    A family friend of mine used to live next to Abel and he said that he always looked like he was lost in his own world and in pain. I think that his music (the old stuff) really portrayed that feeling well.

    Weeknd is the only artist that makes me feel homesick for a place I am not even sure exists, miss someone I've never met. I've had feelings like this for a long time, his music is exactly how those feelings sound, if that makes any sense.

    This Abel to whom I'd listen to all night; and still do, everyday.
    But id rather listen to the same old tracks for the rest of my life instead of having Abel struggling to life like he did back then. I'm happy for him and if you're reading this; I'm proud of you. You're an angel with a real taste.

      Hey Guys, I’m a big fan of The Weeknd and I just made a motivational video about his life and career and I would really appreciate you guys checking it out. I really put a lot of dedication and effort into this video to make it the best I can and my goal is for Abel to hopefully see it or at least hear about it. So if you can just do me a solid as a fan and check it out that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much and I hope everyone stays safe!!

    The first song I heard of The Weeknd in 2011.
    It was on radio in Ghana (West Africa) and I couldnt catch the artists name.
    All I remember were the line 'Tell me you love me, only for tonight'.
    Damn, I googled that line till I found that song.

      Kait Scott I agree I thinkcuz all he fame came he didn't feel comftorable with so many people seeing this side of him so he tried to make it way less dark but it's pretty sad really like I love all his old music, not saying it's bad rn it's really good but I miss him being personal. Big fan of his ❤️

    LYRICS:
    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
    Uh, let me see you dance
    I love to watch you dance
    Take you down another level
    And get you dancing with the Devil
    Take a shot of this
    But I'm warning you
    I'm on that shit that you can't smell, baby
    So, put down your perfume
    Bring your love, baby, I could bring my shame
    Bring the drugs, baby, I could bring my pain
    Oh, I got my heart right here
    Oh, 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, ayy
    So let me motherfucking love you
    Listen, ma, I'll give you all I got
    Get me off of this (off of this), I need confidence (confidence) in myself
    Ohh, oh, ayy, ayy, ayy
    Listen, ma, I'll give you all of me (ooh)
    Give me all of it, I need all of it to myself
    I need all of it, so tell me you love me, yeah
    (Only for tonight) Ohh
    (Only for the night)
    Even though you don't love me, yeah
    (Oh-whoa) Ohh
    (Oh-whoa)
    Just tell me you love me
    (I'll give you what I need) Ohh-oh

I really put a lot of dedication and effort into this video to make it the best I can and my goal is for Abel to hopefully see it or at least hear about it. So if you can just do me a solid as a fan and check it out that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much and I hope everyone stays safe!!

    something about this song just strums the gently swayed strings of my heart, and with every strum i feel that i’m coming closer and closer to the edge of tears. i feel like he really pours his heart into music, i can feel it so deeply, transcending through every aspect of everything he creates. this is the second song i’ve listened to him and he’s definitely going to be one of my favorite artists 🥺. this makes me want to kiss a random stranger and love them so deeply in those moments, and never see them again. i love how music can express the words that we struggle to say, it’s so beautiful that we have access to people who are capable of making… magic.

    What an artist man, so unreal how good this guy is, his vocals and lyrics are so raw, dark, and beautiful. I will never stop listening to him on the daily, there hasnt been one day in the past year and a half that i havent listened to him, thanks to my girlfriend i got to dig deeper into his music and im so hooked, i have his vinyls, posters, merch, im actually obsessed, his concert in NJ was the first concert i ever went to, and it was the greatest night of my life. this man will never miss, his music is so so so good, not a single bad song on any of his official albums, and unreleased eps, even when he was Kin Kane, i love this guys music.

    Bring the drugs, baby, I could bring my pain
    Oh, I got my heart right here
    Oh, 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, ayy
    So let me motherfucking love you
    [Hook]
    Listen, ma, I'll give you all I got
    Get me off of this (off of this), I need confidence (confidence) in myself (Ooh, eh, ehh)

      Aboood165 Yeah they might be in different Genre's but they speak about the same stuff. The Weeknd sings about Sex, Money and Drugs. Rappers rap about Sex,Money and Drugs. My comparison is valid.
