Posted by: lewistgreen 7th January 2019, 10:22 PM

Columbia Records have confirmed that a joint collab between The Weeknd and Gesaffelstein is to be released. The Weeknd has been teasing it on his social media today.

Hopefully this will be better than their two collabs off the last EP because those were poor.

The previous collaborations between the two were more tame than I hoped for but I'll remain cautiously optimistic, as Gesaffelstein's newie 'Reset' is fabulous

i LOVED the last two collabs off their EP.



teaser FYI.

Oooh seems like a Gesaffelstein lead this time which brings me hope that his sound may be more prominent here wub.gif hyped regardless tbh

The track, which is called "Lost In The Fire" (I assume Columbia made a mistake with the hashtag in https://twitter.com/ColumbiaUK/status/1082286511364755456), has been serviced to US radio. There are two versions (clean and ultra clean) of the song and the length of both is 3:22 min. Also, it's labeled as 'Gesaffelstein x The Weeknd'.

So lifeless and monotonous. Ugh.

I don't hear a lot of Gesaffelstein too.

It's like Starboy part 3 (with "Pray For Me" being part 2).

It probably should've been a 'The Weeknd' produced by Gefalafelstein credit considering how the song sounds. Very sexual so idk how this will do with radio play and gaining popularity but it's a decent track - not really standing out compared to some of this week's other releases.

Just boring to be honest. Lyrically quite vacant but the production is the real let down, it could be anything.

Posted by: Queen Rosemary 12th January 2019, 12:12 PM

Oh I really quite like this on first listen!

Posted by: Bjork 12th January 2019, 12:29 PM

it's The Weekend on autopilot
hope he can evolve his sound a bit and do better stuff

Posted by: Jade 15th January 2019, 10:56 PM

Sonically this is lush (very 'Starboy' as pointed out) but I feel like trash for enjoying it because the lyrics are such tosh lol. I wish they could've been... anything else as they're preventing this from being a proper fave

Posted by: John-James 16th January 2019, 08:24 PM

So much better than anything on that EP. Really love this

Tbh this. I would have taken a featured rapper for the second verse than that. Couldn’t they just hit someone up for a remix, or would that end up being more like Pray For Me?

Questionable lyrics unfortunately push me more towards The Weeknd NOT being self-aware which is how I interpreted a lot of his past lyrics.

Shame as it's a lush production. I'll still play it prob mind it's not that annoying. Chorus is nice. Not as cringey as Zayn talking about our sex having meaning ohmy.gif
