I listened to this every day during the beginning of the pandemic. It feels so crazy listening TWO YEARS later! How has it already been two years? I got chills. I was send right back to March 2020 while listening again 🤭
[Intro] Yeah [Verse 1] I've been tryna call I've been on my own for long enough Maybe you can show me how to love, maybe I'm going through withdrawals You don't even have to do too much You can turn me on with just a touch, baby [Pre-Chorus] I look around and Sin City's cold and empty (Oh) No one's around to judge me (Oh) I can't see clearly when you're gone [Chorus] I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch I said, ooh, I'm drowning in the night Oh, when I'm like this, you're the one I trust Hey, hey, hey [Verse 2] I'm running out of time 'Cause I can see the sun light up the sky So I hit the road in overdrive, baby, oh [Pre-Chorus] The city's cold and empty (Oh) No one's around to judge me (Oh) I can't see clearly when you're gone [Chorus] I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch I said, ooh, I'm drowning in the night Oh, when I'm like this, you're the one I trust [Bridge] I'm just calling back to let you know (Back to let you know) I could never say it on the phone (Say it on the phone) Will never let you go this time (Ooh) [Chorus] I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch Hey, hey, hey Hey, hey, hey [Outro] I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch
Blinding Lights is by far my favorite song of all time, even now while my parents are arguing I’m listen to this banger while working on a school project, I don’t know what it is, but this song is so good, and peaceful.
please stop hating on the creator because he didn't pin and heart The Weeknd's comment. The creator of this song is dead, he was a friend of mine. His funeral was 8 months ago, he died in the car crash. Please stop hating on him.
Blinding Lights makes me feel like I’m in an 80’s neo-scifi movie. You know that part where the cool lead character rides on his futuristic motorcycle, in his leather jacket while the rain is pouring down, just outside the huge neon city with all the skyscrapers? Oh wait, not just me? Cool 😎
Idk I like to think that I’m that same movie this song would be playing after he/she finds out that her whole life was a lie and who she was fighting for inadvertently caused all of their pain
It’s because it’s a change of how the normal version sounds to your brain. Works with any song. At the end in a technical sense the OG is better. Same thing with Red Bone
Ngl this version gives me going out on a cool summer night and just having fun vibes or dancing at a party and locking eyes with someone like in movies vibes
I love how he incorporated this on the video and I freaked out when I saw that it was really the exact same version, seeing artist acknowledge these things is so amazing
then how was the part in heartless inspired then? pretty sure he followed the theme in heartless inspired by fear and loathing. He acknowledged this, used it and that's it lol.
It's okay brudda, pray to God, only He can help you to heal, trust me brudda, I'm with you ❤️ If you need someone to talk to, you may ask me for my insta id or something also😄😌
Well one time for a song on dj hero they had the song faster and the original version was much slower but the on dj hero was much better, it was called shout mixed with pjsnoo
What I love about slowed, reverb versions of songs is that the original version sounds like a cool, upbeat scene in a movie, where the main character is having a great time. The reverbs sounds like a part of the character’s life where they’ve hit the bottom, like a depressing reprise in a musical. Or it could be a steamy make out session with their childhood crush.
Both versions of this song make me think of like travelling around a city at night, with neon lights everywhere. The song gives me the same feeling as being in an airport about to travel internationally late at night. Edit: You guys in the comments are awesome!
Words can't explain how much I relate to your comment. I had applied for admission to a University in France and even before I got my offer of admission, I had planned to play this when I boarded my flight this fall to pursue my Masters. Hopefully, I'll get to do so soon.🤞
I LOVE this. Perfect for when you want the same vibe as the original when you're just in the mood for some more chill and slower-paced music. I am glad I found it.
IM BLINDING LIGHTS VIDEO IN MINUTE 2:33 IS A LITTLE PART OF THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!! CONGRATS ABEL LOVES THIS AND HE IN A INSTAGRAM STORY PUT THIS AND NOW IN HE'S VIDEO 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
@@DominicRuiz23 The weekend, used that part in his MV because he loved it so much when he listened to it. He even promoted this video on his twitter i think.
Listening to this during the start of the pandemic made that time period feel like a dream. Other than all of the bad things that were on during that time, listening to this and the weeknd made my experience like if i was in a whole other planet

The weekend himself make a comment 8 months ago. The music video of the blinding lights was Published 7 months ago. He actually uses this slowed version in his music video. Just inconceivable, spectacular...
