Commercial performance
"Where Are Ü Now" was a commercial success, reaching the top-ten in the singer's native Canada, the U.S., and several other territories.[38] In the United States, "Where Are Ü Now" debuted at number 97, and during its seventh week the song entered the top-forty at number 40.[39] Five weeks later, the song jumped to number twenty, becoming Bieber's 15th top-twenty hit and his first since "Heartbreaker" (2013). It was also Skrillex and Diplo's first as lead artists.[40] The song peaked six weeks later, reaching number eight – Bieber's first top-ten hit since "Beauty and a Beat" (2012). Later, after his performance at the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards, the song rebounded to number ten, becoming the first time Bieber had concurrent top 10s for the first time, since his song "What Do You Mean?" was at number-one.[41] The song topped the Dance/Electronic Songs chart, becoming the first leader on the list for all the three artists.[42]
In the United Kingdom, the song managed to peak at number three, becoming Bieber's highest-charting single since 2012's "Boyfriend",[43] Skrillex's first top-ten single out of his previous seven entries,[44] and Diplo's first appearance as a solo artist.[45] The song also peaked at number three in Australia and New Zealand, becoming the highest charting entries for Skrillex, Diplo and Bieber in the former.[46] Eventually, it was certified two-times platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) and three-time platinum by the Recorded Music NZ;[47] it was also the ninth highest-selling single of 2015 in the latter.[48] The song also reached the top-ten in Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Netherlands and Sweden.[49][50][51][52][53]
Music video
From May 29 to May 31, 2015, there was an event held at the Jack Ü headquarters for fans to customize the photo-shoots for the "Where Are Ü Now" music video with crayons and colored pastels.[54] Two teasers for the video were released on June 26, 2015,[55] with Samsung+ debuting the video on June 27, 2015, and YouTube and Vevo on June 29, 2015.[56] According to the duo in a post on YouTube, "We are being overwhelmed, in a good way, by the success of 'Where Are Ü Now' with Justin Bieber, so with the video we wanted to just take it back to the beginning of the record and essentially create an ode to our fans. Doing what we do, it's entirely all about the fans. We walk a fine line by being 'famous' and in the public eye but we are only here because of you, the fans. Justin wrote this record during a tough time in his life and it comes to us that sometimes, as artists, we are also just objects and we have to take that as much as we have to use that to create. We all do this for you, respect that you put us here and it's Ü that made the video."[57]
As described by Brittany Spanos of Rolling Stone, "The video opens on an art gallery filled with photos of Bieber's silhouette before shifting to the singer offering an emotional delivery of the track in a dark room. Bieber eventually becomes covered in animated paint, drawings and caricatures. Back in the gallery, Jack Ü fans are providing the illustrations that are appearing over or surrounding Bieber's body as he sings and dances to the track."[58] As noted by Emilee Lindner of MTV News, "The video portrays his internal pain with soft lighting and close-shots, but also displays him as an 'object,' like Jack Ü said, switching to a time-lapse speed while people use him as a canvas for however they want to paint him as."[59] The music video received four nominations at the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards,[4] winning the Best Visual Effects category.[60]
As of June 12, 2022, the music video has more than 1.21 billion views and 5.9 million likes on YouTube.[61]
