Well, I watched it and I'll be kind and say any music video in English that relies on subtitles to understand the lyrics doesn't get you off to a very good start. The comments section on YouTube is, predictably, insane already!

I'm like those people on the Pearson Delta jet - bracing for impact!

It's just such an odd situation, having the son of an unpopular former Prime Minister try to go into show biz. Right Ben Mulroney?

Interesting he didn't sign up with a major label but rather chose a small independent Ottawa based label.  He co-wrote the tune, so points for that.

But the song and "Xav" sounds more or less the same as many other male singers heard on the radio.  Til The Nights Done isn't a bad song or poorly recorded, but nothing sets it apart from 100's of other dreamy R&B songs.  Well, I guess one thing sets it apart. 

One Trudeau ending a career...and another begins... Apparently there is already a parody version circulating on the net.  And Xav has other songs ready that will be released  in the weeks ahead. 

I wish him luck..   

Here in Canada, some Gen Z's might think they are listening to a Drake wannabe. 
For that reason alone (and there is more than enough room for me to be wrong) 
the song might already fail before we even talk about who the artist is...

 

As P1 pointed out, there is nothing outstanding about this tune. There are hundreds of others that are similar. I wonder if it will get any U.S. airplay and maybe reach the close to the bottom of the Hot 100.
