out midtempo pop ballad" and "not one of [Timberlake's] more remarkable singles."[35]

In a monthly mix review published in Sound on Sound, Mike Senior was not positive towards the track, feeling that the live strings used in the track were wasted, and sounded too low of volume compared to the other instruments.[9]

At the end of the year, Rolling Stone listed "Mirrors" at number 7 on its list of 100 Best Songs of 2013[36] and Billboard editors placed it at number 10 on its 20 Best Songs of 2013.[37]

Music video

Development

The music video was directed by Floria Sigismondi[38] and saw its world premiere as the highlight of an hour-long special on The CW in celebration of The 20/20 Experience's release.[39] Timberlake dedicated the music video to his maternal grandparents William and Sadie Bomar, who were married for 63 years until William's death in 2012.[39] The video is choreographed by Noemie Lafrance.

It features montages of three separate time periods of a couple's life, from their initial introduction and whimsically falling in love on a funhouse date (portrayed by actors Ariane Rinehart and Keenan Cochrane), to the difficult start of their marriage with a pregnancy, to when they have grown old together and the old lady (Judith Roberts) packing up her recently deceased husband's belonging whilst reflecting on their life together.

At the beginning, the elderly woman looks back in her teen year in the 1950s when she meets her husband in a bar and goes on a date to a funhouse. Then, in the 1960s, she cries with black mascara all over her face as she is pregnant and they are unmarried. Meanwhile, the elderly woman, who sees the events of her teen years and interspersed with scenes of her and her husband dancing for the last time before they move out, walks into a mysterious room where an old man is seen staring at the real life woman in her white wedding dress next to two mannequin people while rain pours down on the glass. This is probably symbolizing that he always viewed his wife as beautiful as the day they married. She moves through the video while the old man and the elderly woman move walk through separate ways through the video and through the mirrors symbolizing his death and her moving on.

During the final chorus, one of the books the teenaged couple left on the floor of the funhouse falls back into the elderly woman's hand as she closes the book. The old woman is then seen with a ring which is revealed in flashbacks to be her wedding ring, after she married her husband due to the pregnancy. Her husband looks on and they move through separate areas before the end of the video where the old man and woman walk through three versions of mirrors. The elderly woman drops the ring, showing she is ready to move on after her husband's death. This transitions into Timberlake catching it, symbolizing that he is carrying on their legacy. He then sings "(you're) the love of my life" while dancing through and around the funhouse mirrors. Eventually he is joined by two female dancers in blue wigs. Justin and one of the other dancers eventually mirror each other's movements through glass at the end of the video.

Reception

MTV News' James Montgomery praised the video, saying:

"It's a clip that packs an emotional wallop, a downright beautiful examination of the ebbs and flows of love and the true connection that continues once our time here is over. That's a rare thing indeed, and so is this video ... it is understated and elegant and really truly touching."[40]

Timberlake's grandmother Sadie Bomar told Italian weekly Grazia that "Justin didn't tell me he was doing it [making the video], it was a surprise. He said, “You have to see this video, just you sit down and watch it". I was moved by it, it brings tears to my eyes. It's a lovely tribute to us."[41]

Timberlake took home the award for Video of the Year at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards. The video also won the award for Best Editing. It was named one of the 10 best music videos of the year by The Hollywood Reporter[42] and Spin.[43]
