32 SONGS BY THE WEEKND. ONE SONG WILL RISE. WHO WINS??

[@NiteGamerBTW]

I'm not gonna lie. My tier list would look every day different. There is always another The Weeknd song that catch me. Faith is perfection & my number one for a while now.

[@jeannettereyrel808]

Same here my top always change except my number 1 which is I was never there this track is just mind-blowing

[@TheThirdErnest]

shit changes constantly lol it was rough picking only 32 songs lol

[@fan1000]

You gotta do more tournaments like this cause I LOVED THIS VIDEO!

[@ifightwitsticksyo]

Do TOM MACDONALD bruh! Lol! An Eminem one would be crazy.

[@TheThirdErnest]

got kanye coming up and eminem show next week!!

[@hosamhamdi819]

Agree

[@salukijean2]

This was SO hard to do live. Reliving it here now, I can see why. What a good idea Ernest! It was a happy birthday for us with Abel. XOTWOD

[@andreybudzik]

My top 4 are After Hours, house of balloons, wicked games, and Odd Look. Strange list but I love The Weeknd and all his music, new and old

[@TheThirdErnest]

oddlook is super good but too much of a deep cut for the list i made

[@antomervin]

DD was one of the most daring acts, a new artist can make at the time. It was borderline, career suicide. That's why Abel put as an acronym which probably the best opening track was a cover from the greatest artist of all time.

[@barry4649]

I haven’t a clue what you’re talking about but yes

[@antomervin]

@@barry4649Imagine placing 'Dirty Diana' as an opening song of the album. Ballsy attempt by the Weeknd and I like it.

[@barry4649]

@@antomervin I didn’t realise that was called DD on the album

[@raghudurina2354]

I love d.d but the original is better.

[@barry4649]

1. Faith 2. House of Balloons/ Glass Table Girls 3. After Hours 4. Tears In the Rain 5. Wicked Games

[@kingsavage3804]

This was hella fun , I was screaming at the screen when it got hard man, you gotta do more of these 🔥🔥🔥

[@milamila1123]

The song that moves me the most out of his whole catalogue is Adaptation off of Kiss Land. That shit takes my very soul and twists it.

[@dking1235]

That and tears in the rain hit on another level

[@sylverscreamqueen]

Adaptation is one that gets me in the heart and soul every time. It is a rare treasure.

[@TheThirdErnest]

same...shit hits in the roughest way possible lol

[@jaicciiiroooo]

Faith is the best the weeknd song ever. Especially that vevo live!!! Oh my god

[@TheThirdErnest]

the vevo is something else!!!

[@vishwajeetwaghmare4756]

My TOP 5 from him are 1) FAITH (GREATEST) 2) After Hours (Addictive) 3) Price on my Head 4) Wasted Times 5) Earned It New but one of the most beautiful song is Out of Time 💙 it'll be soon top 3 for me

[@jefferymartinez10]

Ernest you’re true xo! I appreciate you so much bro! Always bringing the best Weeknd content! Xotwod❤️

[@antomervin]

Faith, Tears in the rain, twenty eight, HOB/GTG, Out of time are my top five of The Weeknd songs.

[@antomervin]

Missed many good songs. Damn

[@Rahul-px3my]

Tears in the rain soo underrated

[@prettierjesus3119]

Out of Time’s definitely an outlier here. The Jim outro is the only part of the song that I really like, because it introduces Here We Go... Again, one of my favorites off of Dawn FM.

[@jcdl12]

Man this was so entertaining to watch, I'm sad I wasn't there live. Keep up the good vibes and ideas!

[@Angela_Fleming]

This video was great! Your review of After Hours is what originally brought me to your channel. Big The Weeknd Fan! XOTWOD ✌🏻

[@rolloman667]

For the Weeknd you need a 128 song bracket. He is that good.

[@hanzalaatc2855]

Bro I missed the stream so thank you so much for uploading it on yt. One of the best vids on you channel G.

[@nabilk9853]

This content and community fire made my day ❤

[@RondaleDinkerdoodle]

LOVE THIS concept of a video, coming from a huge weeknd fan since 2013. Personally my songs would look a lot different and that’s the beauty of it. LIKE THIS if Ernest should do one for Drake as well 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@TheThirdErnest]

got drake, em, lupe fiasco, and kanye coming up!!

[@sleep6837]

As a long term fan, how do you feel about faith? Personally, I think people in the chat have it WAY overhyped, I think it's one of his best songs in years with After Hours, but it just doesn't hold up to cuts like XO/The Host, Wicked Games, Coming Down, etc...

[@dopeamine3897]

1. Starboy 2. Party monster 3. Often 4. Six feet under 5.Heartless 6.lost in the fire Just how my weeknd's playlist seems to start. But at present is there someone else? is on repeat it's been a week.

[@jhh28]

Great video. A lot of fun watching that. Can’t wait to make the drive up to Dallas from SA for the concert! Linkin Park bracket would be awesome too!!

[@justjasontm]

How do you not have "Reminder" on this list? That's it my top 10 Weeknd songs for sure .

[@anubhav_lal]

After Hours, always hits.

[@wendyraymond1751]

Loved this amazing video thanku so much love and God bless always x

[@blanesimmons5809]

Abel is the goat man. His range is insane and the message in every song gives me chills. XOTWOD

[@blanesimmons5809]

Also I’m glad there’s a KZbinr that loves The Weeknd as much as me😂 huge fan man I love how you explain the songs so well

[@XxeffinbackStabrxX]

Does nobody like Blinding Lights anymore? That’d be in my top 5. And I know it’s not a strictly a The Weeknd song. But god damn Moth To A Flame is so good as well.

[@TheThirdErnest]

Singles not on an album didn’t get Included and blinding lights is amazing. Just personally not as good as the others for me

[@XxeffinbackStabrxX]

@@TheThirdErnest Ah, I see! Thanks Ernest. Appreciate the reply.

[@Angela_Fleming]

Love Moth To A Flame!

[@dopeamine3897]

Moth is a fckin gr8 song man

[@prettierjesus3119]

Blinding Lights is probably still a top 10 song for me. I hate that so many people seem inclined to hate it just because it’s his most popular song. It should be a blessing that one of his most popular songs is one of his best.

[@laurenfabery]

ayyye! my comment got a zoom in on initiation lol this stream was so fun to celebrate abel on his birthday and all that he's gifted us through the years

[@isaacmunoz9690]

All the song are amazing X’O for life bro fr and good ass video to 💯%

[@gregorio853]

The party and the After party is my all time favourite.

[@exodia3625]

Same

[@lizzinaswarts405]

We needed this so bad!! Thanks 3E! My #01 is still starboy(the song) i dont even know why

[@sleep6837]

My Top 10: 1 and 2 are interchangable- 1. XO/ The Host 2. House of Balloons/Glass Table Girls 3. Wicked Games 4. Tears in the Rain 5. After Hours (title track) 6. Coming Down 7. The Zone 8. Pretty 9. Kiss Land (title track) 10. King of the Fall Honorable MENTIONS: The Hills, Faith, High For This, Birds pt. 2, Lonely Star, Initiation, Love In The Sky, Same Old Song, Rolling Stone, Alone Again, Until I Bleed Out I might have forgot some plus the more I think about this the more I wanna change it so I'm leavin it

[@sakshamtyagi9652]

Man After Hours got an unfair matchup. It would've cleaned any other track easily. Probably by favorite song of all time.

[@kinyuapeter278]

Little fact: The first lines of professional: It's ideal, oh You need someone to tell you how to feel And you think your happiness is real There's so much more the world has to reveal But you choose to be concealed So you're somebody now But what's a somebody in a nobody town I don't think you even know it So you're somebody now But what's a somebody in a nobody town You made enough to quit a couple years ago But it consumes you It's everywhere you go And just the thought alone got you trippin' Got you losin' your mind And I don't blame you It's everything you know But I, own this time, this ain't new Now, I decide when we're through are actually the weeknd singing to Abel

[@cyanprince00]

Aw mann here it is: 1. After Hours 2. HOB/Glass table girls 3. Faith 4. Sacrifice 5. I Feel It Coming But on a different day.. would have Alone Again, Adaptation, Die for you or Tears in the Rain inserted in that list. Lol. But- ahh..maybe How do I make you love me, too?!

[@aphelelemahaye5024]

Wicked games he killed it. Sorry all of his songs he killed it

[@cobeycollinsmx9218]

I am so f*cking mad Wicked Games didn’t make it on the podium.. I’m just gonna skip through the whole f*ckin video now.. 😂

[@tusharagarwal6155]

One weeknd track, I still can't get out of my head and is not talked about much is Hurt You. For me thats the best track on My Dear Melancholy.

[@Bashxoo]

House of ballons charting rn on billboard 200 for the first time, 11 years after it realest LETS FUCKING GO (its at 113 btw)

[@JonSmith-oy4bi]

I wanted to see Faith and After Hours, my 2 favorite songs as of now

[@KissLandXO277]

SAME

[@heykay5610]

I listened to the first 4 or so albums on repeat some years ago. My favs are still Lonely Star, Starboy, High for This, The Birds Part II. He has so many good ones, but I mostly can't separate them from each other, i just listen to a playlist and get the vibes.

[@prodbyed4549]

I recently re-listened to Kissland and "belong to the world" smh, that shit is a masterpiece. Should of been on there.

[@HexelNut]

Watched this live!!!!

[@tonin5047]

My favorite artist. So many great songs

[@dking1235]

1. Professional 2. Twenty Eight 3. Tears in the rain 4. Next 5. Adaptation And "Kiss land" is easily topping the "best albums from the weeknd" list for me.

u got taste bro xotwod

[@Monty_XO]

Good Test but I like MDM - After Hours And Now The Dawn FM 📀 it's my personal choice 🤗

[@jonasjakobsson9006]

I dont get twenty eight. Professional is for sure one of his best. Everything about that track is 10/10.

[@xotwod967]

@@jonasjakobsson9006 u need to re listen to twenty eight its perfect

I’m going to do this for Travis, you have all the credit for this incredible idea, especially during March madness season. Alone Again would’ve won in my book but FAITH is like that ‼️💯

My top 1. I was never there 2. Alone again 3. Nothing compares / Until I bleed out (can't. choose either) 4. The birds pt 1 and 2 (can't choose) 5. Adaptation (for his ft : skeletons)

[@raghudurina2354]

Tears in the rain is a slapper and it being based on blade runner makes it even better. I love the cyberpunk vibes of kissland and tears in the rain referencing the best cyberpunk movie of all time makes me appreciate the song even more.

[@sidxovarma]

Haha i’m so obsessed with him i did his entire discography which leaves his features. Matchups started with 110 or something like that and it took me a day. I was literally flying in heaven playing that bracket the entire time. My final two were adaptation and faith. And adaptation won

[@lalithr9272]

No matter what song you liked before watching this till the end, Ernest would convince you w a forehead kiss and say #1 "faith"

Missed the livestream but man, this video brought all the vibes. If you’re XO, you may not agree but you have nothing but respect for the choices bc Abel has yet to miss.

How is Montreal not on here

I can't put these in order so these r all number #1 for me. FAITH, FINAL LULLABY, AFTER HOURS, QLONE AGAIN, UNTIL I BLEED OUT

I was in this stream btw until D.D. cause was watching a movie with my brother and he's also a major major fan of the weeknd

[@daniellim6233]

Bruh I rly love Less than Zero, I wonder how would it compare to these songs 😢🔥

[@prettierjesus3119]

Faith used to be my favorite song by him for a while. Then, I started liking False Alarm (yes, the song that everyone in the fandom hates) and Until I Bleed Out after seeing how impressive their music videos both were. But, after letting Kiss Land marinate on me, although After Hours is my favorite album by him overall, Belong To The World is easily now my favorite. I just felt some weird connection to it that I didn’t feel from any of his other songs, even though it’s about him falling in love with a stripper he knows doesn’t deserve him, or any other man, for that matter. The music video also seems really well done, even with how early on he made it in his career.

[@khnimusic]

I’ve been listening to Abel since the earliest days, his first works were beautiful, but I think nostalgia and the idea of the songs being “OG” make them sound better, as a musician, it seems that way

[@fffaaaiiisssaaalll1302]

My top 5: After Hours The party and the after party House of balloons/glass table girls Escape from LA Alone again

[@rishibhatia425]

update : best songs for me right now is try me hurt you escape from la i was never there repeat after me
