I've enjoyed every Lana and The Weeknd collaboration, but this one definitely takes the cake. Their voices are incredible together.
I just don't appreciate this kind of softness in The Weeknd's voice. It is unpleasant to me. Where Lana sounds majestic and wistful, he sounds detached and technical to me. I only know him from a couple collaborations and believe he sounded better in those.
I really don't care for The Weeknd but his voice blends really well with Lana on the title track. Definitely serving me Without You chai's.
Not a huge The Weekend fan but his vocals really make the track stick. This is a great song, but I still prefer Love. It's just a little prettier.
Very WASP, very Slim Aarons, very summer vacation in Newport. An anthem for trust-fund girls in resorts where the sky's always blue and palm trees sway.
Ok let's be honest, @Raisin Hell was about 7 lines too short to be encroaching on @imperialsteroid territory.
I'm honestly surprised about the amount of indifference/negativity towards the The Weekend over here.
If The Weeknd gets a 6 pack and does a photoshoot in his underwear grabbing his junk then he'll get some attention here.
Or it just boils down to not enjoying his music? I enjoyed Trilogy but everything since hasn't replicated the greatness of those three albums together.
Dare I say that it's sort of evident that the verses got turned into the pre-chorus? It's still a really good song and for me the best part about it (in addition to Lana/Abe's chemistry) is the production, it's the first time I've noticed the production in a Lana track for a long time. Kind of an updated BTD-album vibe really. Love still holds the no1 place for me tho, that melody remains impeccable.
Supposedly that will never happen. I read somewhere that he has no nipples, and that's why he has never done anything shirtless. I forget where I read this now, but, apparently he is rather self-conscious about it all.
