The amount of callbacks, references and easter eggs to past chapters is insane. First off the actual house of balloons with deflated balloons everywhere. The overhead rotating shot of young Abel as his hair changes to all his famous old styles. Then the reflections of himself and how he looked throughout those past chapters and the end. This album is going to close The Weeknds story beautifully and create a finale we will remember forever
Yeah
and the animation and all was amazing dude
hats off to the team who did it
Balloons! That's what those were. I was wondering what was on the floor. I get it. House of Balloons album
@kaivalyajoshi5595 I believe it's mainly one person who does it, a friend of Abel's, Evan Larsen

I love how this isn’t just “he is releasing a new album because it’s his last as The Weeknd.” you can tell this album is very special to him. It’s thought out but not just to satisfy his fans. It’s a new era but also a new him.
Why everyone is talking about the last "The Weeknd"?
@@GM-yz1wc he stated that he wasn’t going to be producing music under his stage name anymore. He isn’t retiring.
@@skylarisundercoverwhere did he say that?
@@youdontneedtoreadthisMay 8th 2023, he stated after this album. The last in the trilogy, he will no longer use “The Weeknd” persona. You can look it up online is everywhere.
@@youdontneedtoreadthis He said it a long time ago. This is the album that kills The Weeknd
I love when artists write music just to satisfy themselves. Always makes better music. This is art. This is a great piece my boy.

This is his STORY - Story of fighting loneliness by searching for “love”. The way of portraying is astonishing...
Similar stories for lots of men nowadays.
Like a real artist as he is 😋
I think it has to be more than that, that’s all his stuff has ever been
Nah, he's trying to expose the industry. I hope
Tf how?
So many talented singers are talking about broken hearts and cheaters and people they dated in high school while Abel is talking about life and death and the after life and faith. This is why he will be remembered when a lot of his peers will fade
I guess the afterlife and other side thing is not actually death, it's some metaphor to pain and drug addiction and the severe childhood
@@sweetlevzerono it's not
@@vezon9436 okay, thank you for correcting me.
The weekend use to sing about toxic relationships and love stories also. But he uses to sing other themes.
@@sweetlevzeroyou need to listen phantom regret by jim again to understand properly
The religious vibe, the impeccable sound, the beautiful vocals, the feelings, the lyrics... It's going to be a completely new and beautiful album

@@shubhra729 sthu, mf being negative for no reason get a life

You can tell that this is a man who puts his whole heart and soul into his concepts. No other artist in history has quantified a simple music album into something so complex. The visuals, the allegories , the callbacks , the references, and most beautifully, room for owns interpretation. Each can have their own explanation for this. There’s something for everyone. He’s truly immersed himself and his fans into his world. And that’s something very few people can do.
"No other artist in HISTORY" ok ok I love Abel but relaaaaax hahaha
@@Mav3rick888honestly tryna think of one that does to this scale and complexity. pls name me one?

Didn't know you were an XO
This is so deep. Abel is the prodigal son. His inner child knows he was making the wrong decisions as the personage we know to be The Weeknd, so he is chasing his mom in an alternate reality because she was always the one ushering him in the right path from is adolescence. He finally catches up with her and for the first time he finds peace (as Abel--his momma’s baby). You can hear the song change affirm this notion. He is in his mom’s arms in God’s presence and is looking at her as if to say: “You were right, mom...I went the wrong way...this is where I always should have been.”
Beautiful ❤️
Over the years we watched The Weeknd change, his style, his music. I've been following Abel for 12 years and for me each new era he became darker and darker. I believe especially last eras were a cry for help. He often sang about fame, the prices that comes with fame, that he is not happy and himself anymore, and he is possessed by 'dark forces' of fame, how these things changed him. I deeply believe this new era will be his liberation. He became a child again, back to his mamas arms. ''They'll always find a way'' he says, but not anymore. He will be himself, 'Abel' one more time and I'm so happy and excited for it.

This is art.
Weeknd is absolutely on another level with this track! Because he caught the short on my channel about how rappers are blowing up, now his plays is off the charts.
The angelic choir and Gregorian chant tunes in The Weeknd's songs have always been my favorite.

Ik I’m so ready for it
What wake me up?
It's a leaked song
Throughout all his albums I felt he was a man of faith and took us in his spiritual journey, and now he’s back at the source!
If you listen to his music closely he tells you what side he's on despite the darkness
That's y the Weeknd is so popular despite his rather explicit lewd subject matters. He's self aware of them
@@mentlinc what side is he on? I only know his popular stuff.
@@sechabatheletsane9784 Listen to Tears in the Rain he explains it better
@@sechabatheletsane9784 Listen to Adaptation from his Kiss Land album. The "trade" he made to be famous did not sit well with him.
I swear Abel has always been the hug I needed at my worst moments. I grew up with him and living thru every era with him has been so special for me. Trilogy, Kissland, BBTM, Starboy, MDM, After Hours, Dawn fm and everything in between have taught me so much.
Seeing his constant desire to grow reminds me so much of myself, so hopeful despite the hardships life throws at you. I’m going to miss The Weeknd but I will always support you Abel! Thank you for being there for me. This is the beginning of the end. XO forever 🥺🫶🏼
whats your ig
Amen ❤🙏

sending so much love.

A modern trilogy inspired by Dante's "The Divine Comedy"; a modern take on classical themes of loss, epiphany and redemption. These are three chapters in this tale, there are the two trilogies in the weeeknd's journey, and there are millions of lives that were saved. Thank you Abel!
It’s cool that he is only making these videos like still animation pieces, because he’s reborn as a kid. That’s an awesome touch.
~IMO ONLY~ He's not reborn, he has come to terms with the deal he made with the underworld hence all the dark smoke and popped balloons~ it's the loss of innocence is the way I see it
@@karmaklutz That’s actually a good point.
@@karmaklutzhmmm great theory might be on to some there🤔
My view. The Weeknd was his way of dealing with childhood trauma.
He 'ran away'.
There's a point his inner child is holding the mask he puts on in society.
This will all be about him finding his faith again. Definitely rebirth.
We healing our inner child with this one🗣🗣🗣
Lessgooo
What distinguishes him from all others is that he really manages to create an experience through his music and man it’s captivating
Nah this last album with him as The Weeknd will be legendary. Gonna be the best trilogy and an epic closing to an amazing story of fame, pain, reflection, healing and transformation. Welcome home Abel ❤️
The beauty of this "the weeknd" and how much we have come to love this figure, is that it is only the beginning. What Able has to offer outside of "the weeknd" realm will truly be the pinnacle of expression. I very much look forward to the next phase, while clutching what we have as generational treasure.
The acoustic one is absolutely gorgeous. I am so fkn excited for this album.
Acoustic music somehow suits his voice really well. It's so beautiful.
@@jcogi If you haven't already, definitely check out his backstage warmup video. It's beautiful. I would looooove an acoustic album from him!
@@mori4133 Thanks, I will defo check it out when i got the time! Anyways, I cant wait for this album!
I have always believed, he's more than just another singer, he's a true artist. Personally, I only hope, this is not the end and we see more and more pieces coming from him
00:09
All I have is, my legacy
I been losing my memory
No afterlife
No other side
I'm all alone
When it fades to black
Fades to black
No afterlife
No other side
I'm all alone
When it fades...
There's no heavenly
Where are you now?
I know the city
Oh-oh
I love the part where he shows his mom and him its so touching
also the vocals there

Yess😭😭
And they're wearing their traditional ethiopian clothing! Love how he reps his culture!
The white cloaked figure is a representation of Jesus
Lyrics for 1:58
you can change locations
you can change your name
they will always find a way
turn your life to nightmares
ready for the chase
they will always find a way
ooooooohhhh, run away
ooooooohhhh, run away
you can ask forgiveness
even when you pray
they will always find a way
my mama told me
it'll never be the same
they will always find a way
"Run runaway, run runaway
(Abel, Abel…)" in the end
Linkin Park - "In The End" ;)
Ending it off with the home that started it all is next level cinema🗣🗣
You know.. all of Abel’s albums are fantastic but, I feel like he’s going to out do himself here. Everything about this album, everything leading up to it, gives me chills, he is truly an amazing singer, he will always be my favorite.🖤
absolutely agree on this
I think we all agree that we need this album now 😫😫
As much as I’m sad to see The Weeknd go I’m just as happy for your beginning as Abel
New Era , New album 🙏🏾
"NeW eRa"
The timing of this in my life personally was impeccable wow Abel
I’m right there with you, have had the worst two years of my 34 year existence since Dawn FM dropped and I feel like I will slowly heal with this upcoming album
2020 after hours I swear I was locked in, on the same timeline as the man in the red suit.
and I swear , I swear , drifted into purgatory and into dawn fm. I swear.
life is insane.
if you listen , if you pay attention , music can help get you on the program.
the man in the red suit was a lot of us.
thankful that we got the warning , got on the program.
and ultimately are able to confirm that everything will fade and set the controls for when it does.
thanks for being here !
you. And many others.
💔🔷🟣
I feel this too!I’m going through the same transition.I can’t wait
I reckon there are a ton of us feeling the same way. Personally it’s been scary accurate how this trilogy has related to my life the past few years. Can’t wait for this album to accompany me during this new phase in my life.
@@IVVTT
I swear … I feel that many of us were the man in the red jacket, and heard the warning in purgatory.
even down to the exact dates and time, in 2020 and 2022.
it’s hard to put into words,
other than we are truly lucky that we are on the same timeline.
I’m honored to be here at the end with you,
and with everyone.
everything will fade.
💔🔷🟣
Drugs ,pain,guilt ,shame,sins,suffering, doubt ,trauma ,depression, obsession and all your demons....they will always find a way
The wicked will live in darkness unless they come to humility and repentance of our sinful nature in need of the holy Lamb of God and his scared blood to cleanse our soul. He is using his regret, pain, suffering, etc like you said through his music as for catharsis.
this man is def in his peak rn, hands down top 5 artists of the whole 2010's decade & possibly the best in this decade so far quality wise. 🐐
he's the goat, no one put's in the work or vision no one comes even close for the work he puts in for his fans and craft.
Agree, he's the definition of quality in todays music industry. Also check out RAYE if you haven't already. Very promising artist, her debut album is insane. If you like The Weeknd, i'm pretty sure you'll like her too. Genesis. , Black Mascara. , Escapism. , Ice Cream Man. , Hard Out Here. , Flip a Swith.. Start with those, it has meaningful lyrics, art direction, cinematography and her voice, different styles are amazing.
@@StormBlessedxo i swear, this man must have some interest in film making because the way he incorporates a storyline and character in every album he drops & does it to a tee is exceptional, i'm yet to see anyone who takes albums this seriously.
@@_Alaida_ your taste in music is elite, my 21st century blues is very amazing, i actually started listening to her about a month ago & i was amazed about the quality of music, she should be getting more recognition & praise but instead people would rather listen to ice spice. 🤦🏾♂️

I see myself 70 years old, listening to The weeknd again. Im 30 now
Im 70 and have followed the weeknd’s journey from the beginning. No age barrier to listening to this man’s awesome talent
Lol I'm 40 lol I agree
I don't know how many times I've watched it, but I'm constantly crying. I have never experiensed anything like this and you were able to share your childhood trauma with everyone.abel you are my hero✊️
He is making the universe collapsing with his voice
This is literal Art. He is the only artist who puts that much thought into his pieces
yeah no youre pushing it
This should teach all of us to not hold on to the past it may have been good times or bad but sometimes it’s time to move on and grow into something greater to accomplish things and not hold on to pain
He left with a fire album came with a fire song 😍

THE BIGGEST ARTIST OF OUR GENERATION
I accualy think this album could be one of the best he made so far
A mother's love always makes us return to our roots, who we really are, the purest love there is.
YESSSSSSS!! THIS!!!!
From the heartbeat intro to the acoustic vocals, it just hits the soul and mind differently ✨
The last part with the guitar is so good, that is going to be my fav track on the album

you're already calling your favorite song lol relax man, he said this chapter is longer than others.
@@StormBlessedxo I know but I'm hyped af
I have a feeling that last song with the guitar is going to be the save your tears/ less than zero of this album
the way he tells personal stories through catchy melodies, appealing to his day ones and new ones, truly shows he's a master of his craft and vision 🙌🏽🫡 has to be the 🐐 for me

Absolutely, let's do this! Abel, we can already sense the enchanting rhythm in it. It's clear that we need an album, no doubt about it.
This album will mark the turning point of music as a whole 🙏🙏🙏🙏
2:35 when i watched this on insta 2 days ago this made me cry. im so exited for the new album but sad because its his last as the weeknd. seeing the balloons popped in the hob, his different hairstyles representing all his albums in the clock, the outfits of all his personas in the mirrors and him and his mother made me just start sobbing. abel’s album is going to be amazing i just know it
That “run away” gives me circle vibes from posty 😭🖤
Vibes from Post Malone's "Circles" and Olivia Rodrigo's "teenage dream"
Same here 👀
"I dare you to do something, I'm waiting on you again"🔥
Bro hits us with a dark synth wave orchestra song, then a soft acoustic ballad guitar ballad
Watching this during class. Nothing can stop me
For people who are wondering what is on the ground, it's balloons (House of Balloons). Symbolizing the party's over
Thanks
The production on this one is so Soulful and faithful It's like I'm drowning in water, optimistic and nihilistic at the same time
New song from Weeknd came out,what a wonderful way to start the day.
RIGHT!!??🎉
Bro's been edging us too much
😅
once he releases we all will cry he knows that better than all so it's okay

He edged me with the song that had the beat to "Wake Me Up"
No Diddy
Who’s here after watching the livestream! Absolutely perfect!! ❤️
He is the goat
💪🏽
This smells like success.
This will be a total hit if this became a game to walk through and admire the scenery because it’s insaneeeee
I love the refrence of his first mixtape house of balloons in 1:19 and then the clock moving back 1:45 like in his last album "We're going back in time" - How Do I Make You Love Me
Feels like we're actually going back in time. And we are. I am so ready and so not ready for this album.
Second one might be a reach lol
After the clock scene, u can see that his hair changes from trilogy to present album haircuts.
Time to fix some mushroom tea
Since hearing the weeknd in 2012 for the first time...I knew we would end up hear with all the accolades and an unmatched discography for the ages. It's just a reminder of how fast time flies so live it while you can.
The violin and cello are doing their job good
1:54 this part almost broke me into emotional as it reminded me of how far i gotten in life
From seeing domestic abuse, phase of hurt back in 2017, loneliness of my highschool, covid, aunts passing, depression, healing, and now moving on.
Abel if your reading these. (Which i know your a busy singer and person of popularity)
Your music has helped me alot
And now with me moving out its a huge time
Especially leaving my mother and everyone i love as i continue my journey through life
And with close freinds i trust im proud of how far ive come in life.
As im writing this i am crying cause this album may be the last
But this album will impact me in a good way.
And since 2020 from after hours to now.
Im proud to be a fan
And going to your concert in denver changed my life to be a true fan
I hope one day ill get to see you and bring my close freinds to meet you one day.
Its okay if you dont cause in the end us XO will support you all the way.
I will miss the weeknd but i will be welcoming abel in this new chapter of a era.
As always XOKOTA XOTWOD XO24
Shut up 😂😂😂😂 don't bring your fake sobe story to the internet 🤣🤣🤣🤣
god bless u XO
ABEL IS COOKING THIS RUN WILL BE LEGENDARY! ❤
Abel's talent has absolutely no limits 👍👍👍
Anyone else started crying halfway through for some unknown reason? Beauty, depth, the universe, God, music, forgiveness. So many thoughts and feelings.

Everything about this album looks and sounds perfect. the story is just so amazing and well put together. the vocals are majestic and the sound production is on another level. this album cannot disappoint as I have heard enough to already deem it a top album of the year.
