Justin Bieber gets depressed writing new songs

Justin Bieber admitted he feels "kind of depressed" trying to perfect his new LP.

The 'Where Are You Now' hitmaker is such a perfectionist he doesn't "want to get out of bed sometimes" because he "wants people to love" his new songs, but he is constantly questioning "is this good enough?" and "is this the direction I want to go?".

He said: "I've been working a lot in the studio, just trying to have a consistent sound - a cohesive sound. I get in my head a lot, and I get kind of depressed because I want it to work so badly.

I want people to love it. I want to inspire people and sometimes I feel like, "Is this good enough? Is this the direction I want to go? I had kind of a rough week last week. I get in my head and I don't want to get out of bed sometimes."

The 21-year-old pop star also revealed the meaning behind his forthcoming single 'What Do You Mean', which he shared is about getting confused by the opposite sex, who he described as "flip-floppy".

Justin told On Air With Ryan Seacrest: 'Well, girls are often just flip-floppy. They say something and they mean something else. So... what do you mean? I don't really know, that's why I'm asking!"

The Skrillex produced single 'Where Do You Mean' will be released on August 28.
