Even the singer’s sunniest tracks (“Can’t Feel My Face,” “Starboy”) feel anchored by darkness—the sense that pleasure is pain and beauty decays and you can’t have the night without the morning after. The brainchild of Toronto singer Abel Tesfaye, the project took off in 2011 with a string of mixtapes (later collected as 2012’s Trilogy) that forged cavernous, falsetto-driven R&B with narratives drenched in drugs, sex, and other regrettable decisions—a sound both sensuous and detached, featherlight and dead heavy. One of the earliest musicians to find his footing on the internet, Tesfaye originally offered his music through YouTube and free downloads, a move that felt radical then but is common now. Ethiopian by heritage (his parents immigrated to Canada in the late ’80s, just before he was born), Tesfaye—out from behind the mask of making art online—has since come to represent the changing face of Toronto, rooting himself not just in an international musical community but in a specific diasporic experience. Like the work of collaborator Lana Del Rey or early booster (and fellow Toronto native) Drake, Tesfaye’s music has become a symbol of hedonism pushed to bleak excess, with a series of albums—including 2015’s Grammy-winning Beauty Behind the Madness, 2016’s multiplatinum Starboy, and 2020’s dense and atmospheric After Hours—whose narrators can’t seem to say no even if they hate themselves for it later. And though his music has gotten a little brighter over time, the prevailing mood remains heavy, even unsettling—the ride you want more of even when you’ve had too much. Speaking to Apple Music about the persona behind his songs, Tesfaye said, “I’m a chill person. That guy is who I am, but it is who I am to myself and in my writing. Sometimes you take him and then you create more, and then it becomes this beast. You add more to him, and then it’s uncontrollable—its own character. It’s like Scarface, the villain: It’s horrible, but you can’t stop looking at it.” - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2012 37 Crew Love (Drake feat.

May 28, 20214 yr The Weeknd and Ariana's performance of 'Save Your Tears' last night was stunning :wub:
May 28, 20214 yr Save Your Tears remains such a bop <3 Love how this has now spent a month top 10 after we all thought #11 was the final peak!
May 28, 20214 yr Save Your Tears is nice but I am kinda over it. A lot of the songs that dropped today I prefer to the ones that have stayed higher :lol:
May 28, 20214 yr Random fact - this is The Weeknd's 69th week in the Top 10, of which only two have been at #6 (one each for Can't Feel My Face and The Hills)
May 28, 20214 yr Good to see Galantis getting another top 10 hit after so long! Save Your Tears! :wub: :wub: Although I notice they're playing the original again today (which is still amazing ofc), the performance with Ariana last night was great though!
May 28, 20214 yr What's with Radio 1 not playing remix versions of chart songs today? First, Starstruck, then, WITHOUT YOU, now Save You Tears.

I’m 18 years old and writing songs is my favorite thing to do in the world. I’ve been doing it for as long as I can remember and I fall more in love with it every day. The first song I ever got published was called “All I Want.” I wrote it for a show I act in and it was a super cool experience that opened up a lot of doors for me. On the last day before Covid lockdown, I met the team at Interscope/Geffen records and a producer named Dan Nigro for the first time. It turned out to be a very momentous day for so many reasons. I spent most of quarantine writing songs in my living room and producing them in a garage, including ‘drivers license’. It was always a really special song to me but I never expected the response it got. It absolutely blew my mind and I still to this day refuse to believe it all actually happened. The day I am writing this is actually the day that I turn in my debut album! I’m sooo excited for you to hear it and I feel so grateful that I get to make music for my job. - Spotify Top 100 Chart History 2020 32 All I Want -OST- 2021 01 drivers license -1- 2021 11 deja vu -2- 2021 02 good 4 u -3- 2021 07 traitor -AT- 1 x #1 | 2 x Top 5 | 3 x Top 10 | 4 x Top 20 | 5 x Top 40 | 5 x Top 100 Social Media Olivia Rodrigo http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/uploads/group_images/of_269.png
May 28, 20214 yr What's with Radio 1 not playing remix versions of chart songs today? First, Starstruck, then, WITHOUT YOU, now Save You Tears. It’s because all the originals are better
May 28, 20214 yr traitor is one of the album highlights for me :wub: though it's such a good debut all round!
May 28, 20214 yr It’s because all the originals are better Certainly not in the case of that Years & Years track anyway.
May 28, 20214 yr Traitor :wub: :wub: :wub: So glad Olivia's now has another top 10 hit from just an album track!! :cheer: Such a beautiful song :heart: I wonder if this will manage another week now that some big spotify playlists have added it today & its streams are v. similar to drivers license! I do wish brutal managed to chart for one week tho! What a song <3
