[@paulasimoes4470]

this album is insane. it can be a little strange at first listen but after that you just start to realize how big it actually is. i loved it as usual. he is sick and im just a huge fan

[@MichaelBeveraggi]

The after first listen, big feeling is such a real thing, Paula

[@WedOliveira]

Estranhei d+ na primeira vez que escutei, agora já acho melhor que o After Hours. O álbum cresce muito quando você vai digerindo ele. Sensacional.

[@TGangGaming]

It's okay. Not his best

[@olaaa3103]

@@TGangGaming Tbh for me its the best his ever done

[@corvo9406]

If this doesn’t get album of the year. I fear for our future!

[@agro9883]

Just realized that the last track and first track both have the birds chirping at the end and start respectively. I wonder if this is him stuck in that purgatory state until he can let go of those regrets and move on. Until then the cycle (album) just repeats itself over and over until he does.

[@user-pu2zq3kp5w]

wait oh my god

[@mosescuh3644]

Similar to his past projects

[@simoventu4939]

Oh Jesus how good is he

[@misskatlee]

Yes because even the last song, less than zero he still regretting so he has to start over again and again and at this point he’s old . It’s sad honestly. The gasoline video makes so much sense now

[@aaronrinker24]

here’s what Abel said about the album in case you haven’t seen…..”picture the album being like the listener is dead. And they're stuck in this purgatory state, which I always imagined would be like being stuck in traffic waiting to reach the light at the end of the tunnel. And while you're stuck in traffic, they got a radio station playing in the car, with a radio host guiding you to the light and helping you transition to the other side. So it could feel celebratory, could feel bleak, however, you want to make it feel, but that's what 'The Dawn' is for me."

[@deprivedfashionista8092]

Damn, that's a cool concept!

[@wc9819]

Where did he say that That’s sick

[@cooperknight2323]

@@wc9819 It was during a GQ Interview

[@CrownedYeti]

It's crazy bc after listening through the entire album, that was exactly the idea I got - like I was stuck in some sort of purgatory, feeling and reflecting. Abel is such a legend.

[@BlostinTv]

DUDE I reacted

[@soufianei309]

im sooo glad that abel chose the extended take my breath version. the normal version is sick but this one is even better

[@-ameera-9103]

Yess!!!

[@itsmeoteppp3064]

Less than zero is so fucking goooddddd

[@marzz4698]

I bet money on Less than Zero being a radio hit…wish me luck😂

[@Mugshotsoulja]

@@marzz4698 might be another #1

[@chrisvalencia9640]

Bit of a Theory, abel dies during the last song of after hours “until I bleed out” and this is a direct continuation of that album and guiding him to the after life. But, he’s stuck in purgatory bc of his regret in past relationships with women prior and his fate is yet to be decided.l according to the last track on dawn fm. This theory is kinda all over the place but that’s how I see it and it’s brilliant story telling.

[@odysseus2k1]

I wonder how his afterlife album gonna sound like. Is he sticking with this 70s 80s genre, or will it be another genre?

[@thairanc]

@@odysseus2k1 I think he might stay in that era. However, he might dabble into dream pop or chamber pop. Less than Zero sounded more like dream pop and was completely different from the rest of the album.

[@eren69marley]

38:15 nobody gonna talk about how smooth best friends transitoned to is there someone else I was listening the whole album in order and i didn't knew the new song started playing it was that smooth😂

[@tiaoooo]

that transition is insane

[@jirdalys]

let's also add the transition of 'is there someone else?' to 'starry eyes' is similar to what he did with 'adaptation' to 'love in the sky' on kissland. **chef kiss**

[@eren69marley]

Out of Time has Michael Jackson vibes all over it! Is There Someone Else has the best beat!

Fun fact the beat is a sample from Midnight Pretenders by Tomoko Aran. City pop is great. :)

[@MichaelBeveraggi]

The BLEED & LOOP & mood shift is EVERYTHING

[@daniellemontoya4043]

Ahhhh

[@reelsallday953]

Never felt more seen by an album. If you've ever been in a dying toxic relationship this is literally the feeling. The euphoria of the ride up followed by the crash and burn, the regret, the pleading for a second chance, and the ultimate realization that you have to let go to heal and be a better person (get into heaven)

[@OlaCh93]

Phantom Regret is a piece of poetry that will stay with me (us) for the rest of my life. I felt almost like I'm at a gates of heaven - I'm almost there, I see it, I'm transcending, it's getting so close - THEN BOOM - album restarts again with birds chirping. No heaven. Time to get through the experience again.

[@crazysocks827]

This album was stellar! Less Than Zero makes me teary eyed every time!

Aside from your reaction to the album, I loved your awareness about Able’s cynicism. The way you described it in his life made me think so much about how cynical I am towards relationships within my life. I’m so high but it’s something interesting I picked up

[@brandusz]

W comment. W for being high. This album is a masterpiece in its own right. Beautiful piece of art.

[@wc9819]

[@sylverscreamqueen]

First let me say than you for this reaction /review and for being someone who did more than impulse surface listen to this project. You went into the deep end and you have to with this one because it's not as easy listening full of instant hooks and bangers and bops This project is heavy it's philosophical and full of contrasts and the casual listener might easily dismiss it I enjoyed you insight and like you for me this is more than do I like the sounds on this It's deeper level connection It made me cry more than once . It wasn't what I expected but it is everything and it's nearly impossible to rank or rate it as just music cause it's more This is art By the way my top 3 are less than zero, starry eyes and out of time But that may change as I continue to absorb and process this master work

[@siddharthnandi8567]

this album hits so different when you're high

I cry ever time I listen to this album. It’s absolute perfection. I love all of Abel’s albums…, especially After Hours, but THIS!!! This is just beyond anything I’ve ever felt in my entire life. Has me rethinking everything in my entire life. It’s just too much to handle alone. Thank you Abel for making me feel less alone.

[@robertstripling87]

I was disappointed at first listen, but man this album is great. Awesome review as well man. You definitely need to listen to those three albums you said you haven't yet.

[@daniellemontoya4043]

LOVED your reaction and review! Love how you were willing to share your thoughts and be vulnerable with us! Always got a fan and a friend in XO. 💛

[@ninak.9323]

it’s so interesting to see how u interpret his lyrics even if I have a different interpretation I completely understand yours. it makes my fall in love with his songs even more cause that’s what good music is to me. many different opinions and everybody feels/sees something else in it. example: in how do i make u love me. i interpret the line „forget ‘bout what ur daddy said I‘ll teach u how to shine“ in such a feminist way, how man and fathers tell us to rather stay quiet so u don’t attract „bad“ man and don’t get hurt. even if they just wanna protect us they don’t tell their sons so and able reversed the situation and steps back to make us shine/heard while feeling save. however ur point of view is also so amazing and it mad me really think about. so thank u.

[@NAEDlele]

This album is truly great. Is basically a tribute to Michael Jackson.

[@ImJustSage]

phantom regret is probably my most favorite thing i’ve heard ever

[@luciiditytv]

probably the best reaction i've seen with Dawn FM, you did a phenomenal job Michael!

[@aechaconne]

You should react to twice (a Kpop girl group) album called “formula of love: O+T=

Thank you for this beautiful reaction and for really appreciating Abel and his art and music. This album is a masterpiece 🖤

[@Vedant2348]

Absolute classic and probably better than after hours for me.Waiting for reactions of some of his other albums

[@wc9819]

I feel like the weekend will make 1 more album after this to tie his after hours trilogy up also to show his development/growth that us fans have seen throughout his artistic journey. After hours…Dawn… and then his third album. It would be a good way to somewhat finish his career or take a break as i feel like year after year he would be getting tired of making the same love album. He might want to expand into more art or collaboration stuff like whah he did with the echos of silence music video. I would love for him to keep making music, but he’s at his peak. I think he might want a break :)

[@LGsplash]

this is my favorite review on the album, subscription has been added. absolutely phenominal reaction/review

this dude knows how to read themes really well and make an interesting & investing review. Great stuff man, for sure gonna drop a sub for this. Edit: Also love how this dude doesn’t just dismiss A Tale By Quincy and takes time to treat it like a song as the story that it tells is very powerful and meaningful.

[@nrgao]

Aside from the obvious purgatory as a metaphorical highway trip while we listen to a radio station and host guide us through the transition, no matter how long it may last, I love how Abel frames this entire narative in a way that so many people frame their lives and their happiness/success; through a romantic lense. This entire look back on his life is around chasing this love and obtaining the love and approval of this special someone. It's something that defines so many of our lives. it starts with gasoline as this character has a nihilistic stance on life and love (It's 5 am, i'm nihilist, i know there's nothing after this. The only thing I understand Is zero sum of tenderness Tenderness Oh baby please just hold me close Make me believe there’s more to this). This is what has landed him here in the first place. This is what he must atone for and move past to escape purgatory. We see this start to happen in A Tale By Quincy and Outta Time. The character accepts that he has issues with intimacy and trauma that he must process and heal from. This plays out until we get to the resolution in Less Than Zero and Phantom Regret. This is the point of true acceptance that the character doesn't need the love and approval he has been chasing, but first, he needs to love himself and accept himself to truly BE the happiness he has been looking for. (You gotta be heaven to see heaven. May peace be with you.)

[@Cloclo1125]

less than zero BLEW MY MIND

[@carebee6261]

I have a few idea’s about the album cover and reason behind why he portrayed himself as an old man. First is him being cheeky towards his fanbase when many clam they want the “old weeknd” back. The second is him trying to imply that this may be one of his last albums because he’s getting older and close to retirement from the industry. Third is this is his mature state of mind and sound hence why he’s an older person. 🤷‍♀️maybe, maybe not…

[@carterwatson1949]

this might be one of my favorite weeknd albums ever after listening to it fully with you just so incredible and cohesive as well

I feel like this album is him dying and rewatching all his life in the afterlife therefore the old pic and all the afterlife mentions, they say when you die you see all your life choices and stuff is there and thats why he regrets it so much, i dont think is any correlation with Covid or the pandemic. Also i feel like its called the dawn bc all his youth he was in the dark and now finally its time for light and to accept all of his past mistakes and its time to move on Thats just what i got the feeling from all of this

9:23 that's not necessarily ODing. That's just keeping the person from drowning in their own vomit, so u turn them on their side so the vomit comes out. This happens a lot to drunk college kids and binge drinking culture. U can even put a backpack full of textbooks on them so they stay on their side. --- Just a life hack that can literally save a life.
