The Weeknd and Lana Del Rey - "THE ABYSS" - OUT NOW!

[dexter 2,484]

wow this is so good 

is the producer Mike Dean or someone else? 

 

I think this was recorded at the same time as all about Ethel (I have no proof to that claim just a gut feeling)

Totally. 

someone said in here once (I tended to disagree but now I’m like ehh maybe they’re right) that her falsetto is a little weaker and it could be age + vape-related. It’s complete speculation. I don’t know her and I’m not a doctor.

 

Someone else in this thread said that they prefer her singing in her lower register and I tend to agree - I am a huge fan of when she gets down into a lower range. I melt 🫠

 

regardless I think she sounds great still, and I’m gonna stream everything she makes 

I love the lower, thick register too. The opening lines of Radio. Oceans of melting honey.

Abel, Mike Dean, Metro Boomin and DeHeala produced the song.

And Genius notes Florence+TM on backing vocals in a song with Travis

That is Florence, confirmed by Albels team 

[littleredpartydress 49,906]

ok come on vocals..

 

at first I was like erm is this it but I like it

[paradisetropico 8,003]

it feels like i am bathing in her vocals. it’s HAUNTING. 

kinda reminds me of the lullaby she did at the Met Gala - it’s rare tbh we hear her sing like this with these beautiful synths 

[jaesana 4,207]

Now we need the tour song opener…. back to the top 

[honeymoon is alive 23,755]

abel just announced his 2025 tour, start the prayers for them to perform this song live

[HeadBitch 7,214]

Lmao, 00:00 until 03:18 gave cute-mix-of-melodies-intro for a Lana verse  like, his vocals blended with the instrumental a bit too much or something

[Mediumfrypls 8]

Her voice is so out of this world, I just wanted more

[Pink Flamingo 17,201]

Lana singing the second verse with the those beats would’ve killed me 

[vicdelrey 848]

she sounds like a siren, like an angel from the sky 

[Mer 64,095]

“The Abyss (feat. More Lana Del Rey)” when, Abel???

[blueskiesforever 316]

Didn’t like it much at first but now I’m 

[GeminiLanaFan 49,761]

I remember when he first started teasing The Abyss months ago and I loved this song already… it’s the one I preferred out of all the snippets or singles. But i was so tired this morning I didn’t even recognize that it was the same song. I was too excited for Lana’s part  Way to go, Abel, have Lana feature on your best song 

[Trash Magic 28,523]

Wow was surprised at the lines at the end, was expecting just vocalising throughout. For a non-credited appearance it was good!

 

The song is very middle of the road. He has made this exact song 35 times and is clearly in a creative rut. Like After Hours was good but it's diminishing returns can you come up with something else can you come up with something else

[Embach 48,432]

I hope he still collaborates with Lana when he starts going by Abel Tesfaye

[mlittle11 12,236]

wow her voice sounds kind of different but in such a lovely way. I dont keep up with the weeknd so I’m totally surprised by this!! she sounds incredible. I hope the vocals are similar on TRPWS

This def sounds like it was recorded in 2021. I mean this in the most neutral way possible but you can hear that she was plus-size when she sang this. It’s fierce
