The Weeknd & Ariana Grande’s “Die For You (Remix)”
Abel Tesfaye, better known as The Weeknd, has just released a remix of his 2016 hit song “Die For You.” At first, the song had been making its revival run through TikTok videos. So, with all the renewed attention, The Weeknd decided to remix the song for the masses. With this decision made, he then asked his friend and frequent collaborator Ariana Grande to sing, not only background vocals, but also a full verse for the remix.
Take a look at Grande’s version of verse 2 of the song:
“I’m finding ways to stay concentrated on what I gotta do
But, baby boy, it’s so hard ’round you
And yes, I’m blaming you”
As fans know, Grande’s music suits slow R&B so well, and her lyrics here fit into the song perfectly. She continues with:
“And you know I can’t fake it, now or never
And you insinuating that you think we might be better
Better me and you
Yeah, I know you do”
The R&B pop song ”Die For You (Remix)” has quickly made its way up to No. 2 on YouTube’s Trending in Music list. After only 48 hours of its release, the official lyric video had garnered 9.4M views.
