"Treasure"
Song

"Treasure" is a song by American singer-songwriter Bruno Mars. The song was written by Mars, Philip Lawrence, Ari Levine and Phredley Brown, while production was handled by the former three as members of The Smeezingtons. It is scheduled to be released as the third single from his second studio album Unorthodox Jukebox (2012).

Release

"Treasure" is set to be released as the third single from Unorthodox Jukebox.[1] Prior to its single release, the song peaked at number 118 in France.[2]

Critical reception

"Treasure" was well-received by music critics. Jason Lipshutz of Billboard wrote that one "gets the feeling that 'Treasure,' with its grand harmonies, classically kooky hooks and slyly sexual undertones, is the musical mode that makes Mars the happiest."[3] Melissa Maerz of Entertainment Weekly remarked that the song "makes silk-jumpsuit disco feel contemporary,"[4] while Spin's Dan Hyman favorably compared "Treasure" to the work of American disco artist Donna Summer.[5] Caroline Sullivan of The Guardian described the song as a "sprightly disco thumper".[6]

Chart performance

In the US, it debuted on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 at number 25 and in Canada debuted at number 98.

In Australia, it debuted at number 28, on the ARIA Charts week of May 19, 2013. In the following week, climbed to number 17 on the charts.[7] In France, after the single was released peaked at number 113, on the following week it moved to number 53 on the chart.[2]

Live performances

On January 11, 2013, Mars performed "Treasure" and his previous single "Locked Out of Heaven" on the late-night talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live.[8]. On May 19, Mars kicked off the 2013 Billboard Music Awards with a performance of the single. Described as funky, retro and amusing, the performance was reminiscent of classic Jackson 5 stage shows, from the matching ensembles to the simple, in-line choreography that Mars and his band employed. Gossiponthis.com stated that "While Bruno might not have the moves of Chris Brown, his attention to detail as a musician trumps Chris’ ability to moonwalk and crotch grab easily".

Music video

The video is scheduled to be shot in Las Vegas on May 20, 2013.[9] It's known that the model Trisha from the "The Platinum Agency" was chosen for the lead roal of the video.[10]
