«Blinding Lights» es una canción del cantautor canadiense the Weeknd. Fue lanzada el 29 de noviembre de 2019, a través de XO y Republic Records, como el segundo sencillo de su cuarto álbum de estudio, After Hours (2020).[1]​ La canción fue escrita y producida por The Weeknd, Max Martin y Oscar Holter, y los músicos canadienses Belly y DaHeala recibieron créditos adicionales.[2]​[3]​

En Estados Unidos, "Blinding Lights" ocupó el primer puesto de la lista Billboard Hot 100 durante cuatro semanas y batió un nuevo récord al ser la canción que más semanas estuvo en el top 5 y en el top 10, así como la primera canción de la historia que se mantuvo en el top 10 de la lista durante todo un año.[4]​[5]​ También es la canción que más tiempo ha permanecido en el Hot 100 de todos los tiempos, con 90 semanas, terminando la semana del 11 de septiembre de 2021.[6]​[7]​ La canción terminó el año 2020 como la canción más grande del Billboard Hot 100 del año.[8]​ La canción también alcanzó el número uno en el Canadian Hot 100, dando a Weeknd su quinto número uno en la lista. También ha encabezado las listas de éxitos en el Reino Unido y en otros 36 países. El 23 de noviembre de 2021, fue clasificada como el número 1 del Hot 100 de todos los tiempos por Billboard.[9]​

El single más exitoso de The Weeknd en todo el mundo hasta la fecha,[10]​[11]​ «Blinding Lights» fue el single de mayor rendimiento mundial de 2020, con 2.720 millones de flujos de suscripción equivalentes en todo el mundo, según la Federación Internacional de la Industria Fonográfica (IFPI).[12]​ También fue el octavo sencillo mundial con mejor rendimiento de 2021, con 1.610 millones de flujos de suscripción equivalentes.[13]​ La canción fue la cuarta más reproducida de 2021 en el Reino Unido.[14]​

En Spotify, fue la canción más seguida de 2020 con casi 1.600 millones de streams,[15]​ y es la segunda canción más reproducida de todos los tiempos en la plataforma, siendo la más rápida de la historia en alcanzar el hito de los dos mil millones de streams en Spotify.[16]​ "Blinding Lights" cuenta con tres remezclas oficiales: una del grupo electrónico Chromatics, otra del grupo de EDM, Major Lazer y otra de la cantautora Rosalía.[17]​[18]​[19]​

Antecedentes y promoción[editar]

Después de una pausa de cinco meses en las redes sociales, el cantautor regresó a Instagram el 20 de noviembre de 2019 y publicó seis días después, el 26 de noviembre de 2019. Anteriormente había anunciado un proyecto denominado Capítulo VI en junio de 2019.[20]​ El 24 de noviembre de 2019, un anuncio de Mercedes-Benz se emitió por primera vez en la televisión alemana con un clip de "Blinding Lights".[21]​Muestra a The Weeknd conduciendo un SUV Mercedes-Benz EQC y pidiendo al sistema que reproduzca su nueva canción. La versión completa del anuncio se estrenó el 29 de noviembre, junto con el sencillo.[22]​ En los días posteriores, acudió a las redes sociales para anunciar su regreso a la música con las leyendas "«a caída comienza mañana por la noche"»y "«Esta noche comenzamos un nuevo capítulo psicótico que derrite el cerebro! Vamos!»[23]​

Durante una entrevista realizada por Jem Aswad de la revista Variety, The Weeknd habló de su experiencia de trabajar con el compositor y productor sueco Max Martin, diciendo: «Max y yo nos hemos convertido literalmente en los mejores amigos, pero no hago eso con mucha gente. No es que no pueda, pero una colaboración es una relación, es como un matrimonio, tienes que construirla».[24]​ En una entrevista con Billboard, The Weeknd expresó su aprecio por la música de los años 80: «Siempre he sentido admiración por la época anterior a mi nacimiento. Ya se puede escuchar en mi primera mixtape que los 80 (Siouxsie and the Banshees, Cocteau Twins) juegan un papel muy importante en mi sonido. A veces me ayuda a crear un nuevo sonido y otras veces es simplemente obvio. Me alegro de que al mundo le guste ahora».[25]​

Letras y composición[editar]

A lo largo de la canción, The Weeknd canta sobre la reanudación de una relación y la importancia de su pareja. El cantante también menciona la ciudad de Las Vegas, Nevada, a la que se refiere por su apodo "Sin City" en el preestribillo.[26]​ The Weeknd dio una pequeña idea de lo que trata su éxito. «"Blinding Lights" [trata] de cómo quieres ver a alguien por la noche, y estás intoxicado, y estás conduciendo hacia esa persona y simplemente estás cegado por las luces de la calle", explica en el perfil. "Pero nada puede impedirte ir a ver a esa persona, porque te sientes muy solo. No quiero promover nunca la conducción bajo los efectos del alcohol, pero ese es el trasfondo oscuro".[27]​

The song is written in the key of F Dorian[28]​ with a tempo of 171 beats per minute. The Weeknd's vocal range spans from the low note of F3 to the high note of C5. From its scale-laddering verses to its tension-filled chorus, the song exhibits the polish and "melodic math" for which Max Martin is renowned, according to Chris Molanphy from Slate.[29]​ The Dorian structure provides a dreamy and euphoric nature to the song while still ultimately resolving to a minor chord. Exclusively in the music video, the song temporarily modulates to Eb Dorian as the beats per minute drops for 3 and a half measures.

Billboard staff writer Frank DiGiacomo assessed its qualities, "The opening drumbeat is a DeLorean back to Michael Jackson's 'Beat It'. The amphetamine synth conjures fond memories of leopard-print-era Rod Stewart's 'Young Turks' — or maybe that other guy with the avian hairdo, Mike Score from A Flock of Seagulls? And isn't that spooky B-movie organ from Rockwell's 'Somebody's Watching Me'? Abel Tesfaye's Drambuie-drenched vocals bathe you in euphoria as you bop around your home in an N-95 mask, punching your fist to the 'Hey!-Hey!-Hey!''s, making a magical and much-needed tonic for troubled times".[30]​

Audio engineer Serban Ghenea says he loved working on the Weeknd's crisp-sounding "Blinding Lights". "It was crossing two worlds to make something new that fits today, sonically. The older folks like it because it's a throwback, and then the kids love it because it's a new thing that they never heard before."[31]​

Critical reception[editar]

"Blinding Lights" received universal acclaim from critics.[32]​[33]​[34]​[35]​ It was named one of the best songs of 2020 by Billboard and the best song of 2020 by Consequence of Sound; the former highlighted its nostalgic appeal,[36]​ and the latter praised its "melodic romance waxed over a blockbuster riff".[37]​ Variety magazine named "Blinding Lights" the Record of the Year: "The Weeknd's 'Blinding Lights' is indisputably one of the landmark songs of 2020. The piece has a crystalline synth hook straight out of 1985. The record has come to symbolize strength and triumphing over adversity."[38]​ "Blinding Lights" was named one of the best songs of 2019 by Stereogum, where editor Chris DeVille complimented the song's '80s aesthetic and vibe, saying that "the '80s will never die—or, at least, the glamorous neon '80s of our collective imagination".[39]​

Rolling Stone columnist Kory Grow named "Blinding Lights" one of the best songs of 2020: "With fuzzy synths and hopscotching drum-machine line, 'Blinding Lights' is the best new wave song this side of Duran Duran. In just three minutes, the Weeknd checks off any number of Eighties pop-song signposts—unanswered phone calls, driving fast just to feel something, lights representing loneliness—but the real magic is how his voice and the song's chiming keyboard line lingers in your head well after he injects new life into the greatest Eighties-steeped lyrical cliché of them all: 'I can't sleep until I feel your touch,'" and editor Jon Dolan praised the "europhile synth-pop-steeped" production, "Blinding Lights" evokes Depeche Mode and the Human League in its lonely-planet luster.[40]​[41]​ David Smyth of Evening Standard also praised the song, calling it a "glorious blast of air punching Eighties synth-pop".[42]​ Micah Peters from The Ringer selected it as one of the best on the album.[43]​ The New York Times journalist Lindsay Zoladz named "Blinding Lights" one of the best songs of 2020: "It's a propulsive, modernized bit of '80s pastiche. It's always a blessing when the year's most overplayed pop song happens to be one you wouldn't mind hearing a billion and one times anyway," and editor Jon Caramanica added that "'Blinding Lights' is a sterling song that evokes both an idyllic future and triggers aural sense memories of mega-pop's glory years. 'Blinding Lights' could have been lifted from a found Jazzercise tape from 1986, though the chilly synths have a slightly sinister tinge [and] says a lot about the durability of the Weeknd's early noir—the full commitment to the louche aesthetic he embodied—that even the raging centrist popularity of 'Blinding Lights' can't disinter it."[34]​[44]​[45]​

Ben Beaumont-Thomas of The Guardian named "Blinding Lights" one of the best songs of 2020: "It's a titanic pop production from backroom genius Max Martin, who seems to pay homage to his fellow Scandinavians a-ha with the peppy gated drums. Abel Tesfaye himself shows he can slip between genres casually as he does the lovers in his songs, notching up another wedding disco classic."[33]​ When describing the Weeknd's ode to '80s music, Nick Levine of BBC News named "Blinding Lights" one of the best songs of 2020: "Co-written and co-produced with Swedish songwriting genius Max Martin, its synth-pop shimmer manages to feel retro and contemporary at the same time—a tricky thing to pull off. Still, the key to its enduring popularity could lie in its ambiguity. Though 'Blinding Lights'' explosive chorus is one of the year's most familiar and uplifting, there's a dash of darkness baked in that keeps things interesting."[46]​ Editor Makael Wood from Los Angeles Times named "Blinding Lights" one of the best songs of 2020: "The Weeknd's throwback synth-pop smash was so ubiquitous this year that you couldn't avoid hearing it even when you weren't going anywhere. One aspect that kept it from wearing out its welcome: a crisp tempo just a few ticks faster than you're always expecting."[47]​

Grammys controversy[editar]

Despite having a successful year in 2020 with the critical and commercial success of "Blinding Lights" and its parent album, the Weeknd received zero nominations at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards on November 24, 2020. The gesture spawned much controversy and was a shock to critics, fans, and Tesfaye himself. He responded via social media calling the Grammys "corrupt" in popular social media posts.[84]​ Speculation arose that the announcement of his upcoming Super Bowl performance, as well as the confusion as to whether he should be nominated as pop or R&B, contributed to the snubs in all the categories that he was submitted to.[85]​ Harvey Mason Jr., interim president of the Recording Academy, responded to the backlash by saying:

We understand that The Weeknd is disappointed at not being nominated. I was surprised and can empathize with what he's feeling. His music this year was excellent, and his contributions to the music community and broader world are worthy of everyone's admiration. We were thrilled when we found out he would be performing at the upcoming Super Bowl and we would have loved to have him also perform on the Grammy stage the weekend before. Unfortunately, every year, there are fewer nominations than the number of deserving artists. But as the only peer-voted music award, we will continue to recognize and celebrate excellence in music while shining a light on the many amazing artists that make up our global community. To be clear, voting in all categories ended well before The Weeknd's performance at the Super Bowl was announced, so in no way could it have affected the nomination process. All Grammy nominees are recognized by the voting body for their excellence, and we congratulate them all.[86]​

The Weeknd later made a statement addressing the infamous snub in January 2021, where he said that it felt like "an attack", saying "Look, I personally don't care anymore. I have three GRAMMYs (sic), which mean nothing to me now, obviously...It's not like, 'Oh, I want the GRAMMY!' It's just that this happened, and I'm down to get in front of the fire, as long as it never happens again. I suck at giving speeches anyways. Forget awards shows."[87]​

Music video[editar]

Development[editar]

The music video for "Blinding Lights" was directed by Anton Tammi, assisted by Kenneth Taylor, and filmed in Fremont Street, Las Vegas and Downtown Los Angeles, during a four-day shooting that took place until 6 AM every day.[151]​[152]​[153]​ It was produced by Sarah Parker and executive produced by Saskia Whinney for Somesuch, with production design by Adam William Wilson. Olliver Millar served as the director of photography, assisted by Devin "Daddy" Karringten on the second unit, Niels Lindelien on the steadicam operation, Nizzar Najm on the gaffer and Marlow Nunez on the key grip.[153]​ The video was edited by Janne Vartia and Tim Montana, and included VFX by Mathematic, post production surpervision by Alec Ernest, color by Nicke Jacobsson, sound design by Akseli Soini, title design by Aleksi Tammi and 3D effects by Oscar Böckerman.[153]​

During the filming for the street scenes, the roads were not completely shut down, so random cars and pedestrians were passing by while the Weeknd danced in the street. Production was held up temporarily when somebody was arrested in the tunnel.[152]​ The shooting required at least three vehicles driving through the nighttime streets. The Mercedes-AMG GT roadster was a specially equipped towed vehicle that allowed the Weeknd to act and lip-sync inside the moving convertible without needing to drive, and a chase SUV with a crane camera strapped to the top.[154]​ Director of photography Oliver Millar said that he loves the music video format and talked about how intense it is to try and create iconic images during high-pressure shoots that don't last very long.[154]​ He said that since the Weeknd's previous videos had a dark and gritty vibe, he used generators powering banks of LED lights and a Sony Venice full-frame digital motion picture camera system to try to re-create the look, ending up with the video's vintage, 1980s style.[152]​

Release and synopsis[editar]

On December 2, 2019, a commercial video containing footage from the Weeknd and Mercedes-Benz commercial, and the song's audio video, was released.[155]​ The lyric video for "Blinding Lights" was released on December 6, 2019.[156]​ Its official music video was released on January 21, 2020.[157]​ A behind-the-scenes music video for the song was released on February 28, 2020.[152]​ On May 5, 2020, a music video for the Chromatics remix of the song was released.[158]​

The video follows the After Hours videos sequence, starting where the "Heartless" premise ended, and presents the Weeknd as a lonely and psychotic guy walking and driving with no destination around the streets in Las Vegas, and a passing resemblance to jazz musician Herbie Hancock, circa 1978's Sunlight.[159]​ The singer sports the same garb as the previous video, adopted for the album promotion, with a red suit, specific hairstyle, mustache and sunglasses.[159]​ The visual opens with the Weeknd laughing as blood drips down his face, then jumps back in time to show the mayhem that led to his gruesome end — the pop star speeding around a deserted city, dancing gleefully in the streets.[159]​ The visual follows the events of the music video for "Heartless" and sees the Weeknd go on a hallucinated joyride after waking from a trance. It concludes with the Weeknd having flashbacks to a club he attended earlier in the night, where he was serenaded by a mysterious woman, played by Japanese actress Miki Hamano and beat up by a duo of bouncers, uncredited, who had forced him to go on the run.[160]​ The video depicts the singer amid a story inspired by the films Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Joker, and Casino.[161]​

Reception[editar]

Chase Ichiki from Revolt spoke highly of the music video, sharing that "the Weeknd crafts a world fans have eagerly waited for. Donning his staple red suit, he showcases his acting abilities in his latest video. Beginning with him hysterically laughing in a borderline psychotic way, we then see the Weeknd dance the pain away while wandering the city".[162]​ Michael Cube from Nylon magazine wrote that "the video for "Blinding Lights" is appropriately cryptic for the famously elusive artist", and praised the presentation's alluring mystique.[163]​ HITC columnist Christopher Weston assessed the film as "a burst of neon perfectly complimenting the gorgeous electronic sound. The 'Blinding Lights' visual accompaniment is one of the most stylish videos we've seen, packed with color, fast cars, nocturnal cityscapes and luxurious locations."[164]​ Insider editor Callie Ahlgrim praised the visual, 'Blinding Lights' embodies everything that's made the Weeknd's newest era so successful. The video maintains his mysterious, slightly menacing aura — yet manages to create a cinematic, retro, exhilarating experience that's unlike anything he's done before".[165]​ Bianca Gracie from Vulture named the music video one of the best of 2020: "It's a wild mix of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Casino, and Joker that only Abel could pull off".[166]​ USA Today editor Gary Dinges named the visual one of the best of 2020.[167]​ The clip was nominated for six MTV Video Music Awards, and won two including Best R&B Video & Video of the Year.[168]​ The visual was nominated for four UK Music Video Awards, and won Best Pop Video – International.[99]​

Live performances[editar]

The Weeknd performed "Blinding Lights" for the first time on December 6, 2019, during The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, a day after he performed "Heartless" on the same show.[169]​ He brought a neon-lit cube with mirrored walls to the stage to sing through his brand new single. Filmed in black and white and from different perspectives on the stage, the Weeknd made the most of his mirror-cube before stepping outside of it to face the crowd.[170]​ They sang the chorus of the track back to him, and some members of the audience raised mirrors of their own to flash The Weeknd's glow right back on him.[171]​

The song was performed on January 22, 2020, at Jimmy Kimmel Live!.[172]​ The performance picked up right where the "Blinding Lights" visual left off, as the Weeknd remained in the red suit and his face was still bloodied with a bandage over his nose from the beatdown he vaguely remembered in the music video. He bounced around the stage for the lively performance, as thunderbolts and lightning strikes at his back filled the darkness in the venue.[173]​ Appearing once again in a red suit, black gloves and bloody-faced with a bandage over his nose, he performed the single alongside "Scared to Live" on Saturday Night Live on March 7, 2020.[174]​

"Blinding Lights" received a special performance during The Weeknd Experience, an augmented reality, interactive livestream held on TikTok on August 7, 2020. It featured 3D visuals and several interactive components, including virtual back-up dancers appearing behind the Weeknd, who also traveled through hyperspace in a red convertible, surrounded by lasers in the virtual world.[175]​ The Weeknd kicked off the 2020 MTV Video Music Awards with "Blinding Lights", described in advance as a "keyed-up, dazzling" showcase. He performed a rooftop version of his hit single from the observation deck at 30 Hudson Yards in Manhattan, New York City, complete with a background of fireworks.[176]​

The single was also performed live in the 2020 Time 100 primetime event and the Z100 Jingle Ball of 2020.[177]​

The Weeknd performed "Blinding Lights" as the closing track for the Super Bowl LV halftime show.[178]​ On the field, he was surrounded by hundreds of the Weeknd-alike dancers. In the beginning, he moved with them in lock step. But as the song swelled, and the dancers began to swarm in odd patterns, the Weeknd moved in his own rhythm, holding the camera's gaze, alone amid the chaos.[179]​

Other versions[editar]

Remixes[editar]

The song's first official remix features vocals from Chromatics and is included in the original deluxe edition of After Hours and the remix EP After Hours (Remixes).[17]​ A second official remix by Major Lazer was released on April 15, 2020.[18]​ An unofficial remix by W&W was released on July 2, 2020.[180]​ A third official remix with Rosalía was released on December 4, 2020.[181]​

Rosalía remix[editar]

A remix of the song featuring Spanish singer and songwriter Rosalía was released on December 4, 2020, six hours after its announcement to celebrate the first year since the release of the solo version of the song, which was named "the best-selling song of the year" by Billboard the day before.[182]​[8]​ A lyric video featuring behind-the-scenes footage of the single's photoshoot was released the same day.

Starting from October, both artists started to comment on each other's social media posts. In November, some insiders reported that a "Save Your Tears" remix featuring the Spanish singer would be released on the 20th.[183]​ This, however, never happened. However, on December 1, another insider reported that a duet version of "Blinding Lights" would be released on December 4. Both artists shared a picture of them on set a couple hours prior to the single's release without specifying the project.[184]​

Cover versions[editar]

YouTube metal cover artist, Leo Moracchioli, released a version in April 2020 playing all instruments and the vocals himself. On July 1, 2020, quintet vocalist group Pentatonix released a video for their rendition of "Blinding Lights." In the clip, the group is seen in their respective homes.[185]​ On July 3, 2020, Christine and the Queens released her studio cover of "Blinding Lights". "Her version is an emotive yet airy rendition. The artist's pillowy voice glides effortlessly no matter the heights", Consequence of Sound editor Lake Schatz stated.[186]​ On August 21, 2020, Rainych Ran released a video for her rendition of "Blinding Lights" in Japanese version. Her Japanese version cover of "Blinding Lights" was earned praise by The Weeknd himself on his SNS.[187]​[188]​[189]​ In September 2020, London Grammar covered "Blinding Lights" at the BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge, backed by piano and guitar players.[190]​

In January 2021 a bilingual (Welsh and Irish) version of Blinding Lights was released by Urdd Gobaith Cymru and TG Lurgan, 'Golau'n Dallu / Dallta ag na Soilse'. The project was hailed by First Minister of Wales Mark Drakeford as a "symbol of the cultural ties that bind Ireland and Wales".[191]​[192]​

American rock band All Time Low released a pop punk cover on June 6, 2022.

Saint Asonia version[editar]

"Blinding Lights" was recorded by Canadian-American rock supergroup Saint Asonia. It was released on November 18, 2021 as a promotional single for their EP Introvert.[193]​

Background[editar]

Lead singer Adam Gontier spoke about covering the song with Loudwire.

"It's always interesting deciding on a song to cover. In this case, I just wanted to do something that people wouldn't necessarily expect. It was fun to give it our flavor, and add our style to it. We're all pumped with how it turned out. It hits hard.[194]​
