He adds necessary rhythm, beaming synths, a smooth bass line, and even some backing vocals, turning a piece of mood music into a complete song. Zayn’s metaphors about love and war sound trite on the original, but here, Tyler makes the entire song so funky that they become the exaggerations of a hopeless romantic. On his remix, Tyler breathes life into an otherwise tepid song. Tyler, the Creator’s video for his “PILLOWTALK” remix is its antithesis. It’s just Tyler, alone in the bedroom he designed for himself, wearing a monochrome bright yellow outfit he also designed, dancing and singing like nobody will ever be watching. Like the song itself, it’s well dressed fluff. No amount of chintzy kaleidoscopic effects can disguise its intent to rapidly mature a teen heartthrob into a sexy man. The video for “ PILLOWTALK” is a three-and-a-half-minute excuse for Zayn Malik to make out with Gigi Hadid.
