Description

Simply, this design illustrates the fact that Abel Tesfaye doesn’t want all these girls to fall in love with him. The swan was made black, because swan’s symbolizes love, and this song is about not wanting love to occur. On the swan’s wings is X and O because that is The Weeknd’s label. Below the swan are pink symbols which represent females and also the symbol of Venus, the goddess of love. They are falling away from the bird to represent girls are always chasing him and he is always “flying away”. The swan is also smoking a cigarette because the artist The Weeknd smokes cigarettes. There is smoke coming from the cigarette with the lyrics “Don’t make me make you fall in love” because this is what the song is all about. Pink and black colors were chosen to show the abundance of love and the negative desire of it.
