“Really enjoying the instrumental for Justin Bieber’s latest single,” Marra wrote on YouTube. “So I thought I’d make a quick mashup! Songs are in the same key and same tempo, too easy!”
It’s no secret that Grande is a big fan of Bieber’s music. In early April, the diva was joined by Bieber in Los Angeles for a performance of her song “Love Me Harder.” Bieber stuck around for a solo job of his “Where Are You Now,” and the pair joined forces for a duet of Bieber’s 2012 track “As Long As You Love Me.”
