@@whipit2404 taking a similar beat is not plagiarism. The 80s and 90s were full of similar music and samples. After hours did it well, and dawn fm did it even better
Nah its literally the same. Don't act like they didn't just put those songs on and start making a different beat minorly to a different tempo. Everyone does it
This song sounds more 80s then the 80s itsself. When i first heard it, i was wondering wich old song this is, thought i must know it from the past but i didn't.
it sounded basically nothing like it to me at first, but after watching and listening like 10 times straight, I thought the song in the middle sounded less like blinding lights, but now I think that one actually sounds less like blinding lights than Ana's take on me, which btw my family and I LOVE that song! It really just the dun. dun. dun beat in the background that is like almost a second apart and a steady beat that's the same in all of them, actually that steady beat is only in the first 2 song, not even in take on me, and Morten Harket says Take me out of this video! lol.
Wow Rod Stewart 🎉 He is very slick with his sound. I think all songs tangle together...I can't be more happy with learning all about the evolution on music🎉
Art begets art. People are still using the same chords as Pachelbel. The Weeknd’s work is still his and original. For me the proof is that the three songs give me three different sensations when I listen to them.
Como,Argentina y fan de los clasicos de los 80 y 90..dire que Abel ,The WEEKNR,S ).tiene esa voz angelical,.y da para cubrir los estilos en este 2023!!100 x 100..
You know it's 80s inspired with that 4/4 beat and synthesizers. First time I heard it I thought it was a cover then realized it was just the sound that was familiar.
I've connected some dots here. Thanks to your reading (the cherry on top) and some other readings. To be honest, the, so-called "general" readings on TH-cam make more sense then a lot of individualized advices I've heard in life. Maybe these readings are reinforcements of those advices I wasn't prepared to hear at the time. But maybe, it's the magic of the calmness healing energy you all pass through the videos. Thank you! ❤
It’s also similar to one his home town old song - it’s one of my favorite songs cuz it remixes me of our childhood music it probably would remix him his childhood also
i think he put all together and listened, than took from all songs something common that make them hot and bam, he got good hearing and memory plus voice
He is special. First his voice is unique not imitation of no one, Weeknd is authentic, Bravisimo!!the song and the music is unique, it brings memories but to each it's own!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🇺🇸🇪🇦🇲🇽💯🙏
He is obviously inspired by 80's music!
“Inspired”. More like plagiarism.
@@whipit2404 How is having similar beats and instruments plagiarism? Learn the definition of the word before using it. You’re a grown ass man.
yes. glad people got to listen 80's vibe in modern times
@@whipit2404 taking a similar beat is not plagiarism. The 80s and 90s were full of similar music and samples. After hours did it well, and dawn fm did it even better
@@elijustkidding4343 it is sorta
He gets his flow from a lot of 80s music in a few of his songs
Especially Dawn FM
I like the use of the 80'sish sound.
This guy has zero talent. He uses "unknown" and old songs to talk a lot of nonsense and trash.
Abel is always gonna be inspired by 80's music. 80's style is what he is good at.
He's better at contemporary R&B and Neo Soul, tho is very good at 80's inspired synth pop
man you‘re damn good... thats not copying... thats beeing inspired by a song...
Lol suuuuuuure
@@mightyORFENit really isn’t copying The Weekend was just remaking best of the 80’s
He never said it was copying though...
@@Heilbronn023 Remaking isn't copying huh? lol
More like bringing old vibe🎉🎉🕺🕺🕺
That is the reason for I love that song. I love songs 80s.
bruh it's really just 80s inspo and the beat
Nah its literally the same. Don't act like they didn't just put those songs on and start making a different beat minorly to a different tempo. Everyone does it
@@Colossal322 its between inspi and plagiat . Only money can judge em 😆😆
@@adrenbroit’s not plagiarism. At all.
@@Colossal322no it’s not. Y’all really do hate for no reason at all. Stay mad, and he’ll stay successful.
@@trustee7327they just haters lol, it's literally just the same tempo of beats and a similar synth, literally every songs in the 80s had one of those
Yeah that's why it stayed in the billboard charts for 90 weeks, 80s kids in full force for this song.
Jeez Louise, that's pretty close to 2 years lol
80's vibe, best time of my life.
Love that song.
😎👍🍻
My parents said it was A-ha when they first heard the song!
My parents said it was Rod Stewart
this song sounds both Take on me and Forest Fire by a-ha)
and a-ha's Maybe, Maybe as well! Starting to think a-ha should've gotten some royalites@@Kotychka_Nyashnaya
however blinding lights is a masterpiece
@@amoxzi Facts
thank you
All 3 are
All three are
The weekend is a Masterpiece. Such great talent
I love the 80s. Thats why i love blinding lights
And I love all 3 of them. Live thru each era
The only thing that is similar is the 4/4 rhythm. Guess what? An overwhelming number of modern song is in 4/4 🤣
Tone. The sound profile, like the instruments/synth used is very 80s
Ngôi sao mồ côi cx có nhịp nhỉ
hay quá b
All songs are
Synth pad as well bruhh
Yeah they all got that amazing beat
That’s because it’s the same beat that the original one had
Totally his sound…love Weeknd so much ❤
Gotta love the Weekend. Unique
The weekend made the impossible
In 21st century he made 80s song
This song sounds more 80s then the 80s itsself.
When i first heard it, i was wondering wich old song this is, thought i must know it from the past but i didn't.
Sounds like The Weeknd really took a time machine to go to the 80s, that makes another reference with Back To The Future 😮
I always thought the tempo and drums were like take on me
Its cool, nice inspiration
Rod stewart's young turks & take on me by aha , i like em both . When their tuned combined to create blinding lights i loved it 2x .😍
Oh my fucking god, first time I hear Young Turks mentioned outside GTA San Andreas. Too underrated song
I agree, plus I feel a similar tone between this song and the song of Harry Style
No wonder I love this song! 😍
it sounded basically nothing like it to me at first, but after watching and listening like 10 times straight, I thought the song in the middle sounded less like blinding lights, but now I think that one actually sounds less like blinding lights than Ana's take on me, which btw my family and I LOVE that song!

It was obvious a retro track by The Weekend, and i loved it
his name is the week *nd*
Why is it "obviously " tho ?
@@MeToo-py1tqwdym listen to the song bruh
if by “retro track”, you mean “ copying an older song”, then yes..
very “retro”
The Weeknd*

@rogersanma2are you dumb lol
We Love blinding by the lights for his 80s vibe

Inspiration comes in many forms and everybody wants to claim it’s from them.
You know it's 80s inspired with that 4/4 beat and synthesizers. First time I heard it I thought it was a cover then realized it was just the sound that was familiar.
yes, that “sound” is what’s being copied
The Weekend wishes he could be an 80's ICON!
Every song is unique and beautiful
In vietnam you can see a song name "ngôi sao cô đơn" have the same sound with this=) (sorry because my english is bad)
:))
Cùng dòng nhạc
We all know he gets his sound from the 80's
at least his 2 most recent albums not his older stuff tho
I knew it had a familiar vibe 😁 taakeee on meeee 🕺🏽🔥
The weekend is a throwback to the 80s, the greatest decade ever!
i love a-ha take on me ❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥
Congratulations for having figured out that music from the same genre and/or era sounds similar. Big brain.
I miss playing GTA SA when i heard Young Turks
OG 80's vibes hit different
Blinding by the lights feels so 30 years ago.
Same
Well there are certain Cord Patterns that are widely used
And then some
The last one uncovered a deep childhood memory of mine...
Love this positivity 👏✨🎶🎧🎶✨✌️🤟💖😎🤭💖
Just the beat
The two together could sound similar 🤔
All songs are legendary ❤
its like listening music of the past, present and future all at the same time
Who wants to feel old? Blinding lights released over two years ago 😳
but old is gold
2 years doesn't make someone old all of a sudden lol. You must be 8
Its retro
That is why a lot of people love the weekend for the 80 style😊 nice😊
I've connected some dots here.

My head: Take on meeeeeeee , Take on me, Take me onnnnnnnn Take on me
the 8th graders one year for band did it and they didnt do it for my grade and I was so upset like its a good song lol
Young turks actually sounded just like the weekend's blinding light.
its the other way around, the weekend’s blinding lights sounds like young turks.
I Love all three! 😁👍
That's why i love 80s music
I just got transported to GTA: San Andreas for a second there...
No 💀
This song + this song = this song
*"Taaaaake oooooooon meeeeeeeee"*
Yes I was Lil bit of suspicious before 😂
First
they are masterpieces
My phone ringtone in 2003:
He's inspired from 80's tracks
Yeah, the songs are similar but his one is the best.
Me in gta sa flying in my helicopter while vibing on Young turks
using a 80s beatbox only ..sounds so nice❤
80's will never die
All 80's songs with a syncopated drum beat sound like that
It’s also similar to one his home town old song - it’s one of my favorite songs cuz it remixes me of our childhood music it probably would remix him his childhood also
all the roads lead to A-HAsss lol
Week ends songs remind me of the club music in Germany during the 80s best time of my life
All of them are legendary 🔥💙
Ele é simplesmente maravilhoso
THATS WHAT MAKES IT SO GREAT!
Someone needs to combine blinding lights with up all night
Nice, Ah's take on me has always been one of my most fav songs from when it came out bur i didnt recognise it in the weekends
His later music is all inspired by 80's/synth sounds ❤ it!
i think he put all together and listened, than took from all songs something common that make them hot and bam, he got good hearing and memory plus voice
Had completely forgotten about that childhood sound bliss by Rod stewart- Young Turks- THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Damn I remember hearing the second song in San Andreas
THE WEEKEND YA superó TODAS ésas canciones viejas sí sé paresen PERO está ES LA hera THE WEEKEND.
Stayin alive and Billie Jean
It's like the music hits perfectly❤❤❤ 🎵🎶🎶
Amazing vibes 😍
Thanks for the young turks, i've been lookin for this song
Young turks really gave me nostalgia Gta SA DAYSSSS
love the last one
Perfect mix❤
We all love the weekend))
wait.... I think this beat was first heard in "Maniac" by Michael Sembello. I'm big fan of this "Flashdance" song!
Rod, he´s amazing !!
Oh I loved Rod Steward’s music he was one my favorites when I was a teenager
🎵🎤😎
He is special. First his voice is unique not imitation of no one, Weeknd is authentic, Bravisimo!!the song and the music is unique, it brings memories but to each it's own!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🇺🇸🇪🇦🇲🇽💯🙏
AHAAHAHHA YES TAKE ON ME
all of them are awesome! :)
Since I have heard it reminds me of the 80's but I think his melodie has nothing to do with the other songs....I love it ❤
Bro, Young turks!! Just get me!
*song playing on radio
Me: ooooo! Take on me! Yes!
*three seconds later
God damn it, it's just blinding lights again
