    "Sidewalks" is my least-favourite too, mainly because of the atrocious and, IMO, unnecessary, Auto-Tune, but also because I'm not a fan of Kendrick's verse. His guest spots on pop songs have always been trash, in contrast to his own music where he's pretty good.

    Have you listened to The Weeknd's previous works? His discography's pretty extensive, it can seem pretty intimidating to new listeners for that reason

    All I Know and Nothing Without You have grown on me a lot.

    I'm looking forward to seeing The Weeknd (and Bryson Tiller) live on the Legend of The Fall Tour in March! :oface:

    Not quite. I gave a shot to Beauty Behind the Madness but I haven't paid enough attention when listening. Got distracted everytime and just settled with CFMF, The Hills and In The Night.

    I should give it another shot.

    I like "All I Know" less now than I did last month, but "Nothing Without You" is slowly growing on me. I'm liking the title track a little more now too - I hear it at least once a day 'cause of the radio while I'm working ("I Feel It Coming" is getting a roughly equal number of of plays) but I don't know if that has anything to do with it.

    I basically like the first four tracks on the album a lot, maybe "Rockin'" as well, and the rest are okay to me except for "Sidewalks" and "True Colors", which are my least-favourites.
    You might get to see them do "Rambo", which I'd be really envious about
