In the 2018 clip, The Weeknd (real name Abel Tesfaye) wanders an empty road at dusk, before bats explode from his head at the chorus. “So call out my name/ Call out my name when I kiss you so gently/ I want you to stay,” he sings in the hook.

He then appears on a stage against a blank screen and walking among a fire-filled landscape with its animal inhabitants frozen. He then catches the attention of a creepy woodland creature, who also appears at the end of the clip, staring into the camera from an apartment balcony.

Upon its release, “Call Out My Name,” peaked at No. 4 on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100 songs chart and No. 3 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. It also reached No. 14 on the US Rhythmic chart and was certified three-times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

The track appears on The Weeknd’s 2018 EP, My Dear Melancholy, which topped both the all-genre Billboard 200 and the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts.
