LISTEN > Bieber's Song About Paternity Claims: Appropriate or Odd?

Justin Bieber was faced with some pretty serious charges in November when 20-year-old Mariah Yeater claimed she was mothering the young pop star's child. It didn't take long for the whole thing to blow over, but it was enough to inspire Bieber to write a whole song about the experience. He changed the name a little bit to "Maria" and calls the baby a "she," though the baby was a boy, but the reference is obvious.

In May, Bieber explained, "The whole baby situation, where they said I had her baby -- totally not true, by the way -- I wrote a song about that. It's kind of my 'Billie Jean.'" Now that his sophomore album "Believe" is out, you can give the track a listen and let us know what you think. Is the song an appropriate response to the situation, or is it a weird way to deal with the trouble?

    Its creativity and he vented it into a song but the name is too close to home, she is going to sue him for that now and get her name out as Maria....

    Here is one more Maria song:



    Guess the next one will be Gina Jee!!!!

    Almost up, I think they were up long ago and he should have been gone by now.

    But he still keeps popping up. I won't think him gone until he is like David Cassity or Fabian. People have to look up who he was.

    I used to look like him, years ago and I use his picture as a avatar. He is gone and I am long gone over the hill. He really was a great guy and his brother Jim wasn't bad either.

    notice the article is saying it "blew over" not that IT WASN'T HIS? easy for him to pay her off. and yes, and a youth, being a rock star, he gets laid. WHERE'S THE BLOOD TEST.

    Why not? Singers write about what happens to them in their lives. It actually makes Bieber more interesting that he would write a song like this. I quite like the song, too :)

    He denied it was his kid and now he makes more money off the denial after he has been paid for appearances on TV? Go ahead and make him richer by buying this and all his other albums. And once parted form your meager, and hard earned $$$ don't ever look back.

    ... if only because it sounds horribly like Michael Jackson and does the Biebs reallllllly want to go down that same road?
