clark kent michael jackson already lost his voice few years before he died so I dont know if that song would be really good lol but yeah mj is a legend r.i.p
4:20 that outro is definitely one of the classiest outros I’ve heard, when the piano goes up the scale and back down so elegantly as Abels beautiful voice is fading out with those “yeahs” fucking masterpiece.
How come this live performance only has 3.5 millions views? What a tremendous singer, his control, tone, coloration, the range he has with his chest voice he is simply spectacular. Huge fan!
he's fucking stoned off some coke or something. you can tell immediately when you look at his eyes how glossy they are, and how he's licking his lips constantly.
InfinityOnHi not coke. If it was coke he would be running around the stage and shit. It's probably just weed and thats why he licks his lips. Coz his mouth is dry.
You know someone has real talent when they sing live and sound just like the original recording…. Now that’s talent without any electronic interference
Im blown away by the passion and conviction of The Weeknd. One of the best current vocalists on the planet right now. I can hear the MJ influence but not enough to ruin his sound. I wish i could sing as well as he does.
the vocal fucking range and being able to add sum spice still sounding incredible. Abel forever will be him when it comes to artists. Pure damn TALENT. ❤
Adam Johnson No way Michael Jackson had a series of vocal range he could even beat box and his voice was the beat for an entire song or part of the song at times and he was very good at singing live and having it sound like the record. The Weeknd while I love this song his live performances of it he puts way too much flare in fans want to hear the song as it was not a Michael Jackson impression of the song some of his body actions and his little voice inputs like 2:10 but he's missing the scratchy vocal roar MJ did during those parts, but clearly he's def a MJ fan and is inspired by him.
***** I guess? I don't know if they were the best in the world there's so many good singers out there that will prob never even be discovered but the awards he won certainly gave him the title at the time.
ApocZak to me mj's live performences are not that good he moved around to much and screwed up his pitches and got tired a lot but i only listened to like 4 songs live so i dont know
+Budi Santoso look man I like other singer but specially one and only Mj magical voice iss so different and plz don't compare other singer // some guys say he's second Mj / jb new King of pop noo, weeknd fantastic Singer I respect so plz don't compare
Not many artists can get out there and sing their songs live anymore. He sounds like the recorded version for the most part, so at least we know it's really him singing it without many effects.
You make it look like it's magic 'Cause I see nobody, nobody but you, you, you I'm never confused Hey, hey I'm so used to being used So I love when you call unexpected 'Cause I hate when the moment's expected So I'ma care for you, you, you I'ma care for you, you, you, you, yeah 'Cause girl you're perfect You're always worth it And you deserve it The way you work it 'Cause girl you earned it Girl you earned it, yeah You know our love would be tragic (Oh, yeah) So you don't pay it, don't pay it no mind We live with no lies Hey, hey You're my favorite kind of night So I love when you call unexpected 'Cause I hate when the moment's expected So I'ma care for you, you, you I'ma care for you, you, you, you, yeah 'Cause girl you're perfect (Girl, you're perfect) You're always worth it (You're always worth it) And you deserve it (And you deserve it) The way you work it (The way you work it) 'Cause girl you earned it Girl you earned it, yeah On that lonely night (Lonely night) You said it wouldn't be love But we felt the rush It made us believe it there was only us (Only us) Convinced we were broken inside, yeah, inside, yeah 'Cause girl you're perfect (Girl, you're perfect) You're always worth it (You're always worth it) And you deserve it (And you deserve it) The way you work it (The way you work it) 'Cause girl you earned it, yeah Girl you earned it, yeah (Earned it, no, no, ooh) 'Cause girl you're perfect You're always worth it And you deserve it
To think he started out in a pot,then transfered to a neighborhood in Los Angeles to now performing all around the world this palm tree is truly inspiring
to recall how i met this abel when he performed at my college in hamilton when he (and me) were 21 is incredible - i knew he would get big time but not to this extent so proud of him
The song that can easily pull at my heartstrings. This song was made for Abel, the SOUL in his voice makes me speechless every time I listen to this live version. I adore him sm. A legend. XOTWOD.
Weeknd is the best singer around. He knows his stuff. He knows about music and singing techniques. His hair is a trademark. I don't like it that much. But I'm more focused on his voice and delivery. I liked him before I even knew how he looked it! I love you cuz you Weeknd baby, you earned it!
went from "pre grammy live" to "fuck the Grammys" in 5 years...GOALS
*GOALS*
His next album is gonna be 😷
To Superbowl Halftime Show
I don’t blame him. He has so much talent. And has been completely ignored. I’d flip them the bird too.
Oscar nominated song
if Michael Jackson was still alive how awesome would it have been if they made a song together
clark kent it would be cool and awesome 🙂
clark kent right
clark kent 😍
clark kent michael jackson already lost his voice few years before he died so I dont know if that song would be really good lol but yeah mj is a legend r.i.p

No lip singing. He can hit any note without struggling. True talent 👏 👌
❤️
That song is fucking hard to sing for real.
🙏🙏🙏👀😇💙💜💚
@@JayJay-np5od for real the amount of voice cracks I have trynna hit the high notes and let’s not forget losing air dammm he’s good.😭
@@JayJay-np5od it has a high falsetto in the pre chorus, especially the earned it part one of the hardest songs to sing most def

Young Childsupport dead 😭😭😭😘 he looks really nice now after he cut it . He looks clean
Isrial he was unknown in 2011 idiot
Young Childsupport I thought that hair was dope

Wish that was on the studio version
@@jbizzle2232 it is bro. Just probably sung abit differently here live. But it is, his voice is distorted on the studio one at the end.
@@theforsaken4489 ah shit you are right, the live version is way better
You are SO right. That brought tears to my eyes.
Such a clean voice. No autotune bullshit.
Shut up

lol my pineapple can sing..love to all sexy Ethiopians
I love how he performs this in a different style, like the way he pronounces some words almost with a British accent, sounds so elegant and beautiful
He grew up in Canada so he speaks differently
How come this live performance only has 3.5 millions views? What a tremendous singer, his control, tone, coloration, the range he has with his chest voice he is simply spectacular. Huge fan!

he almost sounds like Michael Jackson in some parts

Abel just sings how ever the fuck he feels like lmfao he's not a perfectionist and I love that lmao
Manny ViiF his singing to how he feel
Manny ViiF hes high I think
he's fucking stoned off some coke or something. you can tell immediately when you look at his eyes how glossy they are, and how he's licking his lips constantly.
InfinityOnHi not coke. If it was coke he would be running around the stage and shit. It's probably just weed and thats why he licks his lips. Coz his mouth is dry.
Fvck Yxu you can't sing well with dry mouth. And you lick your lips if theyre dry not because youre mouth is xD
What most people don't know is that he is singing this song a half step higher than the Original Key he recorded. Amazing!!!
this guy literally sounds so much better live than the studio version, like how the hell?
His voice is absolutely legit! Amazing live performance!
Holy Sh*t he sounds EXACTLY like Michael Jackson at 2:10
ikr
I just saw you said that too!!
+MrMademoiselleJessi but his song "In the Night" thoooo.... like literally he's the new age MJ...
Agreed all the way
MrMademoiselleJessi
You know someone has real talent when they sing live and sound just like the original recording…. Now that’s talent without any electronic interference
this is my favourite Weeknd performance the vocal inflections and performance is so beautiful.
Im blown away by the passion and conviction of The Weeknd.
One of the best current vocalists on the planet right now.
I can hear the MJ influence but not enough to ruin his sound.
I wish i could sing as well as he does.
i disagree
+moonacrehoney how so?
Great comment. 👍
Não há como michael jackson
God damn. Those vocals and this performance are INSANE! Thanks for the upload.
+JVSON P He has no range. He has a nice voice and sounds like Maxwell, but he can't blow like Maxwell.
His voice avg at best
Theron Wright okay nigga like you can do better
@@rickjames7483 are you deaf dumb and blind
@@theronwright1413 another deaf dumb and blind moron
This is definitely the performance that the "Save Your Tears" music video was supposed to emulate/reference. This dude is incredible.
Good to see you guys here
I didn't know it was even possible to hit those notes in a live performance... AMAZING
Yes if you can sing and had some vocal training
@@krystedeleon7112 I bet you can my man
I'm pretty sure MJs spirit tried to break outta weeknd at 2:10
💀💀💀

2:10 he sounded JUST LIKE MICHAEL JACKSON! :O
omg
Someone says he's the second Michael
Johnny J maybe he's michael reincarnated o.O
noemistephanie93 Possible :o
Johnny J that would be cool if it was true lol
2:10 Michael Jackson has entered the chat
You just don't hear voices like his too often... unbelievable! Best voice around today.. IMO
Chills every time I listen to this performance, he is TOO good
I agree
2:10 michael jackson
really ?????
Verdade.
Hahahahahah
No no no xd he wants to sound like him...but in live in my opinion the Weeknd its worse than recorded songs...
@@davidsan2w ok david. no one cares about your shitty opinions
Abel - "hey hey"
Michael - "hee hee"
guys voice is magical.
he is incredible. one can only be reminded of Michael Jackson. Abel brings this modern aesthetic and darkness.
He's one of the few artists who can sing live without an autotune or needing to lip sync
the vocal fucking range and being able to add sum spice still sounding incredible. Abel forever will be him when it comes to artists. Pure damn TALENT. ❤
Never compare him,he has his own style. Love it 🥰
The Weeknd is an amazing artist and I love his music. He's voice is just phenomenal❤️❤️❤️
I love how he’s mysterious and an angle voice.
❤❤
True!!!!
This dude is no doubt MJ inspired with how he sings in his live performances very similar.
He sounds better than Micheal Jackson
Adam Johnson
No way Michael Jackson had a series of vocal range he could even beat box and his voice was the beat for an entire song or part of the song at times and he was very good at singing live and having it sound like the record. The Weeknd while I love this song his live performances of it he puts way too much flare in fans want to hear the song as it was not a Michael Jackson impression of the song some of his body actions and his little voice inputs like 2:10 but he's missing the scratchy vocal roar MJ did during those parts, but clearly he's def a MJ fan and is inspired by him.
*****
I guess? I don't know if they were the best in the world there's so many good singers out there that will prob never even be discovered but the awards he won certainly gave him the title at the time.
Its Michael Jackson not Micheal Jackson
ApocZak to me mj's live performences are not that good he moved around to much and screwed up his pitches and got tired a lot but i only listened to like 4 songs live so i dont know
One of my favorite artists. He is so talented
293 dislikes are from Justin Bieber followers 🤣
Am a fan of jb but i do love the weekend he sounds like jb he good
They are both talented Canadian Artists...
Absolutely right
@@sheltersweet3880 not jb.theweeknd is more talented than jb

i totally agree
Majid Yanc yup i do agree with you bro
this performance is literally everything. he feels the music and the lyrics and it makes the song 100x better when it's performed live
This is one of my favorite song!!! It’s so beautiful!!!❤️❤️❤️
0:50 Max Martin looking at him like a proud father lol
Not many artists can get out there and sing their songs live anymore. He sounds like the recorded version for the most part, so at least we know it's really him singing it without many effects.
Sorry but he doesn’t sound like the recorded version of the song at all. Clearly his voice in that studio had used a lot of auto tune.
@@filochick-fy6ro bro u were 6 years late 💀 and hes gonna sound way different in the studio even without autotune
In my opnion, his music is so completely different from other artists that make his feature
This song never gets old !
Honestly, this song is really difficult to sing and not somebody else could sing as he did.
It was just Amazing.
The guy at 0:50 ...will probably be me if i ever go on a live performance by The Weeknd :D
It is Max Martin, one of the worlds most famous producers
The most successful person in the room. like 20+ number ones.
wrote some of abel's tunes too
Georgi S. Lmao
Max Martin !
2:09 "I'm finna pull up" - MJ spirit

Phenomenal!! Abel and The Weeknd should win every music award on the planet. Timeless music.
Amazing singer. Didn't know how good he was until the Grammy's. It was very refreshing to see someone with so much talent perform.
I would say this is his best performance of this song live of all time.
True.
Agree
I’m obsessed with his live performances
Hard to imagine a better live version of a wonderful song.
