50 Best Songs of 2015

1 The Weeknd, "Can't Feel My Face"

It was the "oooooh!" that changed everything. That single ecstatic syllable, slipping out just before each chorus, transformed Abel Tesfaye (a.k.a. the Weeknd) from a cult R&B singer to a full-on pop star – just as decisively as a similar yelp of joy marked a new era in Michael Jackson's career when "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" hit 36 years earlier. Max Martin's satin-smooth production helped, too, vaulting "Can't Feel My Face" straight to Number One on the pop charts with Scandinavian efficiency. But Tesfaye's showstopping vocal performance is what makesit an instant classic. He spends the song remaking himself as a pop giant – cleverly disguising his obsession with drugs beneath a metaphor about a dangerously hot fling, and playing down his angst-y tendencies until there's just a hint of existential pain in his lighter-than-air falsetto. By the time the song is over, you'll do anything for another hit.

I lost interest when he went pop. The earlier stuff is still great.

Faustian deals yo

[ShaDynasty]

This new album is the best thing hes done in years! Love it.

Oneohtrix Pt Never produced the whole record, it feels like Weeknd's whole 80s direction finally paying off.

[Blackula Spectacula]

Ever since he went "pop" he reminds me of Michael Jackson.

Ever since he went "pop" he reminds me of Michael Jackson.

People were saying that about his voice early on, he even had a cover of Dirty Diana. He's been going harder and harder into the 80s synthwave, MJ vibe since Starboy.

How old are you Sha?
