Mayday T dot forever yu already know ✊🏽 Abels virtually my twin 😂 we’re both Canadians of Ethiopian descent, and my moms family name is Tesfaye 👀 I would make a joke that we might be related but virtually 1 in 3 Ethiopians have the Tesfaye surname
@@noodle7725 lol, and if he did? You're missing his point, Abel is spontaneously talented, and it shows. That's awesome to behold! Let's agree on that, no?
Carlos Vazquez I remember getting both Heartless and Blinding Lights before they were officially released and boy did I have both songs stuck in my head.
He's def growing as a performer and it makes me so happy for him, one thing i noticed tho is he doesnt use his falsetto as much anymore, probably has more of an effect on him now than before
We missed him ! He did the take 3 times so we got that fun energetic energy a lot it was such an amazing experience and knowing it was being filmed live
Of course it’s him. He’s always had a great natural voice. This is why he became popular very quick. He actually made a mistake in this performance halfway his voice went a little flat but he picked it up. But I loved it. It’s natural to not be robotically perfect. It’s organic.
cause it seems like eveyones banking on nostalgia nowadays. when his money dries up hell eventually even go back to his own old music/sound. I ain’t hatin tho, this shit slaps way harder than most shit out today, plus I’ll forever support Abel as that’s my Habesha/ Ethiopian brother ✊🏾 🇪🇹. We ain’t got much people repping us, especially now that Nipsey Hussles gone 😒
I am absolutely obsessed with him and this song right now and I'm currently watching all of his live performances of this song... this one is one of the best. Just wish the camera was a bit closer to him.
This is such a sick live performance. Ive never seen something like this or the Heartless performance done this good on a late night show before. The weeknd is on another level!
That shit gave me literal chills. To see him go from where he started, to where he is now, there no words to describe how incredibly impactful his music has been to so many people
As someone who was born in the 90s and most of my personality shaped in the 00s, 80s music is the best! I have an entire playlist for that decode. I don’t know why it is bout that time, but the music was straight up bangers!
@@IrissA27 i went to my first concert of his in Tulsa, OK during his Starboy tour in 2017.. i still get chills when I watch the videos I took. He has the best live singing voice of all time and idc what anyone has to say about it. You HAVE to see him in person!
Hes turning out to be the best artist of this generation. His live performances are absolutely astonishing and his persona is incredible. Love this man's music.
abel absolutely KILLED IT, as per usual! i have a feeling that the reason this performance was aired in black and white because this performance was also the filming of the music video which will be the color version. just a theory
You’re right. I went to see the performance live on Wednesday in the morning. He recorded the music video for blinding lights a total of 4 times. We weren’t allowed to record or anything like that. That’s why some people were holding mirrors.
Dick Carlsson I’m 50 too! This song just is so 80s..so many songs come to mind...take on me, twighlight zone, hungry like the wolf, ohhhhh imma like this decade I do believe!
Hi I am 52 years old and this guy has a great voice. The first time I did hear this song I really thought it's an old song of the 80s. Really enjoying all his songs. What a voice just wow
Hey.. guys 🙂... I hope this gets seen.. I am an rnb/soul singer from Nigeria 🇳🇬 trying to get my sound HEARD..🔊 So if you guys can like this comment so more people notice it .. it will mean the world to me❤... I hope you all are having a great day love❤❤..
My mans forgot his own lyrics @2:40 trying to say “drowning in the night” instead of “blinded by the lights” and corrected himself halfway, saying “I’m drownin ry the lights”, yet still managed to make it sound heavenly. 😂🔥
Jose Saenz bad bunny is the most overrated creature to walk this earth, he sounds exactly like all the reggaeton legends from the late 90s and early 2000s, he’s corny, nothing original about his sound.
he is one of the best live performers i’ve ever seen, he actually sounds better live than in the studio, that’s incredible and this performance shows it, amazing
I'm 30, never been in a club. 80's songs and soundalikes like this song are lived in an 80's car at 1AM on a warm summer night with windows rolled down. ;)
I just got a call from Spotify. They called and asked if I was okay. They thought something was wrong because they have millions of songs available and I’ve been listening to this song on repeat for a week straight nonstop. They were worried. Lol
its a fact that he uses autotune, he is using it live as well. In 2:05 you can hear it clearly. That doesnt mean that is a good or a bad singer, Weeknd is such a good singer!! but is true that he follows the patters of the music industry.
got to be here for this video shoot, I’m in the right corner, and I wanna say what an incredible experience this was, Abel was so sweet and kind and appreciative and looked so happy to be performing in front of fans 💛

1:20 do you hear that note he hit? Name another artist right now who can do that besides the weeknd. This man is one of a kind and will go down as a legend✨🙌🏾
In my opinion, this performance was the most accurate in terms of sounding like the studio version. Don't get me wrong, I loved the other ones where he sang better than the studio version and showed off his vocal range, but this one was spot on when it comes to sounding like the studio version. The fact that he can do both is a testament to how great he is.
The Weeknd is a freaking legend.

Lmao my friend says he can't sing. 😂 I be looking at her crazy cause I seen man's 3 times live. He sounds exactly the same.
Arhon Pinéda so true
The fact that the weekend had the audience to finish the song after a week of it being released is godly
I just heard the song the first time with this performance and it made me feel like I must have been living on a different planet this week🤣
Imagine how that felt. That's a man sitting on the throne while he watches his fans appreciate for what he has created.
What can be said man, the song is so fucking addictive after 2 or 3 hearing. Way better than Heartless.
xo don't you forget
Carlos Vazquez I remember getting both Heartless and Blinding Lights before they were officially released and boy did I have both songs stuck in my head.
3:13 When the audience began to sing the chorus. Man! I got some real goosebumps here.
Truly ,one of the best songs of The Weeknd! #addicted
really is!
Me too
and the fun thing is the song was released a few days earlier to this show
When he hit that "Oooooh" I felt that.
Ah Eh 1:20?
@@F3tcher probably 2:55
How did it feel
2:38 yall
dude fr!
Is it me? Or hes growing as a performer and more confident in his voice.
Michael Chavez he lost his stage fright
Probably because he start to learn singing alone and now he's increasing his singing tecnique
He's def growing as a performer and it makes me so happy for him, one thing i noticed tho is he doesnt use his falsetto as much anymore, probably has more of an effect on him now than before
Ur mom
Antonio Sanichar not using falsetto is a good thing, means he can full voice the higher notes without having to break into a weak falsetto
He looks so happy while performing and when the crowd sang for him he looked so excited ☺️♥️
It has been over a year since he performed live. Bet he misses the crowds
We missed him ! He did the take 3 times so we got that fun energetic energy a lot it was such an amazing experience and knowing it was being filmed live
@@XOTWODink The performance wasn't one take? Darn 😂. Oh well, at least the end result was perfect.
The fact the audience sang the song did it for me! 🔥🔥🔥
@yodagaming each time was perfect he just did it to do it not because it didn’t come out a certain way
Is that really him singing? No lip sync? Jesus Christ dude. I'm speechless, he's amazing.
he's so talented!
Of course it’s him. He’s always had a great natural voice. This is why he became popular very quick. He actually made a mistake in this performance halfway his voice went a little flat but he picked it up. But I loved it. It’s natural to not be robotically perfect. It’s organic.
Of course it's him singing this isn't some biopic or music vid
The Weeknd and Post Malone need to do a collab song
Its actually on 2:43 to be exact

@@therealbyrdman86diego24 SAME!
It's Young Turks by Rod Stewart.
This song hits harder than Heartless & needs it's own mv.
it will most likely have one
Well it does. Technically it's an ad tho
That's not the video. One is coming.
This could count, the end where he steps on stage and the mirrored view it looked like a Concert rather than a Late Night Show
this is the mv
The crowd are truly XO and I'm literally crying
Masta Wayne they filmed it the day before it aired and it was open to X’O. It was just a random selection and I didn’t get the chance to go
3:26 when he let the audience finish and they knew the lyrics, he had to had felt “yes, I fuckin did it. They love it”
I am absolutely obsessed with him and this song right now and I'm currently watching all of his live performances of this song... this one is one of the best. Just wish the camera was a bit closer to him.
He went from homeless to a whole crowd singing his song in 10 years
This is such a sick live performance. Ive never seen something like this or the Heartless performance done this good on a late night show before. The weeknd is on another level!
Wyatt Tibbitts I agree bro

IKR, amazing evolution across the years
This song proves that 80s synth sounds aren't exclusively 80s anymore - they're very much 2020s too (and prob beyond) - love his live performance!
And this song begs for a 10 minute live version with band - but that's just me.

In my opinion, this performance was the most accurate in terms of sounding like the studio version. Don't get me wrong, I loved the other ones where he sang better than the studio version and showed off his vocal range, but this one was spot on when it comes to sounding like the studio version. The fact that he can do both is a testament to how great he is.
I was obsessed with this version for months.
Same here....all his Colbert performances were great
Its nothing like live performances when the artist voice sounds just as gold as the recording my god love this guy and his music amazing artist
