Why do we like this?

The most haunting gem to grace the R&B scene in recent history has emerged with his own recollection of Beyonce's "Drunk In Love." If The Weeknd's falsetto doesn't bring back steamy memories of what your Valentine's evening ought to have been like, indulging in this pleasure treasure of a remix certainly will.

A sultry use of synth, coupled with the heavy bass that Beyoncé rode so well, make for a re-energized and drugged up slow jam.

Abel Tesfaye is no stranger to rearranging killer hits, having covered Michael Jackson's Dirty Diana on his 2011 mixtape Echoes Of Silence. This track is in the same vein, with a reworking of lyrics and a familiar bond between ecstasy and raw emotion.

If you're unfamiliar with the rest of The Weeknd's work, be sure to peep his 2013 studio album Kiss Land, which aptly builds on the tenacity of his previous mixtapes.
