The rightful follow-up to the 80s-callback single “Blinding Lights”, which has been one of the best songs of the year so far, is “In Your Eyes”. The song shares a similar vibe and is just as catchy as its predecessor.
Both finding a home on The Weeknd’s masterpiece album After Hours, the two records sound amazing back-to-back. Today, a new version of “In Your Eyes” has been released, adding to the growing list of remixes of the cut.
Kenny G assisted The Weeknd for his TIME 100 performance of the song and, finally, their link-up has been made available on streaming services.
The studio version of Kenny G’s remix showcases his ability to evoke emotion with his tremendous saxophone solo, fitting the song perfectly, and contributing to Kenny’s resurgence as an important pop culture figure in 2020. As you’ll recall, he also came through with a dope run on Kanye West’s latest album Jesus Is King.
The Weeknd – In Your Eyes (remix) (ft. Kenny G) (prod. Max Martin, Oscar Holter & The Weeknd)
[Verse 1]
I just pretend, uh, that I’m in the dark
I don’t regret ’cause my heart can’t take a loss
I’d rather be so oblivious
I’d rather be with you
[Pre-Chorus]
When it’s said, when it’s done, yeah
I don’t ever wanna know
I can tell what you done, yeah
When I look at you
[Chorus]
In your eyes
I see there’s something burning inside you
Oh, inside you
In your eyes
I know it hurts to smile, but you try to
Oh, you try to
You always try to hide the pain
You always know just what to say
I always look the other way
I’m blind, I’m blind
In your eyes
You lie, but I don’t let it define you
Oh, define you
[Verse 2]
I tried to find love
In someone else too many times
But I hope you know I mean it (Mean it)
When I tell you you’re the one that was on my mind, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
When it’s said, when it’s done, yeah
I would never let you know (Let you know)
I’m ashamed of what I’ve done, yeah
When I look at you
[Chorus]
In your eyes (Your eyes)
I see there’s something burning inside you (Inside you)
Oh, inside you (Oh, inside you)
In your eyes
I know it hurts to smile, but you try to (But you try to)
Oh, you try to (You try to)
You always try to hide the pain (Oh, oh)
You always know just what to say (Oh, dear)
I always look the other way
I’m blind, I’m blind
In your eyes
You lie, but I don’t let it define you (Hey)
Oh, define you
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
In your eyes
I see there’s something burning inside you
Oh, inside you
You always try to hide the pain
You always know just what to say
I always look the other way
I’m blind, I’m blind
In your eyes
You lie, but I don’t let it define you
Oh, define you
