The Weeknd

"Till Dawn (Here Comes the Sun)"

The Weeknd's Trilogy comes out on Tuesday (November 13) through Universal Republic, and as previously reported, the remixed and remastered compendium of the dude's previously released mixtapes includes a few new tunes too. Already this week, BBC Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe delivered "Twenty Eight" and "Valerie," and now we've got another radio rip of previously teased tune "Till Dawn (Here Comes the Sun)."

We didn't really notice the skittery, typewriter-style percussive ticks when the teaser vid dropped, and the full song reveals some flashy, cranked-amp guitar work, in addition to the murky R&B arrangement. Lyrically, the Weeknd gets into detail about a clandestine courtship, which finds two tortured, adulterous paramours in each other's arms by the time the sun comes up.
