The vibrato, the shake in his voice, his falsetto tone, his beaten ass face. My goodness this man is perfection.

After Hours will destroy my mind

How refreshing to hear a break-up song that doesn't place the blame on the ex, and in fact, wishes them well. There's a lot of emotional maturity here. It's hard to move on from someone when they're the only lover you've ever known. Even harder to admit that you're the problem.

This song doesn’t get talked about enough

The “once again, The Weeknd” goes so perfectly with me continuously coming back to this vid like every 30 minutes

Earlier in his career he was harmonizing about his pain, drugs, lust, and the nightlife. Now he's realizing the damage he's done to his self and lovers. The Weeknd is growing before our very eyes.

Can't believe Grammys ignored this guy, this masterpiece...

I can tell it's painful for him to sing these songs...that's why I respect him so much. Give him his roses while he's here, people.

This album will destroy the billboard

“We fell apart right from the start” Sounds like when the right people met at the wrong time, so sad...

Still can't believe he didn't get nominated for a Grammy.

Yo please don't die too young...

This album going to be one of his best ones yet don’t get me wrong they’re all amazing tho

Bruh, this guys vocals are insane. Can’t wait for this album.

This song deserved a lot more mainstream radio play, it’s a great song & would definitely be a mainstay in the billboard top 10

MAn, he is crying . This album was made from his heart.

it's shocking to hear that this sounds exactly like the studio version

Every performance of this era feels like a movie scene. His body language and facial expressions express so many emotions of sadness, insanity. He's incredible!

The vocal quality sounds almost too good to be true it makes you think that maybe he has to be lip syncing or something but like nahhh that’s just how good he is lol

He sounds exactly like the studio version, even better... That's incredible. Vocal King.

we aren’t talking enough about the amount of different genres that he’s pulling off in this album. it will be a masterpiece. i don’t deserve you Abel, nobody does...

This will be played at every slow dance for the next 10 years

Only Abel can make the live performance more interesting than the recorded version.

he sounds EXACTLY like the studio version if not better!

When Daniel Craig said, "once again the weeknd" he was like, "oh you don't know what's gonna happen next". I bet he died during the stage rehearsals

Why is no one commenting on the fact that HIS VOCALS are AMAZING in this...

He’s got one of the most beautiful voices I’ve ever heard 🥺

When James Bond calls your name you know you're a legend.

If the corona virus messes up this tour I’m done

This album is already a classic and it hasn’t even come out yet.

This will be remembered 30 years from now still iconic

imagine not giving a single nomination to this masterpiece of an album.. grammys are a joke

I can't understand how people dislike the weeknd's videos...

Vocally there’s not a lot of people close to his talent

U can tell that song was about Bella I can tell through his voice the love he feels for her and his facial expressions at the end u can tell that song comes straight from the heart

Almost All the songs in After Hours deserves to be singles and be recognized world wide. He really delivers every single damn time. This man is Legendary right here.

I think the whole album’s gonna be full of 80s vibes

no one is talking about how insane his vocals sound like... no backtrack thats all him..

[Verse 1] When I saw the signs, I shoulda let you go (Yeah, yeah) But I kept you beside me And if I held you back, at least I held you close (Yeah) Should have known you were lonely [Pre-Chorus] I know things will never be the same Time we lost will never be replaced I'm the reason you forgot to love [Chorus] So don't be scared to live again Be scared to live again No, don't be scared to live again Be scared to live again [Verse 2] You always miss the chance to fall for someone else (Uh, uh) 'Cause your heart only knows me They try to win your love, but there was nothing left (Uh) They just made you feel lonely (Hey) [Pre-Chorus] I am not the man I used to be Did some things I couldn't let you see Refuse to be the one who taints your heart [Chorus] So don't be scared to live again Be scared to live again No, don't be scared to live again Be scared to live again (Hey) [Post-Chorus] I hope you know that, I hope you know that I've been praying that you find yourself I hope you know that, I hope you know that We fell apart, right from the start [Bridge] I should have made you my only When it's said and done [Chorus] So don't be scared to live again Be scared to live again I said don't be scared to live again Be scared to live again (Oh) [Post-Chorus] I hope you know that, I hope you know that I've been praying that you find yourself I hope you know that, I hope you know that We fell apart, right from the start You're welcome 👍

Abel’s “hey!” Is absolutely undefeated.

“And if I held you back at least I held you close.” Omg 😩😩😩😩

Who else wants Abel to finally be genuinely happy?

Most underrated song the album, such an amazing song and this performance is amazing, you can really hear his voice live which is absolutely amazing.

i went to ahtd tour (sao paulo, 10/10/23) and its crazy he sounds EXACTLY like this live. pure madness, one in a million

A song that should be in the ending of a romance movie : )

If this man still with same fire content that he did and he still doing ........this man will be one of the best in the history in a short period of time because you can't describe what he is doing right now without saying " This man is something special ".

I mean this is late, but I am in love with his voice. I mean......i can't- He has the most beautiful voice I have ever heard. Like, goddamn.

I cannot exaggerate how impactful this song is too me …. Every single lyric perfectly correlates my relationship at the time of this songs release…. It genuinely feels like I wrote this song myself if that makes sense … bless you Weeknd.

Like just stop for a second and realize that we are living in the times of this man. Like just really think about it for a moment. You know how we look back on legends like Prince and MJ? We are witnessing this man become one of them. Maybe he’s not there yet, but he’s on his way just like they were at some point. He’s on another level.

This feels like the song angel just more beautiful and more 80s

after hours album is the only thing i listen to. his voice is so beautiful it's literally perfect this performance is god tier

ladies and gentlemen.. this is what you call real music

This guy is really going for the throne

I feel like this album perfectly describes his evolution, and he chose the sequence of the new songs perfectly....first we have heartless, an homage to his past, then blinding lights, having fun but blinded by the truth, then after hours, sitting in reflection, and now Scared to Live, a sort of confessional and asking forgivness. Genius.

we need an actual music video for this

Look at that emotion. How amazing that he is able to put that much emotion into his music and still sound so beautiful.

Admitting that you're the toxic part of the relationship is so rare, this song is beautiful

Producer: Do you want to try some auto tune? The Weeknd: What’s that?

Honestly I think that at the Moment he his One of the most emotional Singer on the Earth. He his Amazing 😍

Since i lost my mom, i've been scared to live again, but some amazing songs like these show my another side of life.

After breaking things off in a toxic relationship, this hits on a different level than I ever would’ve imagined

What if this song is written to himself telling him he can find love and doesn’t have to hide away

Synthesizer by Oneohtrix Point Never/Daniel Lopatin doesn't get talked about much here. It makes this version so so much better than the studio version. And elevates it to a level that combined with The Weeknd's vocals is pure MAGIC and SURREAL ❤️

This lowkey sounds like a closing song to a banger musical episode of a banger tv show

The Weeknd doesn’t need autotune Autotune needs The Weeknd. Only applauses 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Perfection. 3:00 sounds just like MJ when he comes off the note. I had to replay it.

I love coming back to this video and reading the comment section. Everybody feeling what I feel. All these people touched by him.

WHO’S READY FOR AFTER HOURS?!?!

HIS FACIAL EXPRESSIONS HE'S REALLY FEELING IT

2:54 wow so amazing

My ex sent me this when we broke up I’m still heartbroken

I don’t think I’ve ever been more emotionally invested in waiting for an album...

His facial expressions .. He feels every word he said...

Man his promotion of the album was killer. The red suit, every performance he went to he looked like he got beat the fuck up, the gloves; top notch. And *also* the album was really good.

This performance gives me chills ..

I feel like he is talking to himself in third person with this song. Hits really hard.

This song will be played at Proms for the next 50 years.

He’s so passionate with his performances I love him so much

i literally can’t stop watching this

This song feels like an ending of an high school 80s movie showing the after credits it gives me a nostalgic vibe damn the Weeknd I feel like I’m growing an Afro as well lol

Not even 10 seconds into his performance, I got chills throughout my body. This man has a true talent and I can’t wait for his album to drop.

This song is the most beautiful thing ever

I love how Oneohtrix point never is just vibing playing the piano

This song is like a convincing letter to the girl from birds pt 1 and 2

The people who disliked this video accidentally pressed the wrong thumb while crying

"We fell apart, right from the start" hits me every time :(

Can we appreciate the keyboard man(Daniel Lopatin/OPN)for his performance?

This is honestly shaping up to be his best album🩸 it’s so vibrant and DIFFERENT! All the songs he has released so far have been amazing

one of the best and most competent artists now on mainstream, he performs his songs live so efortlessly and with a great accuracy, after hours favorite album of 2020.

This song is highly underrated. But it stays my sweet secret. Love you Abel.

This performance is better than the actual song

After corona is over ima sing this to everybody

This song feels like a soothing balm for a broken heart that never got the apology it deserved. 🥺 Thank you, Abel ❤️ XO ❤️

His voice in this song touched my Heart ,too my soul ...I think your voice no need music cause your voice is the music...

i can't describe the feeling this song give me. the vibe, his voice, personality, wow. weeknd i really love u. already know album is gonna be fuckin masterpiece.

Can we talk about how he’s literally holding back t e a r s at roughly 2:56 - 3:00? I can literally feel ever single emotion he is and it hurts god damn it

He is INCREDIBLE , absolutely love his voice, his songs Refreshing to see new, different talent

I don't know why I am crying, I bawled my eyes out, I feel like he wrote this for his mom and himself, take out the word baby and replace it with mom. The father left them, now he has grown and left home.

This is better than the recorded version
