This man is a genius. Every album comes out with a different tone/genre, and yet somehow he absolutely nails it. There's nothing he can't do, a true artist in every aspect. So blessed to be able to hear his music in this day and age.
Speaking of genre, what the fuck was this one? It went from a 70's-80's style character study like "Joker" in the videos for "Heartless" and "Blinding Lights", but then starting in the video for "After Hours", he got dragged by some invisible force, killed a guy with a knife in an elevator, and went after a girl like in a slasher film in "Your Eyes".
To anybody reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind may clarity replace confusion. may peace and calmness fill your life
For real his album got so many different vibes like some pop, some slow and amazing singing, snow child got its own type of vibe in my opinion!! This album is so great for people who like more than one type of music
LanaDatVlogs HD Amen to that🙌, still listening to the album but kinda sad that he’s getting hate from his “old” fans who “still want his old type of music” and that they genuinely can’t enjoy more than one type of music so they hate everything that doesn’t sound like it.
He is so good man I swear. I'm a die hard music fan so I dissect a lot and Abel man...he's something else. The lyrics, the melodies, the hooks. He is SO GOOD. Very rarely have we had an artist who makes you FEEL something with their music these past years. Abel does it with every project literally.
@@describeskill765 lmao .. My exams are going on why dafuq would I want to promote my gaming channel... If we see someone doing something good we should appreciate him... Dont become a cancer 9 Yr old playing fortnite man.......
Dua Lipa is a strong contender, too. I love how her and The Weeknd both have this retro feeling to their songs at the moment and I'm rooting for both artists :)
I’ve slept on The Weeknd for too long, I’ve always liked some of his songs but never explored into his music so when this album dropped I decided to give it a shot and explore it and I wasn’t disappointed I was very very impressed and entirely shocked by how amazing his music is. This is Entirely a Masterpiece.
I just pretend that I'm in the dark I don't regret 'cause my heart can't take a loss I'd rather be so oblivious I'd rather be with you When it's said, when it's done, yeah I don't ever wanna know I can tell what you done ,yeah When I look at you In your eyes I see there's something burning inside you Oh, inside you In your eyes, I know it hurts to smile But you try to, oh, you try to You always try to hide the pain You always know just what to say I always look the other way I'm blind, I'm blind In your eyes, you lie, but I don't let it define you Oh, define you I tried to find love in someone else too many times But I hope you know I mean it When I tell you you're the one that was on my mind, oh When it's said, when it's done I would never let you know I'm ashamed of what I done When I look at you In your eyes I see there's something burning inside you Oh, inside you In your eyes, I know it hurts to smile But you try to, oh, you try to You always try to hide the pain You always know just what to say I always look the other way I'm blind, I'm blind In your eyes, you lie, but I don't let it define you Oh, define you In your eyes I see there's something burning inside you Oh, inside you You always try to hide the pain You always know just what to say I always look the other way I'm blind, I'm blind In your eyes, you lie, but I don't let it define you Oh, define you
Maybe because 80s decade is one of the greatest when it comes to musical expression ? Finally someone who is not using trash hiphop beats.. you are not very intelligent it seems, what kind of question is that even lol ..
Omg I'm honestly sick of everyone saying he got inspired by mj.... Fuck that this is nothing like Michael Jackson! He just has a similar voice ! Sick of seeing that cliché shit in nearly of everyone of the weeknds songs!
keep in mind, this album is the best critically acclaimed and blinding lights has been in billboard top 10 since it came out... the grammys are so flawed.
This is so rare to hear something like this nowdays. I heard it in the Cobra Kai and thought it's another awesome 80s song, but I was so surprised to see it's 2020 song. We need more songs like this.
I heard it first from Cobra Kai too. Imagine my surprise seeing Tory and Robbie dance to this and realize it's the weekend... One of my favorite moments in season 4.
This is a masterpiece.. The Weeknd is a genius, Weeknd goes in soo hard on this right here! Only reason he is getting more hits is cuz he is just watching that short on my channel explaining how all these rappers out here be blowing up so big..
R.I.P mama 5/13/2020 This was your favorite song an Blinding Lights I will NEVER forget you an when you last hugged me an told me you loved me I wish you were here with me to say it again😰🙏🏾

@@takerfan4ever I agree, I love the weeknd but he really only sings in one way, unless he adds that autotune effect in a few of his songs. MJ was extremely versatile! I don't think anybody can even come close to the legendary king of pop himself so I feel like people really should stop comparing especially since I bet most of the people that do the comparisons don't actually listen to MJ
Jonah Dewar idk bout prince but definitely Michael Jackson, but this the first time I ever heard someone say Prince lol, prince was way different, weeknd really sounds like Michael Jackson a lot
Better than Michael you mean... MJ voice was forced by his father & shots to not allow his voice to change... The Weeknd, Abel, My make-believe husband will always be the most amazing & ALL NATURAL TALENT that will NEVER FADE or CHANGE... Jus gotta be honest wit everyone 🤷 ❤💯
he's not conveying another person's skewed perception, consider that he's talking straight heart to heart. we saved this man from too many mental diabilities. adhd is impossible to define nowadays or maybe it just the way to people connect in the "meta-physical" plane. they theory of unchaning can be ripped apart or survive another milleania in classical
This man is a genius. This is definitely a banger. These are tough times for everyone in the globe. I wish everyone safety and plz social distancing. So this all can stop. The weeknd ur albums always fire. Thank you for this music. Stay safe everyone. XO 4 LIFFE
holy shit me too!! literally only starting listening to it in these past few days, idk which rock I was living under but this album has NO business going this hard
Speechless, this song hits so hard and goes straight to the core. Those lyrics... omg, it chokes me every time! This is so real and so raw, thank you for making this music, Abel. This is a drug and a cure in one, the world needs more of this, please don't stop this genius music and keep going!
I definitely could associate with the line *“In your eyes, I know it hurts to smile but you try to. You always try to hide the pain, you always know just what to say....”* people were blind and hardly suspected I was internally crying and feeling intense sadness.
The weeknd’s lyrics and music beat are polar opposites to each other They reflect that on the outside he’s trying to enjoy his life and be happy But on the inside he’s still deeply sad by his traumas
I love him so much now that i really know all the meanings behind, i found his music incredibly good but now its even better, my love and respect just went very high, just like twenty øne pilots high beat sad lyrics, sound familiar.
@@ThiefOfNavarre The story is sad. I hope The Weeknd isn’t actually sad, and it’s just the character’s he’s made. It’s more important he’s fine than him doing music.
When I heard this on the radio the other day, I actually thought it WAS a Michael Jackson song. Like an unreleased song they found or something. Idk. Blew my mind.
@JayTooSavy lmfao Michael Jackson isn't the best music artist ever. Most of his best songs were actually written and produced by Quincy Jones. MJ was a great performer and singer but as an artist? Nah.
@@mohsinshah7117 There's a genre for that and it's called synthwave. The instrumental for many of his songs is synthwave with vocals on top. Which kinda makes it into synth-pop. I like synthwave on it's own but I also like the sound of the human voice, so this guy is pretty much exactly what I need from music right now.
The saxophone is literally the cherry on top of this songggg
Jackie Velasquez truly!
Jackie Velasquez factsssssss
Just what I thought!!!

And I never really believed a saxophone could make music that is sexy. Until now

I play the saxophone and I played the sax solo and it sounded good
Good spoiler i love it😍
Sax solos make everything better :)

he's not conveying another person's skewed perception, consider that he's talking straight heart to heart. we saved this man from too many mental diabilities. adhd is impossible to define nowadays or maybe it just the way to people connect in the "meta-physical" plane. they theory of unchaning can be ripped apart or survive another milleania in classical
This man is a genius. This is definitely a banger. These are tough times for everyone in the globe. I wish everyone safety and plz social distancing. So this all can stop. The weeknd ur albums always fire. Thank you for this music. Stay safe everyone. XO 4 LIFFE
Xoxo
sum of us got friends we meet with to have a good time during this time. we not social distancing bruh
Your moms the real banger!
@@happyhollie I heard it and its quite bad, you should practise for at least another 15-17 years
Thank you. You too! Stay safe, you and your loved ones!
His falsetto is incredible ! Never ceases to amaze me how he can hit them notes then descend back down without any effort. Crazy
Llilllillllll l

Absolutely nobody:
The Weeknd: “Let’s bring the 80’s back”
80s♥
Love him so much! ♥♥♥
80s been back son. Most his fans are from the 80s and 90s its coming back
He doing the right thing
King of the Fall. This album is so needed during this shitty time ❤️
King of the Fall. YESSSS
I start moving when I hear this song!
I can’t tell what is better, the Weekend’s voice or the saxophone
BOTH
@@salvatoredefilippi4736 yep
Dunno, both?
It's the Saxephone. No doubt.
the melody is so underrated
Honesty hate how I was sleeping on this album for the entirety of last year. Guess I'm starting 2021 right because holy shit this slaps SO HARD
holy shit me too!! literally only starting listening to it in these past few days, idk which rock I was living under but this album has NO business going this hard
RIGHT! Me rn!!!
@@aloyannce3695 me too, his songs are literally the only thing I listen too right now. Like none stop :)
Couldn't have said it better. Holy crap I'm pissed I've been missing out on crazy good music. I like the vibe this album brings
OMG same I regret for being this late to feel the whole album. This is insaely amazing.
Speechless, this song hits so hard and goes straight to the core. Those lyrics... omg, it chokes me every time! This is so real and so raw, thank you for making this music, Abel. This is a drug and a cure in one, the world needs more of this, please don't stop this genius music and keep going!
I definitely could associate with the line *“In your eyes, I know it hurts to smile but you try to. You always try to hide the pain, you always know just what to say....”* people were blind and hardly suspected I was internally crying and feeling intense sadness.
I aint alone then. Lol
Don't take the v@ccine trust in the LORD ALMIGHTY!.!!.
JESUS is coming soon and JESUS is the only way to salvation accept JESUS as your LORD and SAVIOR today!!!!
give this man his flowers 😢
The weeknd’s lyrics and music beat are polar opposites to each other
They reflect that on the outside he’s trying to enjoy his life and be happy
But on the inside he’s still deeply sad by his traumas
I love him so much now that i really know all the meanings behind, i found his music incredibly good but now its even better, my love and respect just went very high, just like twenty øne pilots high beat sad lyrics, sound familiar.
Like me....... Love this song and I love singing it
Save your tears hit different
El condor pasa
Q
you know this is just a lyrics there is no drama or traumas -.- ,
This sounds like Michael Jackson and Stranger Things . SO COOL
Yeah!♥♥♥♥♥
You mean the 80's?
I thought the same, this & Save Your Tears sound like they should be on Stranger Things lol
A Cns this better be in season 4 of stranger things

I feel the 80's vibe in this music.
Same w blinding lights, hardest to love, and save your tears
I think we can all agree that no matter the style of music The Weeknd is going for, for an album, it’s going to be great.
Just e
Have you watched the MIddle8 breakdown of this album. I watched after buying the album, eye opener
@@ThiefOfNavarre I haven’t but I will now that you’ve mentioned it.
@@ThiefOfNavarre The story is sad. I hope The Weeknd isn’t actually sad, and it’s just the character’s he’s made. It’s more important he’s fine than him doing music.
Old heads : 80's music was better
The Weeknd : My album can time travel.
Regarde svp : ruclips.net/video/sGLCeAvd1zw/видео.html
That is SO DAMN TRUE. I felt like it was 1986 all over again. And I was 13 then... so I remember.

The weeknd : say no more
the drums aren't 80s
@@matieking It's a modern taste of the 80s so not everything is gonna be 80s. Jeez.
This is just insane how similar he is to Michael Jackson
That's blasphemy no one is like Michael Jackson
@@victinbay6836 being similar doesnt mean SAME
When I heard this on the radio the other day, I actually thought it WAS a Michael Jackson song. Like an unreleased song they found or something. Idk. Blew my mind.
@JayTooSavy lmfao Michael Jackson isn't the best music artist ever. Most of his best songs were actually written and produced by Quincy Jones. MJ was a great performer and singer but as an artist? Nah.
*ANYONE LIKE THE SONG YOU CAN FIND THE RINGTONE IN MY CHANNEL*
the best artist in this generation.
3:17 is one of the most glorious moments in modern pop. Bringing old school back.
Don't take the v@ccine trust in the LORD ALMIGHTY!.
JESUS is coming soon and JESUS is the only way to salvation accept JESUS as your LORD and SAVIOR today!
@@Disciple_777 No
@@Disciple_777 jesus doesnt exist
@@JuanCruz-jq9md take heed please
Why are all his songs so addictive you can’t just stop listening after u’ve listened it once
They have that underlying 80s feel to them. And music in the 80s was just magic.
For sure but they mix up the modern music with the 80’s and i think its very very difficult to do but the product is insane
@@mohsinshah7117 There's a genre for that and it's called synthwave. The instrumental for many of his songs is synthwave with vocals on top. Which kinda makes it into synth-pop. I like synthwave on it's own but I also like the sound of the human voice, so this guy is pretty much exactly what I need from music right now.
You seem to have a sound knowledge of music man
To Late ..
After hours is one of the best albums so far in 2020. He has to get nominated for some Grammys
That's the best song I've ever heard from Weeknd. I'm literally addicted it.
Same
Yeah this song is awesome and underrated.
