    • Of course it’s him. He’s always had a great natural voice. This is why he became popular very quick. He actually made a mistake in this performance halfway his voice went a little flat but he picked it up. But I loved it. It’s natural to not be robotically perfect. It’s organic.

Don't get me wrong, I loved the other ones where he sang better than the studio version and showed off his vocal range, but this one was spot on when it comes to sounding like the studio version. The fact that he can do both is a testament to how great he is.

    • its a fact that he uses autotune, he is using it live as well. In 2:05 you can hear it clearly. That doesnt mean that is a good or a bad singer, Weeknd is such a good singer!! but is true that he follows the patters of the music industry.
