"In the night she was dancin' to relieve the pain" "He was so cold and unforgiving" "She was young and she was forced to be a woman" "In the night when she comes crawlin' dollar Bills and tears keep fallin' down her face" Damm these lines hit really hard 😭💔
It's about a Stripper who was abused as a child and consequently only belives her body has worth. "She was numb and she was so co-dependant" as well as " She was young and she was forced to be a woman" show that she was a child when she was abused. This song is not only deep but really Dark.
I randomly got super into The Weekend, and I've been listening to all his songs on repeat. I never used to be a big fan of this song when I was younger, but actually hearing the lyrics and understanding it...it's so deep. Many of his songs are so deep.
This song is so sad, i remember being obsessed with it when I first heard it. My mind wouldn’t really function at the time but now that I’m 13, the lyrics are understandable and it breaks my heart.
I heard this when I was 13 too, and listening to the song again. I still enjoyed it, but after reading the comments, I never thought that it was about a girl who was abused, became a stripper.
It’s funny how kids nowadays think they “know” what this shit feels like, almost as if y’all are trying to be adults, but trust me, you’re far from being one, heck I’m an adult and still don’t feel like one! And being an adult isn’t a pretty feeling, but Netflix sure makes it seem cool, right? Smh
@@SachKol what the fuck are you talking about? just because teenagers are young doesn’t mean they don’t go through shit? you think just because you pay taxes you’ve been through life? lmao get a grip, i work with kids and teens and their stories will make a grown woman cry. they go through it too.
@@SachKol people can go through sexual assault and become hypersexual at literally any age bro. I agree that this new generation acts more mature than they should but something like this happens
That is the sad truth. This song is about a young woman who has mental troubles because of what she went through. It is sad that people don’t understand.
The first time I listened to it, it was my least favorite song on BBTM (somehow). Listened to it again the next day and went into the top 5 in one listen. It’s amazing
*For those who don't understand:* Though upbeat in tempo, “In the Night” explores dark themes following a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, similar to the “horror stories” told on The Weeknd’s debut studio album, Kiss Land. The New York Times describes “In the Night” as the album’s most electric moment. The song is reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe’s survival story - American actress and model was sexually abused as a child and often spoke out about it in the media. Interestingly, Marilyn Monroe was able to use her sexuality as a source of healing, becoming known as “America’s Most Famous Sex Symbol.” In an interview with GQ, The Weeknd speaks about this inspiration: Max’s studio used to be Marilyn Monroe’s old house and I came up with the concept for a song called “In the Night” in her bedroom. That was pretty amazing. Unfortunately I couldn’t help but imagine Joe DiMaggio’s sperm everywhere on the floor. The Weeknd also revealed further inspiration to the The New York Times, stating the song was made in homage to Michael Jackson. When first played for music publisher, Ron Perry, screamed with excitement:
This is my favourite lyric video cause the background just fits the song so well. A girl's eye who looks about as powerful as the Weeknd describes. It only adds to the energy of the song.
This song makes me sad lol 😅 a woman psychologically conditioned into being unable to live without the humiliating life of being pimped out to horrible men. I think that's why he sings "I don't think you understand" because it's a catchy song on the outside until we actually listen to it
The references to being raped and how she’s haunted by it are bold and deep, much appreciated lyrics. “He sang a song when he did it.” So when she hears it it makes her weak.” It’s a real thing and it’s terrible.
It's not just that, but she's psychologically conditioned to not live without this kind of humiliating treatment. It's terrible, much so that she drops to her knees like religion.
Music is open to interpretation there is no single meaning to a song it's how the soul looks at it. 1000 different people listen to a song, 1000 different reactions. It's about a person living with no limit but with no love I see
The part “she was forced to be a woman” got me because I wanted to be free but I was forced to be “lady like” My grandparents were strict about my thick puffy curly wavy hair, they always wanted me to have straight hair I was also forced to be “pretty” not “ugly” and see me as a ugly Person with natural things and it hits different that many people went through a lot
My favorite songs from The Weeknd: In Your Eyes-This song played in Cobra Kai Season 4 when Robby and Tory danced at the junior prom. Blinding Lights-Has a funky beat to it and has an 80s pop tune to it, like In Your Eyes And now, this song!
Yayyy i found the song ive been looking for this song i heard it on the radio and i forgot the name of the song but when i heard the lyrics i feel better now
In the night she hears him Calling in the night she's dancing to relieve her pain she'll never walk away he's telling whoever him is she is in to deep he can't save her but I don't think you understand that's the message I'm trying to help but I don't think you understand you notice he talks about him but the problem seems to be her
I just got this song stuck in my head after not hearing it for 6 years 😂 edit:omg thanks for the likes

She’ll never walk away I don’t think you’d understand is my favorite lines
Damn 😢
“He sang a song when he did it. “
“It made her weak when she hear it”
“It got her on her knees like religion”

Michael Jackson would be glad to see this guy spread his music all over the world

This is a Song is about a stripper who is abused. It’s really deep when you think about it.

To the people who don’t get the song. He literally says “I don’t think you understand” so even Abel called you dumb

Bros on a third grade writing level

Thank you! i didnt know!!!!!
These lyrics go HARD
the 5 people who disliked the song dont understand
F vro hahahaha
The 5 extra people who disliked the song are living the song
true
That is why "I don't think you understand"for those who disliked lol

Ever time I hear this song I get chills. Especially the maine singing part.
This is my favourite lyric video cause the background just fits the song so well. A girl's eye who looks about as powerful as the Weeknd describes. It only adds to the energy of the song.
I don’t know why but when I’m scared or nervous I sing this song in my head and it calms me down
It’s because you have to sing it reaching high notes and somehow you *sing* your stress away...I don’t know if you get me😅hope I explained it well😅✨
@@daddyissuesonmode1180 i understand i sing my emotions away to. It is my escape.
sameeee
This song makes me sad lol 😅 a woman psychologically conditioned into being unable to live without the humiliating life of being pimped out to horrible men. I think that's why he sings "I don't think you understand" because it's a catchy song on the outside until we actually listen to it
This song reminds me of weeknds song I can’t feel my face especially in the beginning
i guess you can say this song is a… ‘reminder’ hehe
Ikr
Same producer that’s why
Only “Losers” make jokes like that 😂
It does sound similar
Something that made me like the weeknd for 6 years is all his songs got a story
The references to being raped and how she’s haunted by it are bold and deep, much appreciated lyrics. “He sang a song when he did it.” So when she hears it it makes her weak.” It’s a real thing and it’s terrible.
It's not just that, but she's psychologically conditioned to not live without this kind of humiliating treatment. It's terrible, much so that she drops to her knees like religion.
Yo I forgot about this song, it brings back memories
Is it me or did some of y’all not like this song at first, but came back to hear it once more, and suddenly kept coming back every day
After 6 years im still in love with this song
Sameeee
The moosstt *underrated* weeknd song in my opinion!🥲
“ in the night she’s dancin to relive the pain” 😭😭😭
One of the Best R&B that I've heard ^w^
This song is great especially the back vocals like at 3:35 and at 3:02 to 3:08
I heard this song when I was in class 7-8...and after that I kept on thinking the name of this song and singer...and finally got it...s
mg this song like stabs me in the heart idk why lmao😂😞🥺
This is a song about a woman's depression and madness. Sad I've loved women like her
Jacob Hoover yea read it? And look at the song in the genius website
It's about a girl who was sexually abused as a young girl and has now become a stripper as she got older
This song is about sexual abuse. Try again.
This song lijit describes me...
Music is open to interpretation there is no single meaning to a song it's how the soul looks at it. 1000 different people listen to a song, 1000 different reactions. It's about a person living with no limit but with no love I see
i never thought RnB can tell a story -Genius
The part “she was forced to be a woman” got me because I wanted to be free but I was forced to be “lady like”
My grandparents were strict about my thick puffy curly wavy hair, they always wanted me to have straight hair
I was also forced to be “pretty” not “ugly” and see me as a ugly Person with natural things and it hits different that many people went through a lot
I think it meant that she got sexually abused at a young age
“She was forced to be a woman” means the girl he’s talking about was sexually abused when she was a child…
Thats a really really incredible song❤️❤️❤️
This song is about a stripper who was abused so the lyrics r so deeeeeep
I've been looking for this song for at least a year. It's so similar and yet so different from what I remember
This song is so cool . It got a Michael Jackson vibe
FR
His voice is so perfect honestly
This song makes me think of strippers, hookers, and BDSM done incorrectly but I love it
It's actually about rape.. it's pretty sad yet true.
Never have i liked a song this much that i wished that I had written it.
I'm still listening to this beautiful song in 2024 ❤️🥰
loving the way this is. I love doing this so I can understand the song:)
1:34 Yoo I didn't know the meaning of the song, but now that I know it's about sexual assault this part is sooo fucked up
Who’s here in 2024
I am, brother
Yessir
An absolute blinding (pun) tune.💯🔥
Wow there is another layer to this song. Amazing
This song actually made me cry just now
Can't get this song outa my Head!!!
" I DON'T THINK YOU UNDERSTAND"
There goes that GOAT again.
Heard this song in 2015 and finally found it.
Who doesn't dance at night to relieve the pain? I love the Weeknd for this line.
Don't worry, you're not the only person who comes back here, even after 5 years. Masterpieces tend to be timeless.
I was leaving 6th grade heading into 7th grade when this came out
Altro capolavoro di the weeknd
Thanks for the English subtitles.
Greetings from Argentina.
I almost found myself in this situation wow. Thank TMH

And I'm a Gemini.. no big deal! ^_^ 💜
