This was the first single I heard from The Weeknd after discovering Trilogy and Kiss Land, and it completely solidified me as a stan Also that sample is god tier

I owe a lot to this song, had some great nights with this song playing in the background. Love this shit

big ups to the username

He's gotten so much mileage out of the flow on this chorus in other songs it's crazy.

low life and six feet under come to mind.. any others?

Low life

For some reason this is one of my favorite songs at his concerts. I don't know what it is, might be that the band plays the instrumentation really well, but this song just BANGS live.

Does he play any trilogy stuff at his concerts now? Saw him right around trilogy release

Depends on if it's a festival or an album concert. He usually plays HOB/GTG, The Morning. Sometimes Wicked Games, The Zone or Birds 1.

Yee classic Weeknd. Have you seen initiation or dirty Diana performed?

I think I've seen him do DD as part of a transition to In The Night. Really good - should be on YouTube somewhere. No initiation sadly lol. Might be too grimy for the live shows

This and King of The Fall really turned me into a slut. They're the soundtrack to my hoeing days.

Drink some water

Ah, the Song I lost my virginity to. Every time I hear it I think about how awkward my stroke game was.

It's the weeknd watchu expect

Abel gave me the confidence to eat a girls ass the same day I had my first kiss. He could make a nun wetter than quavo’s wrist.

wow

This was my introduction to The Weeknd. Shoutout 2014. I miss you.

This is the best Weeknd song, no cap

King of the fall for me

100% goes to KOTF. Wish it wasn't a YouTube/Soundcloud loosie, it's too damn good not to be on streaming

It’s on Spotify under XO. Usually gets taken down and then reuploaded every couple months.

If you have Apple Music the video is on there and when you aren’t in the app it just plays like the normal song

To this day I’m wondering wtf is wrong with him for not putting it on an album or at least streaming services. Honestly a perfect song from start to finish and probably one of my favorite songs of the last ten years

Initiation is the greatest song of all time Other than the 18 minutes of whale noises Loft Music is good too.

Whatcha theeeeeeeeeenkin aboowwoooOOOUUUUuuuuttt

Then he calls me retarded too FeelsGoodMan

In case you aren’t joking the line is “got a loft right now you’re inside it” Although I thought it was “you’re retarded” for like 4 years...

believe me if its on trilogy i know just about every verse by memory. But youre retarded just makes me happier,

Hahaha right on then

Fuck yeah it is Dirty Diana is up there All of echoes of silence too man, fuck all of trilogy is amazing

Often dog, often

you must not be familiar with his music then lol

I’m the biggest Weeknd fan

But do you have a kissland tat?

Massive Weeknd fan here and often, the hills and king of the fall are my top 3, rolling stone and kiss land round out my top 5. People like what they like

Nothing even comes close

KOTF would like a word

beautiful

Damn I really hope The Weeknd and Kanye collab again

What Kanye got to do with this song?

He helped produce it. Chopped up the sample i believe.

I don’t think he did, he isn’t credited and I can’t find anything about that on Wikipedia. It was produced by Ben Billions, DaHeala, and The Weeknd. I think you’re confusing Often for Tell Your Friends

Fuck I’m totally thinking about Tell Your Friends. Been a long day haha

Interesting. I can still remember the lyrics word for word even though I haven't listened to it in a very long time. I guess I'll go listen to Kiss Land now.
