mfs prob hated blinding lights on first listen too lets be honest, but now that song is universally loved (not saying DITF will reach that level of success)
Oh niggas definitely didnât like Blinding Lights when it released, I think it got the same criticisms that DITF is getting right now. Too poppy, too cheesy, bland, etc.
Itâs a little disheartening that the music video for the lead single to the final Weeknd album is just a glorified iPhone ad
At least the song is great though
"At least the song is great though"
Why yall d***riding so hard lol? This is the lead single to his album and the intro to this new era. It's not just an apple commercial. That's just one issue though, the song is equally generic and trash. Nigga still chasing a Blinding Lights hit. Hang up the 80s synths unc it's over
Using the word unc online just exposes you as a 16 year old white boy

its a trilogy bro, this would be like asking why echoes of silence is still sounding like dark rnb
i didnât like Take My Breath til i heard the rest of the album
Album version >>>>>> Single version
ya'll remember the og blinding lights video for the mercedes brand deal?? he might drop another video for dancing in the flames if he follows the same approach

Song is DEFINITELY not trash. It's really safe but catchy. If any other popgirl came out with it, it would be beloved but we ain't even gonna get into that. its obv weeknd got diff expectations but we still gotta remember he is a full blown popstar, ofc the single will be for the radio and general population

!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0d_cO8Z8AgThis would make sense if the DITF video wasnât labeled âOfficial Music Videoâ
Yeah but he only dropped the second vid after BL blew up again, if this flops he ainât doing a new vid I think
nah blinding lights was always gonna go crazy. i think they knew that long before
Ya'll think him or the label panicked after dawn fm sales and went this safe route?

I disagree. Blinding lights was loved by almost everyone that heard it on first go. I remember everyone praising him for both singles as one was pop other was trap R&B

imo yes
