It was probably because The Weeknd was obviously tryna to make a song that sounded like 70s disco which I thought he did good a good job at.

​@@THECAR99Yeah Take my breath is more early 80's post-disco

Synths and 80’s is what keeps The Weeknd everlasting that’s is fountain of youth we all love that era

The Weeknd put that Cerrone song on his Apple Music radio show when he released “Take My Breath”, so yeah he was definitely inspired but he played the original for his fans, as well as other disco songs, on that show to show where he got the inspiration from. He went for that sound and he nailed it

i was about to comment this.. i remember hearing this Cerrone song on Momento mori around same time take my breath came out. also a lot of sebastian tellier was played leading up to take my breath and dawn fm which has similar bass lines and synths

Nah bruh. The Weeknd a GOAT

It’s funny because I immediately think “Eye of the Tiger” every time it comes on, especially with the new extended intro on the album version that comes in off the blended transition from “How Do I Make You Love Me”

Now I read comments and see you said same. Eye of tiger/ rocky theme. That guitar is distinct to our ears..

They sample everything from older songs. While you tripping, that disco version sound mad hot 🔥

Outstanding! It's been bothering me all week trying to recall what "Take Me Breath" kept making me think of. You've put my mind to rest. Thank you.

Creativity is free and music, like anything else in this universe, it can only be discovered, not created. Just because someone discovered similar sounds before doesn't make it theirs, copyright claiming is only a scam to make money. So no The Weeknd didn't steal anything.

Abel samples from bands and artists all the time. It's not stealing and essentially every artist has sampled from other artists prior lmao

So basically they just used the beat and made it better

It reminded me of mj thriller

Wow I love this song by Cerrone and Take My Breath and I've never even related the two 😵

Does it also sort of sound like Call Me by Blondie or am I crazy?

both have a prominent bubbling 16th note synth thing going on but "call me" is in 6/8 vs 4/4..."heart of glass" is a closer match!

This is weekend speciality that he can revive old songs

Don’t forget chorus. It reminds so much Boney M’s “Sunny”

also sounds like thriller

MJ Thriller vibe

Who else getting hella The Weekend Shorts out of nowhere

Both sound very different

It’s called sampling 😮

sample ≠ steal

Newsflash: Artists listen to music all the time and it influences their tastes just like the rest of us. Yep, sounded 70s but prog rock and all that has been around for years. Hardly new. Half the ATARI games sounded like Gary Numan and a Dracula movie or a penny dreadful circa 1910. We are all magpies. OMG Cerrome sounds awesome might look them up. That whole disco sound is still good in 2023.

the start of take my breath reminded me of funky town but this is more accurate haha

Does anyone else think the dark synth sound sounds similar to Vitalic’s poney pt.1?

@@LUXXURY yep!! Thats it

It’s his best song. Really good performed live. It’s psychedelic disco.

I always thought it was thriller since there's been remixes and they sound well together

Now I know why it reminded me of something.. French Electro forever... theWeeknd has been working and inspired by Daft Punk.. it all makes sense

Napoleon dynamite out here snitchin

Abel sampled the song. Artist sample from other artist. Its not stealing, it’s inspiration. I’m sure Cerrone got a percentage or got paid from it. Abel played supernatural on Memento Mori before Dawn FM released.

Cerron‘s „Supernature“ reminds me of „Days of Pearly Spencer“ by David McWilliams somehow …

Bro you gotta realize there is so much music out there now that basically everything is almost connected with sounding the same 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

It was on an episode of memento mori so

2 of my fav songs

It also sounds like Flash Gordon by Queen.

they 100% watched climax and got inspired by the song

Inspiration what's the big fuss?

The both slap, I need a mashup!!

No it sounds like the "I think im losing my mind " song

Bro literally every artist copies other artists but they make it better than the original

Damn my friend

He had a couple more songs than just that. If you liked the 70s and 80s beats then you'll hear lot of it in his album. " catchy pop/ disco heck I hear guitar from a eye of the tiger by " survivor"

Bro thought he did sum, glad you got your interactions tho, he clearly sampled many 70-90s electro synth pop songs on the album and even played the sample songs on his show, bros talkin bout bettin dollars to donuts lame ahh

Are there any influences there from stevey nix 16’, or ABBA songs?

It doesn't matter we all know that artists never own there own music or recording .This shit started when they did it to black people. 1cent rec when they was getting paid more for stealing ther caft . So it really doesn't matter 🤷🏾‍♂️its great music jus love it

Come on, as time goes people try to make things sound better and that's the case here, Weeknd's version sounds like the current generation version while the other is too old school...probably in the 1300s someone will be remaking the Weeknd's instrumentals too

Sounds like Cascade Capers of Donkey Kong 3 IDK

Yup

I’ve seen videos like this a thousand times and there is a different song each time 😭😭😭 thriller, eye of the tiger, there is a ton. he didn’t copy someone, he took inspiration

Steal is not a correct word you can say it's a sample

k

You can’t really make songs that are original nowadays. As in, new rhythm and stuff. There are hundreds of thousands of songs. Maybe millions.

The take my breath away is older than a year

Both guys have a great talent with music

Never know ed sheeran was just sued for using Marvin Gaye's let's get it on

Wow, it’s called sampling or taking inspiration from past art to make art for the future

Of course he did he put this song on one of his momento Mori radio on apple.

I think people today are lazy and say F it in hopes to get away with it.

Neon city - Biodrive (2019)

It's crazy how two songs can sound similar when they're in the same genre and the same key.

Torture by the Jacksons is totally identical

He's not stealing the song but he make the songs better...that's The Weeknd I ever know

Thats Daft Punk sample for verdios que

Both remind me of the Days of Pearly Spencer song.

Agora pronto! Musica do the weekend perfeita e os haters botando peitica

Combine the two and upload the remix

PINK FLOYD "RUN LIKE HELL"

Your buggin man

Sounds more like Micheal Jackson’s thriller

it's called Sampling

Dope songs

Daft Punk sampled that

Making the weekend get a lawsuit challenge

Check the bollywood

I thought it was a M.J sample from thriller ?

No they didn’t steal it, they got the same sample I’m pretty sure

He didn’t stole he borrowed it

All of his songs are based on his past…

Sounds more like Giorgio By Moroder

Please Stop it. If it wasn't for Chuck Berry or Motown their would be no Elvis, Beatles or Rock n Roll.

this seems like a bit of a stretch besides the synths

Eh sounds more like Domo Arigato Mr Robotto

I don't see that live abel alone

It’s because the weeknd has always wanted to make his songs sound like the 80’s so others can listen to 80’s music

It’s called interpolation sampling I think that’s the term

How long until AI is able to compare every song ever written to every other song ever written - resulting in endless law suits also conducted by AI.

It’s probably a sample

You should listen to Cape Town, is much more similar

Who cares they both sound good

That's why they buy up every obscure record collection...

I knew I heard that b4 I listen to the weeknd
