The Weekend

I thought the mirror room part was a missed and there was some sound issues, but overall, I thought it was pretty good. He just needs to loose the handheld microphone and get a headset so that he can move more.

Wow, I feel sorry for the kids that lived in most of your households. I am in my 50's, but I could easily sing along to most songs by The Weeknd. There is a reason why he gets a billion+ views on Youtube.  Songs are uber catchy, have a great beat, and he has a half decent voice.  I was a very late baby at the time, my parents were almost 40 years older than I am, but we always had a big cross section of music playing in the house.   I know my kids would listen to the Weeknd, but they know Who, Stones, and Depeche mode too. Maybe this fuels that argument that audiophiles use music to listen to their equipment and not their equipment to listen to music.


And ya, dill, I am sure your motivations were innocent. Not.

Pretty much right tomic601. That so many needed to comment negatively I would say hits a nerve :-).  Bet you many are so lost in old music they didn't even know who he was.

dill I find your repeated post obviously racist. Did you insist on correcting people and saying Gordon Sumner everytime someone said Sting?  Guessing no.

Today’s youth seem to care more about the choreography than the actual music. Growing up, you never saw Hendrix, The Who, Tull, Floyd, etc with dancers behind them.

What disingenuous trollop. How did Pete Townsend smashing guitars or Floyd’s lights and pyrotechnics enhance the music? It was as much ’performance" as anything today.

With the exception of John Williams, how many classical music artists do you know that write their own stuff? Michael Jackson didn’t play an instrument. Lots of rock singers barely do.

The Weeknd writes his own songs and has some collaborations.

Among the world’s best-selling music artists, with over 75 million records sold,[11] The Weeknd has won three Grammy Awards, five American Music Awards, nine Billboard Music Awards, two MTV Video Music Awards, nine Juno Awards, and has been nominated for an Academy Award.

Also a net worth of $100M.

You may not like him, but obviously talented.

dill try to fool someone else. Posting it once is pedantic even informative. Posting it twice as you did is trying to make something out of it, and not in a nice way. It is pretty obvious the goal.

Metallica would be great, but let's go out on a limb and get these people:

Didn't Michael Jackson lip sync? He curiously sounded almost exactly like the recordings.

Prince was an artists at the top of the game. He even made Eric Clapton feel inadequate.

:-)

I have seen him in concert twice and he did not appear to lip sync. The super bowl I am pretty certain he did.
