BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge month launched this morning (September 1st) with a live acoustic set from Justin Bieber.
Performing live from Henson Studios in LA Justin sang 6 songs during Nick Grimshaw’s breakfast show.
Speaking to Nick before his performance Bieber admitted he was a little nervous.
“Sometimes when a few people are watching you it makes you more nervous than a stadium or arena.”
Justin performed some of his most recent hits, as well as his latest single ‘Let Me Love You’ and a cover of Tracy Chapman’s 1988 hit ‘Fast Car’.
The order changed because he's a free & easy kinda guy – but we nabbed a set list all the same ? #R1LiveLoungeMonth pic.twitter.com/luGRHplEqZ

Ahead of the performance Justin invited Radio 1 DJ Clara Amfo into his home, giving her a guided tour of what she described as ‘the most fun house in the world.’
Justin seemed a little down beat after his live set, tweeting fans an apology.
I don't usually get nervous but tonight I was thrown off and I was. Sorry about that. Really wanted to be my best. Hope u all had fun
