      @@atom0824 there are definitely layers to that lyric.
      1. people change. the weeknd discusses the subtle disappointing women have upon learning of his true nature or demons. or how he has changed/will change over time.
      2. they're so fucking faded that nothing makes sense and you cant recognize anyone.

I really put a lot of dedication and effort into this video to make it the best I can and my goal is for Abel to hopefully see it or at least hear about it. So if you can just do me a solid as a fan and check it out that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much and I hope everyone stays safe!!

Had a couple House of Balloon themed parties in honor of this song. Fun, crazy times. Now 10 years later I am 28, a mother to a beautiful child, matured and grown n sexy, a whole different woman. Memories memories, I will always love this song ❤

  • @sicapeo
    @sicapeo 8 років тому +3762

    This whole song is a trip. The first part is so happy. Just like when you first get high but then the second part is the come down. I hate when the song finishes. Because then you have to replay it. Then you have to get high again and come down once more. And you are caught in a cycle of ecstasy and pain.
    UPDATE: Lol oh shit 4 years later and I never thought this comment will get crazy likes, thanks guys!
    I was high af when I wrote the comment. So while I was listening I was also riding out the physical feeling. Today I think the first part is “happy” but in an eery and destructive way. Ghoulish almost as someone mentioned here, with something hiding behind the “happiness”. I miss those Trilogy days man, but look where our boy is at today, number 1! Love and blessings to you all!

    Siouxsie and Banshees Happy House for those that do not know where the background comes from. That was a Post Punk band from the late 70's. Siouxsie was the singer. In the late 70's punk was dying as everyone was getting bored however, a genre was born Due to that boredom that was called post punk. and the kids like siouxsie started mixing genres with punk. Rock genres likes psicodelia, Avant Garde and minimalism. Abel is a smart young man and we the fans of that in old music appreciation appreciation as well.

      Not really scary, just ironic. its not like shes inhaling Joker gas or noxious fumes lol. Its just weed smoke or drug smoke. They arent happy, so the irony is that its a happy house. Also, I think one of the samples comes from a song that has the same irony so he might have been influenced by it.

    Just bought Trilogy today and had this song on repeat for hours. I can't get enough of it. This goes down as one of my faves. I have 5 of his albums and ONLY listen to the weekend in my car. ONLY the Weeknd in my car. My son put me on this. The first song i ever heard was Wicked Games and been in love with him ever since

      Heard the "WOAAAAA WOAAAAA OH OH" in their happy house song just now and knew that was a sample of a song I heard before but I couldn't put my finger on it, found my way here.
      Glad to see ppl giving them their flowers for being a huge inspiration for this song sonically.

      @@burntnikesock212 I’m ac so happy some people appreciate the og artist that was sampled! I actually hate how artists like the weekend don’t credit them over UA-cam and whatnot. Like he’s sampled so many other goth artists and none are getting credit😭

    It's amazing when you look back at how much this guy has influenced the r and b scene. Even with the so many amazing songs to come out that have been influenced by him, when I hear songs like these ones and the zone I still get transported to some other world where a rare few others can. He really has something special.
