Perfect songs that written by new composers are sometimes rejected by Music publishers and A&R executives because of its lack of "special something" that will make the song stand out from the crowd.Bruno said, try to shock people by writing a song that is different and groundbreaking and it will become an event. The singer admits that writing a big hit song is the hardest thing to do.

According to CBS News, the most popular music video plays on Youtube is "The Lazy Song". In this video, it features his living room, surrounded by five guys wearing monkey masks. A man singing in front of the camera telling about what he wants to do all day and everyone is wearing sunglasses.

That video almost hit one billion views. Bruno said to the "60 Minutes" correspondent Lara Logan that the video was the biggest video he made for a long time because it was being natural. Bruno shows his studio that located in Burbank California, where he write, produce and obsessed with every detail of his music.

Bruno added that it needs to sound just like him. He must involve every process. The singer collected all the instruments that he plays on his album, this includes the keyboards, drums, and guitars. He plays instrument that has the exact sound of what we want to achieve, and if the song is not yet perfect , he tries again until he hit the note he wants.

"Uptown Funk"  took almost a year to write, Bruno said. And about that Youtube video hit "Lazy Song" is never been different because  it didn't represent the song as he wanted to be represented. He asks the label to give him a couple of thousand dollars and buy some monkey mask, and he gives the video in two days.

CBS News added that Bruno Mars had the toughest time to be in the place where he was right now. He begins with no hit songs and gets broke but he started all over again. He began writing and produce songs for another artist with his friends Ari Levine and Phillip Lawrence who are starving musicians. This was the "Billionaire" came up.

"Billionaire" leads him into another record that deal of his own and his career as a singer and a songwriter his career was finally on track. But that time, he arrested for the possession of two and a half grams of cocaine. The headlines that hit him have been narrative since he capped by two Super Bowl halftime performance for three years.
