Eros is the sort of love that comes purely with sexual attraction. Philia, to them, was the sort of love that came with friendship. The ancient Greeks, those slave-owning and sculpture loving elitist democrats, identified several sorts of love. Indulgence in love is what this is, in the end?! Love?! WTF! Love is not this! Love is commitment! Love is caring for a sick one! The truth about love is that we’ve had millions of definitions for it. Folks like myself, who cannot attempt to live this sort of rhythm if not for it in song. This brand of love is grand love, beautiful love, la grande belleza, to folks like myself who cannot afford to indulge in everyday numbing from romantic love. They sell a brand of love that hinges on both untypical and engaged masculinity and femininity, the sort to invest themselves completely in romance as an aristocrat ( Game of Partyfoam) would, like Romeo or Juliet, and as few can in a capitalist and industrialized society. In the end, his songs are love songs and have always been.
It’s hard for me to communicate the thoughts that I hold I’m findin’ ways to articulate the feeling I’m goin’ through His songs numb, thrill, and dance, as exercises in identity, or ID as Vice’s fashion magazine titles itself. Every single one of The Weeknd releases, from his mixtapes to his albums, have been magnetic for a large audience.
Be careful, this, boys and girls, is much more potent, dank, than traditional balladry.
