The Weeknd has unveiled an 18-song collection, The Highlights, in advance of his upcoming Super Bowl halftime performance.
The “Blinding Lights” singer will take the stage at the Super Bowl LV showdown between Tampa Bay and Kansas City on Feb. 7 at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida and the specially curated collection is an introduction to some of his career highlights for the gigantic audience that typically tunes in to the biggest annual TV broadcast.
But before then, he’s offering fans the chance to order a copy of his hits comp, which features such beloved songs as “In Your Eyes,” “Can’t Feel My Face,” “Starboy,” “Heartless,” “Die For You,” “Love Me Harder” and “Wicked Games,” among others; the singer’s site says the CD version will ship in the next two or three weeks. According to XO/Republic Records, the project will be available on Feb. 5.
The Weeknd’s career deserved a best of. Shortly after the release and the worldwide success of After Hours in 2020, and without a doubt one of his best projects, The Highlights is a synthesis of ten years of music, ten years spent defining modern pop. So, let’s say it right away, there are no surprises here in terms of the track list. We find The Weeknd’s hits, including the latest phenomenon, Blinding Lights, but also I Feel it Coming , a duet with Daft Punk, or The Hills, which truly transformed him into a global pop star in 2016. With no new material, this Greatest Hits allows you to retrace the Canadian’s discography, but also to make some detours through projects other than his albums, in particular thanks to Earned It from the soundtrack to the film 50 Shades of Grey, to Pray For Me from Black Panther, or Love Me Harder, featuring Ariana Grande and released on the album My Everything by the latter in 2014. – Brice Miclet
