Break Out the Codeine & European Models, The Weeknd’s “Valerie” is Here Posted by Nathan S. on 11/07/12 | Filed under

Yesterday I was a little nervous that y'all would be on The Weeknd overkill mode when it came to posting "Twenty Eight", but since the response to that record was pretty positive, fuck it, let's re-up with this new "Valerie" joint. If you've ever heard a Weeknd song before you know what to expect: drugs, heartbreak and some MJ-esque vocals. No surprises here, but in the words of Frankly White, it still makes you want to take ecstasy and fuck a European model.

By the way, Amy Winehouse's "Valerie" kicks the shit out of this "Valerie", but nice try Abel. A lot of folks going to be copping this "Trilogy" album when it drops November 13 - just how many is up to debate.

And radio rip for now, I'll update asap. And if you've got a better version don't be shy, hit RefinedHype Nation in the comments below.
