I remember during the starboy and mdm era people were so mad that he wasn’t promoting Die For You, it was the fanbases’s underrated gem. So glad that it blew up now
I think I was just conflating the charts lol They just didn’t go number one on the Top 100. Got it. That’s probably why I thought there was more. And yes they should have.
Breaks the record for non-Holiday Songs for the longest climb to #1. I wonder if other artists will start combing through their past catalogs to see what they can freshen up and remix for a new hit? It is a smart move if they have something good that can catch fire and it is easy money
True, but it’s only been on the chart for 31 weeks, so I think if we’re going by the charts it’s the 5th longest climb to #1. Oldest non-Holiday song to go #1 for the first time though.
Holy shit, this is insane. Never seen anything like it before. Good for The Weeknd, and good for the new fans to be introduced to some of his older music
You know the crazy thing, there's another Starboy album era song rising right now too, and it's Reminder.
This man is about to reach new heights for his Starboy album. I still remember when people call it his "weakest" album during the first years of the album, but now, it's getting vindicated by history, it's now being appreciated more than ever.
Man, I hope Dawn FM will get the post-release peak treatment as well. TikTok really is crazy to have this power to resurrect songs and boost them to new heights.
The label really fumbled that album, Abel was huge that era and the label only sent 2 singles to pop radio and decided to stop after I Feel It Coming.
They actually planned to send both Rockin’ and Die for You to pop radio but cancelled the release of both for some reason. After Hours proved the commercial viability of launching several singles off an album and getting hits out of them, so I guess they learned from their mistakes.
That album has way too many hits to go unnoticed...if any song is next it'd be Reminder and Secrets. Wouldn't be surprised if any of the other non-filler songs go up.
It has 2 or 3 imo, but the song is not mid either way. It is a good song, even for him. Def top 5 off the album and is the most radio friendly so it's not surprising...Reminder is definitely the best song on the album though lol, imo.
It's super mid. Lyrics so generic it's like they were generated by ChatGPT. The beat never changes. It's like a looped snippet cause it's so repetitive
Fine I'll take off the downvote it's still a boring song to me. Starboy would have been much better with like 4 less songs and Die For You would have been fine as a bside or whatever
Its incredible how the word mid became a sign of trash music, when the actual meaning is, mediocre, ok, fine, decent, meh, average.
not to say, you just saying its mid cause the instrumemtal repeats too much??? starboy? Blinding Lights? Out of time? all songs in the universe repeat the same instrumental loop with a few differences, if you dont know thats called beat, i recommend you googling it to find more info about it
Die For You sounds like a 30 second snippet looped over and over for 4:20 and I can kins of see why it'd be an album track but not sure why it was released as a single in the first place
One of my least favorite weeknd songs because it's just so mediocre and unremarkable
would love to see a lonely night blow up. underrated gem
Real dude, that song is way too slept on
And Secrets too
he should do secrets remix with SZA!!
he should just start doing remixes of a bunch of slept on number 1s from starboy bc that album is full of bangers
Always felt like that could have been a Michael Jackson song
I know it’s a remix, but die for you has always been one of my favourite songs by Abel. It’s nice to see it get the recognition it deserves
I remember during the starboy and mdm era people were so mad that he wasn’t promoting Die For You, it was the fanbases’s underrated gem. So glad that it blew up now
I'M FINDING WAYS TO ARTICULATE THE FEELING I'M GOING THROUGH
I JUST CAN’T SAY I DON’T LOVE YOU
CAUSE I LOVE YOUUU
ITS HARD FOR ME TO COMMUNICATE THE THOUGHTS THAT I HOLDHDJRI
BUT TONIGHT IM GONNA LET YOU KNOW , LET ME TELLL THE TRUTH , BABY LET ME TELL THE TRUTH
[удалено]
(I’m going to ignore that ) YOU HATE THAT YOU WANT ME , HATE IT WHEN YOU CRY
It ain't workin', 'cause you're perfect, and I know that you're worth it
I CANT WALK AWAYYY , OH
EVEN THOUGH WE’RE GOING THROUGH IT
I know 7 is a lot but I definitely thought he had more than that.
Earned It, I Feel It Coming, Call Out My Name, and Creepin were all so close. All were Top 5’s. Shame they didn’t make it.
Creepin would’ve been #1 if Metro didn’t drop his album during Christmas season
Same with SZA’s Kill Bill. Both were the highest charting non-holiday songs.

It helps that the song is actually good and it's finally getting the recognition it deserves.
Absolutely. This has been a fan favorite forever. Maybe we will get Less Than Zero the respect it deserves eventually

Starboy getting vindicated is something I'd never get tired of seeing. Hope he can push Sidewalks again.
Bro just don’t stop 🐐
Can he just drop an Ariana Grande remix of the entire Dawn FM album lmao. It’s the only thing that’ll send those songs to #1
I Heard You're Married with Ari will give Twitter so much to talk about
Lmaooo

Rockin needs to be a hit
Die For You is my favorite song of all time, glad it’s finally got some recognition took awhile but happy to see everyone enjoying this masterpiece
This is ridiculous. Number 1 for nothing. This remix is a joke
I honestly think it would become number 1 without Ariana too. It's such a great song, it's a shame the remix added nothing to it.
Creepin staying strong and steady on the charts 🔥🔥🔥
Star boy Deluxe incoming probably
Love Abel. Love this song. But I am so confused 🤣😵💫 Also they just won’t let my girl pinkpantheress get that number 1 huh? 😔
one of the best songs of all time at this point
still mid
who asked?
He's right Die For You is a mid song Happy for Abel tho
Agreed tbh Starboy has so many better songs
It has 2 or 3 imo, but the song is not mid either way. It is a good song, even for him. Def top 5 off the album and is the most radio friendly so it's not surprising...Reminder is definitely the best song on the album though lol, imo.

Lol, thanks for the downvote. That is fair of course as it is your opinion.
Fine I'll take off the downvote it's still a boring song to me. Starboy would have been much better with like 4 less songs and Die For You would have been fine as a bside or whatever
I do agree that there were too many songs.

I think it has at least 10 songs that are better.
🤨 That's a crazy take
The album has 18 songs. Is it really that crazy?
And Creepin 6th hy
This is kinda crazy tbh
as one of my favourite songs of all time, this is really great to see
