these sessions are so shrouded in mystery. It feels like It never happened, like its demos that leaked rather than sessions. It feels like I wasn’t meant to hear it, and it’s beautiful.
i have no desire to be in a relationship, but listening to him makes me wanna get in one just to have a bad breakup and listen to his music for the pain
15:00 OMFG GOOSEBUMPS Dude i have heard every single song by Abel, even the Noise EP, every collab, single, album, demo songs etc etc. I can never get enough, like, never. He is so good. I love the mystery he creates with the sound. He is so different. Love Abel!!!
it's crazy how music can take you back to a specific moment in time. the ambiance & emotions "they all feel the same". 2010-2024 what a time to be alive
Abel is not HONESTLY the king of anything, certainly NOT The Weeknd. The composer creator producer and singer of The Weeknd is André Martins Fachada and he belongs to me, his wife, who has fought to have his name and age and genius known to the world to which Abel belongs.
Imagine being Bella and literally asking him to sing any of these to you at any time .... I can’t. I don’t get how I’m only now seeing this 😭 I’ve literally been xo since 2012. This is just so genuine and raw.
Overtures of impending disaster . Maybe it's time for a lifestyle change . Prince and Michael and Whitney. The music is better knowing he is young and still alive and not another wasted and lost talent. Let's hope not cause we should learn from the mistakes of others and recognise we are not invincible .
His music is hypnotic to a point where you can't stop listening.. in some aspects it's the most relatable, real music I've ever listened to. His music carries so many sentimental memories.. His voice and music will always be enjoyed at my highest and lowest times. Love you all XOTWOD
Couldn't put it better myself... We listened to the greats... Mj, Freddie, Prince, Phil Collins... You get something different from it every time you listen... I have not stopped listening since July 7th London Stadium tour... 80,000 people singing every word of every song send chills down your spine. Well looking forward to see what he comes with next
The words you said, I can totally relate to this.. I've had him through the worst times and I swear to god his voice always calms me fuckin' down whenever I'm not in a fine mood... I can't explain the peace he gives out to all of us X'Os ❤ I'll forever be grateful to him..thank you Abel, you stood by my side when everybody left 💔 I Love You Forever and Ever.. I don't fuckin' know why tears are rolling down my face right now ❤️🩹💔
The Zone is lyrically insane. When I first heard it and the context of him being with some other girl whilst having sex, keeping his eyes shut to feel the one he loves instead. Man.. bananas. Gets me everytime. Love u XO
His life story is truly amazing and inspiring. The challenges he faced and over came. He quickly climbed the ranks and went from broke and homeless to being one of the top celebraties with a net worth $98 million+
Every time I listen to this version of "Valerie" I literally cry in despair and of beautiful passion for some reason.. I miss this side of him so much.
Everyone all bout Wicked Games and Twenty Eight. Where the love for Montreal tho? I don’t dislike any of the songs but seriously, Montreal is great too. No, actually, not great, epic. And Valerie. Edit: whoa holy fuckin shit I been ignoring these notifs but aight- if I say thanks for the likes will that make y’all calm down?
The Instruments just compliment a lot to his voice and the vibes of each song, the eletric guitar in Montreal, the guitar Valerie, the piano in Twenty Eight... Got me goosebumped
He is very patient, its his journey and i am completly enamoured by Abel, just watching him grow within his career speaks levels to my soul that G-d would only know the depths to... complete awe. Prolificaly blessed beyond measure, i am so very proud of him.
He is truly talented. I listen to his music daily and fall more and more in love with it. He has such a pure and beautiful voice. I wish I could have found his music sooner.
No. The first song he did where his music changed was drunk in love in the beggining of 2014 just after kissland dropped. When drunk in love dropped it all changed
Valerie, Twenty Eight, and Til Dawn (Here Comes The Sun) basically all the bonus Trilogy Tracks are underrated masterpieces and my personal favorite Weeknd songs. I’ve been a fan since 2012 and I’m happy to see how big he’s gotten since those days of obscurity but part of me is happy that those three tracks are still under the radar… makes it kinda like us core fan’s little secret just like how Kiss Land is still for us core fans to enjoy while the mainstream fans eat up his new pop style
Abel’s amazing vocals nd intense lyrics help develop his mysterious character along with his dark past nd experiences. He is a true legend of rags to riches nd an artist to admire for years to come. XO til’ we Overdose!🖤
Yeah it's a good one. I actually heard it the first time when I was 28. He and I write the same way as in its almost impossible to write a happy song. It's a cathartic process. Write to get the bullshit out instead of keeping it all inside.
real fans know what a blessing it is to hear this, after "earned it" came out it was never the same. all these songs are soundtracks to the life i was living 2011-2012 thank you so much for this amazing session
1 MILLION VIEWS !!! XO XO
The half is mine 💥
@@altamir____ the other half is mine
We still here brotherrr
Then it was a million, and now it’s over a million so I will keep the rest that will be coming till further notice
Deserves a billion views, but this type of song must be and stay "undergroud" otherwise it wouldn't be that special
I’m so high I was waiting for them to move for like 2 minutes
😂😂🙌
😂😂
Bruh 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😁
😂🤣😅
same, i was like wow they are super still lol
these sessions are so shrouded in mystery. It feels like It never happened, like its demos that leaked rather than sessions. It feels like I wasn’t meant to hear it, and it’s beautiful.
its not that deep
@@thebeauty-digger Yea it is.😂
It's so deep I'm drowning in all of this.
@@thebeauty-digger lol, i know people be doing the most when they comment in these weeknd vids.
@@AngelFrmDaWic no its not, quit exaggerating..
Chill bumps, closed eyes, headphones on..... No words to express how much I love Weeknd
Nah bro , alone in your house full blast on your tv or speaker , you wouldn't want your parents girl no one home , until it's over
Love your photo bro! You know good music. 👌✊
Smoke a joint and listen lol
Ikkkk mannn abel is soo amazing 😭 #chapter 6
Word
Happiness exists when you don't know a thing
But baby imma pro at letting go,i love it when they come and go
Crazyyyy...
Ignorance is bliss my friend
It is truths like that, that make me wonder if maybe Hamlet is right.
swanny overstood
so I hope you don’t think this song is about you
Imagine if he did a trilogy/kiss land throwback tour, I really need to hear these songs live.
Agreed I hate his new music
@@jamalthompson7586his new music slaps too
I went to kissland tour and he did some of house of balloons and Thursday. Was good but concernt not as good sound as these Studio sessions.
FRRR
Damn saaame i think to this idea every single day....
i have no desire to be in a relationship, but listening to him makes me wanna get in one just to have a bad breakup and listen to his music for the pain
brandon glenn haha true
I wouldnt recommend it lol
oh
Trust me, it’s devastatingly beautiful
huh thats how good he is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
15:00 OMFG
GOOSEBUMPS
Dude i have heard every single song by Abel, even the Noise EP, every collab, single, album, demo songs etc etc. I can never get enough, like, never. He is so good. I love the mystery he creates with the sound. He is so different. Love Abel!!!
same!
bro i just searched the noise ep i had NO idea that existed woww
14:31 too
F8L valerie😍
the noise ep is awesome
Valerie is heart twisting soul breaking but in a peaceful way.
Accurate bro
Valerie fucks a man up somedays
it's crazy how music can take you back to a specific moment in time. the ambiance & emotions "they all feel the same". 2010-2024 what a time to be alive
I'll never forgive the Ad in the middle of Valerie
V A N C E D
Bro its 3 am and I was about to cry and all of a sudden i’m laughing sfm bcuz of ur comment😂😂😂😂
It's a crime really, I know everytime it's about to come
Now it's moving in the end of Twenty Eight
I went and downloaded the sound so I dont have to hear the ad 😂🤣😂🤣
Abel is honestly the king he’s helped me through so much and he belongs to the world
I see what you did there
That era of abel still give me chills
Abel is not HONESTLY the king of anything, certainly NOT The Weeknd. The composer creator producer and singer of The Weeknd is André Martins Fachada and he belongs to me, his wife, who has fought to have his name and age and genius known to the world to which Abel belongs.

Id rather shine bright as the sun than a fleeting falling star. So go the distance weekend.
''Since 2012'' Yeah that's what everyone says lol, gatekeepres are a different breed

MONTREAL. WOW.
The Zone is lyrically insane. When I first heard it and the context of him being with some other girl whilst having sex, keeping his eyes shut to feel the one he loves instead. Man.. bananas. Gets me everytime.
Love u XO
epic-tra
I love that song, it has almost the same as the zone
EXACTLY
He has the song love through her which is the same concept
Same here bro, it always gets me😭 #XOTWOD
I always considered The Zone as a sequel to Wicked Games.
His life story is truly amazing and inspiring. The challenges he faced and over came. He quickly climbed the ranks and went from broke and homeless to being one of the top celebraties with a net worth $98 million+
Jeremy DeFore thats why especially being from toronto myself, my favourite song is tell your friends. His coming of age story/song
@@6LVCKSHEEP same here
300 million now

Thank you for this video 🎈
Thank u from Turkeyyy
Thank you 🙏🏼
Yall act like it wasn't in the description
Montreal and Valerie are the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
the knowing makes me just cry for 5 minuets
twenty eight makes me get in my feels
lol you lot are a funny bunch XD
Gunny how much it would fit with the tracks in like his new project My Dear Melancholy.
The Knowing makes me cry no matter what
ANYTHING HE MAKES ME CRY OKAY :(
Every time I listen to this version of "Valerie" I literally cry in despair and of beautiful passion for some reason.. I miss this side of him so much.
he’s amazing and his new music is too but nothing compares to this era of his.
0:00 Wicked Games
4:09 The Zone
8:02 Montreal
11:52 Valerie (this one is ridiculously good)
15:34 Twenty Eight
19:06 The Knowing
no other sound has touched melancholy souls as much as his does...
I know an artist has to evolve, but nothing will top this era of work for me! So hauntingly beautiful
If you were here back then it can only make you so happy that he just performed at the f*cking Super Bowl
That guitar solo at the end of The Knowing was just orgasmic
Those strings are being strung as if the guitarist is making love to his guitar... epic s#$@
Nothing and I mean nothing can ever top him. His angelic voice is just on another level. XOTWOD 🖤
Everyone all bout Wicked Games and Twenty Eight. Where the love for Montreal tho? I don’t dislike any of the songs but seriously, Montreal is great too. No, actually, not great, epic. And Valerie.

DatCat Playz Games 🖤🖤🖤
Starflight Playz Games epic indeed !!!
Montreal is fucking lit but everyone forgets about it
Montreal is my second favorite right after coming down ❤️
Starflight Playz Games *TWO THUMBS UP!!!!!
The Instruments just compliment a lot to his voice and the vibes of each song, the eletric guitar in Montreal, the guitar Valerie, the piano in Twenty Eight...
Got me goosebumped
His music will never die !!
Rubiel Flores it’s like an immortal soul
Will never ever die, not an opinion, its fact, love your comment
Yeah!!!
XOTWOD
👍🏼 #XOTWOD 🙃
Yeah it's so true his die for you released 6 yrs ago but the song is in charts after 6yrs
Imagine a "Next" acoustic ver.
OH MY GOD😩😩❤️
next is so good i wish there was one acoustic
I would literally die if that happens 😭 that's one of my favourite songs 🥺
or same old song
NEED THAT ASAP
How can ppl dislike this? Abel is like the best
The greatest to ever grace the mic.
True 👌👌
MJ?
Facts, I think MJ had the whole package (dancing & singing), but weeknd’s vocal control is better
And I don’t give a daaaaaaaaammmnnnnn I felt the ground before.....
I left it all behind .... baby...
I didn’t need no one...
But I'm in need tonight baby, I've been alone for too long
Same
We don't deserve him😩😭 cuz he is just magnificent
wow take me back to 2012 PLZ
Alexa Nicole nah thx i looked like a ugly ass mofo back then
😢
I know he’s very popular, but man he’s very very under appreciated
true, such a voice and talent!
Vocal magician.
Can sing as well as he does in the studio
Ok , and , who cares , can he write music like this , no , nd self taught , fuck classes bro , he has talent
He is very patient, its his journey and i am completly enamoured by Abel, just watching him grow within his career speaks levels to my soul that G-d would only know the depths to... complete awe. Prolificaly blessed beyond measure, i am so very proud of him.
I would love to hear a session of Kiss Land recorded like this. Imagine Tears in the Rain, The Town, f*$@ the whole freaken album...
Exactly bro, he did bbm, starboy and trilogy live sessions but not kiss land
He did The Town and Belong To The World in Backstage Warmups
@@ctm9364 I know but it's not an official live recording it's a warmup, I mean a proper studio live session of kiss land has never happened
Kiss Land was my favorite song off the album....
I feel you mann.
The girls that are singing with him are actually really good 🫀
He is truly talented. I listen to his music daily and fall more and more in love with it. He has such a pure and beautiful voice. I wish I could have found his music sooner.
Clara Delamar same
SO much emotion was put into him performing twenty eight, i love it
This is heaven to me. Truly. All my favorite songs are here
same... 4/5 of these are my favorite
Now he’s in the Super Bowl...
they grow up so fast
Chills listening to Valerie. One of my favorites!
Dylan Delomprey I feel like it’s one of his least talked about songs but it’s seriously so important
xo till we overdose
the real the weeknd
Nico NGR debería volver a hacer este tipo de música. Es tan profunda.
Aren’t artists allowed to evolve without backlash?
No. The first song he did where his music changed was drunk in love in the beggining of 2014 just after kissland dropped. When drunk in love dropped it all changed
Nico NGR ur amazingggggg💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
M i t c h B tfym all his songs r good
These sessions are the reason the trilogy diamonds are going to be tatted on my arm for ever
I got it best decision ever !!
Lol wtf
Well to each his own
I'll never stop loving his performances, whether it be from the studio or live. #XO
if youtube dares blast another ad in the middle of Abel hitting a note in Valerie I swear on everything......
The zone sounds awesome
Stallin Records i agree its my favorite
Stallin Records I noticed in the picture of abel singing that his feet are pointed Inward
@@VampiricSavagery 🤣
Whyyyy am I just NOW finding this video???
I said the same thing.. is there more?
Same wtf!!!
You guys are about 5 years late. But better late than never I guess.
Same!
Same
Never ever ever ever gets old. Hope one day these versions get put on streaming platforms XO
I could listen to this over and over again and not get even slightly bored
I never thought I'd feel this kind of hesitation
His voice is absolutely stunning 😍
I wish they recorded him singing this 😍
They did , they just don't realise it

Still waiting boys and girls
Its Still Not Gonna Be The Same The Weekend Doesn't Sound The Same From Trilogy And Kissland
@@seanborders9560 lmao you type like shit, it's the weeknd* how tf are you claiming he ain't the same and you type "The Weekend" ??
Lmao
Still waiting😟

I don't wanna die tonight, Baby.
@Kordell Farmer hahahahah I changed that profile pic, only saw your comment now, cheers mate!
Could still listen to this all day every day, Abel voice really be so calming
2018 and all these songs are still everything. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥⚡🎧
Will never get over how crazy talented and humble Abel is. ❌⭕️
I love watching this every once in a while because of its rawness
Him singing twenty eight in this almost brings me to tears, it’s so deep and passionate
I literally listen to this every night to put me to sleep and it never gets old XO
I found this in 2018 than lost it than found it again in 2019 and I still come back to this here & there this is so perfect and peaceful ❤️ xotwod
Abel singing in French in Montreal is just so orgasmic ❤️
As a French, I find it so amazing 😉
can translate what he says to english?

over 6 years, but still legendary.
This voice and this lyrics heaven
i love this man more than anything
Twenty Eight my favorite song ever. ❤️
Jennifer Galindo mine too
All of them are so good but I think Valerie is so underrated
Yeah it's a good one. I actually heard it the first time when I was 28. He and I write the same way as in its almost impossible to write a happy song. It's a cathartic process. Write to get the bullshit out instead of keeping it all inside.
I literally cried during every song 😢😢😢
XOXO squad where yall at?!?
2011 and countin cuhh 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

The best of all time 🐐🐐🐐
The BOAT
just close your eyes and listen to his lyrics.
a i was just doing that
It’s like playing a movie in your head
I'm so addicted to this guy, don't even know how to express my addiction 😍
c'mon the knowing has to be the song that hooked me to the weeknd's music, no regrets, and the live version is actually really good
He's the only male artist able to give me full body goose bumps 🖤 XO
Came back to hear 'Valerie' 😭😍 cause I love youuu & I need youuuu
OMG, the original version of The Knowing is great but this version is simply a FXXKING MASTERPIECE.
5:55
That "get me inside my zone"
Is the most beautiful thin I've heard
The knowing version in this is so fucking beautiful 😭
The Knowing with those backing chorus is sublime.
Wow, he really killed Valerie on here. Amazing
the transitions are beautiful
XOTWOD , this y it's till we overdose , we bump this till we overdose on his music , they don't get that , till we can't take no more
Just perfect. June 2018 anybody?
