What do you think of the video? I, being a massive fan of Abel, am thinking what in the actual f*ck? This is such a great song, and it had so much to work with for a cohesive visual production.  I mean, they could have at least done a sort of film noir story line if a black and white pallet is a must. I could see it now: a dangerous female in a 1940s trench coat lurking the streets looking for her next prey; all the while having The Weeknd perform the song as a soliloquy. But what do they do? Have a girl open up the video with a laughable “dance” and then it cuts to a shot of Abel singing–with his eyes barely opened.

 

Let’s just hope the ‘The Zone’ video featuring Drake makes up for this lackluster performance.

 

‘Trilogy’ will be available for purchase on November 13th!
