Fun fact about Gone: he said in an interview that he does not remember recording that song, that he was on so many substances in the studio that he just freestyled the entire thing
That explains a lot😂
That's why he's gone
That makes a lot of sense it sounds like he was faded af the entire song lol plus it’s 8 minutes lmao
Same with the longer songs on hob. He said he was high and freestyling as well 😂 I assume with party and after party and again with glass table girls
on which interview?
Rolling stone is a mind trip when you realize he’s speaking to his fans and how he predicts his future success and sound change.
That plus same goes with the girl, hoping after his change, which he hope he doesn’t, when the mystery fades, will she still be there at the end
Yeah rolling stone feels like the prelude to kiss land in how he portrays he’s own fame.
@@Prodbyjah464 More like BBTM, Kissland didn't take off the way he thought so he went full mainstream after
Thursday on a Thursday
Very appropriate and a must
A must
Literally
The Birds Part 2 is the darkest and painful song I've ever heard. It's incredible how Abel uses a gunshot sound as the beat of the song and Valerie crying and sobbing at the beginning of the song before killing herself after Abel's rejection is something that leaves you unable to move, speechless and about to drown with your own sea of tears
In concerts back in time he used to perform an interlude, that too could've been an awesome track
I think Valerie kills Abel so that she can fall out of love.
the birds pt. 2 is one of my favorite songs on thursday. he's a bird, it's in his nature move on, to see other women. she's legit begging him not to, with a gun to her head, as he leaves. she is then finally out of love with him. she took her life, the only way to fall out of love with him. GORGEOUS. this song perfectly captures relationships in the present era, the madness of the weeknd considering valerie is a real person & the way people barely survive without their partner, no matter how cruel.
yep😭
Fell in love with Life of the Party the very first time i heard it. One of my favorites
💯💯
Twenty eight and Valerie are arguably The Weeknd’s best songs. Till Dawn is great too. Crazy how those were just bonus tracks.
Listen to till dawn again and some more
The grass is always greener on the other side.
Wicked games still better imo
@@raeyei5969 facts and the knowing
The knowing and wicked games are better than twenty eight and Valerie lol
i’ll never forget hearing the birds pt1 for the first time
Brooo😫
The first weeknd song I ever heard was the birds pt 2 while on acid, been hooked since
My interpretation of “I’ll be different, I think I’ll be different” on Rolling Stone is that he’s telling his fans he won’t sell out and will keep true to his sound. Then he admits when faced with the decision between a making a ton of money and staying true to himself, he hopes he’ll choose the money due to the less than desirable circumstances of his upbringing - “I hope I’m not different and I hope you’ll still listen” and “I’m in a life without a home so this recognitions not enough”.
It’s really cool how Abel basically prophesied his own meteoric rise. I also thinks he’s done a better job than most artists to keep his core fan base happy.
Yes rolling stone is basically him talking to us and letting us know that he’s going to change. “I know I’ll be different, and I hope you’ll still listen”. “And baby love me, before they all love me” like we should enjoy the kind of music he made at the time before the change and he reaches a broader audience. He made a music video where he represents this. Also gone was just a long ass freestyle 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Listening to Life of the Party is like a transcendental experience
Thursday is criminally underrated in the trilogy because it was a follow-up to the jaw dropping debut project that was HOB. Can’t wait to see you react to my personal favourite next, EOS ☺️
💯💯
Bro I agree, When this mixtape dropped and if you were in that party drug lifestyle, this mixtapes gives HOB a challenge anyday
apparently ‘Gone’ was a total freestyle he did while super faded in the studio which would explain why it doesn’t necessarily fit in with the storyline
It also have meaning on this mixtape. Basically he’s masking all the emotions (by drugs) he got after what happened between him and Valerie.
Not a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday...
You're really good at this btw. You say interesting things and phrase them in a way that encapsulates it.. even tho these tapes are a decade old.. the way you describe it sounds unique.
The remorse you’re looking for this storyline with Valerie is in the song Valerie(bonus track). Also you’ve got it right that she shot herself in the birds pt2, cuz that’s the only way she could stop loving him sadly. And gone is just a freestyle that he did while high af irl, but for the storyline it’s basically him getting high on drugs and all to mask the emotions, he does care(as seen in Valerie) but he doesn’t want to show it or admit it just yet.
you’re one of my favorite reactors i’ve ever seen when it comes to digesting the weeknd’s material. thank you!
I could listen to a whole song where he only sings “ooohh woahooowoaaahhhh” the entire song
i love watching people react to the weeknd
Heaven or las vegas is probably my favorite because of those drums and the guitar very unique sounds
A stand alone track that I think should've made it into the trilogy series even just as a bonus was the song titled "Enemy". It didn't make it onto any of his projects but it still captures this darker period of his life. So maybe that could be included in your "bonus tracks" reaction. He's got a lot of stand alone promo's but this was one of the most cold-hearted imo.
add "for your eyes only" to that bonus tracklist
Enemy is a must. Trust issues too
Also Heavenly Creatures
Thursday is definitely a sleeper, such a vibe. My favorite is definitely Lonely Star tho
The gunshot In The Birds pt. 2 is Valerie shooting the girl Abel cheated on her with. The one she mentiones in the line 'Let me fall out of love before you fuck her'. The same line he famously used years later in Call Out My Name but in a completely reversed situation with him begging and the girl leaving for another person. Enjoying your reactions can't wait for EoS
Fun Fact:The opening track, “Lonely Star,” begins with pitched-up vocals that were a source of speculation at the time. In a 2015 Pitchfork interview, the Toronto singer said that while the intro uses his voice, it’s heavily inspired by Lana Del Rey.“The whole monologue intro on ‘Lonely Star’ from Thursday-I just realized now that that’s Lana. That’s Lana’s voice,” said The Weeknd. “I mean, it’s my voice pitched up, but it’s her, it’s who she is.”
As The Weeknd further explained, he and Del Rey had been friends for a long time and served as inspirations in each other’s music. “I feel like we’ve always been talking to each other through our music. She is the girl in my music, and I am the guy in her music,” he explained. “It’s just this ghostly collaboration that feels the most natural on [Beauty Behind the Madness].”
In addition to inspiring each other, The Weeknd and Del Rey are frequent collaborators. Lana appears on “Prisoner” from his aforementioned 2015 album, Beauty Behind the Madness, as well as The Starboy cuts, “Party Monster” and “Stargirl Interlude.” The Weeknd returned the favor in 2017 on “Lust for Life.”

I’m surprised Thursday wasn’t put after lonely star instead life of the party was lol
@@jcambriz5697 If u follow up the story of Thursday then, u'll understand why LIFE OF THE PARTY comes before THURSDAY.
Lonely Star is the overview of the story
Listeners get some ideas what the album is about then, the story starts with LIFE OF THE PARTY (as he is currently in a party getting high n abusing drugs with random girls) and ends with THE BIRDS PART 2. Just to let u know 😅
In the song Rolling Stone, Abel is using the girl as an analogy to address his old fans and asking them to not to leave him as he was getting mainstream attention. He literally predicted his success as his new music doesn't sound anything like the triology.
Yay
was waiting for this
Even though Gone was pretty much a freestyle, I think it still fits the narrative. He just couldn't deal with what happened in Birds pt. 2 (whether she shot herself or him) and went back to his usual activities to numb the pain. His voice sound very painful there. Like, lirically he still tries to convince you and the girl that he's in control, but soundwise it seems like he's completely lost his mind.
BTW Rolling stone was a message to XO about him blowing up & moving on to the industry. At the time we ALL wanted him to stay lowkey and not be the pop star he is now. I.e "ill be different, They all love me, I hope im not different, Hope you will still listen" I remember when he dropped the video it was confirmed for the fans
You can not understand how much I'm waiting for you to hear initiation. It's my favorite weeknd song out of all his discography, if you couldn't tell by my name and profile pic, haha.
yeah fax out of trilogy is one of my favourite tracks, can’t wait for her to hear
baby get familiar with the order, just crack it, then pour it, then sip slow, then tip low, my eyes red but my brim low, that XO, she climbing.. straight to the top, forgetting why she there in the first place
I was waiting for this upload🙏
Love your reactions! Started binging them :)
I love ur reactions briana
I love goin through these mixtapes w someone else and seeing their reaction. Personally, Heaven or Las Vegas is my favorite and I like how he recalled back to it in After hours w the theme. Keep up the great reactions, love the hair too!
Also I’m so happy Coming Down grew on you :)
So In the Birds pt.1 and 2, my takeaway is him warning "Valerie" initially not to fall in love with someone like him bc it's going to end with her getting hurt.. she didn't listen and ended getting heart broken to the point I think she kills herself in the beginning of pt. 2. And pt. 2 was her pleading to him, let me fall out of love before you break my heart by sleeping with another woman. Instead, she suffers to the point of taking her own life. The birds symbolize Abel as being a free bird, unable to commit to one person/relationship. It is kinda fucked up like you said, but he did warn her🤷♂️
i love how your fav track kept on changing, it shows how his projects are full of goated tracks
liked before i even watched the video :) love what you are doing, always looking forward to a new reaction from you!
Love your analysis of his songs
I like how you're able to unpack these tracks 👍👍👍
YES NEW VIDEO 😭
i absolutely love the zone it’s one of my favs on thursday
I can’t wait for the EoS reaction! It’s such a strong mixtape! Nice reaction as always :)
You droppin the video on thursday makes a lot of sense. Love your reactions
Your taste in music is great & I love what you have to say in your videos. Especially about The Weeknd. Best reaction channel!
You did your makeup so well! You look very pretty
I like your sense of humor. Thursday on a Thursday 🙏
in love with every abel reaction of yours.
as the weeknd is not only one of the best singers off all time but also so mysterious, its really nice to hear these commentaries on his old songs and understand him just a little better...great video 👏
Love your reaction to the music. Takes you away just like it does for myself, but if I could make you my lonely star I promise I’d love you everyday including Thursday. I hope to find someone that feels the depth of music like you do someday.
Abel just freestyled "Gone" while he was high af ! So he was gone while making gone xD
Gone was basically him high and freestyling for the record label to convince them that he actually has talent for them to take him seriously and release Thursday.
Underrated Album. Underrated Channel. 🔥
this is lowkey my favorite of the three mixtapes
even though I think the other two are the better projects, this one is still my favorite
W
Fire reaction 🔥
I love the guitars
In my head gone fits the placement and had a deeper meaning. He constantly expresses the complexity of his relationships especially with females and the type of love that is exchanged between them. As much he likes to see them come and go and is a pro at letting go he’s always wanted the type of profound passionate ‘true love’ from his perfect girl. And Valerie was willing to give him all her love in return for the same. He’s a bird so he can’t stay forever. She is desperately trying to get him to stay. Giving everything that she has. Anything she has left and he still won’t accept it. The only release for her and to also show him just how much she loved him was to kill herself because it’s better to be dead than be alive another day without him. All that passion and love or whatever is like a drug to him and now he’s on some other type level shit because it’s something he’s never had before. He’s hella high. He’s gone. In order to express just how gone he is he gets higher than a plane at this point. And as a result of him getting this high he just spits out this fire ass fucking freestyle song. Keep in mind I clearly came up with this while high.
Love these weeknd reactions! Can’t wait for my personal favorite Echoes of Silence!
Also my favorite off Thursday is the birds pt 2!
💯💯
I really like your way of thinking and making theories by listening to the songs, I like moreover the way you listen to them: calm, placid, but it's clear that you are enjoing them. I'm going to wait you reaction to Echoes of silence!
Please, please do this for the EoS video: let XO/The Host play through into Initiation. They're technically two parts of the same song, and I really hope you can structure that one so you can experience that transition. I do understand what you've said in previous videos about going back later, but this one is so good and impeccably done!
this guy gets it
💯💯
Reactions are
10 outta 10 🖤
Gone is essentially a freestyle he did while high and he has no recollection of wtf he was talking about in the track
It also have meaning on this mixtape. Basically he’s masking all the emotions (by drugs) he got after what happened between him and Valerie.
Dropping a Thursday on a Thursday is wild. Nice.💯
There is a lot of unreleased Weeknd tracks out there on youtube that would be a great reaction. They are basically fully complete tracks just never slapped on a album. Some good ones are Enemy and Heavenly creatures. There is even a whole EP he never released that was leaked called the Noise EP. Lots of Weeknd material out there besides what’s published to review once your done with all the albums. Either way great review ;)
Been looking forward to this one
Life of the Party was always on when my friends had coke binges with these girls from out of town, shit was mad.
Can we appreciate her effort listening Abel
MY FAV ALBUM AFTER KISSLAND...XOTWOD
thank you
GONE >>>
Rolling stone is a letter to the fans and letting them know how his career will play out and he was right
I knew u were gonna do this
W description
Fun fact, it’s actually the weeknd pitched up whenever you hear a woman speaking
I'm just waiting for this echoes of silence reaction. Montreal is his greatest song.
Hell yeah
To your point about his vocals sounded buried on "Lonely Star", the Trilogy mix does a good job fixing that
It’s got Phil collins inspirations and was the “experimental” mixtape according to his producer/friend
I like how right after Lonely Star you said it felt like you were in a crowded room rather than alone with him like on House Of Balloons. Then you figure out why 🤯😆 Love your reactions.
The Birds pt.1 and 2 are just so fucking good.
your videos are SIIICKKK, i think you would love sza and her newest album!!!
Need to react to tory lanez alone at prom, TALENTED AF!
life of the party is by faarrrr the best song on thursday imo
you should react to (currents - tame impala) or (ok computer - radiohead) both are masterpieces
we need a movie about the trilogy
i think the gunshot in the birds is another reference to drugs. it’s kinda like in the party & the after party when the gunshot is an innuendo to shooting up, i think just the drugs to feel or cope
In an interview he said Gone is literally him really high in the studio free-styling and pandering on and on for several minutes
you should react to the bonus tracks and some unreleased songs in a video, also great reaction 😊
I’m watching this on a thurday 😭
Thursday is easily the best. I love Lonely Star, The Birds Part 2 is my favorite song, and Rolling Stone is the best song by Abel with a guitar in it. For an 8 minute song, Gone is amazing. A lot of people like The Zone too, I personally don't but it's definitely a people pleaser.
I was SO waiting for you to hear "gone" beat switch 🥵 this album is also used to have sex ...able is so popular for that haha
Echoes of Silence is my fav. But thursday and hob are tied for me
now you gotta listen to echoes of silence
Do you watch turning the tables? You and them are my favorite react videos 😊 keep up the great work!
“I get it. She’s valid” I know that has to be a joke but that still made me shake my head lmao.
“Aboot” 🤭 can’t get enough
Nice !
Amazing video! Echoes of Silence is my favourite mixtape so I hope you enjoy it :)
I LOVE THE WAY U LISTEN TO MUSIC OMG
please listen to frank oceans endless!! its really unique, one of my fav tracks
i wish i had her on thursday
Would love to see you react to Frank Ocean’s discography.
P.S You should react to "Nostalgia, Ultra" at first.
Briana only comes out on Thursday’s
