He sounds the same in live concerts as he does in his recorded songs. This proves that he does not depend on autotune. Very few mainstream artists who do this. Respect to you Abel. Also his voice is like an angel. Listening to this in 2020 and it's still amazing. A timeless song. edit: corrected some typos
@@amirnabi6705 yeah most artists dance average. The moves they they got thought from a choreographer. He does not have to. He is a genius and massive talent. Better full voice and presence and good beats than voice and dance together but half as good.
@@amirnabi6705 dua lipa for example is also not the best dancer but why should she be she's got a very good voice. Or have you seen Adele dancing. Now look at Katy Perry, imo can't sing well, puts on a show every time. As I said, in my opinion.
@@inderjeetkaur5580 bieber got his replacement in the form of laroi so they are replacable and other than Bieber none of them have been so consistent as the weekend
His live performances of Starboy are incredibleee, especially when he sings "I'm a staaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ohoooo!" Like lawdddddd :) I FEEELL THAT IN MY SOUL
Came here after 3 years. Literally got goosebumps. Undoubtedly he's one of the best live performers among many. 3:02 the little alteration is heaven to ears
Fuck Censorship. I'm 50, I love this. When I was like you guys weren't try here Artisys back in the 70s, 80s never censored: The Who-"Aaah WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU ?!!!! Don't be CENSORED! Take back Free Speech. I and many more fought for you to say what to some may be Unpleasant.
When the crowd goes wild I felt it. Love the energy the crowd gave him plus singing with him. Love this man! His voice is so natural, I felt as if I was at this live performance.
Kigoz4Life it takes time to produce in general. And if they were doing it live it would be a recreation of the instrumental. So yeah some effort is put in but not that much
Kigoz4Life No they won't I know you think you know everything but I saw them live and they're not on there MP3 or IPhone they actually use real Pianos and Real Guitars "What I'm shocked they use instruments" Ugh isn't that how you make music duh
I had the fortune saw him last year in México and I can relate to you how amazing was this concert. -Neon lights all around the palace. Beautiful girls. HIS VOICE. His band (they can feel the music and play with the soul). All these elements made the concert one of the best I ever had in my entire life. HE worth it.
gh nm omfg😂 I had downloaded it 3 days before the official release. And everyone was like.. why do you listen to American crap. The amount of joy i got when in one month it had 300.000.000 views Was like the best feeling😂🔥
Who told u tht . He is one of the best solo artists in the whole world. Trending #1 in the whole world with his music. Successful youtube musical artist with 3 songs with over 1 billion and more than 8 song over 500 million. Starboy I cant feel my face I feel it coming Call out my name. I think u dont know him ..
Abhi Meena no one told me? i personally think a lot of his music is underrated. he is only no. 1 because of blinding lights. so many songs on trilogy and kissland don’t get and haven’t got enough recognition. a lot of songs on after hours.
@@jemimajones2318 no 1 because of blinding lights...Naah...save your tears, heartless , 74 awards he got for after hours in total , (one of the most award winning album of all time ) , super bowl, working in movies got him no 1 in the world. Still he is above 70 million listeners on Spotify. jod...bro jod level ..
@@liamneslind5708 Starboy was not intended to be melodic while playing live, it's almost Hip Hop. These are live performances, so it is more than acceptable
+Bill52600. There are so many great live performers, look around dude. In mainstream Adam Lambert, Brendon Urie, Bruno Mars, Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith, Zayn Malik, Ariana Grande, Adele, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, etc. Most of them perform better than the Weeknd too.
@@charliekelly6529 ill only take Bruno Mars in the list some of them is overrated and just okay The Weeknd is my favorite singer because hes voice is so addicting once you became a fan theres no turning back XO till I overdose forever.
This is easily the best live performance I have ever seen. ❤️❤️❤️ The energy he infuses in the crowd is insane. Everything came together so beautifully. And towards the end, he kept on going though he was almost breathless. He's phenomenal! ❤️
this song NEVER gets old
Let's see in 10 years from now
Beautybyallii7 what are you saying? it's just released
WTF....song ain't even old...
You mean you don't got sick of it yet?

This song is f***ing timeless, almost 2020!

It's a damn classic

Yep
In 2020. Can confirm this is still timeless
His sound is natural
He and Michael Jackson are the kings of music

Finally an uncensored live version!!!
spencer lim Honestly!!
spencer lim IKR
spencer lim Yeah, man! I was too happy for that.
not uncensored, at the start he said "main main out of your league" when it's originally "main bitch out of your league"
spencer lim compared this one to the older versions of star boys this one is more censored then uncensored
3:50 The masterpiece 💖🐐
I wish he put that in the song
@@Calamity8 me too. Only reason why i prefer the LIVE performances better, because he hits that high note.

yeah, me too.. very Fantasic!!
Omg same aha
It's always a good time when he doesn't censor anything. Except the beginning
I think he was just super used to censoring it that he forgot that he didn't have to in this performance, haha!
Adrian Sanchez Maybe he got used of censoring the lyrics
YAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSs
Gianni Bodeutsch and he was probably reminded by the crowd that clearly sang Side Bitch ;D
cocamiu Hey, i'm making all kinds of different instrumentals, feel free to check them out if interested!
Best performance of this song I've seen so far.
Came here after 3 years. Literally got goosebumps. Undoubtedly he's one of the best live performers among many. 3:02 the little alteration is heaven to ears

Let me check that out!

Love this moment at 1:24 and how the whole crowd immediately joins him too. He's such a performer.
God Damn I gotta see this guy this shit looks lit...

I was bless to see him live & he sounds fkn amazing!!!!

I'm proud
theguythatthinks homie he said Main Main
Lyla Faith He probably realized he doesn't need to censor himself there later since he is mainly been performing censored
theguythatthinks homie it makes it more hype af
Fuck Censorship. I'm 50, I love this. When I was like you guys weren't try here Artisys back in the 70s, 80s never censored:
The Who-"Aaah WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU ?!!!!
Don't be CENSORED! Take back Free Speech. I and many more fought for you to say what to some may be Unpleasant.
theguythatthinks homie any other concert he's forced to dumb ass
3:49 - 3:56 that, my friends, is called TALENT.
Mariangel Vergel yeah, the best part from thia song when he on stage
^^ i saw him.
0:00 - 4:20 that,my friend,is called talent
Mariangel Vergel i saw him at summerfest this year and he does so many things that you dont even see in live videos that are absolutely unbelieveable
autotune
1:00 The Weeknd: Tries to sing the clean version
The audience: SIDE B*TCH OUTTA YOUR LEAGUE TO AAAH
Yeah thats what came to my mind
@Kayne Hodge ??
@Kayne Hodge Pay for what? I couldn't get your point
@@akashrao1341 I think he meant he wishes it was a clean preformas s

After the crowd said side bitch
The weeknd," I better sing the pg13 version."
THE LIGHTING REDSTONE 😂👌

loll
LOL
TLR he said main bitch first
When the crowd goes wild I felt it. Love the energy the crowd gave him plus singing with him. Love this man! His voice is so natural, I felt as if I was at this live performance.
Am I the only one who wants THE WEEKND do a live stage like this but in the background is Daft Punk performing as well in the background
"performing" playing their electronic mp3 ? lol
Kigoz4Life it takes time to produce in general. And if they were doing it live it would be a recreation of the instrumental. So yeah some effort is put in but not that much
Abdullah Alzaidi exactly. maybe play some keys lol
^obviously never seen Daft Punk perform live.
Also, if Daft Punk would perform live for once, The Weeknd would for once not be in the spotlights ;)
Kigoz4Life No they won't I know you think you know everything but I saw them live and they're not on there MP3 or IPhone they actually use real Pianos and Real Guitars
"What I'm shocked they use instruments"
Ugh isn't that how you make music duh
BUT HOW CUTE HE IS WHEN HE JUMPS aaAAAA
haha you're the one who's cute mentioning that lol
Me? I'm CUTE! Aww!😊lol
Amazing performance, and amazing crowd
No words to describe.
Impressive indeed, but that crowd was way out of their league/control.
dude this guy has a voice like no other. honestly can't put it into words he sounds so good.
This song is just a legendary hit😭🔥💥
The crowd is louder than him!!! LEGENDARY!!!!
Nope mope, with their phones and just some people jumping. Lol
Michelangelo ok

mE
Meeee
Meh

Fock brohhh...

The Weeknd: I need good music that fits my voice and saucy lyrics.....
Daft Punk: Hold my beer....

My favourite live version of all time. Live long The Weeknd, XO forever
This guy got my respect for having, acuatlly instruments playing along with his voice, instead of just machines.
