I'm not gonna lie. My tier list would look every day different. There is always another The Weeknd song that catch me. Faith is perfection & my number one for a while now.
DD was one of the most daring acts, a new artist can make at the time. It was borderline, career suicide. That's why Abel put as an acronym which probably the best opening track was a cover from the greatest artist of all time.
My TOP 5 from him are 1) FAITH (GREATEST) 2) After Hours (Addictive) 3) Price on my Head 4) Wasted Times 5) Earned It New but one of the most beautiful song is Out of Time 💙 it'll be soon top 3 for me
Out of Time’s definitely an outlier here. The Jim outro is the only part of the song that I really like, because it introduces Here We Go... Again, one of my favorites off of Dawn FM.
1. Starboy 2. Party monster 3. Often 4. Six feet under 5.Heartless 6.lost in the fire Just how my weeknd's playlist seems to start. But at present is there someone else? is on repeat it's been a week.
Does nobody like Blinding Lights anymore? That’d be in my top 5. And I know it’s not a strictly a The Weeknd song. But god damn Moth To A Flame is so good as well.
Blinding Lights is probably still a top 10 song for me. I hate that so many people seem inclined to hate it just because it’s his most popular song. It should be a blessing that one of his most popular songs is one of his best.
LOVE THIS concept of a video, coming from a huge weeknd fan since 2013. Personally my songs would look a lot different and that’s the beauty of it. LIKE THIS if Ernest should do one for Drake as well 🔥🔥🔥🔥
As a long term fan, how do you feel about faith? Personally, I think people in the chat have it WAY overhyped, I think it's one of his best songs in years with After Hours, but it just doesn't hold up to cuts like XO/The Host, Wicked Games, Coming Down, etc...
Little fact: The first lines of professional: It's ideal, oh You need someone to tell you how to feel And you think your happiness is real There's so much more the world has to reveal But you choose to be concealed So you're somebody now But what's a somebody in a nobody town I don't think you even know it So you're somebody now But what's a somebody in a nobody town You made enough to quit a couple years ago But it consumes you It's everywhere you go And just the thought alone got you trippin' Got you losin' your mind And I don't blame you It's everything you know But I, own this time, this ain't new Now, I decide when we're through are actually the weeknd singing to Abel
My Top 10: 1 and 2 are interchangable- 1. XO/ The Host 2. House of Balloons/Glass Table Girls 3. Wicked Games 4. Tears in the Rain 5. After Hours (title track) 6. Coming Down 7. The Zone 8. Pretty 9. Kiss Land (title track) 10. King of the Fall Honorable MENTIONS: The Hills, Faith, High For This, Birds pt. 2, Lonely Star, Initiation, Love In The Sky, Same Old Song, Rolling Stone, Alone Again, Until I Bleed Out I might have forgot some plus the more I think about this the more I wanna change it so I'm leavin it
Aw mann here it is: 1. After Hours 2. HOB/Glass table girls 3. Faith 4. Sacrifice 5. I Feel It Coming But on a different day.. would have Alone Again, Adaptation, Die for you or Tears in the Rain inserted in that list. Lol. But- ahh..maybe How do I make you love me, too?!
1. Professional 2. Twenty Eight 3. Tears in the rain 4. Next 5. Adaptation And "Kiss land" is easily topping the "best albums from the weeknd" list for me.
ayyye! my comment got a zoom in on initiation lol this stream was so fun to celebrate abel on his birthday and all that he's gifted us through the years
I’m going to do this for Travis, you have all the credit for this incredible idea, especially during March madness season. Alone Again would’ve won in my book but FAITH is like that ‼️💯
My top 1. I was never there 2. Alone again 3. Nothing compares / Until I bleed out (can't. choose either) 4. The birds pt 1 and 2 (can't choose) 5. Adaptation (for his ft : skeletons)
High For This should’ve won against Faith. Both are incredible, but High For This being the beginning of everything just nudged it ahead for me. This was awesome 🖤
I listened to the first 4 or so albums on repeat some years ago. My favs are still Lonely Star, Starboy, High for This, The Birds Part II. He has so many good ones, but I mostly can't separate them from each other, i just listen to a playlist and get the vibes.
Hardest To Love Save Your Tears Try Me Call Out My Name HOB/GTG Is There Someone Else? Sacrifice? The Knowing Rolling Stones In The Night Also Rocking, Shameless and Often.
1.Faith 2. Escape from LA 3.Shameless 4. Wicked games 5. In the night That’s my top 5 if they don’t have to go though the bracket. It’s my personal list but I think it’s solid.
Missed the livestream but man, this video brought all the vibes. If you’re XO, you may not agree but you have nothing but respect for the choices bc Abel has yet to miss.
Tears in the rain is a slapper and it being based on blade runner makes it even better. I love the cyberpunk vibes of kissland and tears in the rain referencing the best cyberpunk movie of all time makes me appreciate the song even more.
Haha i’m so obsessed with him i did his entire discography which leaves his features. Matchups started with 110 or something like that and it took me a day. I was literally flying in heaven playing that bracket the entire time. My final two were adaptation and faith. And adaptation won
it’s still so ridiculous to me that is there someone else washed initiation… like i get that is there someone else is relatable and all that but initiation is one of the most intense songs i have ever heard how does it not completely body is there someone else????
Faith used to be my favorite song by him for a while. Then, I started liking False Alarm (yes, the song that everyone in the fandom hates) and Until I Bleed Out after seeing how impressive their music videos both were. But, after letting Kiss Land marinate on me, although After Hours is my favorite album by him overall, Belong To The World is easily now my favorite. I just felt some weird connection to it that I didn’t feel from any of his other songs, even though it’s about him falling in love with a stripper he knows doesn’t deserve him, or any other man, for that matter. The music video also seems really well done, even with how early on he made it in his career.
Great vid but I´m highly questioning the selection of the songs. There are so many bangers that were left out. How f.e. Blinding Lights, probably his greatest hit ever, is not in there is beyond me.
I’ve been listening to Abel since the earliest days, his first works were beautiful, but I think nostalgia and the idea of the songs being “OG” make them sound better, as a musician, it seems that way
i love Faith but Heartless is better because Faith is too depressing for me and it makes me feel like im going backwards and Heartless makes me feel like im moving forward in my life
Awesome video Tough bracket Almost impossible to pick between lots of these amazing tracks that just speaks how extraordinarily amazing The Weeknd is And let's be honest a lot of amazing tracks weren't even part of this tournament heartless, house of Balloons/glass table girls, ordinary life, in your eyes, Hurt you, Gasoline, Belong the world and the new instant classic Less than Zero Abel was right when he said catalogue looking legendary Damn he's toooo good
Got dammit, that was one of the best brackets I’ve witnessed. I was heartbroken when Wicked Games was taken out but the final four were S teir Weeknd tracks
