23: Drunk In Love (Remix)
Remember when every artist produced remixes of Beyoncé’s “Drunk In Love”? Tesfaye threw his hat into the ring in 2014, and his voice matched the song like a glove.
The R&B singer makes the song his own by leaning more towards the drunken aspect than the “love” part, proving that he can spin a web, even on a song that wasn’t originally his.
Once The Weeknd and Post Malone started teasing a collaborative track, it was bound to be a hit. Two of the world’s biggest stars have come together for a massive anthem, destined to top the charts by sheer power. Fortunately for us, the song is an absolute classic from the duo, built around their personalities but with enough tricks and flair to be brand new. – Sam Armstrong

“Can’t Feel My Face”
After initially releasing a string of hit mixtapes, The Weeknd scored his first Billboard Top 100 hit in 2015. The song that launched his into the stratosphere was “Can’t Feel My Face,” the lead single from her 2015 album Beauty Behind The Madness.
