    Man, The Weeknd should get you on stage for two reasons:
    1.- Your full on 80's solo with Chorus
    2.- *S M I R K*

    This reminds me of the very beginning of a concert where the countdown clock for the main artist to come on stage has ended and the lights are all down. the crowd’s screams have just begun to die down and then that first bass note hits and the entire stadium goes ape.

      I disliked this, and i am not a bot( i know, that's just what a bot would say...or is it.....) anyhoo, the first part, he's just playing chords with loads of distortion through a decent amp, which is pointless cos the backing track is so loud you can't hear it anyway and when he does show a bit of class, again, it's drowned out by the backing track!

    I am absolutely in love with this cover! Whenever other people cover these types of song on guitar or piano, they cover the vocal part and add some fancy solo/chord changes. This wasn't done with anything fancy or over the top. Just some nice powerchords mostly and it still sounds great. Love the simplicity!
