Fuck ! I had to wait 30 years for the sound of the 80´s to make a come back .. It´s like GTA 3 had a child with Michael Jackson and Pablo Escobar was throwing a cocaine party with sprinkle of Fear and loathing . An absolute masterpiece .

Blinding Lights MV 3. Blinding Lights Live at Jimmy Kimmel 4. After Hours (Short Film) 5. In Your Eyes MV 6. Untill I Bleed Out MV Nice reaction 👍👍

Great Reaction! Another great song that he put out in his most recent album is called In Your Eyes, which is a total 80's inspired song too that is really amazing. But my all time favorite is Save Your Tears, which has easily made it in to my top 10 favorite songs of all time.
