The Weeknd - Sacrifice 

The whole album is a masterpiece, the transitions between some songs are mind blowing, my favourite is between Best Friends and Is there someone else? . Abel never disappoints, putting the extended version of Take my breath on the album was a brave but undoubtedly wonderful decision. You can hear the work behind every single piece, the atmosphere of the interludes leaves you with an immersive experience. It doesn’t feel like a normal album, it creates a more personal impression, it feels like you’re part of it while you’re listening.

Fact: Everyone agrees that The Weeknd is making everyone's day better with his songs

Dawn FM is my favorite Weeknd album, and I’ve been listening to him since the beginning. I don’t think this album will get the love it deserves until well into the future.

The weeknd is in my opinion the Michael jackson of the 2010s and onwards. 1. The tone of his voice is so majestic 2. Every time he performs and sings he has like an aura around him, like he is untouchable 3. All the songs give 80s-90s, mysterious and atmospheric vibe 4. Every single performance and music video is 120% and next level. What a legend!

You just know Abel is going to create the most incredible cinematics for this era 🌅🖤

Ironically, The Weeknd music is perfect for any day of the week.

*Lyrics:* I was born in a city Where the winter nights don't ever sleep So this life's always with me The ice inside my veins will never bleed My, ooh My, ooh Everytime you try to fix me I know you'll never find that missing piece When you cry and say you miss me I lie and tell you that I'll never leave But I sacrificed (Sacrificed) Your love for more of the night (Of the night) I try to put up a fight (Up a fight) Can't tie me down I don't wanna sacrifice For your love, I try I don't wanna sacrifice But I love my time My, ooh My, ooh I hold you through the toughest parts When you feel like it's the end Cause life is still worth living Yeah, this life is still worth living I can break you down and pick you up And f*ck like we are friends But don't be catching feelings Don't be out here catching feelings Cause I sacrificed (Sacrificed) Your love for more of the night (Of the night) I try to put up a fight (Up a fight) Can't tie me down (Down) I don't wanna sacrifice For your love, I try I don't wanna sacrifice But I love my time I don't wanna sacrifice For your love, I try I don't wanna sacrifice But I love my time My, ooh Oh, baby I hope you know that I, I tried Oh, baby I hope you know I love my time (I don't wanna sacrifice) (I don't wanna) I try (I don't wanna sacrifice) (But I love my) My time My, ooh My, ooh

This album is super vibes of Daft Punk and Michael Jackson, a futuristic and eighties aura at the same time, what art, excellent translation...

I love that The Weeknd is trying to bring back that disco feeling mixed with the music of this decade. Absolutely love it

This Weeknd album is a different era in the music world. At the beginning I just listened to the album without a thread and found it strange at first, but this morning during my walk I listened to the album from beginning to end and I have to say: Wow. It was made with so much love. Every detail is on point. It just makes you feel good on the Dawn FM radio station and just makes you want to go out and dance. Weeknd is one of the most kick ass artists of our generation in my opinion, and I'm lucky to be alive in his lifetime. Awesome!

Simply the best and charismatic voice of the century hands down!! Weeknd is so dope. I can't stop watching this track again and again. I am sure he will be #1 soon due to 💖 a u t h e n t I c v i e w s 💖

Simply the best and charismatic voice of the century hands down!!

This album becomes a part of you… it syncs with you.. he is nothing like other artists, he drops quality and quantity. Abel, the earth is 5 billion years old, and I’m just grateful to be living at the same time to witness and listen to beautiful piece of art. 🔥

He must have a whole world in his head, because his scenarios seem so real and connected to every single album he does... so catching

i love the juxtaposition of the disco beat and the sad bridge/chorus. the eerie/psychedelic visuals bring the two together. he wants this person to keep loving him, presumably because it keeps him going… but not as much as his solitude does. nothing seems to trump that, because it’s his most natural form, the easiest route to serenity. love, and the vulnerability that comes with sharing your heart with another is a foreign concept. an invasion… of peace.

My father always said… “Life isn’t fun without a struggle in it, but some struggles lead to tragic endings.”

Huge Michael Jackson Thriller vibes he even pays homage by not just the beat and the style of singing but also the dance moves at end of the vid❤️🔥💯

The reason why this bassline is so damn bouncy is its absolutely goated syncopation. The bass only plays along on beats 2 and 3, but not 1 and 4. The result is just this crazy groove that never gets old. Good shit Abel.

The fact this doesn’t have 100 million is a CRIME!

Imagina tener tanto talento al grado que te lleva a otro mundo tu música y lo que escribes, un sueño para muchos y una realidad para Abel.

The Weeknd is in his prime right now. Jim Carrey is perfect as the narrator.

Weeknd has that Michael Jackson vibes on these Retro songs & it’s sounding awesome 🔥🔥

Wrestlemania 38 couldn't have done it without his song

This dude has been in his prime since he started this journey

I love that The weekend is trying to bring back that disco feeling mixed with the music of this decade. Absolutely love it.

80's retro style still has a vibe😍

THE WEEKEND MAKES THE 80s LOOK COOL AGAIN

This man struggled for ten years in Toronto. Then daft punk a german group of killer sound technicians joined with him.They are amazing together right!

Sacrifice literally entered top 1 after 10 minutes of being first played on stream. I’ve been listening to it since the beginning, can’t wait to see more of the story, you’re a legend!

This jam is giving me 80's Michael Jackson vibes and I am down for it! Love this song!!!

How did this track not get a billion views

This song always remind me of WrestleMania 38🖤✨️

Until I bleed out is the final song on after hours and at the end of the music video he's on the floor. This music video starts off with Abel in some sort of plane between life and death. He sees a light (the dawn) and goes towards it leading him to wake up on the floor in some new world. It signifies a new beginning and this continuation between albums is why I love the weeknd.

The whole album is more than fantastic. The scenes in which transitions are used are perfectly timed. AMAZING $!!!

This is one of those songs that if I said I could play it 50 times in a row & never get sick of it, I’d be telling the truth!!! ❤

You just know Abel is going to create the most incredible cinematics for this era

When you think current music will never be as good as the oldies, you have music from The Weeknd to give you hope.

this whole album is just as Abel described. I really feel like I'm kinda dancing while driving thru a tunnel that never ends and I love that feeling and the breeze... it's calm and exciting at the same time and I'll get to the light when it's time. then Phantom Regret comes on and I know the time has come cause it hits HARD like a bright light in my face - but I'll just listen to the whole album again and again. and I can't stop listening. it's mesmerizing.

WrestleMania 38 Vibes😄

This song hits at next level during midnight drives,i feel like singing this song on the road with my car parked on the side of the road Thank you The WEEKND for masterpieces like blinding lights ,the hills ,i was never there and many more ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

His voice is so terrific. Abel is someone who is always developing, never stops! he pulls his thing through, therefore all of his songs are hits. Respect!

This sound is chilling, the entire era in fact, the evolution of each era is notorious, simply brilliant.

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: (Hebrews 9:27) I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. (Isaiah 66:4) And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:15) I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. (Luke 13:5)

Weeknd just never misses, this is fire!

This album is refreshing, reminds me of Michael Jackson, Prince, so much taken from the 80s and I fucking love it. The Weeknd and his team killed it! 😩🎶

One of the greatest voices in today's music and this is coming from someone spoiled by the golden ages of music !❤I love the Weekend!❤

A year on and this song is criminally underrated and so is the album

The Weeknd’s songs always put you in different moods

Song = MASTERPIECE The Weeknd = MASTERPIECE

Why this song is not on a billion views I will never understand. Let's take it to a billion views. 🔥🇪🇹

This must be like the official Wrestlemania album.

the choreography, visuals, and storytelling matches the 80s style too fucking well. feels like a reimagined video from that era

This song gives me a lot of "Da Funk" vibes. I loved it. If you are a Daft Punk fan, it's impossible not to love this album.

i’m gonna miss the weekend era but i can’t wait for the abel era

Weekend is the new MJ of todays music. No question about it. Not saying he is as good but he is as good as it gets

In my opinion, there are no bad songs on this album, I love all of em Love Dawn FM

The Weeknd is like the MJ of modern pop music, his music sounds and feels so good

This is a fantastic song! 😃

Abel deserves the Hollywood walk of fame star ...he is a legend!!!!!!❤

The Weeknd just doesn’t seem to miss. Not only is he one of the most consistent artists in the industry, but he is able to pump out albums without having to sacrifice the quality nor starve his audience by waiting too long to drop. He’s always perfectly positioned in the sweet spot. It’s something I greatly admire as an aspiring artist myself. God knows I don’t have any where near the talent Abel possesses, but my goal for this year is to just improve the quality of my beats and create the best music I am capable of, even if it never matches up to this masterpiece of an album. Just happy to be a part of the same universe, even if I never have more than 500 fans! Love you Abel! Thanks for another classic album!

I kinda get Thriller vibes from this

every time i hear this i think about how epic wrestle mania 2022 was 😃

The Weeknd doesn't need The Grammys, because The Grammys needs The Weeknd.

I'm loving the 80s vibe in his recent music. I'm a pure metal head but man I'm a sucker for 80s

He can actually win a Grammy every year because his music so dope

still a banger in 2024

Even "take my breath" and "sacrifice" is enough to like this album two absolute bops

Album takes me to another level sacrifice reminds me of Jackson 5 with nostalgic 70s disco beats. Will have it on repeat. The man is a genius .

I’m gonna tell my kids that this man carried good music for a whole generation.

This guy has propelled the music industry in a new era, insane stuff

The best song by Dawn FM, it takes you to another universe as soon as you listen to it

WrestleMania 38 Theme song I'm Here In 2024 After That Event

*I was born in a city* *Where the winter nights don't ever sleep* *So this life is always with me* This part gives me goosebumps Edit: Thank you for all the likes!!

There’s not a single skippable song on this album. It just flows all together. Modern Motown & 80s Japanese pop style that’s dark. Telling a thematic story. While having Jim Carey narrate like it’s the 60s with outer space radio host & channel. People don’t understand how unique & great this album is! Probably my favorite 1.

The Weeknd 2024💯✅🔥

I love the introduction sounds like thriller ❤️

The Weeknd is one of the only few who carries the essence of artistry in this era of music. Its like he dissects from our favorites of the 80s-90s & gives a refreshing approach toward the craft. You can tell he does his homework. You can only respect it.

Words will never be able to express how amazing this man is. He is super creative, intriguing, mysterious, dark, gory, yet beautiful. There really is beauty behind the madness. The album is incredible. Just listening to this song makes me want to listen to the whole album again. I love how his music videos are like episodes. They pick up where they left off, but into a different video and different song, but they all are connected, and correlate in some form or fashion. He's brilliant, and handsome. That's a dangerous combo. No one will ever hold a candle to Michael Jackson, but a lot of things that The Weeknd does, definitely reminds me of MJ. Abel is something special, in every way imaginable and possible. ❤

THE MOST STUPENDOUS WRESTLEMANIA 38

As to how this hasn't hit a billion views yet is surprising, it's a visual and musical masterpiece!

The transition to the chorus is so seamless and smooth, production on the entire project is so gracefully and lovely

The Weeknd bringing back the 80's.

I have been listening to this song on repeat for almost an entire year last year! I This song has been my all-time favorite from him ever since they day the album released. Happy 1st Anniversary Dawn FM! 🌅

Why Abel's voice sounds similar to Michael Jackson and his singing style and aura matches with Daft Punk? ❤

Anyone else instantly hear the musical break in Thriller? Don’t know if it’s officially sampled but so much MJ influence here. So good.

You put a little bit of M. Jackson, Prince, David Bowie and Daftpunk in a cocktail and you get something like The Weeknd. And yet you try another of his cocktails on the next single and it tastes different to you. This man never stops innovating.

Didn't except this to be a sequel to "TAKE MY BREATH"

The tone of this is just like MJ's Thriller. Love it

I love how The Weeknd reinvents himself by creating portals into alternate realities within the same dimension. His music is the manifestation of a past future; it is heavily dependent on reaching into the antiquity to fund futuristic treasures that provide the latex that binds together his vision of a tomorrow in the eighties. This is an example of the futuristic nostalgia that bends all laws that dictate time and space.

The way The Weekend's songs are so unique just makes listening to them so worth it😌

bro is it just me or this sounds like MJ thriller

Thanks WWE that is was the Wrestlemania 38 theme

45M views?!? 🤔 This should have at least 1B views. This song is seriously amazing! Great album too!

From what I gathered so far: Dawn FM is The Weeknd's older self essentially warning his younger self to slow down with the fame and everything that comes with it (the rush). Also admitting regrets and telling his younger self to do better. Jumping back, older self is stuck in Purgatory and he has to review all his mistakes. It's phenomenal when you know how it pieces together. The more you listen, the clearer it becomes. It's crazy how this mimics how After Hours was initially viewed versus how it was later understood throughout the week.

i know one day we’re gonna miss this weeknd era

How I wish Micheal could hear this rn

I'll never forget that I heard this song at WrestleMania 38 🩵

The Weeknd/Abel is the best thing to happen to our generation. For everyone who weren't alive to see MJs greatness. I expect this is how it felt.

I love the retro feel, so sick

Don’t sacrifice your love weekend 🥺💙
