}} ''Never Say Never: The Remixes'' is the second remix album by Canadian recording artist Justin Bieber. Released on February 14, 2011, the album accompanies the release of his film, ''Justin Bieber: Never Say Never''. The album includes remixes of five songs from his first album, ''My World 2.0'', featuring guest appearances from Jaden Smith, Rascal Flatts, Usher, Chris Brown, Kanye West, Raekwon and Miley Cyrus. In addition a new track is also included. The Jaden Smith-assisted "Never Say Never", originally the theme song for ''The Karate Kid'', was re-released as the album's lead single and only single on January 25, 2011. The album reached at number one on the US ''Billboard'' 200 and was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), making this Justin's second number-one album and second platinum selling record in the United States, following the release of his debut album ''My World'' (2009). ==Background== In December 2010, Bieber stated that he was collaborating with American country band Rascal Flatts, presumably for his second studio album. In an interview with WSIX, lead singer Gary LeVox said "() asked us to do a duet with him on his next record. It's actually a really good song! The kid is really talented. He plays five or six different instruments really well." Bieber also confirmed the collaboration in-the-works on Twitter. Also a conversation on Twitter, American R&B singer Chris Brown and Bieber revealed that they were also working together on new music. In January 2011, it was rumored that Bieber was planning to release an album to accompanying the release of his 3D biopic-concert film, ''Justin Bieber: Never Say Never''. On January 6, 2011, Bieber's manager Scooter Braun held a live chat with fans, stating that new music should be expected from the singer around Valentine's Day. Just after winning a Golden Globe award for the "You Haven't Seen the Last of Me" from the film ''Burlesque'', on January 18, 2011, songwriter Diane Warren confirmed that she had just completed a song, "Born to Be Somebody", to be included on album to support Bieber's new film. Warren said "It's a beautiful song. That's a good age difference between Cher and Justin – 40 years!"〔 Additionally, singer-songwriter Ester Dean confirmed she worked on the project for Bieber's film. On January 31, 2011, the official announcement of a musical counterpart to the film was revealed, and that it would be released on February 14, 2011, the Monday following the film's opening weekend.〔 The album was said to contain the previously released Jaden Smith collaboration and theme song to ''The Karate Kid'', "Never Say Never", as well as the remix of his single "Somebody to Love", which features mentor Usher.〔 A previous intentionally leaked remix of Bieber's "Runaway Love", which was produced by Kanye West, featuring himself and Wu-Tang Clan member Raekwon was also added to the album.〔 New contributions came from Rascal Flatts and Chris Brown adding parts to "That Should Be Me" and "Up", respectively.〔 A live version of Bieber performing "Overboard" alongside fellow pop singer Miley Cyrus on his My World Tour at Madison Square Garden is included as a track.〔 The Diane Warren-penned "Born to Be Somebody" is a previously unheard track on the album, stating that you are born to be whatever you want to be; to "light up the sky like lighting;" to Be somebody. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Never Say Never: The Remixes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
