95% of new Weeknd fans probably haven't heard this underrated masterpiece. His old work will always be the best, in my opinion. (Edit) Thank you all for the likes, guys! Hope y'all are staying safe during these trying times.
Chris Orioli Medina 101 I'm so tired of hearing people talk about old fans and new fans! It's bullshit! If you're a fan, you're a fan! Just because you knew about him before some people doesn't make you special! DAMN everybody calm down already. Geeeze
Chris Orioli Medina 101 Well normally when you're a new fan of an artist you don't know all of their songs because you're recent to discovering them soo.. it makes sense. There's nothing wrong with new fans not hearing this or not liking it. It's a shame yeah, because Trilogy is a masterpiece, like you said, but I think it's unnecessary to start the whole 'new fans vs. old fans' argument. Gets pretty tiring, no?
Daedra Queen Heck no, we need to argue over this!! haha no just kidding Deadra, I understand where you're coming from. It's just my point of view; not really trying to bash on new fans honestly.
+Chris Orioli Medina 101 its kinda cool because my sister has been a FAN OF THE WEEKND for a long time she remembers when he use to give his music out for free haha
For anyone who wants to play this on guitar, here's how :) - Standard Tuning - Capo 6th Fret - - Chord Progression & Picking Pattern - Am, Em, Dm, F For each chord, pick: GBe (at the same time), then Bass Note [repeat x4 for each chord] This matches up perfectly with the piano! Repeat for the ENTIRE song! Hope this helps out! If you get stuck or need a little extra help, I just posted a video lesson for this on my channel :)
Piano is E flat minor with an inversion of the b flat being on top, d flat minor also with a inversion of a b flat on top, a minor chord, and b major chords for the right hand and the left hand it e for e flat note for the e flat major chord, b note for next chord, a for a minor then b for b major chord
@@xotwod7365 he knew this would happen though "rolling stone" Been listening to the weeknd more then any artist based off my spotify stats and I think blinding lights is amazing
@@xotwod7365 I still love all his music. Every album is great! But I always find myself coming back to these older albums. They take me back To when I first listened to him. Still wish spotify had all his unofficial songs.... got them downloaded on youtube red
I'm a new Weeknd fan and I gotta say.. WHERE THE FUCK HAVE I BEEN?? HOW DID I NOT KNOW OF SUCH TALENT?? MY GOD!!! This man is gonna kill me with how much I can relate and have such an emotional connection with his music. This song tho got me feeling all kinds of chills up and down my spine. but being a new fan of The Weeknd I gotta say Trilogy is my favorite album and this song is my favorite song on this album. I'm so upset that I missed out on these times in his career. XO For life!!!
You can hear the emotion and its almost like you hear his past. When I listen I hear the cars and voices he might have heard when he was homeless on the somber, depper songs. But in the happy ones, I hear his fans cheering his name and people congratulating him on his success. Abel's voice take me somewhere else. Wouldn't be here without him. 💛🙏🏼🎶 Thanks for doing what you do, Abel. 💛💛💛
I wish he still did music like this. Hearing the new stuff absolutely pains my soul knowing that he was making songs like this originally. I feel like these songs speak to my soul
People kill me with this, "You aren't an original fan" shit. Like really? And then you're upset that he's big now? That's completely selfish. He worked hard to get where he is today, this is where he wanted to be. For you to say that you wish he wasn't so big, that's selfish as fuck. He's still making great music, yes, these songs from his earlier albums were good too. But change is inevitable, learn to live with it.
i would be like what the fu W A I T "DID U HAVE TO TELL UR FRIENDS BOUT THE WAY I GOT U SCREMING MY NAMMMEE. " then i realised im alone and who tf said that
Remember listening to this like a year and a bit ago and really hoped he did not become mainstream (yes, I know selfish). Looking at his career now it is on fire haha but I still want these old vibes with the relaxed instrumentals and his voice sharing every emotion.
WOw. It's April 2020, and I'm only hearing this song NOW! *NOW* . No song has ever made me stop what I'm doing, sit back and close my eyes, and listen. Amazing.
Easily one of the Weeknd's best tunes, vocals and lyrics are unreal. Still listening 8 years later and still one of my favorites along with wicked games and belong to the world.
"you said you don't belong, you keep saying there's no one, but who keeps calling on your phone, I'm so wrong, I'm so wrong to let you in my arms." (low key relatable)
I love how he can really control his voice, and take it to so many different levels, his music makes you heart beat fast and slow at the same time, and creates a whirl of warmth in your blood, like the music just gently flows through your veins. This man is brutal, he's honest, he knows how to get a fan thinking, his music is like poetry, but on a whole other level. I love and admire him and his music!!! Keep it up please!! 😍❤
I was driving back home after my grandmother passed in the hospital and listened to this song, thinking of all the amazing things we did as tears rolled down my face , she raised me and treated me as her own son, so did my mom💔
This song is on another level of greatness that is impossible to comprehend when you're high asf. This is his best song of all time without a doubt, I've been saying this for years, it NEVER gets old.
the song isn't about a girl it's about his transition to mainstream music and the struggles, the girl is just a metaphor. I trust Abel to keep delivering even when he's got plastic mainstream fans screaming his name. Twenty eight grams is roughly an ounce, his music is a drug. X♥O.
I know everyone says this. But I'm born and raised in Toronto and am 38. I was going to small bars and watching the weekend to his original stuff like this. I'm glad he got huge. But I like his original stuff way better. It's dark and sexy depressing music
when he said "if i 9nly knew that you'd be living in my sheets, i wouldn't have shown u any love, i would have left you in the club" i was laughing so hard😂 damn thats cold😂lol
Whenever I feel sad I just listen to this and the only thing i realized is that the lyrics are so relatable af. Weekend you're the best man we love you and we'll always support you.
When I heard this song I thought I heard Michael Jackson. Sorry if it offends anyone but dam MJ had some awesomely good songs, and I miss his music .. I think The weekend is my new MJ.
“Hey there lonely girl” ❤️... I’m so proud of you Abel. You started out small, and then now you are big. Been with you since Trilogy days. I love you man, great job. ❤️ XOTWOD. ❤️
This house is not a home to you But you decide to go ahead and lay down, lay down There are no words to describe the depth of your indifference 'Cause I see you're here to stay Should've known to pick my fate, oh I'm so wrong, I'm so wrong (To let you in my) To let you in my home (Now you know where I sleep) Now you know where I sleep (Never felt so damn weak) oh, oh Hey there, lonely girl Did you have to tell your friends About the way I got you screaming my name? Did you have to tell the world? Ooh Now your girls all wanna fuck Girl, you could've been the one Gotta change my number twice a month When you could have simply kept it on the down low I'm so wrong, I'm so wrong (To let you in my) To let you in my home (Now you know where I sleep) Now you know where I sleep (Never felt so damn weak) oh (oh) oh And baby if I knew you'd be living in my sheets I wouldn't have shown you any love I would have left you in the club You said you don't belong You keep saying there's no one And there's no where to go, ooh But who keeps calling on your phone?

Literally just finished cleaning my kitchen at 11pm listening to only this song. That was the slowest I’ve ever cleaned my kitchen...and it’s sparkling clean.
