It was available for digital download on January 18, 2010. The song received airplay directly after release, officially impacting mainstream and rhythmic radio on January 26, 2010. The song is uptempo R&B, blending together dance-pop and hip-hop elements while using influences of doo-wop music. The song has received positive reviews from critics who complimented the song’s effective lyrics and chorus and commended Ludacris’ part and the song’s ability to have an urban twist.
The song was a commercial success, peaking at number one in France and Scotland, and charting in the top ten of the United Kingdom, Canada, the United States, Australia, Norway, Japan, Ireland, Hungary, Belgium (Flanders), Slovakia and New Zealand. “Baby” was the fourth most successful single of 2010 in France. The accompanying music video takes place in a mall/bowling alley setting. The video features several cameos such as Drake, Lil Twist and Tinashe, in which Bieber chases after a girl. As of May 2013, the song has sold 3.9 million digital downloads in the United States and is certified Diamond in the country.[2]
The official music video is the 40th most-viewed video on YouTube, and, as of July 2021, is the fourth-most-disliked YouTube video and the second most-disliked YouTube music video. It had been the most viewed from July 12, 2010, when it surpassed the music video for “Bad Romance” by Lady Gaga, until November 24, 2012, when it was surpassed by the music video for “Gangnam Style” by Psy. Bieber performed the song several times, including Saturday Night Live, and the ninth season of American Idol.

[Intro: Justin Bieber]
Oh, woah
Oh, woah
Oh, woah
[Verse 1: Justin Bieber]
You know you love me, I know you care
Just shout whenever and I’ll be there
You want my love, you want my heart
And we will never, ever, ever be apart
Are we an item? Girl, quit playin’
We’re just friends, what are you sayin’?
Said “There’s another,” and looked right in my eyes
My first love broke my heart for the first time, and I was like
[Chorus: Justin Bieber]
Baby, baby, baby oh
Like baby, baby, baby no
Like baby, baby, baby oh
Thought you’d always be mine, mine
Baby, baby, baby oh
Like baby, baby, baby no
Like baby, baby, baby oh
Thought you’d always be mine, mine
[Verse 2: Justin Bieber]
Oh, for you I would have done whatever
And I just can’t believe we ain’t together
And I wanna play it cool, but I’m losin’ you
I’ll buy you anything, I’ll buy you any ring
And I’m in pieces, baby, fix me
And just shake me ’til you wake me from this bad dream
I’m goin’ down, down, down, down
And I just can’t believe my first love won’t be around, and I’m like
[Chorus: Justin Bieber]
Baby, baby, baby oh
Like baby, baby, baby no
Like baby, baby, baby oh
Thought you’d always be mine, mine
Baby, baby, baby oh
Like baby, baby, baby no
Like baby, baby, baby oh
Thought you’d always be mine, mine
[Verse 3: Ludacris]
(Luda)
When I was 13, I had my first love
There was nobody that compared to my baby
And nobody came between us, nor could ever come above
She had me goin’ crazy
Oh, I was starstruck
She woke me up daily, don’t need no Starbucks
She made my heart pound, and skip a beat when I see her in the street and
At school on the playground, but I really wanna see her on the weekend
She knows she’s got me dazing, ’cause she was so amazin’
And now my heart is breakin’, but I just keep on sayin’
[Chorus: Justin Bieber]
Baby, baby, baby oh
Like baby, baby, baby no
Like baby, baby, baby oh
Thought you’d always be mine, mine
Baby, baby, baby oh
Like baby, baby, baby no
Like baby, baby, baby oh
Thought you’d always be mine, mine
[Outro: Justin Bieber]
I’m gone, yeah yeah yeah
Now I’m all gone, yeah yeah yeah
Now I’m all gone, yeah yeah yeah
Now I’m all gone, gone, gone, gone, I’m gone
