      I left a comment on this video and it's been deleted since then lol.. What I said was my people this is so good and you can feel so much emotion and pain in the songs because it's satanic. It's satan working through him hence the "I was never there" did you know in heaven lucifer was the angel of music? This is satans specialty. The weeknd had straight up said he's sold his sold listen in his songs like Ordinary Life give a close listen. He even flashes the name Satan in his live concerts! I have video of it. HOWEVER ABEL you can be saved, for your soul will always belong to Jesus and not Satan, repent its not worth it there's a beautiful place in heaven for you and your voice and it'll be a million times more beautiful ✨

      Totally. Yes. Mostly because the expresion in his face is simply purest, when that part is being played and the person filming makes that zoom in to Abel. That anguish, moving his head with that raw sadness and pain all over his gaze. I have no words to describe how intense this is and how relatable I've felt since I heard I Was Never There for the first time.

    The Weeknd is a genius. I don't think anyone else at the moment can touch him in terms of creativity and pure talent.He is constantly is breaking and remaking the mold of his own image/sound and can cross /blur lines continually experimenting and expanding...keeping up the enigma refusing to be pigeonholed /tied to one predictable style. To me he is the greatest performer/entertainer currently in the business.

    My Dear Melancholy, is the first official EP in Abel’s discography. The EP seems to follow the history of his relationships with Bella Hadid and Selena Gomez respectively. In both “Call Out My Name” and “Try Me” he focuses on his relationship with Selena and his attempts to “let go” after the breakup. In “Wasted Times” he compares the former relationship to the relationship he had with Hadid, and then later blames his depression on Selena in “I Was Never There.” He then goes on to distance himself from Selena in “Hurt You” and then ends it by saying goodbye to Selena, declaring that he will be back to his old ways of drugs, alcohol and sex in “Privilege.”

Abel has suffered so much and I am just so fucking proud of him. Abel's music will always and forever be in my heart and the XO Fam's hearts

      Mitch Wilkins well after listening to his stuff for 5 years now, i really don’t get the impression that he’s happy. Don’t get me wrong, without all the heartbreak from this girl and without his own problems that he deals with on a mental level, his music wouldn’t be the same. He channels all his emotions into his music, it’s beautiful but sad. I know he’s super famous now, and I’m sure that made him happy a bit, he broke out of the underground, but he still seems sad :(

    The Weeknd is an Aquarius and the way he sings is mesmerizing but yet its so dark and addicting. He is so mysterious and private but his music and lyrics shine a light for his life and he feeds is his emotions raw. Such raw talent that he has. He lets you into the dark and consoles us and lets us listen to it and feel out emotions and once he is done, he gives us our lives back and lets us keep our emotions. Plus, he takes the time out to really listen to his fans! Kudos to him. A really underrated artist and his music as well.

      Alex Matias Charlie has no problem airing out all his laundry, so if him and Selena actually dated, he would've confirmed it. And Niall and Selena never dated either. Just because two people are seen hanging out together does not mean they were a couple. Lastly, how about you just enjoy the music and stop dragging Selena's name into it. Or any other name for that matter.

    "I realize now what is Love,
    It's when u feel broken
    And it's heart.
    Heartbreaking is behind,
    But u know that u're alone.
    U trying to make urself understand what's going on, but u enjoy and waste ur time."
    That's what "I Was Never There" is.

    When I first heard “I Was Never There” I left a comment on the official TH-cam audio video that got upvoted alot surprisingly lol I jokingly said “this shit makes me want to get into a relationship just to break up and then feel this way 😂”. Since then I’ve met someone. And I’m terrified that the universe is about to fuck with me 🤔

      Just don't approach your relationship in the same manner as The Weeknd.
