#HouseofBalloons #TheWeeknd #XOTWOD
10 years ago, the internet gave birth to a mysterious R&B crooner who surfaced the internet from the unknown, debuting a masterpiece, "House of Balloons". This was a strange and unusual sound I was unfamiliar with... but I couldn't get enough of it. Around this time, I had just begun working on my channel releasing piano arrangements when I decided to give Abel's body of work a chance. It felt raw and honest. Rather than arranging top 40 songs, I decided to arrange The Weeknd's music as I connected with his work on a musical standpoint. So in hindsight, I guess you can say there wouldn't be 'The Theorist' without The Weeknd's 'House of Balloons'. So I present you the House of Balloons Piano Medley. Thank you Abel for inspiring this pianist and getting me to where I am today. Thank you to Doc McKinney and @illangelo. for producing an incredible album I hold dearly til this day. And thank you, the supporters who have stuck with me since I began this journey. XO 'till we overdose. Enjoy.

Abel would be proud bro
Starboy next ?
Oh well I just realized I've been listening to your covers for eight years now and I just want to thank you. There's a lot of times I'm feeling down and your covers make me want to sing along and I don't know, you're just amazing, I love you. Keep doing what you love and xotwod.
I fell absolutely in love with Abel and haven't stopped listening since. He has by far been my favorite artist.
We are so proud of you! XOTWOD.

Thank so much for doing this 😩🖤 XO
we are so much spoiled, love this man
Mannnnnnnn thank you😭
I thought this was for the song HOB but to my surprise… wow it’s the whole tape. Love it 🙏🏼
That is so wow
The Knowing is and will be one of The Weeknd's most emotional songs ever.
yes and I rly felt it thru the theorists version🥺
Literally
that one and privilege will forever be my go-to songs for when i wanna dive deep into the pits of sadness
for me it's house of balloons it's less about relationships and more about the deep feels but the knowing is about him getting cheated on by a girl and pretending that it doesn't hurt but it does even though he did the same thing as her in the past so i guess it is emotional to a level.
My favourite track from him. So raw.
petition for the full version of house of balloons/ Glass table girls 👀✨
The Weeknd and The Theorist
Name a more iconic duo. Absolute perfection as always 👏🏾
😎😎
None
PLEASSSEEEE do a cover on house of balloons/glass table girls it was beautiful on the piano!
We need a full cover of house of balloons/glass table girlssss!!!!! This is freakin amazing
XO fam, where you at!?
🥰🥰
XOTWOD
XOTWOD 🥰🥰
XOTWOD.
XOTWOD.
The transition from high for this to wicked games is incredible. Absolutely amazing.
Couldn't agree more!
We're happy here, in a happy house!!!
this isssss a happy house ^_^
I’ve been playing piano for about 12 years now and I’ve been watching your videos ever since you made that cover of Partynextdoor’s Kehlani’s Freestyle and I just want to let you know how much of an impact you’ve had on me. You’re the reason why I started to love piano as much as I do now. The Weeknd is my favourite artist and you are the one who introduced me to his music. I‘ve bought all of your sheet music of his songs plus so much more. To this day I still play your cover of Young and Beautiful every time I sit down to play. You really have played such a big part in my love for piano and music over the years. You’ve grown so much since then and I can’t wait to see what else you do, your talent is amazing and thank you so much for sharing it with us all🤍
Thank you man. Really means a lot and I do remember you supporting for quite a while and still amazes me you're still here til this day showing love on my videos! Appreciate it bro
Aoife, irish ?
The Man been watching for about a year and I can say. YOU NEVER MISS. This finna be litty 🔥
Wildly impressive 🔥
Thank you bro
I actually shed a tear, so many good memories
Loved this! Pls do My Dear Melancholy 🙏
Me: *looks at my hand*
Hands: don’t look at me
lmao
This is going to the top to my ‘to learn’ list, along with the other thousand songs
When you have been playing piano for 8 years and you still not even good as that you realise how talented this man is
I’ve been subbed to you for such a long time ago and found you through your cover of Marvins Rooms years and years ago. Saw that you were also a massive fan of The Weeknd and the Hip-Hop/RnB scene back then so I had to subscribe. Now you have more than a million subscribers and made this awesome tribute so I guess its come full circle.
Keep doing you brother, it’s honesty amazing!
Thanks bro 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Are you going to do a Echoes of silence Tribute or a Thursday tribute? Nevertheless, this was like heaven to my ears, thank you X'O till we overdose
Planning to yes.
@@TheTheorist that would be soooooo awesome
&& hopefully KISSLAND when it’s time
Premieres in 47 hours, damn I thought it was 10 am today
LOL
you HAVE to do a separate cover for HOB/GTG, pleaseeeee
Shieeeet I may just have to.
@@TheTheorist please :)
please@@TheTheorist
We all have been waiting for it.
😎😎
NO WAY DID I JJST COME ACROSS THIS OMGGGGGG XOTWODDDD 🤍🎈 (the morning will always be my fave x)
One of my all time favs as well
THIS IS GONNA BE CRAZY
this is my comfort video i watch this at least twice a month
Thank you SO much for making this! I have always loved your covers, but the fact that you appreciate Abel's music so much as well really means a lot. I'm going to listen to this on repeat for sure.
Thank you! ❤️

I literally can’t believe this. This is beyond a MASTERPIECE.
Appreciate it!!
listening to high for this literally gave me the same feels I had when I first heard that intro song back in 2011 when I was in madrid
you did everything perfectly. i hope abel sees this man!
Let's hope so!
Got tears in my eyes.. so beautiful!! XO
Gosh this was much needed. So epic that you included all 10 songs form House of Balloons.
HOB will always be my favourite body of work by any artist ever. no other project has stuck with me longer than it has
Same...
The whole set was brilliant. At first I was confused about why you chose to play them out of order but it was orchestrated beautifully. I think closing with The Party & The After Party was the right choice. Thank you!
You're most welcome :)
been watchin' since the OG weeknd covers from way back. This is crazy!
This was amazing. Thank you for appreciating abel as much as i do
DUDE you have got to make a full house of balloons tutorial !!! that was perfect
High for this:
You don't know what's in store
But you know what you're here for
Close your eyes, lay yourself beside me
Hold tight for this ride
We don't need no protection
Come alone, we don't need attention
Open your hand, take a glass
Don't be scared, I'm right here
Even though, you don't roll
Trust me girl, you wanna be high for this
Wicked games:
I left my girl back home
I don't love her no more
And she'll never fucking know that
These fucking eyes that I'm staring at
Let me see that ass
Look at all this cash
And I emptied out my cards too
Now I'm fucking leaning on that
Bring your love, baby, I could bring my shame
Bring the drugs, baby, I could bring my pain
I got my heart right here
I got my scars right here
Bring the cups, baby, I could bring the drank
Bring your body, baby, I could bring you fame
And that's my motherfucking words too
Just let me motherfucking love you
Listen, ma, I'll give you all I got
Get me off of this, I need confidence in myself
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ohh, yeah, ohh
Listen, ma, I'll give you all of me
Give me all of it, I need all of it to myself
Whoa-whoa, whoa
So tell me you love me
(Only for tonight, only for the night)
Even though you don't love me
(Oh-whoa, oh-whoa)
Just tell me you love me
(I'll give you what I need) Ohh-yeah
(I'll give you all of me)
Even though you don't love me
(Oh-whoa) Yeah, yeah
(Oh-whoa) Yeah, yeah
House of balloons:
Yeah, yeah
Been on another level since you came, no more pain
You look into my eyes, you can't recognize my face
The morning:
Listen, listen
From the mornin' to the evenin'
Complaints from the tenants
Got the walls kickin' like they six months pregnant
Drinkin' Alizé with our cereal for breakfast
Girls callin' cabs at dawn quarter to seven
Sky's gettin' cold, we're flyin' from the north
Rockin' with our city like a sold out show
House full of pros that specialize in the ho'in
Make that money rain as they takin' off they clothes
Order plane tickets, Cali is the mission
Visit every month like I'm split life livin'
Let the world listen
If a hater's caught slippin'
Then my niggas stay tight
Got my back like Pippen
Fast life grippin'
Yeah, we still tippin'
Codeine cups paint a picture so vivid
Fakes try to mimic
Get girls timid
But behind closed doors they get poles so rigid
All that money, the money is the motive
All that money, the money is the motive
All that money, the money she be foldin'
Girl, put in work, girl, girl, put in work
Girl, put in work, girl, girl, put in work
Girl, put in work
The knowing:
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, yeah, yeah, ey
I know what you did
I know
So I'ma let you
Taste her
I ain't washing my sins
I ain't washing my sins
Now we're lyin' about the nights
Hidin' all it behind the smiles
Take a look at what you did (Ey)
You probably thought that you'd break my heart (Oh-o-oh)
You probably thought that you'd make me cry
But, baby, it's okay
I swear it's okay
'Cause I know everything, ye-yeah
I know everything, yeah, yeah
I know everything, ye-yeah
I know everything, ye-e-eah, ye-e
Coming down:
All alone
All alone
All alone
All alone
I'm so wrong, I'm so wrong
(To let you in my)
To let you in my home
(Now you know where I sleep)
Now you know where I sleep
(Never felt so damn weak) oh, oh
What you want:
I just want to take you there
He don't gotta know where
Does he touch you here like this, this, this, this?
Let me take the friction from your lips (Ooh, woah)
And I'ma love you girl
The way you need
Ain't no one gon' stop us
Ain't no one gon' stop us
And I'm gon' give you girl
What you fiend
I'm the drug in your veins
Just fight through the pain
He's what you want, he's what you want
He's what you want, he's what you want
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
He's what you want, he's what you want
He's what you want, he's what you want
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
The party and the after party:
Ride wit it, ride wit it
I know you know, I know you wanna - wit it
13:06 "You always go to the party" So soothing man

The Knowing, doeu lá dentro. Lamento tantas pessoas desconhecerem o tamanho do talento e profundidade emocional estão nas musucas de The Weeknd, ele é brilhante, na composição, inspiração, voz, sonoridade, identidade visual, conceitos.

Is it normal to feel a satisfying feeling of gloominess coupled with goosebumps from the first few keys from “High For This”?
None whatsoever.
@@TheTheorist ❤️🙌🏻❌⭕️
My first ever video from you that I’ve seen and boy, it did not disappoint. I’ve seen you all around music notes, when I would take piano lessons as a kid, but I was looking for someone to cover HOB, and I was astounded by this piece of work. I hope you’re able to read this, and thank you so much. XOTWOD 💙
