CERTIFIED HOOD CLASSIC?? | THE WEEKND "TAKE MY BREATH" FIRST REACTION / REVIEW!!

[@parallaz_]

I just realized that Dawn is the sequel to After Hours, since the sun rises after night ends. Can't believe it took me this long.

[@harshatb8114]

Lmao

[@neelaymiglani175]

Lmao he literally said in an interview that if the after hours is the record of a night, then dawn is coming.

I have discovered The Weeknd in 2013. I feel like a proud father now.

Me too , the morning the first song i heard

[@afigodess]

I feel like a proud mother lol, (im only 8 years older though wtf)

[@chandhand6539]

Yeah I knew him during Ariana grande my everything ( love me harder ) collab, he released bops after bops later

[@gabe1913]

Those who found Abel during the Trilogy and Noise days 100% have a different relationship with his music. To see the growth we’ve witnessed from that potential we heard so long ago is definitely satisfying and I can’t wait to hear the full project. XOTWOD.

[@Anjilstorm1]

Facts! 💯

[@daddykapalot6464]

sucks that he never dropped the noise

[@architpanwar8943]

Abel can just release Noise and get all the awards anytime he wants tbh

[@hkproductions_]

Rolling Stone ❤️😭

[@nickjames6598]

Think that Trilogy is good. Just be ready for the next Trilogy.

[@LostJ]

The MJ vibes from this song was unreal, just that warm sounding off the wall type vibe, the vocals. This guy just does not miss

[@aryan.s.]

Abel said that off the wall helped him to find his falsetto so he has a special place for that album. And it seems to be a significant inspiration for the dawn :)

[@nvpgaming8467]

Take my breath had a lot of thriller vibes

[@Grt1n]

He’s in his MJ bag on this one! The comparison obviously always been there but this just feels so naturally MJ.

[@MiggysRoom]

4:02 BRO, I love the fact that you quoted Montreal.

[@MagnumDong1999]

The first few times the chorus is lead into by "and she says, take my breath away". However that last few times it's just "take my breath away" and the video switches to him being chocked and gasping for air. Meaning that now the chorus is about him not her. Sort of illustrating how he comes into this lifestyle viewing himself as like the alpha dog tricking all these girl but at the end of the day hes just as much of a victim to the lifestyle as they are.

[@coastercraziness]

This song a banger I’m so hyped for The Dawn

[@nicholasdebellis1411]

When does it come out?

[@RM-wp7df]

@@nicholasdebellis1411 well considering this is the first single, maybe this year, or the beginning of 2022

I too wanted MV of Faith bro, that would have been perfect closure for the album. 💙

[@utopian5587]

same :(

[@coastercraziness]

After Hours would’ve been a perfect finale, but Faith got done dirty too

[@yuhan4469]

It should've released when the promotions was still running cause faith is arguably the climax of the album, then another small build up on afterhours seals it as a strong last track (until i bleed out was more like an outro for me, which works really well with the theme of the album, it's a slow ending compared to some albums where they end it with a bang or fancy stuff)

[@kakarotto8515]

How long you want him in dark

[@coastercraziness]

@@yuhan4469 After Hours feels like the final episode, and UIBO feels like the end credits (not in a bad way, they’re two of my all time favorite songs)

[@ayushtiwari5276]

I didn't even hear the song yet, I was actually looking forward to listening it with you, while you break everything down since it helps to appreciate the songs even more.

Ok I have a very out there theory to make, but The Dawn is gonna be Abel finding love after the pain of After Hours

Either that, or finding himself and realizing that love and women aren’t the answer to everything.

It might be a reach, but I think he’s talking about the drug known as “nangs,” which is nitrous oxide which can be consumed by breathing it in from a balloon or as in the video showed, an oxygen tank. And the “Take my breath, and make it last forever” can be leaning towards how the drug only lasts for a short period of time, and it’s a feeling of euphoria of some sorts, and people who take it want it to last forever since they often take it at parties…idk, i feel like that’s what it means💀
