I have waited for this album so much! And it was worth of waiting! So chapter three begins. I wish you best of look in your career and huge Thank You for the music You do!
That man in Abel's vids is Rick Wilder and is in another MV called “Dayzed Inn Daydreams,” - which is a song about the repercussions of fame and addiction. If you had this background knowledge then you would understand the context and reasoning of why The Weeknd is adding him to his videos. He's doing this because it's a reminder as well as a signal to his old fans that he's still him and he's just on the natural path that a musician must go on. (Hinted in the song "Rolling Stone") The Weeknd doesn't need to write a letter to his fans. His message is in his symbolism.
+Lucy Sun I'm so glad some of his fans are intelligent and are not just bandwagoners. Too many people just listen to "The Hills" and think they can call themselves Weeknd fans.
Every damn chapter is different. This is abels story and rn we're turning the page to chapter 3, yes there's a twist but that's life. And for the true xo fans it's a good twist bc it's almost refreshing to hear new sounds and vocals. Lets hope chapter 4 will be just as amazing. XO
to me he represents the new people he's working with to help make him mainstream. hence why when he threw his lighter the crowd enjoyed his performance more and you saw the weeknds old self on fire in the end of can't feel my face. And that song is really mainstream now. and in the hills when he meets this man it was like him looking for guidance you know.
agree with OP. the mere fact this was uploaded on this channel confirms it for me even more...at least he acknowledged knowing how some of would feel about the shift in sound.
That man is the devil he doesn't represent old fans how some people are saying. In "the hills" when he goes to the house he goes to room where that man is at, this is the beginning when he's selling his soul to the devil for fame/success. In the beginning of "can't feel my face" when abel is singing everyone is just looking at him all bored they're just not into him. someone then throws a drink at him later this man throws a lighter and he's on fire. notice that right after that everyone gets up and starts to dance. Him being on fire is saying that he's a hot thing. In "tell your friends" he's burying his old self then he later shoots this man since he already got what he wanted from him. Now in this clip it says "y no bailar con fuego del diablo" which means don't dance with the devils fire. It's not going to be very easy for abel to get rid of the devil just like that. Well at least thats what I'm taking from all of these videos. XO till we OD Fam!
I think i cant feel my face goes first cuz thats when the devil notices him , tell ur friends after cuz when he kills the devil and goes in the car and in the hills, he crashes that car and he sees.the devil letting.him kno it aint over. But with like call out my name and other songs, it seems like the weeknd is getting more popular and away from the devil which is where this beauty behind the madness comes along. The devil is mad. But idk i may be wrong, but this whole story is pretty crazy
Him being on fire and everyone suddenly loving him is also a metaphor for the devil and hell-fire. He sold his soul to the devil, and so the devil gives him talent that makes people love him and it makes him famous. Fire has always been a metaphor for hell and the devil, that's probably why there is fire in almost every video from the BBTM-era, that's the era when he started selling his soul.
+Lucy Sun Well he can be that, he can be literal devil or he can also represent drugs, women etc. We'll never know... but maybe The Weeknd will write another open letter to us, fans? Who knows?
I've done my research on the guy that has been appearing in his videos. That man in Abel's vids is Rick Wilder and is in another MV called “Dayzed Inn Daydreams,” - which is a song about the repercussions of fame and addiction.

Not all the old fans hating on the new. Some dgaf. Like, some do not care. It's music. Music is for sharing. Don't like it? Listen to something else. The old and new fans shouldn't be divided.
Thank you !! Yeoo I been a fan for a while like Im a cold die hard fan but other fans be tripping like Abel was never gonna make it big, we all saw it coming.
I want to thank you for this video. Takes a lot to make this. You're also very articulate and had me at every moment. This shows how long you've been dealing with this and how much thought went into it. Also very nice song at the end, please release it. I want to have it on a playlist.
7 years later I found this when she throws the Molotov Cocktail at the Billboard what is the Material that the image of The Weeknds Beauty Behind The Madness Album Cover Photo is printed on it is highly flammable when the bottle broke on it and is this billboard still in use along this corridor for other advertising today lastly it is kind of odd when she drives up to it the image of Abel's face is sagging due to the material being loose then between that and when the billboard is set afire his face mysteriously is smoothed out like someone went up there and pulled the material tight
I was so astonished by such an album, because each song was so good & rare. Let's say clear. And i was so ready to let behind The Trilogy and KISSLAND. I'm not canadian, you know🤷♂️. The Balloons i like are Taito Bust a Move, Prince Crystal Ball (what an aesthetic)though. And by the way, i'll never forget real music , like (...). Obsessed mind-blowing crazy pop music i may not indulge into too much. Thanx for listening.
Because every song has a explanation to it. If you listen to Rolling Stone, he sings about how he wants his fans to still like him and his music even if he changed his style.
+Aqwia Harris lol obviously that was a message to fans but shit like the hills doesn't need theories like he is just trying to add mystery to his music for no reason

It is now 2020. After hours dropped a few months ago and it seems to be that this devil is still on the rise. i think there was small glimpse of the devil in the heartless music video but i could be wrong. Any ways what im saying is that i hope this story still progresses in future videos he has to make or have made and hasn't put out yet.
"It's the song of the summer" "Y no bailar con fuego del diablo" And don't dance with the devil's fire So the devil made The Weeknd famous, but for it he will have to pay a price. (Maybe)
did this make anyone else cry? Omg. I cried for many reasons. . but why would you burn abel's billboard? that could've been my king sized comforter!!! and I'm so confused... btw angel makes me cry so hearing it made me even more emotional. Omg. Abel even though things have changed you still remain mysterious to me and no matter what I'll always love you with my crazy self.. BRB gonna go cry again. .
This would be a bomb ass xo movie if they made one.
waits for a movie... I can't wait to see him acting
Eventually we probably will see him act he seems the man to fit any shoe!

embie read my reply so you can understand
I love the way that all their videos are filmed!
HAPPY 6 YEARS TO BBTM
Oh my god, this gave me the chills. Mostly because The Weeknd always makes a short film prior the release of his albums, or after.
A la m i e r d a, esto es arte puro , sentí escalofríos viendo esto 😭
Awebo
This is The Best album 💝
i've read so many theories im confused as fuck. i love abel, he's such an amazing artist. XO
When tuning the radio, you hear “y no bailar con fuego del diablo” meaning don’t dance in the flames of the devil. Get the reference?
One of my favorite videos ever. I come back to rewatch it every so often. XOTWOD
All of his recent music videos are very cinematic. They should make a XO movie👌
Love the album!
This album is everything to me 🧡
It's my fav
this is where theweeknd filmed the 2020 American Music Awards
nice cinematography.
Amazing! Abel is telling us a story in every music video (: XO❤
love his whole album!!!
this is art, I will always be a fan no matter what x'o
First song and album I heard from the weeknd. This still on my top 3

All the songs here are 🔥🔥🔥...but I have one question, who's the old guy?
The Weeknd need a documentary

He disobeyed the devil so now the devil doesn't want him to become known 👍 never give in
woah.. I love it.It was so Beautiful
"It's the song of the summer"
"Y no bailar con fuego del diablo"
And don't dance with the devil's fire
So the devil made The Weeknd famous, but for it he will have to pay a price. (Maybe)
selena is the prize
We need a video for"Angel".
