Want to request a song? Tell us your rating? Send us a Text Message right now! This week on 1001 Songs That Make You Want To Die, we head straight into the fog with The Hills by The Weeknd.A song that sounds like fame, paranoia, sex, and self-loathing all yelling over each other through blown speakers. It’s moody. It’s aggressive. It’s been blasted in cars at dangerous volumes since 2015.Joining us is Joe Orchard from the Get The Shot podcast by Tamron, bringing strong opinions, zero fear, and the correct amount of chaos.We dig into the lyrics, the nihilistic flexing, the distorted production choices, and whether The Hills is a masterpiece of dark pop or just Abel yelling his problems at us very loudly. There’s talk of ego, excess, emotional damage, and of course a serious discussion about whether any of us could beat The Weeknd in a fight.Turn it up.
