It’s important to know that Finneas producing every single song! No collaborators ever! It’s quite incredible what they have been able to accomplish

I always think it's a little funny when people take this song too seriously. She said in an interview that her thoughts were "...I’m not that, but if you can be fake with everyone and try to prove that you’re something that you’re not then I can do it too." It is a tongue-in-cheek song where she's playing a role, almost like "this is what you expect, so I'll play along."

This whole album was on repeat for me for WEEKS. She's insanely talented and her brother produces all her shit. He's highly underrated.

Ocean Eyes was one of her earlier songs, which shows how good she was at a young age... and how far she's come.

According to her brother The Hi-hat in the song is not really a Hi-hat it's actually the sound of a Crosswalk in Australia he mentioned that on Jimmy Fallon

The fact that she wrote all these songs with her older brother in his room is just amazing truly talented

Fun fact in case no one said this yet; that beat switch at the end was made by Billie herself. Her brother does almost all the music production, though she does some; that one was the first beat she made and used on any of her songs. Also, according to both her and her brother, they didn’t expect this song to blow up as it did, they just thought it would be a fun amp up song for the start of her set she was going to do at Coachella the year her album dropped. That is at least what they said in interviews.

All that background music is done by Billie’s brother Finneas, he also produced all of her songs, both of them together are fantastic.

that whole album is amazing. great sounds. great beats.

Billie’s interviews are great. She’s magnetic to listen to not only in her music. Like others have said, the vanity fair interviews are a really interesting overviewing concept, but I would also recommend the Rolling Stones interview breaking down bad guy, and there’s a mini series on her songs from her first album (not EP) that I would only watch once you’ve actually heard the songs. Needless to say, there’s a lot more. For the next video: bury a friend The video after that should be: all the good girls go to hell But I really would recommend switching on the subtitles when watching her music videos.

It’s her and her brother Finneas. They’re a magical duo. They write and make everything together. He’s her producer and co-song writer. Just a little background about Billie.. She was a dancer at first..was in dance classes and everythiing. She had a career ending injury that stopped that in its tracks. She concentrated more on singing after her and her brother made a song for her dance class. They uploaded it to SoundCloud and her career started from that song. It’s called “ocean eyes.” So she was like 14-15 years old when she started blowing up. How many teenage musicians have a documentary made about them? There’s an Apple+ documentary about her called “the world’s a little blurry.” She has Tourette’s (physical ticks, not verbal), she has a voice that’s a throwback to the 50’s, but she grew up on all sorts of music. She ranges from Peggy Lee and Sinatra, to the Beatles and childish gambino. And now? She’s becoming an actress. Just dive into the Billie waters and take a swim.

I know I recommended Everything I Wanted, but Bury A Friend has a really awesome vibe to it too. COMPLETELY different feelings to the songs but both are definitely worth checking out.

You should listen the Bond theme that she and Finneas did - No Time to Die - specifically live from the Brit Award, and then for more of her lyrics, I suggest "Listen before I go" "I love you" from her debut LP When We All Fall Asleep Where Do We Go? - then Male Fantasy from the new album Happier Than Ever - and lastly The 30th from Guitar Songs. That one especially just gets me. It's based on one of her friends who was in an accident on 11/30/2022 and how her feelings were eating her up, so finally, on 12/30/2022 she and Finneas sat down to write The 30th. The feels! Welcome to the world of Billie! 😎😎 Also, there's a documentary from her early days to when the debut LP dropped - the World's a Little Blurry - it really gives you a good insight to how she blew up and how amazingly grounded she and Finneas still are despite blowing up at 14! Ocean Eyes blew up at 14.

My favorite song of hers is "You should see me in a crown"

Spring just started purring, hes watching now

Great songs with music videos: You Should See Me in a Crown, All the Good Girls Go to Hell, But a Friend, Idontwantotbeyouanymore, My Future, and, Everything I wanted

This is what won her and Finneas like 9 Grammy's and broke records nobody thought could be broken 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

I recommend you react to *Idonwannabeyouanymore (vertical video)*

I SOOO CANNOT TELL YOU HOW HAPPY I AM YOU'RE DOING "MY LIL SISTA GIRL!" !!!! CANNOT WAIT FOR THE JOURNEY!!!

"Bury A Friend" 🙏

My favorite Billie Eilish song is Six Feet Under. It doesn't have a music video, but it's definitely worth listening to! Copycat is a fun one, too.

Every time I hear this track I can't not think of waiting at an Australian pedestrian crossing. That click sound is unmistakable.

Awesome, love your reaction! Please do “Lovely” next, Billie and Khalid

You Should See Me In A Crown!!!

gotta watch this song live..the energy is AMAZING!!

Love how diverse your reactions are! Especially love Billie, Ren, any tool or Metallica, System of a Down- keep it up, man!

Billie is everything ❤

I'm Way outside of her key demographic, but she's an interesting Young Lady with a really cool and different sound. "Bury A Friend" is Amazing, it's like Marilyn Manson meets Björk.

The half tempo part at the end was written first, by Billie in her room, and was later dropped in at the end of the song. See the _Pensado's Place_ interview with Finneas.

NO TIME TO DIE!!!!!

She was amazing at Glastonbury 🎶

Yeah this song was super catchy haha, it was on the radio for sooooo long. I've been a fan since Tummyache and my personal favs are: My Boy, idontwannabeyouanymore, my future and Xanny. And my advice to you is don't sleep on her older stuff, in my opinion it's some of her and Finneas' best.

The Interrupters do an amazing Ska-Punk cover of this song as well! That's a genre I'd love to see you dive through as it has roots dating back to the 70's. Fun fact, the high speed clicking noise you hear in the background is a sample of a auditory assistance device on pedestrian crossings. Finneas heard it when they were in Australia (I think) and recorded it on his phone to use in a track..

The high hat sound is actually the Australian cross walk noise, her brother talked about it on one of the late night shows

Bellyache!

I'm not into pop, I don't have this on my playlist, but I understand why she's so successful and I don't mind listening to her songs, of someone else puts them on. Plus she is a bit diffent, which I respect.

All her videos are insane

The guy in the video standing still and being "milk boarded" is her brother and is responsible for the production on her songs. I believe he sings too.

She's a brilliant singer/songwriter, and her brother is a brilliant producer. They are truly a match made in heaven. And their love for each other enhances their talent.

My husband is in five bands, and is critical, but not to a point to where he is ugly. He just didn’t know any better. All he knew what was on the radio and then I pulled up on KZfaq and cast it to the TV an interview by Rolling Stones magazine interview with Billy Eilish pirate O’Connell and Finneas O’Connell at their parents house and how he and they made this song. For the next year, everyone that came over to our house, my husband was outright, explaining why Billy and sentience are going to win every award available in the US and that year, they damn sure did. But before I showed him that KZfaq interview of the Rolling Stones, making of bad guy with Billy and Finneas, my husband said that she’s just that girl that plays the ukulele, right? And my jaw dropped. You are a serious lyricist, not just my opinion, because I’m not your only subscriber, wink, wink nudge nudge, if you KZfaq search Rolling Stones interview with Billy and Finneas, making of bad guy. That could be a reaction video and if not, then you would be so amazed. Also, the song they did called bury a friend, when Billie went in to the dentist and under anesthesia, she hit record audio on her phone, and when she got home, she gave her brother Phineas, the Dental drilling’s that are the high pitch sounds used in the song bury a friend. That is her recording from the dentist.😮😮

❤❤❤❤

Her two newer songs are more about the lyrics and are very emotional! She opened up with them, they’re amazing!

there's actually a video of billie and finneas explaining the process of writing/producing this song (on rolling stone's yt channel I believe) and they go into depth about how this song was meant to just be a fun weird song that wasn't meant to be taken seriously at all. has very little doubles, very straightforward message and delivery and very little depth. however it ended up blowing up anyway and hit the #1 spot on billboard for weeks straight (overthrowing old town road, which was a big feat in itself). I think its safe to say its not her best song. not even close. artists' most popular songs rarely are their best anyway. this is simply a fun song to vibe along to. definitely doesn't exhibit any of her prominent qualities as an artist, which is why I'm glad you delved into some of her other stuff before fully reacting to this one.

TV next! love your reaction!

You should see me in a crown and All Girls go To Hell are fire videos! Thank you! Great reaction!

Ooh, you should do Conquer Divide's cover of this sometime, too. It's absolutely killer!

Her brother is the one who takes her gum in the beginning and she dances next to. They are a team and wrote everything together. They’re on Howard Stern a few times and the interviews give you such a great respect for her and her brother. Not to mention they’re funny as hell. Complete down to earth people.

Billie Eilish- You don't get me high anymore

She is bar far my favorite Beat Saber music list....😀

This song is every bad girl deciding that she won't conform. It's really an anthem. There's a reason it shot up in the charts. I'm 45 and this song resonates with me.

This song is about being the bad guy

She was a dancer. And she has hypermobility (I also do and used to do that backward crab thing). Sadly she ripped her hope to bits LC damaged the growth plate and was unable to continue dancing. I sadly know that too (spine blown in car smack). So she finds it really hard on stage not to go bonkers (and has done ending up with severe shin splints and damage poor thing). She and Phineus are superb. His production is incredible. They deserve every plaudit they’ve won. And then some because they are different and individual. And utterly unapologetic. Breath of fresh air. If u can perhaps watch the documentary ‘The world’s a little blurry’.. it’s good & you’ll understand her more.

Bury a Friend should be next - the video is brilliant. It looks like some sort of Marilyn Manson video and of course the music is superb!

If I'm not mistaken this song was actually written by her older brother when she was still underage. Also as many times as I've heard this song on the radio this was the first time I heard that last verse.

For a very different vibe listen to Ocean Eyes or Lovely. If you liked the whisper at the end...Bury a Friend.

1:35 OK I was having a moment and being sad and happy with the last two songs, but when you lost your sandal, now, I’m just happy for some strange reason, thank you for making me belly laugh 1:37

Billie Eilish‘s mother taught her and Phineas how to write lyrics. Billie and Phineas were both homeschooled. Thank you for more Billie!

I love her. She's so good. Dig deeper. You should see me in my crown 👑

3YE (a kpop trio) used that beat in part of their song OOM (Out of My Mind), definitely recommend.

Billie Eilish you should see me in a crown xx ❤ xx

Loved writing this with her!

Finneas!!!!! GENIUS with beats and production… In their bedroom!!!!!!!!!

You gotta check out the whole "Happier than ever" album, the lyrics, the production, the vocals on this album are just...I don't even have words, it's so so so good Besides this album I'd recommend: 1. Billie Eilish - everything i wanted 2. Billie Eilish, Khalid - lovely 3. Billie Eilish - No Time To Die (Live From The BRIT Awards, London) 4. Billie Eilish - i love you (Live At The Greek Theatre) 5. Billie Eilish - Ocean Eyes (Official Music Video) 6. Billie Eilish - hostage 7. Billie Eilish - ilomilo (Audio)

All her lyrics are🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

@4:03, 😂Cliff, it's called a crab walk...she's been a dancer and has done sooo much other stuff that she has a hard time with bc her body literally just won't let her do...but yes she does this in a few ways but you'll see what I mean 😅😊❤ love ya

✨👌

New subscriber! If you want more Billie recs, I think one of the best video/song combos is Bury a Friend, very artistic, cinematic, and creepy. Based on her experience with sleep paralysis. For a more vulnerable side of her, I love her songs Everything I Wanted (a tribute to her brother), and Lovely (collaboration with Khalid). These are from when she really started to blow up several years ago. Then if you listen to her newer songs in contrast, you'll notice the evolution of her confidence and self-empowerment.

Smith & Myers (Brent Smith and Zach Myers from Shinedown) did a cover of it that is pretty good. Also, the push up guy at the end of my nephew lol

You should react to Lana Del Rey too, she is a big inspiration for Billie

Please react to Billie Eilish -Bury a Friend -You Should See Me in a Crown -Thanks!!!

I can't seem to find the link, but the live performance where her and her brother singing 'I love You' while suspended in the air will have You agog.

I love Billie so much. Check out some songs from her most recent album Happier than Ever

000! Part of that interview that I mentioned you will hear it in the backseat of this particular song when they were touring for the very very first time in Australia, and they were crossing the street and the crosswalk sounded really strange, so Billy recorded the crosswalk sound and that is the sound you hear as a backseat in this song. I would never give anything away had you not already seen this. Of all of the channels that I follow reaction videos. I hate a spoiler alert, although I can appreciate a teaser

@3:03, ish..Cliff, She did this bc of ppl saying all this awful shiz about her...and this was the first video that she had complete creative control over as well, I think I'd told you about her conditions, she has turrets and synesthesia, which is when colors make you feel some type of way, and they have a texture, a feeling, a temperature etc to them so she does alot of especially this one around that...love ya❤

Mad As a Hatter live at The Covenant House by Larkin Poe!!!!

A lot of people never hear “before I go.” The album version has a lot of quiet background sounds that create a really morbid ambiance. There is also a live Version where she plays piano and sings. Both are great.

The SNL version is pretty damn good too

@6:56, idk how he didn't break out laughing 😂AND HE IS STILL HOLDING HER INVISALINE TEETH STRAIGHTENERS THIS WHOLE TIME 😂😂😂!!! That's why they left that part in the very beginning basically like not really knowing how they want to start a major record...and it truly works so good! BTW, they still wrote and recorded the albums in Finneas' room at home like they always did! Now they mainly do it at his house but they have done very little in the studio! They just don't like it, it's not a natural thing for them..

I'm kinda uncanny picking hits and when this dropped I knew she was going to clean house.

DON’T SMILE AT ME React to her EP please!!!!

Hi Hi Cliff.. Oh if you loved this.. someone made a music vid with this, and LOKI clips, that is pretty amazing :P ♥♥

Rewatching on 4/19/2023: You didn't catch it but at 9:16 in your commentary 3/4 of the way through, you innocently, inadvertently came up with either a new song title or lyric - "she blew, she blew and everybody new!" [or an 11 syllable modified Haiku] - cracked me up! Billie would have loved to have heard that. P.S. if you would like to see nature at work creating art, imagine fresh snow covering the ground after a very long winter [right next to the U.S./Canada border] and this is on April 19 with more coming. Hope you get over you pneumonia soon.

If you want a good one to watch and cool lyrics. Check out Hostage

React to `you should see me in a crown" by her

I have always thought the song reminded me a lot of Roisin Murphy (maybe the song Ramalama Bang Bang)

Make a review of Ilomilo, it is also in her first album. It’s amazing

More Billie, plz

“There’s so much mass appeal here” “Duh”. 😂

I also feel atracted to older men lol, I get her u-u btw, I'm loving your videos so far, and I'm glad tto see that you are enjoyng her work as well, she's amazing ♥

Please please react to 'Bury A Friend' next.

Beatboxing 😮 7:51

I’d love to see you react to Planet Zero by Shinedown! The music video is amazing!

You should check out the parody of this by The Cog is Dead with the same name. They flipped this to be the cliche villains from old black and white westerns.

You should listen to some of her live performances

YT has been buggin for sure. Like on the tech side. They’re always buggin on the people side. This song is forever fire 🔥 🖤

3:38 uhhhhhmmmm

Billie Eilish and Finneas Break Down Her Hit Song 'Bad Guy'

Breaking Benjamin "Dance with the Devil"🖤🖤🖤🖤

fun fact, this song was something she wrote and didnt take it seriously and she said its not suppose to be taken literal. Iv noticed it with a number of monster hit records. So in conclusion if you want a monster hit, write some bullshit that isnt serous and itll blow

"There's so much mass appeal here" ... "Duh." Lol
