Vocal Coach/Musician Reacts: THE WEEKND 'Blinding Lights' Live VMA's 2020

[@moe381]

The Weekend is the Modern Day Michael Jackson. Imagine if MJ was around to do a collab with him would be INSANE!!!!!

[@ScramblePete]

The Weeknd is the first The Weeknd.

[@kelviodossantos9147]

He’s AMAZING , but not Michael Jackson level

[@aaaaa.kkkkkk]

@@kelviodossantos9147 yeah he is much better

[@dbzayan]

@@aaaaa.kkkkkk Well, I still think they're the top of their respective genres.

[@danielalejandromayosalaman7874]

Omg that would be completely insane. I miss michael jackson but thanks to the universe we have The Weeknd 💥✨❤️✨💥❤️

[@Stormbreaker1924]

He is truly sensational when he sings.. he makes u feel alive with his voice. Just amazing!!

[@diorgata7041]

In regards to your question about if The Weeknd has an artistic director. The answer is yes - his Creative Director is La Mar C Taylor, The Weeknd's best friend from childhood who dropped out of high school with him. Together they create amazing things as you know.. XO

@GANY 😂😂

[@anubhavsharma991]

You need to watch scared to live live performance which is already on youtube

[@XODUANE]

GOLEM gaming I couldn’t agree more

[@ResidentPug]

Yes! The vocals in it are amazing

[@aryanrane8219]

Yeah

[@dev1ldestiny871]

and to Over Now, that released a week ago.

[@nsroxo8211]

@Nina U should really watch this

[@Qichar]

If you can believe it, I just discovered THE WEEKND today, and I'm blown away. I grew up in the 80's and the way he evokes that musical sensibility is just astonishing. And his voice is so pure, not one in a million people have such clarity in the upper part of their range. It's mesmerizing.

[@angelaleal2910]

Yeahh...he's AMAZING right?!? ❤❤❤

[@TNTMAN-0]

Yes he is

[@ui5971]

Hell yeah dude

[@ui5971]

Hell yeah

[@souravmajhi2174]

'Amazing' is too underrated

[@CTHLM10]

The fact that they used helicopters instead of drones 🔥

[@imnotxenangaminglol6440]

It really sets the mood of the permance

[@JonathanGonzalez-ty4vh]

We need more Weeknd reactions, I think I speak for most people when I say this !!!

[@adityapatel2818]

Justin Bieber after seeing this weekend performance would have peed his pants

[@gabe1913]

I’ve had the opportunity to hear him live 8 times and he definitely exceeds all expectations. He’s incredibly talented. I recommend catching him on tour.

[@boualbanisally4009]

Lucky you

[@fabricioroblero6191]

REACT TO HIS HOUSE OF BALLOONS MIXTAPE

[@habboFreak58]

I hope she does :c

[@j1918]

There's nothing better than when the artists loves the song(s) they're performing it just makes the performance better!!

[@o0oo0o70]

He must really know his camera's and music bc both looks and sounds expensive asf. The quality on this video was much better than any other performances from this show.

[@KyOte13]

Unreal talent... what an amazing performer & singer, his voice is off the charts

[@souravmajhi2174]

MJ be like: Bitch, am I really dead ? 🔥🔥🔥

[@sabtuxahad]

@@souravmajhi2174 its funny how you thought you had something there

[@souravmajhi2174]

@@sabtuxahad oh really !!!!!!

[@peterwho9380]

To see you be amazed by him is just AMAZING! Funny thing is my little nephew Quincy met The Weeknd at the studio in CA last year as my brother in law "Alex G" also works under the boss of Abel! Quincy had no idea who he was and my sister just told him to just call him "Starboy!"...

[@etyoutube401]

I'm a big fan of The weeknd, but how many of you know his real name is Abel Makkonen Tesfaye???

[@juliansanchezharris5773]

Didn't know the Makkonen part. Sounds finnish.

[@etyoutube401]

@@juliansanchezharris5773 Not Finnish, Its Ethiopian

[@juliansanchezharris5773]

@@etyoutube401 Yeah i know, but being a swede living next to Finland, the name was strikingly similar to that of a finnish lastname.

[@whatskrakin37]

He went from being homeless to one of the G.O.A.T

[@richlisola1]

Everyone knows his name

[@Kindness.20247]

He does have a very loud powerful vocal. I like the beat of this song. Talented

[@mehranafsarpanah3716]

🔥🔥🔥Finally someone has noticed his perfect vocals 😉😁😁😍 Can you react to his other live perfumences? and also have you heard Trilogy album?

[@teknovex7672]

Kiss Land too

[@randallmay6345]

This wasn't a live performance, it was a prerecorded vocals and then shot with sound effects laid over to give you the illusion to match the visual. To truly appreciate his live vocals watch his SNL performance.

[@MarcosBY]

I would love to listen to Scared to Live and Until I bleed Out live

[@littletickle505]

I would love to see him live too, but he has never performed in SA before

[@MarcosBY]

RDY1 X'O Nor in Spain!! :(

The good I know I know... I mean watching it in real life

[@cyonruiz7598]

I can't stop singing along with the music lol it's like I'm hypnotized

[@yvsdna]

you should react to like an entire The Weeknd concert, to see how he's able to keep this up through an hour....also his best friend since childhood, Lamar C Taylor does his creative direction

[@ilikethatboulder.thatisani5496]

It is indeed a helicopter and it makes the performance feel that much more grand 👏

[@anmusic6]

THE REACTION THAT I NEEDED!!!!!! IT WAS AN AMAZING PERFORMANCE!!!!!!

[@CASSIOPEIAMASHUPS]

His vocals were so good here! I kept wondering about what the fireworks budget must’ve been 😂

[@ArlitaSerli-bb3dx]

I think i already watch this video 20 Times just love it so much

[@DustyBeans]

It was an awesome performance. He deserves all his awards and more. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@TonyKimtheamusementparkfan]

When he's performing this song, he's just having a good time up there~ The way he's moving, the hype he brings, and just the vibe of this song with this live performance is amazing~ The Weeknd is just an artist that you can't compare to anyone else. His vocals are on point all the time~

[@jeanettes2170]

Did you see his performance of Blinding Lights on Saturday Night Live? It was incredible! He is such a great artist and performer.

[@lauramendez2537]

Every time i watch this performance i have goosebumps! It was amazing

[@luisianna82]

Me too!!

[@xotwod0487]

U need to react to all his albums🤩

[@6anthony8]

His voice is amazing

[@riikkasenila5886]

Hi i just found Weeknd,i really enjoy his music.

[@gustavosequera8572]

Greatest performance of the night!

[@P-Guy111]

Imagine like a mj and the weeknd collab, that woupd be amazing.

[@welcometomycemetery]

‘Kid in a candy shop’ I feel that everytime I see Abel ;)

[@aagc1988]

nina, fun fact: ALL VMA's 2020 performances where pre recorded and edited. plus the weeknd and miley cyrus did not singed live. thats why he jumped from the mirror hall to the triangular balcony. thats why is perfect pitched and perfectly singed out.

[@juliansanchezharris5773]

Also fun fact. It's all still authentic. No digitals or cgi nor autotune. ...Imagine the neighbours of The Edge building that thursday night 😂

[@jswatch9270]

This is amazing, one of the best videos from MTV.

[@stasmarine1638]

Diana Ankudinova is a young performer who shocks us with her pleasant voice and takes us into the abyss of events!!! Diana Ankudinova is unique and inimitable, goosebumps from her voice!=)))) Diana sings as if she lives in the song! The soul freezes or opens with Diana's voice.=))))))) I am a musician who has been with music for years, and believe me, I have not heard such a tone in all these past years. 1000000%!!!😁🔥🔥🔥🎤🎤🎤🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶💖💖

[@7Taric]

Each song by *Diana* surprises and amazes with its novelty of sound! In addition to the unique range and timbre of her voice, combined with excellent performance technique, *Diana* is extremely diverse in musical genres and styles! In addition, she sings in several languages, whose native speakers celebrate her good pronunciation! The emotional impact on listeners who do not understand the meaning of the song is amazing! No wonder *Diana* is called the " *Lady* or *Queen* *of* *Goosebumps* "!

[@sergeykot8753]

Diana Ankudinova 😊👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💥💥💥🎉💫💯

[@Dtansing1]

He is 2022,s Michael Jackson. But better, much better.

[@pasrahlayan2693]

And that is by far the best reaction I seen...luv u😎

[@oliverakasynthhz6918]

You should listen to all of The Weeknd’s discography to see how much he’s evolved over the time

[@section5760]

Just listen to the 80s love. Can’t beat them tunes.

[@jenniferhof9448]

I would so love to see a collab song between the Weeknd and Billie Eilish. I think it would just be phenomenal!

Sorry if I come off rude, but do you know that Christina's "Reflection" (2020) happened? For the 2020 Live Action Mulan movie. I'm so confused by many fans of Christina who have reaction channels not doing a reaction videos to the updated vocal of the song.
