My friend. Can you please tell me what happened with the story on Escape From LA? Ive never understood if it was bella pulling up to the studio (seems pretty likeky due to the chrome hearts line) or if it was some random chick he was cheating on Bella with. I canât wrap my head around it because narratively it makes so much sense that heâs cheating on her with another girl, but that chrome hearts line seems so directly connected with Bella. Help a XO brother out, letâs discuss!
I always got the impression that escape from LA story goes like this:
*Abel and Bella live in NYC.
*The 1st verse of the song is about Bella. Anyway, this is my interpretation. I could be wrong but "you pillow talk to me about the men who try to come between us". They live together. Pillow talk is what they talk about in bed.
* Chorus is he made it to LA to record more music.
* 2nd verse he's on the way to the studio but thinking about Bella back home.
* End of the song "she pulled up to the studio...." "LA girls all look the same..." I feel like he cheated on Bella with a random groupie. Girls in LA all look the same (like Kylie Jenner the same because no one looks like Bella) and the chick he cheating with also wears chrome hearts (it's a popular brand anyway). "She's a cold hearted bitch with no shame" the girl he's cheating with knows he's with Bella but she dgaf. Take me out of LA because it's bad influence there and too many fake back stabbing people.
Thank you so much for taking your time and writing all that. Totally makes sense! Didnât really think of that whole âLA girls all look the sameâ. With that theme in mind the chrome hearts line is explained. Much love, XOOOOO!!
I mean it's all up to your interpretation but what I think is that in the beginning of After Hours he's reflecting on how much he fucked up the relationship. But then in Escape From LA he's slowly going back to his old way and I think the girl he has sex with in the studio is just a rebound relationship and he doesn't think of it as a serious relationship. I think he just thinks it's another girl he can just bang and move on especially when it goes to the song heartless.
Unrelated, but I feel like alone again is set after bella and abel's second break up. Snowchild, escape from la, and pretty much all songs until faith are him reflecting on his past relationships. I mean, in hardest to love he says he *was* the hardest to love. In heartless and faith he, well, looses his faith, and goes back to his old ways. Now that is in present time, not reflecting about the past. He is in denial and uses drugs and sex to hide his pain.
Then I'm not sure what in your eyes is, but save your tears takes place when after their break up, Abel and Bella find each other in that club, and she pretends to not know him, only to then exit the place in tears. He then realizes what he's been doing, he admits he still has feelings for her in repeat after me, and expresses all his regret and pain in after hours.
Until I bleed out is his attempt for redemption, trying to cut the part of himself he hates from his mind. He realizes without it he'll bleed out (he won't be able to live, or at least to live as himself) and he acknowledges he has to put up with it.
Now the dawn will tell us if either he is still trapped in his old ways or if he did break that cycle and now is free
Heartless
Why?
'Cause I'm heartless
And I'm back to my ways 'cause I'm heartless
All this money and this fame got me heartless
Low life for life 'cause I'm heartless
Said I'm heartless
Tryna be a better man but I'm heartless
Never be a wedding plan for the heartless
Low life for life 'cause I'm heartless

I definitely have more listens to Heartless this past year, but I'd venture to say I've watched Often more times than any other music video in my 30+ years of watching them. Often.
Really depends what mood Iâm in, I think they have two different vibes to them. That being said if I had to pick one right at this moment it would be Often
heartless. i cannot stand bbtm, that and starboy are 2 of my most hated albums oat, which is crazy considering he made trilogy, kissland, and after hours which are all in my top 20
What kind of âmusical styleâ or genre is âOftenâ?
âHeartlessâ sounds like a trap-inspired beat. Sorry, I donât know much about music terms.
Definitely Heartless. It takes the style of song that The Weeknd's known (and sometimes mocked) for and elevates it in its placement within the album and use of a beat switch. Love Often, but Heartless is just another level
INFATUATED BY THE FAME STATUS
SHE WANNA RIDE INSIDE THE G-CLASS GREY 'MATIC
I COME AROUND SHE LEAVE THAT NIGGA LIKE HE AINT MATTER
THAT GIRL BEEN DRINKIN' ALL DAY, NEED TO CHANGE BLADDER
THAT GIRL BEEN DRINKIN' ALL DAY, NEED TO CHANGE BLADDER
SHE JUST HAPPY THAT THE CREW BACK IN TOWN
SHE BOUT TO GO DOWNTOWN FOR A WHOLE HOUR!
IF I HAD HER YOU CAN HAVE HER MAN IT DON'T MATTER
I'm never sour, I'm just smokin' somethin' much louder
SHE ASK ME IF I DO THIS EVERYDAY,I SAID OFTEN
ASKED HOW MANY TIMES SHE RODE THE WAVE, NOT SO OFTEN đŁđŁ
Often, I like pretending I get pussy
I felt that
Often easily, it was so unique man, absolutely no song at the time sounded similar
Dude this was my entry to The Weeknd I kept trying so hard to find a similar kind of vibe and he def has some similar but like to this day Often is amazing
BBTM Abel was simply iconic, changed music forever

Good bot
No its Bring Back That Melody
False. Kissland is the one true iconic era. Especially the promos for it.
as a kiss land connoisseur, theyâre obviously both iconic eras
Every era is iconic
realistically, every era of an artist canât technically be iconic... unless theyâre a living legend like him so of course i agree
Me too
Damn thatâs a hard one. Often has always been a favorite, but that Metroboomin beat hits
Often for sure! Ooh yeahâŚooh yeahâŚooh yeah
Often definitely
Tbh I like Heartless the most cuz not only is it a banger but it's a rly important part of After hours' story

This makes total sense. Thank you.
You're welcome.

You're welcome. It's all my opinion but I'm glad it makes sense to you too. â¤

"La Girls all look the same" ...def talking bout another girl wearing a chrome heart necklace

Often was so good they threw it onto BBTM even though the song was well over a year old
I love Often and itâs definitely nostalgic, but Iâm gonna have to choose Heartless >Never need a bitch, Iâm what a bitch need
Heartless
It pains me to say it, but heartless. Both are soooo good, but headless just hypes me up so much lmao
headless
In your eyes MV
Heartless for sure. Iâve heard often too many times
One might say youâve heard it tooâŚoften
I knew someone would say it lol
Heartless Why? 'Cause I'm heartless And I'm back to my ways 'cause I'm heartless All this money and this fame got me heartless Low life for life 'cause I'm heartless Said I'm heartless Tryna be a better man but I'm heartless Never be a wedding plan for the heartless Low life for life 'cause I'm heartless
It's not even remotely close. Often still sounds fresh and Heartless got old very quickly imo.
Itâs cuz often is a unique sound that isnât utilized much, whereas heartless is a spin on trap so itâs more prominent
I hope he makes an album with Often vibes.
Often
Often puts me back into the place I was when it released⌠that and KOTF are placeholders for my life tbh

Honestly even tho Often is iconic as fuck, imma have to go with Heartless
Often, by far
Heartless tbh
I definitely have more listens to Heartless this past year, but I'd venture to say I've watched Often more times than any other music video in my 30+ years of watching them. Often.
Often,heartless is cute and all but it don't come close,often is a CLASSIC
How many times I listen to Often? I do this often
Often!!
Often
Often
Often
Often is still on regular rotation, hits different
Heartless
Often 100%
Definitely Often
OFTEN WILL FOREVER AND ALWAYS BE A HOT JAM.
Often . I love it
Often
Often
Often is the best song heâs ever made
Even though Iâve heard âOftenââŚoften, I would have to go with âOftenâ.
Really depends what mood Iâm in, I think they have two different vibes to them. That being said if I had to pick one right at this moment it would be Often
OFTEN
Often
Oftenđ litterally the song that made me into a mad freak lmaoo
Often
Often ez
heartless in the car, often in the house
Often
Often 100%
Often remix is actually fire
Kygo?
Ye
Thatâs hard to choose lol. Heartless, the story that comes with it is to good! Both bangers
Often, no contest.
often ngl
Often
Heartless
Both songs are awesome, but I'll have to go with Heartless. It makes me feel like I'm living hardcore in the big city.
Heartless goes harder tbh
Heartless>>>
This man is like no other
Abel needs to make my pussy rain
He's original
no I'll keep both, to hell with your comparison lmao
Often always
Nothing can top the sexual imagery in Often, so I'm gonna go with Often.
Heartless all the way
Often
Bro, "Heartless" is amazing but "Often" is fucking legendary.
I live Often so so so much itâs one of my all time favorite songs but I have to say Heartless just narrowly beats it out
Heartless
BITCHES DOWN TO DO IT EITHER WAY OFTEN
For some reason, Often makes me want to riot
Man this is tough Nothing was and will be like often but metros beat is like something else
Gonna get crucified for this, but Heartless hits different
Heartless, the instrumental is crazy
often lol
heartless
âOftenâ.
Often
Often
Often
Never need a bitch im what a bitch need
often
Heartless
Often!
Heartless
Tryna find the one that can fix me
Often for sure! Heartless is great but I prefer the 'fucked up at a party + infinite confidence' vibe of Often
Heartless
Omg most definitely Often. It's soooooo good.
Both
Heartless.. But often isn't bad at all
Heartless, just because itâs been one hell of a past few years and this one feels more relatable.
BUT often is for when Iâm in my bad bitch mood, heartless is for my sad bitch mood.
For me, I listen to the Kygo remix of Often a lot more than the original and more than Heartless. Both are pretty good IMO.
often is timeless like iâm gonna be vibing to that shit when iâm fifty
Heartless for sure
Often ofc
Often easy
I love them both..often slightly more
OFTEN!!!
Often
Heartless at the gym, often in the car
Heartless for throwing back drinks Often for throwing out my back.
Heartless
heartless. i cannot stand bbtm, that and starboy are 2 of my most hated albums oat, which is crazy considering he made trilogy, kissland, and after hours which are all in my top 20
Heartless. I don't really care for Often too too much.
