You know you have to do Kissland next, right? Much love, brotha.

The Host/XO transition into Initiation is my favourite thing in music

KISSLAND NEXT!!!! YOU GOT THIS JON

Initiation - as a recovering addict/alcoholic, this song was just a vibe that made my skin crawl when i first heard it. It was my lifestyle at one point, high on uppers and then coming down to ‘normal’ and then messed up on downers, then coming back up, constantly trying to find that miraculous balance that never truly existed. This song weaving between the highs and lows is just such a great musical metaphor for how this day to day tug o war can be so exhausting.

Idk why I loved that creepy-ass "Initiation" song as a young girl but damn its still good

Jon, you da 🐐 for this

‘“I’m so glad I don’t have daughters so they can’t meet The Weeknd” 😂

I feel like you need to know this: you actually may be the best music reactor on the whole of KZfaq. The way you break down songs/albums and are able to describe so eloquently the sonic and thematic/conceptual elements of music is top tier. I mean to the level you could be a professional music critic (whatever the fuck that is). I think Rock Reacts not being a thing anymore allowed you to reach new depths in terms of analysis. More power to you. Wish u all the success

Initiation, as dark as it is, is one of the most musically creative songs The Weeknd has ever written. The up and down modified pitch of his vocals represent the ups and downs, the mania and depression, the girl is experiencing through her adventure of drugs, sex and partying and the lyrics portray what that lifestyle is guiding her to do. It truly is a masterpiece

Beat reaction channel feels like I’m reliving these albums

“dark sexy vampire” 😫😫😂😭😂😂😂😂

YESSS I'VE BEEN REFRESHING YOUR CHANNEL FOR DAYS NOW

KISSLAND! Don’t miss out on this masterpiece it’s really lyrical and has a lot of storytelling. It’s also atmospheric and cinematic and the instrumentals are out of this world

Oh boi Kissland is next, and knowing Jon's taste, it may be his fav 😁😁😁

I remember first getting this, no one knew if "Weeknd" was a group a person or a voice. Oh my god this ep is the best thing I think he ever put out . Dark fantasy as an exposure album but the nostalgic feelings I get listening to this again still gives me chills. Out of the trilogy this was perfection. Thanks Jon for going back over this

Echoes of Silence was the perfect end to Trilogy💯

The Weeknd is special for being able to paint pain in such a beautiful way. There won't be another like him. Thank you for sharing this experience with us!

I always want The Weeknd to go back to this type of music but I’m so glad he changed it up also because I fear if he didn’t I would’ve got bored of the same ol music. The man is truly a legend in his own ways. Out here in Cali, as soon as it’s 70degrees and cloudy it’s Trilogy Szn. Some of the best music I have ever heard

kissland my guy you’ll love it

i was smiling so hard when he reacted to D.D.

someone said the weeknd’s music is narrating his character. he’s “self aware of his self-destruction”

I don't think I've ever waited a KZfaq video as much as I did during this series. You're by far the best one at doing these reactions and it's not even close. To be the man you gotta beat the man, and there's nobody even in the same stratosphere with you. Not sure if you're continuing The Weeknd season, hopefully you do, but at some point would love to hear your thoughts on Trilogy as a whole, when you've had time to go through it with time and Genius. In video, audio, writing, anything goes, just interested to hear your thoughts after a while. Anyway, great job as always. Unsubd.

Being there since the beginning was such a special experience. The mystery and the hysteria was so intoxicating. Trilogy is just something so dear to me and I'm glad you got to experience it.

Kissland is something that’s gonna blow you away dog, please do it

The initiation about to blow his mind lol

The “leave me alone”, I FELT that, that song is so so dark but SO good you can’t stop listening

“Next” is hands down my favourite song of all time 🔥

Is it just me or is john the best reactor ever especially to abel

“He is the dark sexy vampire” Nailed it.

“The dark vampire in his voice. Giving up his manipulation in his lyrics right in front of you”...couldn’t have described the trilogy Weeknd in any better words bro 👍👀🔥

Hey man I just finished watching earlier 2 album reactions just now, and u dropped last one the very next second! Its 1.00 AM here man! Just like u say in reaction, U CAN'T DO THIS TO ME, LET ME SLEEP BRO!

All I can say is THANK YOU Jon for opening my eyes to the trilogy, had it on repeat for like 2 days now, its unbelievable 😮

Let me tell you. Kiss Land is whole another world. Trilogy is so dark and mysterious but kiss land has that horror movie vibes in almost every song and the LYRICS!!!! You'll feel like watching a story so get ready for that one.

KISS LAND NEXT LESSGO

Kissland is without a doubt the most slept on album of our generation.

I genuinely love reading and seeing everyone’s reactions and recommendations for you doing these. XO is alive and well (not that anyone said it was dead) but holy shit are we some passionate fans. XOTWOD

Kiss Land literally changed my life. It was an experience that you can not miss out on. I need to see a Kiss Land reaction next week my guy

Jon: "good side of hell"

As a fan of The Weeknd since 2011 I can honestly say watching these three reaction videos made me smile. One of the best reactions I’ve seen to the Trilogy in a while. Definitely subscribing and hope to see Kissland next. Cheers!

Dude I’ve enjoyed watching you feel the way I’ve felt every time I’ve listened to these records. You gotta follow up with Kiss Land, it’s the magnum opus as far as I’m concerned and I know so many others do too

There’s my life before Trilogy then my life after Trilogy.

XO/The Host is an incredible song, almost 10 years and I still can't get enough of it.

It’s time for キスランド

It's soooo good! After 8 years, Outside and Initiation are still 2 of my top 5 Weeknd songs!

That LEAVE ME ALONE during the host I just feel that so much

I just have to say, your reaction to the first 5 seconds of D.D. is probably the most genuine reaction to anything I've ever seen on any kind of reaction channel. That first little bit of confusion when you hear the opening lines like "Is he really doing this?" Then that little smirk 1:33 when it finally kicks in like "Yeah he's fuckin' doing this." I think I can speak for all Weeknd fans when I say that we had that EXACT reaction. Thank you for restoring the feeling Jon!

Oh hey, react to his standalone track "Enemy" BEFORE KissLand. It was kind of a bridge between the two bodies of work. It wasn't on an album but he has a knack for dropping a tease before the release of a new album. Enemy was first. Then, after KissLand album, he dropped "King of the Fall" before Beauty Behind the Madness.

When you do KISSLAND do the song "enemy" for a bonus! Definitely one of his most honest and insightful songs.

This for me is the pinnacle of his mixtapes. The emotions in his singing is super expressive compared to the previous mixtapes. Something about this record is always why it’s in a constant rotation for me.

This is. the best series of reaction videos on KZfaq. Its so rare to see someone's first reaction to this musical and emotional masterpiece. You've done well Jon.

Brock : Here comes the Pain Rey : Here comes the Cain The Weeknd : Here comes the Sun 😍

I was literally singing and moving along with MONTREAL reaction. U gave the best relatable relation videos. Thank you, was a great nostalgic ride for. XO

Nothing beats looking at others react the first time to this beauty

watching this made me reappreciate this entire album and ive heard it a million times

I keep coming back to all these mixtapes because I’ve still never heard anything like them, it’s awesome watching someone hear it for the first time

The reaction on “Initiation” 🤣🤣🤣 so accurate 😂😂

You’re the definition on what an Abel fan is. All of our first reactions. You’re reactions were raw and that’s what’s gonna get you far. If it ain’t XO then it gotta go

Man I've watched the trilogy reactions about 50 times already!! Keep up the good work bro

If you think about it, trilogy is the collection of projects that started reaction videos on KZfaq with Big Quint

Yes that’s Abel playing the piano

I was listening to the Weeknd when we didn’t know what his face looked like , made the music so mysterious and deep . Trying to explain to people who the Weeknd was and seeming crazy , he had no face ... “look , please, just listen to him ...”

The end of initiation is taken from one of Drake’s lines in The Zone “that north north, that up top, that OVO n that XO”

Montreal is one of my favorite Abel songs, the “hook” in French speaks directly to what he says

I subscribed just for this video. Been waiting all week for it.

I was seriously in a crazy place in my life when the original mixtapes came out .. very dark love and the weeknd got me thru it

yay the videos back up lol. i love watching this reaction

“He knows he’s not necessarily right for doing it but that’s just what he’s gonna do.” You got it Jon. Xo.

Big S/o from FRANCE THE WEEKND FANS SINCE 2012 🖤TRILOGY🖤

everybody can agree that there first experience listening to the trilogy was amazing

and remember to react to The Weeknd - King of the Fall it's only on KZfaq.

KISSLAND NEXT!! Cant wait to see it blow your mind with the out of this world instrumentals and storytelling, so excited to see your reaction to especially Belong To The World and Adaptation 🤯

I always forget why i love The Weeknd until i take a break and come back to him

Been waiting for the initiation reaction lmaoooo his face. It’s Abel’s darkest song.

I really, really hope you end up doing all of the projects he's done. Although they might not be as good as Trilogy. I'd just love to hear your thoughts on how he's transformed from an underground sensation to a worldwide superstar. U N S U B. ❤

Do yourself a favor, and react to Kiss Land soon. You will not regret it And a great reaction as well, keep going at it, thanks for the ride with Trilogy Jon

House of balloons gets the most recognition and had more popular songs, but this is my favorite from trilogy, so I definitely agree with you that it's better than House of Balloons.

ALMOST ON THE 60K JON GROWING SO FAST LEEEEEEEEEEES GO

The last songs from the three mixtapes (twenty eight, valerie and here comes the sun) were added when the mixtapes were remastered and released as Trilogy. That’s why ‘here comes the sun’ and the others might sound a bit separate from the other songs, as they were not the original endings to the mixtapes :)

Initiation will forever be the ultimate

JON YOU BLESS US ❤️

I was waiting for that initiation reaction lol. My favourite track

FINALLY

JUST WAIT UNTIL YOU HEAR THE TRANSITION FROM ADAPTATION TO LOVE IN THE SKY 😭😭😭 YOU'LL GET CHILLLSSSSSS

I've been waiting for thiissssssss

Echoes of silence is my favourite mixtape of the 3

hi! i'm a new subscriber after I saw your first part of this trilogy review. you're amazing, and honest. I never felt like you were exaggerating or faking any part of your reactions, which I love. keep doing what you're doing!! Can't wait for Kissland

Initiation is gonna always be my favourite song ever made❤

Production is FLAWLESS! Whole Trilogy produced by Illangelo (the best ever) and Doc McKinney . They deserve same credit as Abel. XOTWOD Edit: Jon I wish you good luck with your channel, succes, love and much more. You deserve it. You're honest and you're my favourite. Much love from Slovakia

till dawn definitely my favorites all time song from abel 🔥🔥

Nobody can truly live up to Michael Jackson and the legacy he left behind, but Abel’s version of Dirty Diana STILL till this day gives me chills! Just gives me reminders of MJ’s vocals and his falsetto. First song was a masterpiece on its own.

Kissland is literally a movie get ready for that

Montreal and Next are sooo gooood

The fact that Michael Jackson never got to hear The Weeknd makes me really sad.

19:40 the word that came to my mind was instability

Excited to see your reaction to the rest of Abel! Peace brotha! Love these sponsored songs! Spreading the love and vibesssss yow!!!
