Just in Atlanta Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 If you haven't heard of the artist, that's on you, not on them. I'd love for rock to come back. But then I think of what I thought when my grandfather would shake his fist at any music made past 1965. Or my dad for anything past 1985. Trying not to be "that" guy. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, thanks for the vid, kinda soft sounding without the car scene vid, but you kids like what you like 👍 Go Bills!!! It's funny you say that because I'd never heard of him either but my first thought on listening to that song was that it sounds like something from the 80s. Luckily I don't care either way as I never watch the halftime show 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I consider WeekND stuff similar to a lot of 80s music, so maybe it won’t be so bad. I was hoping for "Up With People" 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not anything id listen to and i think so too. Bruno Mars kinda had the same mehhhh response with most age groups, and i think his SB changed his career trajectory, everyones mother liked him all the sudden. think this could do the same, we could def do worse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsfaninChicago Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 I actually think I saw them live at Lollapalooza a couple years back but let’s just say I was not in the state of mind that will give you the most accurate reporting on if they were any good or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say If you like/d Prince you would like Weeknd Not only have I never heard of him, I haven't even heard the name. Living in Japan really isolates me in many ways but I read about half the Uncut and Mojo magazines that get published. Well, there are worse things than being out of it. Me likey some Prince, though, so I should give him a try. EDIT: the Blinding Light video above is really nice. Good toonz.

Gugny Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I've never heard him, nor heard OF him. I like what people are writing about him, though. As a personal experiment, I'm going to avoid hearing him (will not be difficult) and just wait till the Super Bowl. I am intrigued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heavy Kevi Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Never heard of the weekand before but it sounded just like every 80's song. And the guy even looks like he could be Billy Ocean's son (or grandson). Meh... could be worse. Better than rolling out washed up Madonna, Maroon 5, etc... And on first listen it's better than current top 40, country, or rap/hip-hop. But idk who really cares that much. It the part of the game when you piss, grab another beer, and re-heat the nacho cheese. The halftime show is for the people that go to SB parties and say "I'm just watching for the commercials".
