BRB SCREAMING a #1 in my personal chart with Ari coming to jump on too..!


Posted by: LewisGT 19th April 2021, 07:33 PM

This is about a year too late for me. I was loving Save Your Tears when the album was released but I'm pretty over it now. I'm sure she's going to sound heavenly on it though!

Posted by: Juliannnial 20th April 2021, 08:38 AM

I still like this track a lot so I'm excited to see what it sounds like!

Posted by: k👠th 20th April 2021, 09:00 AM

Ugh there goes Levitating's chances of getting a new peak on the Hot 100 sad.gif

Posted by: George.keh 20th April 2021, 09:18 AM

I’ve never grown tired of this song so i’m super excited about this!

Same wub.gif I did appreciate it when the album came out but it had a massive second wind for me earlier this year and I've never tired of it.

I think The Weeknd and Ariana both currently have 5 Billboard Hot 100 #1s each:

Can't Feel My Face
The Hills
Starboy
Heartless
Blinding Lights

thank u, next
7 rings
Stuck With U
Rain On Me
positions

...so it would be cool if they could snatch a sixth *.*

'Heartless' really feels like such an odd #1 amongst all those!

True! I never would have guessed it was a #1 if you asked me.

Posted by: dannjohn 20th April 2021, 12:51 PM

a third collab for them...

Posted by: coi 20th April 2021, 01:32 PM

Loved the previous two collabs between them and I love Save Your Tears so I'm really looking forward to hearing this!

Posted by: Sour Candy 20th April 2021, 02:58 PM

This is just to get the US #1 hit out of the song, which is understandable of course.

Posted by: Jade 20th April 2021, 03:35 PM

Not long to go cheer.gif



three years ago 'no tears'

this week 'save your tears' @theweeknd

Posted by: coi 20th April 2021, 03:40 PM

Glad there isn't much of a wait, pity that this may end up being released on its first week on ACR in the UK though!

Posted by: Jay❄ 20th April 2021, 03:43 PM

cheeseblock.png Excited to hear this, it's a great song and I'm sure Ariana will only improve it *.*


I assume this won't count for Ariana's chart discography in the UK, it'll just carry on being credited solely to The Weeknd, is that right? Also is this being released too late to make it avoid ACR here? thinking.gif (Edit: Just saw that coi raised this point already!)

Aww! I love the "3 years ago 'no tears', this week 'Save Your Tears'" wub.gif

Hyyyyyyype heart.gif

Posted by: Jade 23rd April 2021, 06:43 AM



Wow her voice fits this like a glove wub.gif lower register and gorgeous adlibs! Ari and The Weeknd sound so good together too. Happy that she’s so prominent on it and I didn’t realise we’d be getting an actual animated video too.

Posted by: Ho-Lee Smokes 23rd April 2021, 08:35 AM

She ruins it sad.gif

It’s listenable but I defo could have done without it

Posted by: k👠th 23rd April 2021, 08:47 AM

Scooter Brownie did that!

Good job you still have the original to go back to then, eh? 😁

Posted by: Juliannnial 23rd April 2021, 09:02 AM

Not what I was expecting at all, but I do LOVE her lower register. I like it, but It's going to take a few listens for me to grow to love it.

Posted by: Liаm 23rd April 2021, 09:04 AM

She sounds brilliant, she's elevated an already excellent song!

Posted by: Tafty 23rd April 2021, 09:36 AM

This is fantastic. One of the better "rent a star" remixes we've heard in a long time!

Her voice wub.gif

Posted by: Jade 23rd April 2021, 10:00 AM

Enters the top 10 on iTunes! Just downloaded it myself. *.*

I'm really happy with how her parts flow amongst The Weeknd's original contributions. The two of them create this convincing dark world together for a few minutes. The cool video animation helps with that too - good to see that already passing 2 million views.

In summary:

Edit: 46,000th post cheer.gif

Not loving this at all if i’m honest- more pointless than the Good as Hell feature

Posted by: dannjohn 23rd April 2021, 01:21 PM

as ive never heard the original (and i was once a fan of his from the beginning)... she sounds great and is a great addition

Posted by: coi 23rd April 2021, 02:08 PM

Loving this as expected! Her parts fit in so well with the original, Ariana and The Weeknd sounding great together for the third time! wub.gif

@JosephStyles we need this plz and thank you xx :aricheeseblock:

Posted by: Slick 24th April 2021, 01:39 PM

I knew her voice would sound sublime on this. It was already one of The Weeknd's best songs; Ariana takes it to another level.

Posted by: Jade 24th April 2021, 05:07 PM

Remix is #12 on U.K. Spotify!

I was walking home from the pub just now, put this on, then ended up spamming it the entire journey laugh.gif wub.gif

Posted by: Jade 25th April 2021, 02:04 PM



cheer.gif

I love the original ‘bad guy’ but that remix was... a choice, so I’m glad they dethroned that kink.gif

Posted by: Jade 26th April 2021, 10:27 AM



*.* really hope Ariana will be credited.

Posted by: Liam.k. 1st May 2021, 05:09 AM

Only just got round to listening to this; I thought Ariana would be a perfect feature on this and she doesn’t disappoint! Echoing the love for her adlibs and lower register.

Posted by: Tafty 1st May 2021, 06:10 AM

Been playing NOW 108 at work and I think this remix has kinda overtaken the original for me lmao �� I just wanted yo hear the added ad-libs and Ari parts in it laugh.gif

Posted by: Jade 3rd May 2021, 06:01 PM

#1 in the U.S. and Ariana is credited - fantastic news! cheer.gif













cheeseblock.png unstoppable! The remix is now my go-to version as well Jonjo heart.gif

Posted by: coi 3rd May 2021, 07:03 PM

Excellent that it worked and gave both artists a sixth US #1! cheer.gif

Posted by: Jade 3rd May 2021, 07:50 PM

Yeah it’s extra cool that they get to experience that same milestone together *.*

Ari has posted about it on Twitter now:



clap.gif

Posted by: Jade 7th May 2021, 04:24 PM

The original now has a U.K. top 10 peak (#8!) thanks to the Ariana remix heart.gif

Currently making dinner and put on the radio to see where it had climbed to this week - glad they played the remix this week after not doing so last week wub.gif sounding great as always!

Posted by: coi 7th May 2021, 09:20 PM

cheer.gif So pleased that Ari's remix has finally given Save Your Tears that thoroughly deserved top ten peak! wub.gif

Posted by: Jade 10th May 2021, 07:20 PM





clap.gif

Posted by: Jade 11th May 2021, 03:59 PM

Finally some kind of performance from her again !!

Still not for the ‘positions’ era but I’ll take it laugh.gif wub.gif


Posted by: Jade 13th May 2021, 05:40 PM

^ two weeks today until that performance! If they want to include 'Love Me Harder' too then I wouldn't be mad... kink.gif

Posted by: Juliannnial 13th May 2021, 08:01 PM

Well that's something I suppose. I'm sure she will make up for lost time.

Posted by: Jade 25th May 2021, 08:23 PM



Intrigued! Excited for Thursday for both this and pay day kink.gif

Posted by: Jade 27th May 2021, 12:32 PM



I think this is 1am U.K. time 🤔 looking forward to waking up to it tomorrow!

Posted by: Jade 28th May 2021, 06:24 AM



So good to finally see her performing again! They both sounded great heart.gif

Posted by: Tafty 28th May 2021, 08:08 AM

I loved the simplicity of it and how it wasn't an all out, fully produced, staged and huge performance etc..

They have fantastic chemistry and look adorable together. THAT whistle note *.* QUEEN.

So refreshing getting a performance like this from 2 of the industries best performers today.

Posted by: Jade 28th May 2021, 02:56 PM

Yeah I liked the simplicity of the performance too, it really worked <3

the remix has now shot back up to #4 on iTunes off the back of it!

Posted by: coi 28th May 2021, 02:59 PM

Love that performance!! wub.gif

Posted by: Jαsє 28th May 2021, 07:48 PM

Gorgeous performance and they both sounded brilliant. THAT NOTE.. cheeseblock.png

Posted by: Jade 28th May 2021, 07:52 PM

heart.gif

now rebounded back up to #1 on iTunes ohmy.gif glad the performance has gone down so well!

Posted by: Dangerous Julian 28th May 2021, 10:09 PM

THAT WAS STUNNING!! All of those riffs and THE WHISTLE NOOOOTEEEE!!!

cheeseblock.png

Great to see it @ #1 on iTunes!!

She should have stayed and done another track though.

Posted by: Jade 29th May 2021, 12:46 AM

Official HD upload now:



Even better *.*

Posted by: Blond 2.0 30th May 2021, 05:00 PM

Perfection

Posted by: Jade 30th May 2021, 05:22 PM

The effect of that performance has also spread to streaming *.* the magic of The Weeknd and Ariana heart.gif


Posted by: Jade 11th June 2021, 04:40 PM

‘Save Your Tears’ is up to a new peak of #2 today ohmy.gif

If the OCC credited Ariana in the U.K. then it’d be another amazing song in her chart history to peak at #2 laugh.gif

Posted by: Tafty³³³ 23rd June 2021, 11:18 AM

Looking like this version will be the one that is on Now 109! wub.gif



At least it'll be on CD somewhere!

Posted by: Jade 10th August 2021, 01:23 PM

^ I got that Now album for my birthday last week, it's this vs. 'I WANNA BE YOUR SLAVE' for my favourite song on it <3



Still riding high both here and in the U.S. clap.gif (although it looks like ACR is finally going to hit in the U.K. again soon)

Posted by: Jade 2nd October 2021, 11:03 AM



That's a shame as it's a brilliant song but I don't blame The Weeknd after how last year panned out tbh

Posted by: Jade 14th October 2021, 07:04 PM



I still play these so yay kink.gif

('Happier Than Ever' seems like an interesting choice laugh.gif)

Posted by: Jade 30th November 2021, 08:29 PM



The longevity of this has been insane *.*

Posted by: Jade 2nd December 2021, 02:35 PM

Finishes at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 Year-End list for 2021 only behind 'Levitating', the U.S. had taste this year!

Posted by: Jade 7th December 2021, 08:57 PM



clap.gif I'd definitely rank it high if I was putting together my own EOY, probably top 5!

Posted by: Jade 11th January 2022, 02:37 PM



Back in after the Christmas rush!



Wow time is flying...!

Posted by: Jade 15th February 2022, 08:54 PM

I’m continuing my Ariana quest. Love this song! This would have made my top 10 in the rate. Oops. She’s sounds so good with The Weekend.

Edit: Her ad libs / harmonising (whatever you call the noises she makes in the background) are so out of this world amazing - she sounds divine !


Just reading back through this thread. Not sure how I missed this song in 2021 biggrin.gif

wub.gif yeah I already loved the original but her added touches took it to a new dimension!

Very stable on the Billboard Hot 100:


Posted by: Jade 28th February 2022, 07:25 PM



wub.gif happy that this was so successful for the both of them (and am now ready for 'Less Than Zero' from his latest album to do a 'Save Your Tears' too x)

Posted by: Jade 1st March 2022, 09:14 PM

An incredible round 60 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 now cheer.gif

03. Bang Bang {31 weeks}
04. positions {29 weeks}

Posted by: Jade 8th March 2022, 06:28 PM



this week it has tied the record for remix with most weeks in the top 20 according to the replies!

Posted by: Jade 15th March 2022, 09:14 AM

The Weeknd is releasing a music video for 'Out Of Time' meanwhile this is still climbing laugh.gif


Posted by: Jade 22nd March 2022, 06:08 PM

The Billboard chart seems even slower than usual right now (see: 'STAY' returning to #2) but yay for Ari still being on the chart in some capacity during a quiet patch heart.gif


Posted by: London 23rd March 2022, 12:23 AM

That’s crazy it is still so high up after all this time!

I know right! The U.S. chart is crazily slow at the moment, non-mover this week:


Posted by: Jade 31st March 2022, 07:32 PM



Great to see her studio talents getting recognised more!

Posted by: Jade 5th April 2022, 05:12 PM



Still going absolutely nowhere laugh.gif

Posted by: Jade 8th April 2022, 02:51 PM



Quite a lot so hopefully they can win at least one 🤞

Posted by: Jade 12th May 2022, 09:33 PM

'Save Your Tears' has finally been knocked out of the Billboard Hot 100 ohmy.gif I realised that I had it at #1 in my personal chart this time last year so it really did hang around laugh.gif



incredible clap.gif clap.gif

Posted by: Jade 27th May 2022, 05:30 PM



Honestly one of my favourites of hers already!
