she isn't bad. 

But people on KTT have made tons of covers and song names just like that before so i seriously doubt he would drop anything so soon anyway.  Not even getting slightly excited for whatever that is.  
 
I've ranked the songs by their track placement on each tape.

1.[color= rgb(0, 0, 0)] High for This [/color]>[color= rgb(0, 0, 0)] Lonely Star[/color] > D.D.
2. [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]What You Need [/color]> [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]Montreal [/color]> [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]Life of the party[/color]
3. [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]Thursday[/color] > [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]House Of Balloons/Glass Table Girls[/color] > [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]Outside[/color]
4. [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]XO/The Host[/color] > [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]The Morning[/color] > [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]The Zone [/color]
5. [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]Wicked Games[/color] > [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]Initiation [/color]>[color= rgb(0, 0, 0)] The Birds Part 1[/color]

8. [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]Rolling Stone[/color] > [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]Loft Music [/color]>[color= rgb(0, 0, 0)] Next[/color] (This one was hard cause I love all 3 of these songs)

My tally:

HOB:  six 1s, three 2s, zero 3s.
Thursday:  two 1s, three 2s, four 3s.
EOS: one 1, three 2s, five 3's.

Using PersiaFly's point system of 1's = 3 points,2's = 2 points and 3's = 1 point

HOB: 24.
Thursday: 16.
EOS: 14.

About right since I think that HOB has been his magnum opus so far. I'm surprised that Thursday scored higher since I have EOS as my second favorite and Thursday 3rd.

The best songs from each tape for me are HOB: What You Need,Thursday: Rolling Stone and EOS: XO/The Host
 
1. D.D > High for This > Lonely Star
2. What You Need > Montreal > Life of the Party
3. Thursday > House of Balloons-Glass Table Girls > Outside
4. XO/The Host > The Zone > The Morning
5. Wicked Games > Initiation > The Birds Pt.1
6. The Party & The After Party > The Birds Pt.2 > Same Old Song
7. Gone > The Fall > Coming Down
8. Next > Loft Music > Rolling stone
9. EOS > The Knowing > Heaven or Las Vegas

House of Balloons: 19
Thursday: 15
Echoes of Silence: 20
 
I love seeing peoples opinions on this because it makes me check out songs i wouldn't rank that high.  His whole catalog is great.
My fav's though which is funny too see how people rank them 

HOB: 1. High for This 2. Wicked Games 3. The Knowing (the video kind made me fall back in love with this song and i now listen to it all the time)

Thursday: 1. Gone 2. Lonely star 3. Birds part 1

EOS : 1. Montreal 2. Next 3. Initiation
 
1. High for This > D.D. > Lonely Star
2. Montreal > What You Need > Life of the party
3. Glass Table Girls > Thursday > Outside (such a tough descision)
4. The Morning > The Zone > XO/The Host
5. Wicked Games > Initiation > The Birds Part 1
6. The Birds Part 2 > The Party & The Afterparty > Same Old Song
7. Gone > The Fall > Coming Down
8. Loft Music > Next > Rolling Stone (this was really hard too)
9. Echoes of Silence > The Knowing > Heaven or Las Vegas

HOB: 22
THRS: 15
EOS: 17

id rank them in that order too, HOB > EOS > THRS

This was the toughest choice, and I honestly wouldn't be mad at any ranking of these three songs. Gone is weird because I think the second half is WAY better than the first. If it was just the second half I'd easily put it first. And that "so I make my love vanish" part of fall is ******ed. Coming Down has an amazing hook. 
Too tough to call.

All this time "Rolling Stone" was playing before "Gone" on my mp3 and I thought that was the correct order

Since I'm here
1. High For This > D.D. > Lonely Star
2. Montreal > What You Need > Life of The Party
3. Thursday> Outside > HOB / Glass Table Girls
4. The Zone > XO/The Host > The Morning
5. Birds Pt.1 > Wicked Games > Initiation
6. Same Old Song > Birds Pt.2 > The Party & the Afterparty (Hardest one imo they all = each other)
7. Coming Down > The Fall > Gone
8. Rolling Stone > Loft Music > Next
9. The Knowing > EOS > Heaven or Las Vegas

HOB- 18
Thursday- 18
EOS- 18

Complete Draw for me even tho I enjoy HOB and EOS more than Thursday
 
Just to point out, this is not a very scientific or accurate way to weigh the albums against each other. Unless the Weeknd purposely ranked his songs in order or something, songs are being randomly pitted against each other. HOB could have its best songs going against the worst songs of EOS, etc.

To really weigh the albums we'd need to first rank each album's songs 1-9 then do the analysis we've been doing.

Still fun though.
 
idk why everyone is doing it but might as well
High For This > D.D. > Lonely Star
What You Need > Montreal > Life of the Party
Outside > HOB/Glass Table > Thursday
The Zone > XO/Host > The Morning
Wicked Games > Initiation > Birds pt 1
Same Old Song > The Party & After Party > Birds pt 2
Gone > The Fall > Coming Down
Rolling Stone > Loft Music > Next (Love all three tho)
Heaven or Las Vegas > The Knowing > EOS
