    The vibrato, the shake in his voice, his falsetto tone, his beaten ass face. My goodness this man is perfection.

      He didn't use falsetto in this performance though. But still, his falsetto is probably the best in the industry

      Prabin Gautam that’s why I said tone. He’s singing high, but it still has resonance, still his throat voice. That is incredible.

    When Daniel Craig said, "once again the weeknd" he was like, "oh you don't know what's gonna happen next". I bet he died during the stage rehearsals

      IDK. I actually came online bc I'm watching the full ep on my DVR presently, and I notice even in his first presentation/intro for The Weeknd that Daniel seems to not like him. I forgot which other host/artist pair exhibited this on-air many years ago, but I hope I recall soon. Anyhow, I respect and enjoy both men, I hope there was no static nor tension btwn them.
      Then again... It Could be that he's simply tired of The WeekNd crashing on his couch. ;P

    How refreshing to hear a break-up song that doesn't place the blame on the ex, and in fact, wishes them well. There's a lot of emotional maturity here. It's hard to move on from someone when they're the only lover you've ever known. Even harder to admit that you're the problem.

      Pretty sure he is lip singing. You can tell by the way he is holding his mic while singing, his improper grip would have had sound loss effects.

    • @karaokekidd9330
      @karaokekidd9330 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      ​@@AsheraBurned I think there is some slight processing to sweeten what are already very, very good vocals...a touch of reverb, etc. Pretty sure it's mostly him...and even if it isn't, he had to do it in the studio, at the very least, so leave the man alone and enjoy the beautiful song! An instant classic, IMO!

      At the end the mic literally makes a weird sound so I mean it’s on.
      Also, he occasionally adds things that most likely aren’t going to be in the final product. Those HA’S and HEY’s he sings are always added in his live performances.

      Vinayak Mhatre Abel is not the soul writer for all of his releases. I believe Abel writes most of his songs, but a lot of the lyrics & melodies in his songs are a collaborative effort. There are some songs with over 5 different writers including Illangelo (another goat) & legendary pop producer Max Martin. Not to slight Abel because he’s a legend, but he definitely has other people contributing, even as early as Trilogy he had the assistance of other songwriters like Rose & Illangelo.

    Verse 1]
    When I saw the signs, I shoulda let you go
    But I kept you beside me
    And if I held you back at least I held you close
    Should have known you were lonely
    I know things will never be the same
    Time we lost will never be replaced
    I'm the reason you forgot to love
    [Chorus]
    So don't be scared to live again
    Be scared to live again
    No, don't be scared to live again
    Be scared to live again
    Verse 2]
    You always miss the chance to fall for someone else
    'Cause your heart only knows me
    They try win your love, there was nothing left
    They just made you feel lonely (Hey)
    Well, I am not the man I used to be
    Did some things I couldn't let you see
    Refused to be the one to taint your heart
    [Chorus]
    So don't be scared to live again
    Be scared to live again
    No, don't be scared to live again, baby
    Be scared to live again (Say)
    [Post-Chorus]
    I hope you know that (Oh), I hope you know that (Oh)
    That I'll be praying that you find yourself
    I hope you know that (Oh), I hope you know that (Oh)
    We fell apart right from the start
    [Bridge]
    I should have made you my only
    When it's said and done, woah-oah-oah
    [Chorus]
    So don't be scared to live again, baby
    Be scared to live again
    No, don't be scared to live again, baby
    Be scared to live again
    [Post-Chorus]
    I hope you know that (Oh), I hope you know that (Oh)
