wub.gif Die For You was already my favourite album track on Starboy back in 2016 so seeing it finally smash is great as it is, and so I was very excited to hear an Ariana remix after how much I loved the Save Your Tears remix! I don't think her parts are quite as amazing as they were on SYT but definitely still a fan of this and love to see the chart success for it too!

Patiently waiting for the exact U.S. chart position but looks like she'll be credited:

Yay! cheer.gif

It's still growing on me too. It wouldn't have been my first choice for a 'Starboy' track to blow up years later (Rockin' would have been brilliant instead) but I am loving it now.

^ I seem to remember liking 'Rockin', 'False Alarm' and 'Party Monster' at the time outside of the really big hits, I should give the album a full listen at some point.

Speaking of big hits...

Edit: Ari and The Weeknd have both acknowledged the #1:

I liked this a little more than I expected - Ariana's addition definitely improves the song, gives it a bit of an extra dimension and it's always nice to hear her harmonies and whatnot. But still not a song I think I'll ever be desperate to go back to, it's just bumped it up from like a 5.5/10 song to a 6.5/10 kink.gif

(having said that I have had it stuck in my head a bit today so who knows, maybe it'll grow further x)

Just noticed that this has been added to the Radio 2 playlist.

I only started listening to Radio 2 last year (for PopMaster and Scott Mills) and didn't know how much of a R2 artist she was (have heard: 'Rain On Me', 'Santa Tell Me', 'Santa, Can't You Hear Me?' and 'One Last Time' since the inception of Scott's show in November, so 50% features) and it seems she gets quite solid support from looking through the archives, even '34+35' was playlisted, which didn't fit my stereotypical vision of a Radio 2 song at all laugh.gif well, it's cool for her to be in the position where she can currently straddle the likes of Radio 1, Radio 2, Capital and Kiss playlists.

I wonder if they'll end up performing as 'Save Your Tears' did get a live outing
