Lyrics:
I used to pray when I was sixteen
If I didn’t make it then I’d probably make my wrist bleed
Not to mislead turn my nightmares into big dreams
Whole squad mobbin even though we only six deep
I was singing notes while my niggas played with six keys
Walking in the snow before I ever made my wrist freeze
I was blowing smoke had me dizzy like Gillespie
Niggas had no homes we were living in the dead streets
You couldn’t find me like I’m Hoffa
Cover girls jumping out the page like they pop ups
Spending all my money on these niggas that I brought up
Taking care of families for my brothers when they are locked up
And I had nothing to believe in
Double cup leanin
Couldn’t even breathe and
For that money I was fiending
Cali was the mission but now a nigga leaving
Leaving, leaving into the night
Now a nigga leaving, leaving
leaving into the night oh
She like my futuristic sounds in the new spaceship
Futuristic sex give her Phillip K dick
She never need a man, she what a man need
So I could keep on falling for her daily
We was at Coachella going brazy
Stack a couple M’s like I was shady
Now I’m in Tribeca like I’m Jay-Z
Rockin Sorayama like he pay me
I just signed a new deal with Mercedes
Got me movin dirty like I’m Swayze
All my diamonds dancing like they Swayze
All my diamonds hitting like they Swae Lee
Jet so big got a business and a coach
I was always on the road rockin Louis a la mode nigga
And for that money I was fiending
Cali was the mission but now a nigga leaving
Leaving, leaving into the night
Now a nigga leaving, leaving
leaving into the night oh
20 mill mansion never lived in
Zero edge pool never dipped in it
Superstar neighbor in my business
Paparazzi tryna catch me sleepin and
Going on tour is my vacation
Every month another accusation
Only thing I’m phobic of is failing
I was never blessed with any patience
So a nigga leaving, leaving into the night
Now a nigga leaving, leaving
leaving into the night oh

Animator: How much nostalgia do you wanna give the audience?
Abel: Yes
What does it mean bro?
I wrote a song by my heart!! Hope anyone hear my music and help me to become like *Weeknd*
Dream big bro :) I did and won :)

@@Nic-wf9pj nostalgia is something that reminds you of back in the day or makes you reminisce to s certain time period
you got that one damn right! :)))))))
Abel is the only one who could summarize his entire career in 4 minutes
Eminem
WOAH WOAH WOAH!!! Let me get this perfectly straight: You comment something that is completely unrelated to the fact that I have two HAZARDOUSLY HOT girlfriends? Considering that I am the unprettiest TH-camr worldwide, it is really incredible. Yet you did not mention it at all. I am VERY disappointed, dear jeus
AxxL No one cares.
I think this is all about missing his hair.
AxxL huh
the most underrated song of the TheWeeknd so far 🦋
Wow underrated means 18 million right?
@@eddrianlima compared to his other hits 💁🏿
@JAVIER SANABIA hmmmm
Nope
Wtffffffffff
HOW DID HE NOT WIN MULTIPLE GRAMMIES FOR THIS MASTERPIECE OF AN ALBUM?!??!!?!
lol @ the grammies
What happen if japan release anime series on weeknd
You mean Scammy
As ruff criminal would say the Grammys are racist
Faccs the grammys get donkey of the decade for that.
Imagine a whole anime show about Abel's career with a season representing each album and it looks like this. And he has the powers from the Starboy Marvel comics. That would slap so hard on Netflix.
Facts
OMFG YES
Can we get everyone to like this and copy paste it everywhere pls? Thanka
Nothing but heat and imagine if we had special guest appearances from artists he’s had features or tracks with like Drake, Travis, Future, etc.🔥🔥🔥🔥
D Jaj You need to stop thinking about man ass.
I’m just saying if Abel makes a full on season of an anime about his life I’m there
We all gon wait till Abel : shippuden drops

This Song is Deeper than anyone think. Really Feel it right now
Explain plz
Bro if you go to 2:36 he did a form of satan logo
I agree, he wants the fam but now he sees what comes with it, but as you can see, hes fully trapped and cant get out. Hes fully a puppet
@@1998thewisethat’s not completely it
The fact that he tells his story like a movie and kept us to be more interested to look our life through him makes him one of the greatest artist ever
so true

Same as MJ

He tells the story but did yall get the messege?

The story of his journey in 4 mins... I respect you Abel.
He literally portrayed a bit of his every album.
1. Trilogy: House of balloons
2. Kissland: Belong to the world
3. Beauty Behind the madness: The Hills
4. Starboy: MANIA & Starboy
5: My Dear Melancholy: Call out my name
6. After Hours: Heartless and a title reference to the video itself aka Snowchild.
And I feel it coming with the moon landscape and the stars

Maybe it's a stretch, but I love how this video connects all the eras together. We see a younger Abel in the Toronto house of balloons before all the fame; Kiss Land Abel gets pulled under by the dark, mysterious world; the depiction of the devil that Abel shot in Tell Your Friends appears before he walks to his Hills house, the changed man that has made a deal for fame; the attention from BBTM follows into the Starboy era where Abel is attacked and ends up going on the run; this flows nicely into MDM with the Call Out My Name video; and finally Abel's bruised, and beaten After Hours self begins, cue the madness of Heartless...
Also, Starboy-Abel with the duel-wielded glowing crosses was lit.
Great observations.
I didn't realize all this is in the video.
THIS. th-cam.com/video/r3woZKe4T1M/w-d-xo.html
Stretch ? That’s exactly what the video shows for those who know.
The only thing I didn’t like is that everything just felt like a short teaser and not at all a fluid music video.
This symbolism is crazy 😳 trying to interpret his story makes it even better
Josh Omofia th-cam.com/video/FSSFgWlDbJU/w-d-xo.html
crazy how it went from house of balloons to now

This song hits different when you’ve been XO from the start
Completely agree 🎈
Same, been a fan since 2012 after accidentally stumbling on the song "The Zone" on Tumblr when it had no title or artist listed. I just clicked on it because the House of Balloons image looked cool. Little did I know...
Am I’m the only one that feel sadness watching all these eras in the video ?
Coming from “rolling stone”
Yeah and you actually get the first parts
One of his best songs ever. If you’re a day 1 The Weeknd fan, you’ll know why
Realest thing since Wicked games 😭
Let's not forget he released this masterpiece on Selena's birthday .
Ikr and after Selena had put this song on her list of the songs she's been listing to
Selena was the straw that broke the camel's back
Keep sel away from abel.. She's evil and abuser
Oh did not know that.
@@dontsettle4243 she kept putting it on songs she was into and being positive and he released the video literally on her birthday as an appreciation of her support I feel
It was pretty dope to see The Weeknd's entire history in such a short, yet meaningful video
Facts bruh
Me being idiot, but I won
th-cam.com/video/V5-c06foqSE/w-d-xo.html
U r right
Jonas Jonauskas please stop trying to take the attention away from The Weekend. This isn’t about you bro.
@@samanthahowell6591 u r right
From 3:54 to 4:03 you can see he’s becoming the old man from dawn fm
OMG, its true
i thik the old look is supposed to show that he has accepted his faith and the fact that he cant love again and ends up begging for her
Snowchild is a montage of The Weeknd's life through all his albums. It starts with After hours Abel "tripping down the memory lane" at 0:09 .
House of Balloons era. The city of Toronto is cold and lonely as the only people in the city we can see are him and his friends. He is very sad in his house of balloons and we can see in 0:39 his life is "upside down" but is "turning around."
Kissland era: He is in Japan and things went from colorless to colorful. He's got fame and money but is still hollow from the inside. He uses alcohol, drugs and sex to cope and meets the muse from kissland along the way who just "drags him down" at 1:07 .
Beauty Behind the Madness: At 1:17 the elevator has odd numbers only and the dial going backwards could mean he is just falling more and more in odd ways. At 1:26 we see people who have "lost their heads" and are "stuck in Hollywood " until they "disappear/die." He meets the devil here as in BBtm.
Starboy era: 1:45 his house is dark but there is light outside. Basically he is in a dark place emotionally. He enters a hidden corner of his house/mind. Here finds women, assuming his love interests, who want to hurt him. He wants to run away but can't. He realizes he fight his inner demons and starts to believe in himself. He literally " double crosses" his demons at 2:36 . This, however, shatters his house/mind.
My Dear Melancholy era: He is aimlessly wondering around and fast traveling everywhere. He is "burning money" at 2:58 just to keep himself warm or to feel anything.
After Hours era: 3:11 He simply crashes from doing all these and now is all alone or "deserted" in life. Disoriented Abel is glad to be close to Vegas/happiness but it's actually far away. This doesn't stop as he keeps moving on until he reaches Vegas and he's all worn out at 3:55 at this point. But he does all this only to "find himself" completely "Heartless" at 4:07 .
Incredible explanation thanks alot
Woowww crazy how u study each part and detail.. thanks for breaking it down to us🎯🎯
Thy man i thought i was trippin
Underrated comment

this is literally just the boondocks lol
Jojo?
idk why tf i’m crying. maybe bc seeing each of his albums and how it smoothly transitions to another. it feels... nostalgic and fulfilling? just me?
I feel you he came such a long way, I thought he was gonna be underground forever but he hustled and became mainstream!
Wanya same! i remember when i used to ask people if they knew who The Weeknd was and they had no idea who i was talking about, but now, “oh yeah, starboy!”.
it's kinda like the animated mv for We Are Bulletproof the Eternal b/c it shows Abel through the progression of his music.
first name yes! it reminds me of that music video too!
same here
I understand him completely. I am bleeding out through his music. He is expressing me because I was silenced
ahem, are you alright?
@@subhodeeeep yes yes I am ok! I don't literally mean bleeding 😂 I mean like an emotional release through his music....I can never Express myself and how I feel because I was not allowed to as a child so I don't know how. His music unlocked my expression deficit and I will never be the same as I am now free!!

Its a very insightful glimpse into the struggle with fame and the music industry. It changed his life in many ways. He lost family and friends due to succeeding in the music industry. Each time he changes he encounters a new problem. All the separate albums reflecting how he has changed. The first section shows how hes leaving behind his friends and family. The part where the women turn into panthers could represent how the women hes encountered in his life are vicious animals to him. The section where hes wearing all black could show how cold hes become and shows him burning his money and talking about the "2 million dollar" home he doesnt visit. Its all empty to him now. The money, fame, and material items no longer bring him any joy.
The last section he has basically become "heartless" to all of it. Turning to struggles with drugs as a way to escape the pain of his fame. To maybe find meaning in all of the events in his life.
This kids 14 and The Weeknd is his inspiration th-cam.com/video/xRNnyJvl7lM/w-d-xo.html

This guy just consistently makes good music and it baffles me, but in a good way. Very rare in today’s time
They’ll eventually be a movie made with just his music in it portraying his life/ lifestyle. He’s that legendary
I believe that.
He’s of Anchient decent, he’s always been a legend.
There will never be another artist quite like The Weeknd. He is frequently imitated but never duplicated or replaced

He showed you that he sold his soul for fame but i guess you didnt see it.
@@user-lp4fw2ec5qoh really which part does he sell his soul.
It's not real. It's just an artistic statement. Like selling out. And for a while he had sold out and was just making radio ready pop music or trash hip hop features. That's what he meant when he was showing all the sold your soul imagery on things like the call out my name video. He feels like he sold out
@@tadialbert1036 throughout all his music and videos, he talks about selling his soul for fame. I dont believe in that stuff but to each their own
It’s sad that everybody is talking about selena and Bella references
But don’t understand the depth of the song about Abel telling his story
Actually, there are lots of comments talking about the depth of the song, It’s just that there are several comments about Selena because we recently noticed something that could refer to her.
He is the best and everything is fine ❤️
They were evil they were panthers... aka they had motives
Those are the “Earned it” and “Can’t feel my face” fans

Who is Abel?😅

No matter how many times I’ve heard this song , every time I listen is a new feeling
Just seen him live for his first show in Vegas since before After Hours and honestly it felt like almost a homecoming.. The opening with that special emphasis on that "Vegas" line in Alone Again, the return of the red jacket, and of course how much he had the stadium JUMPING. I kept thinking to myself just how far this dude's come!! From small beginnings in Toronto, to selling out FOOTBALL stadiums, and of course the Superbowl.. LOVE to see it!! Congrats to him!
I feel like the album should've been named snowchild. This song is too powerful
and yet has no recognition.
Nope the song after hours 100% deserves the album name, it's the best song in the album

Yeah Kissland was about falling in love with prostitute
House of balloons/Tuesday/Echoes of Silence*
A little early on a couple but real fans dont mind because we get it xotwod
After watching his "Gasoline" video where his old self travels back in time to where the present one is in the club, this video says a lot. At the end of this, he ends up seeing his hedonistic self in Vegas about to get into some wild shit , just like Gasoline.
He could be trying to save himself from dying in these alternate storylines. From House of Balloons to Starboy he was killing himself to reach new levels, but now he's interconnecting levels where his alternate selves run into each other.
He already at DawnFm in mind in this video this is fuxking nutsss
He really came full circle I remember bumping House of Ballons in High School, now he's a full on star!
Same here.

His darkness it's never going to leave him. It followed him through everything.
Hmm deep ❤
After all the bangers he's put out and will in future, I'll keep coming back to this.
The Weeknd's that one artist that you never asked for but needed.
He’s amazing isn’t he Jaisuraj!!

@@haleyb.1341 actually no, it's making sense we related.
The Weeknd has demonstrated he is the "what a time to be alive" human representation. Simply, the best.
The only thing he demostrated in this, is how he sold his soul for fame.
What does that even mean u sound dumb
@@user-lp4fw2ec5q what does sell ur soul mean?, is having money and success selling ur soul. Most artist that are successful are always said that they have sold their soul but its just bs. They made it, that's all.

comment something better
😂😂 pin this
Please get yourself a better life
🤣🤣🤣
Whenever my hustle is going bad, I always refer to this story. 1:58
So he’s basically saying he doesn’t want to be famous anymore, and he’s prioritizing what’s real in his life: his lover, his homies and family, his music. He’s leaving into the night, into obscurity. Perhaps this is the end, or the start of another chapter.
A new chapter. He's grown into a man right before our eyes. I love his authentic, raw talent.
He is changing. First time I listened to it I thought the same thing. He is just changing his whole vibe though. Onto better beginnings and focusing on what matters
I think so as well. I think he rather stay humble and never sell out for anything. That's why I love this man.

I am the visual, the inspiration, that made the lady sing the blues.
this song came out a day after my birthday, it was like a birthday gift from The Weeknd himself.
lol
the song has the mysterious touch that always characterizes de weeknd
Who else thinks After Hours is the best thing that happened during Corona time
Agreed we are blessed to have this🙌
Yes!!
Nope..
@Yug Singh mate xotwod it doesn't matter the cast creed or country
Dan M What is then??
I like how he included all The Weeknd era looks from Trilogy all the way to After Hours in the video the animators went OFF🔥. I hope The Weeknd makes an anime show and I hope we get a Nothing compares music video
Hi Austin!
I kind of miss the hair it was a vibe and people don't understand the hours they put into the animation just for it to look like that.
This masterpiece turned 3 years today ❤
God I love how Abel uses crosses to kill demons it’s badass and holy amen

#facts
2011: „Cali is the mission“ (The Morning)
2020: „Cali was the Mission“ (Snowchild)
Next track after Snowchild is „Escape from LA“
2015: "Cali was the mission" (Tell Your Friends)
What does cali refers to?
@@arjungupta2687 California
He has an unreleased song called
Take Me Back To LA
Bro escape from LA was the best in my opinion
Got me movin' dirty like I'm Swayze
All my diamonds dancing like they Swayze.
This man is so good, he used the same movie reference twice. Jeez.
Wow this is really deep. He just told us his whole life story in 4 minutes 12seconds. Genius!!!!!
Blinding Lights: The Weeknd in an 80's mood
In your eyes: The Weeknd in a Psycho/Terror mood
Snowchild: The Weeknd in an "anime" mood
After hours is a Masterpiece and this guy is such a legend
Dream big bro :) I did and won :)
th-cam.com/video/V5-c06foqSE/w-d-xo.html
Starboy
"In your eyes "is very 80's too, the clip has slasher ,thriller (mj) influence .
Heartless is more of a party mood
In your eyes: Influenced by Thriller
An anime series with all his albums is gonna be a banger

If you look,at time 4:01 you notice an elderly Abel right before we transition to the Weeknd from after hours. This mans hid this easter egg in this video showing where we are in Dawn
This song made me cry the first time the message the sadness in the voice underrated asf
The weeknd doesn't need a Grammy,
Grammy needs him ❤️
Exactly, he's more than a grammy
Koree Baba
yes.
Facts.
grammy may not deseves
He literally portrayed a bit of his every album.
1. Trilogy: House of balloons & The zone
2. Kissland: Kissland & Belong to the world
3. Beauty Behind the madness: The Hills & Tell Your Friends
4. Starboy: MANIA & Starboy
5: My Dear Melancholy: Call out my name
6. After Hours: Heartless, Until I bleed out and a title reference to the video itself aka Snowchild.
i appreciate this so much
Yesss! I noticed all of that! He is a beast
@Rishin Roy Arts Also the black panther for Pray for me
I would also say 3. References Can't Feel My Face too, that guy in both
That's deep
I can't believe this masterpiece turn one year 🤸🏼♀️🕳️
Best song the weeknd has ever made in my opinion
For real! The beat is amazing too
Back to house of ballons: a place where all XOs belong to
I think he is trying to make the new fans have some sort of background sl they don't feel left out anymore, like he's trying to mix Old XO to the new fans
Isss thisss worthyyyyyyyy???? th-cam.com/video/2lVJD1iStEs/w-d-xo.html
Mate I want to cry. Grammy doesn't give my man abel any nomination at all. This is the biggest robbed this year. I can't believe yummy justin bieber get nominated but not blinding lights. I hear blinding lights every fcking day I can't believe it
Exactly!
Bruh! Shit is messed up.
The Grammy's aren't a popularity contest
Awards don't mean anything. You can't take it serious. I decide for myself what is best. This guy is awesome.
Grammys was never about quality, the sooner you realize this the better. Remember when Macklemore won over Kendrick, Drake, Hov and Ye. Shit is never really about the best music. Let it go, let's define success on our own terms
most underrated song this is a masterpiece
1 year later and it's still a banger
Animator: How many album references do u need?
The Weeknd: yes
Isss thissss worthyyyyyyyy???? th-cam.com/video/2lVJD1iStEs/w-d-xo.html
I feel like this video rounds up the clips: in "Until I Bleed Out" (which I assume is an OD process, as in "After Hours" short film he experiences relapse that leads to "In Your Eyes" badtrip) Abel ends up lying on the ground, this video starts right after that. In the end, Abel comes back from his nostalgia trip just to see himself at the beginning of "Heartless", restarting it all again.
In short, I guess that the video symbolises Abel's life as a never-ending cycle: despite the changes he stayed the same.
"I keep telling myself, I don't need it anymore..."
Isss thisss worthyyyyyyyyy????? th-cam.com/video/2lVJD1iStEs/w-d-xo.html
@@ArlanaGradne no
but why there is no after hours official mv
Dude NO ! 😂 In the album Heartless comes after this song. There is no cycle or anything , until I bleed out is supposed to be the last track/ video of the entire story of After Hours . As much as I'd like your theory to be true , it simply doesn't make sense
Wrong feeling
Hands down to the most underrated weeknd song
Love love love
2017: starboy
2020: snowchild
2023: earthlad
2026: flamekid
Star
Earth
Fire

Long ago, the four nations lived in harmony, then, everything Changed when the weeknd attacked.

0:10 Abel recalls his past in Toronto where he released his first mixtapes
0:46 Kissland exposes him to the limelight and the materialism of fame
1:09 Abel moves to LA where he drops his 'biggest' commercial record 'Beauty Behind the Madness'
1:55 Now Starboy has dropped, Abel understands the facade that is Hollywood (women disguised as panthers)
2:44 My dear Melancholy shows the damage the fame and fakeness of celebrity life and dating has had on him
3:13 Present...
Damn

love the vibe of this song, cant stop listening 🔥
This album was released in march and i discovered it in october 2020 , and at the end of december i traveled to beirut to visit my aunt's big family (my 34-40 years old cousins and their children) , i spend some of my time listening to abel music especially this track , it kept playing in my head when we went to baskinta village , i can say clearly abel made me a lot of memories there
he's a starboy, but also a snowchild.
Was thinking the same.
He can't decide because he was Blinded by the Light
He's also virgin, don't forget! teehee

and now he's Don King
The only singer who can bring back the 80's culture : retro, anime,those shoes,jackets, gadgets, drums, synthesizers and so much more
Anime is always culture bro
You are forgetting the influece of Daft punk
Did you just say he brought back jackets 🤣🤣
Drums?? Fym 😂😂
"those shoes" you mean dress shoes?
