Justin Timberlake drops reflective 'Mirrors' song from upcoming album

After his triumphant return to the Grammy stage on Sunday night, pop singer Justin Timberlake dropped, “Mirrors,” a new song from his upcoming album. The lengthy pop track sees him reflecting on finding true love.

Timberlake's “The 20/20 Experience” album will be his in six years since taking a hiatus to focus on acting. He first previewed the upcoming set last month with the charming, Robin Thicke-esque “Suit & Tie,” but his new song, “Mirrors,” harkens back to the “FutureSex/LoveSounds” album with its lengthy pop production full of emotion. This time Timberlake is overjoyed, showering his lover with affectionate verses. “Baby, you're the inspiration for this precious song / And I just wanna see your face light up since you put me on,” he croons in falsetto. Usual collaborator Timbaland crafted the uplifting track for the grown-up pop star.

“Mirrors” was actually the second new song Timberlake released last night. During his Grammy performance, he debuted another song, the smooth “Pusher Lover Girl.” Timberlake's “The 20/20 Experience” album will be released on March 19.
