It seems not too long after this post went up it began being reported that Wes Craven has sadly died today at age 76. You can watch the music video right here below,but I find just the music itself is better: For these reasons I find, "The Hills," to be a fascinating mixture of genres, tones, and otherwise a great listen. Setting aside questions of if Abel is trying to share his emotional hurt with us listeners or is engaging in some crass commercial exploitation by via putting forth his own personal life for us to pick-over yet simultaneously stating people who do so should be embarrassed (so, having his cake and eating it too, possibly) it still is an amazingly raw song, and one that illustrates all sheer terror of love. Therefore, it seems there is an awful lot of uncomfortable autobiography in the song, with Abel having discussed his drug issues previously too, and now apparently touching on an affair between Grande and himself. There apparently have been numerous rumors that Abel and the aforementioned Ariana Grande were secretly having an affair and this allegedly lead to her break-up with now-ex Big Sean. One area where this gets even more interesting is that the song does not seem to be a wholly-fictional piece. his feelings for this woman-because there is not only the risk of her rejecting him, but what everyone else will think, not to mention her man's inevitable anger. The heavy thumping bass and occasional surreal shriek-sound create an ominous tone not unlike that of a horror movie, and Abel's basically admitting just how scared he is for everything to come to light-e.g. Here Abel is of course referring to such, "Evil," entities as the media, nosy neighbors, and etc. The weeknd the hills movie#
"The Hills Have Eyes" was of course itself a horror movie by Wes Craven made in 1977 (let's ignore the awful 2006 remake) with one big element being that people are being watched by evil forces. Then there is the element of how, "The hills have eyes," as he repeats in the bridge toward the end of the song. The scary part is how as the lyrics mention that the drugs are at a point where he does so many it this point its like, "Decaf," coffee, she's fed up with his calls, "Half-past five," in the morning, and it seems she herself is possibly tired of having to, "Hide your lies". We feel so much anxiety, worry a lot, and otherwise have a fear of either losing the person we love through them doing something foolish ("Why did you cheat on me?") or our own actions ("Um, so, I cheated on you.") Therefore, that makes it wonderful that an artist known as The Weeknd (real name: Abel Tesfaye) has turned in a song that is arguably a horror-romance masterpiece. It's odd because there is rarely something as terrifying as being in love. Sure, in scary movies there will be the horny barely-legal teens trying to get it on before the psycho-killer interrupts them mid-coitus, but when was the last time we got a true mixture of romance and fear (seriously, I don't know)? Two genres that seem to almost never intermingle however are romance and horror.
Songs do this too, often telling stories of adventure, love, and the like. We will read a book that is romantic and also historical fiction, or see a film that combines political intrigue with a good dose of action-filled explosions. You'll get a dramatic movie that is also sci-fi, or a horror-comedy.
