about this song

Though upbeat in tempo, “In the Night” explores dark themes following a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, similar to the “horror stories” told on The Weeknd’s debut studio album, Kiss Land. The New York Times describes “In the Night” as the album’s most electric moment. The song is reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe’s survival story – American actress and model was sexually abused as a child and often spoke out about it in the media.
