Hmm, not sure I got all of that last post, Lee.

But I'm looking forward to the Oscars! I almost always watch the ceremony, and I've seen a few if the feature-length movies.

Much, thanks. It's an odd joke, though, even coming from Conan.

The Weeknd has become quiet the hitmaker lately.

Allow me to assist, Dowager Countess of Grantham.   ;D


Abel Makkonen Tesfaye, known professionally as the Weeknd, is a Canadian singer-songwriter, record producer, and actor.  Regarded as an influential figure in popular music, he is known for his light-lyric tenor vocal range and falsetto, as well as his alternative R&B sound. His accolades include four Grammy Awards, 20 Billboard Music Awards, 22 Juno Awards, six American Music Awards, three MTV Video Music Awards, and a Latin Grammy Award.


From 2014 to today, he's managed to accumulate 37 Top 40 hits.

Wow, thank you music aficionado Chuck!

And thank you Dowager Countess (Your Countness?) for asking the question that I was too timid to ask!  ;)

Here are two songs to give you a taste of what The Weeknd puts out.

This one got to #6 on the Billboard Hot 100.





This one only got to #43, but it's one of my faves songs by him, so I included it.
