Can u believe the Grammys completely snubbed him this year? This was his most gut wrenching, vulnerable, self reflecting albums yet and his most successful year in his career and they passed him right by. I’m baffled!
He’s a big cinematic with these vevo live performances are in the same set. Some music videos I recommend after these performances would be belong to the world, false alarm, and call out my name.
Hey Karen! Thank you for watching. I’ve had 3 Weeknd videos get blocked by RUclips recently ☹️ I’m working on a better way to share blocked videos. Stay tuned 😊
Yay! This is my FAVORITE song by him besides the hills. On the album goes from heartless to faith to blinding lights which makes the story so much better and heartbreaking
I saw your first reaction to The Weekend and instantly subscribed.. please Do more of his songs.. He’s has became the best artist in these past decades..
This song/video is so metal, when you think about it. Lyrics, blood coming down the walls, & phenomenal live performance. The best out there, right now.
Thanks for yet another excellent reaction video. Keep The Weeknd’s videos coming. Very happy to hear you’ll also react to the other VEVO performances - I can’t wait 😊
You should check out some of his older projects like trilogy or kissland. He had a much darker tone back then and his fandom still considers those projects his best work
i swear this man is a legend already no one does it better than him in the pop industry as a male artist. I also love his performances cause there is not too much stuff going on, it's very minimalist and yet he is still captivating and he could really stand there for hours all alone, i could still watch him :')
He’s heavily involved in every aspect. He takes part in the production of the album at every step not just writing lyrics or a tune. He loves movies as you can probably tell from the recent series of videos. So, yes he takes part in the production of the performances, I think at least
I’m just gonna come out and write it: Abel is without a doubt one of the greatest artists to emerge in the last decade, at the very least. He is PHENOMENAL. A kind of gifted artist that’s the total package, with incredible vocal ability and impeccable songwriting, performing, composition and production skills arguably unparalleled in the modern R&B/Pop era. An artist that doesn’t come around very often and that’s practically unheard of these days; unlike musical eras past. He is breathing rarified air that not many are gifted enough to ever breath. Take my breath indeed. Think Michael. Think Prince. Think Marvin. Think James. Think Aretha. Like them, Abel is destined to be iconic; we are bearing witness to the rise and prime of not just a legend, and I use this word incredibly sparingly, but an actual songwriting and musical genius. Aren’t we the lucky ones, that we get to witness it first hand.
Your comment about him sounding better live... its no joke! Obviously on the actual records its extremely refined and produced and its a masterpiece. After seeing him live a few times I completely agree with your statement. He holds it together and puts a live flare into the tracks. As someone who listens to rock and metal daily I can easily say this man vocally and creatively is on too of this generation.
he’s always been a creative genius with his visuals man.. going all the way back to wicked games, to pretty, to false alarm! i know im missing soooo many more. you gotta create a separate channel just for reactions to Abel’s videos mannnn
Your George M. (RIP to a great artist) tribute snippet “open to a coke endorsement” at the end was awesome. ❤️ it. The fact that I know that song and was a little kid when it came out, Damn I’m getting old 😂🤣
His visuals are everything and the color scheme and aesthetic play in to his character of each era of album starting from trilogy's black and white party aesthetic to After Hours dark green black and red city night life aesthetic the visuals he creates coincide heavily with the album
Yeah House of Balloons was fully blocked. I’m trying to cut it down further but after many changes it’s still getting blocked. I’ll keep trying. It was SOO good!
Is it just me, now that I've seen the vid again but I feel like the stage is like... The unconsious state? Like he talks about being in the back of a flashing car and the backing lights start flashing like when your eyes are shut but you can still sorta see the lights. It's like his consciousness inside the unconcious body. A bit morbid but that's what I was getting reminded of.
Knowing that he is a film buff(especially among the likes of Scorcese and Roman Polanski) from his older interviews, I personally think with this album from a production lens what he is trying to create or replicate are the visual and emotional experiences behind an After Hours experience. Something gnarly, magnetic, vulnerable and mystic. And I think that is his main project for this album, incorporating a cinematic hobby within his primary artistry: After Hours - The Movie. We see this with the music videos for this album(which are still not finished yet) which are all sequential with hidden messages, the character he is created and is inspired by and also the overall ambience of each of his lives. I think what happened is he was trying to experiment not just musically but also from a production standpoint with Starboy to see what works, and he finally managed to do it with this album. Honestly, I can't wait to see what he has in store for us in his album since this is already such an experience.
YOOO METAL GUY I really enjoy the way you are discovering the level of art in the music The Weeknd offers, please react to Alone Again performance it will blow up your mind!
Can you please listen to the following - initiation - house of balloons/glass table girls - Heaven or Las Vegas - False Alarm - Kissland - Professional - The Town ALL TOP TIER SONGS ( first 4 have some real heavy beats too )
I think the set design for the video is supposed symbolize a morgue. With the dark fluids dripping down the grates representing how they prepare a body for a funeral and burial. They have to drain all the blood and fluids out. Creepy stuff.
1:38 - ah, well you take a great vocalist, sing the recording live, and tweak what you need in post production in tune after without making it sound artificial. You don't think this wasn't touched after do you?

*this guy is phenomenal, i'm still mad that the grannys did him dirty*
those goddamn grannys
@@sempiternal9114 ☠️
👵
Grannys... Good Job mate
this is why we put them in a home
React to The Weeknd alone again live performances
He’s said he’s a massive horror movie fan, and obviously it shows in his videos with the gore and blood etc. In case anyone’s wondering
This is faxxx. I know he'll start writing and directing soon
@@rodpayne2957 He's gonna soon. It's confirmed!
@@rodpayne2957 now he's doing
He’s a big cinematic with these vevo live performances are in the same set. Some music videos I recommend after these performances would be belong to the world, false alarm, and call out my name.
i get chills every time I watch this performance😭it’s so good. would be great if you checked out the alone again performance too!
I don’t even listen to the studio version anymore, has to be this live version.
i had to rip the audio from all 3 videos, 'cause yes, they're so much better!
NEED to see MORE Weeknd reactions please!!
Hey Karen! Thank you for watching. I’ve had 3 Weeknd videos get blocked by RUclips recently ☹️ I’m working on a better way to share blocked videos. Stay tuned 😊
Listening to people say how phenomenal he is, makes me feel good.
Yay! This is my FAVORITE song by him besides the hills. On the album goes from heartless to faith to blinding lights which makes the story so much better and heartbreaking
I cry every time I hear the ending of the song.
I saw your first reaction to The Weekend and instantly subscribed.. please Do more of his songs.. He’s has became the best artist in these past decades..
Wow that was great. And that was live!

Yes!! I've been waiting for this! One of my favorites of his. So much emotion in this song and his delivery!
Saw him live in DC during the starboy tour and you're so on point. He somehow sounds better live than recorded
thank you for this reaction! hopefully you do the other vevo ones too 🙏
I'm so glad you got to experience this song live first! This song is amazing. But really. How is he better live!?
His voice is so good! The live performances I’ve seen are just so amazing. What a talent!
@@MetalGuyReacts The more you listen, the better it gets with The Weeknd.
Next Alone again VEVO let's goooooooooo
Seen him live 3 times and every time I see him I ask myself the same question how does he sound soo much better live then on the record 😂
such a talented performer! Thank you for sharing this.
DO ALONE AGAIN LIVE PLEASE!!!
Awesome Reaction video. Love It
Yesss so true!! Live he's like not even from this World!!!! He's more than amazing!!!! Goosebumps and tears
I liked your take and that you didn't pause all the time like other reaction videos I've watched.
i swear this man is a legend already no one does it better than him in the pop industry as a male artist.

He's true artist!
All the weekend songs in my play list are live version because it sounds much better 😂💕
React to Valerie. It's probably the most emotional song The Weeknd has ever done. His voice conveys so much pain. It's epic!
React to As You Are or Acquainted live! Love your videos been watching all night now lol
The San Jose, CA performances btw! Even if you don’t make a video, gotta hear these man

Pls react to alone again vevo live by him.
LOVE the switch up 3/4 of the way into song. After the sirens come on. Wow!
I like the fact that your reactions are genuine I enjoy what you have to say keep em coming do some mj and more weekend
LIVE!!! HES THE BEST I SAW HIM MULTIPLE TIMES AND CRIED EVERYTIME!!!
He directs it all the vids the performances everything
Co-direct it
The Vevo performances were directed by Micah Bickham.
yup weeknd has said he is a fan of old school horror movies . and that inspires his music videos
Your comment about him sounding better live... its no joke! Obviously on the actual records its extremely refined and produced and its a masterpiece. After seeing him live a few times I completely agree with your statement. He holds it together and puts a live flare into the tracks. As someone who listens to rock and metal daily I can easily say this man vocally and creatively is on too of this generation.
That Kill Em All banner looking sick though 🤘
You should react to call out my name by The Weeknd. His vocals on that song are amazing!
he’s always been a creative genius with his visuals man.. going all the way back to wicked games, to pretty, to false alarm! i know im missing soooo many more. you gotta create a separate channel just for reactions to Abel’s videos mannnn
Heartless official video too
I hope you'll checkout alone again vevo live performance, it's dope!!
After hours is so good live. I went to 2 shows of the tour
Your George M. (RIP to a great artist) tribute snippet “open to a coke endorsement” at the end was awesome. ❤️ it. The fact that I know that song and was a little kid when it came out, Damn I’m getting old 😂🤣
I don't know if you've listened to "I feel it coming" by The Weeknd ft. Daft Punk but you should, it's one of my favorites
His visuals are everything and the color scheme and aesthetic play in to his character of each era of album starting from trilogy's black and white party aesthetic to After Hours dark green black and red city night life aesthetic the visuals he creates coincide heavily with the album
can't wait for the In Your Eyes Vevo live performance reaction
I can't believe you weren't able to do the mixtapes yet! Buuut I would love to see you react to his song Wanderlust from the kissland album!!😊
Yeah House of Balloons was fully blocked. I’m trying to cut it down further but after many changes it’s still getting blocked. I’ll keep trying. It was SOO good!

I- not you singing anna at the end💀 my two favs in one video
Loved your reaction!!! React to Secrets please it is such a great song by the Weeknd bet you would love it! :)
The whole After Hours (2020) album is all fire- No skips!
