Just wanted to throw in here that listening to you talk about the artistry behind the different styles of singing, whether it be light and airy or full and loud made me tear up a little. Throughout high school and college I was constantly being told in order to be "good" at singing I'd have to master the latter, and it was so disheartening when I just didn't enjoy the techniques as much. This video was amazing and personally validating ❤ Love Billie, love your commentary, and love the content you put out

this is why i HAVE to laugh when people say she cannot sing live 😭😭 like HUH? ive never heard her off vocally live like ever??

nearly 2 years later & this song still blows me away, it is so characteristically bond yet so uniquely billie/finneas

in my opinion, this is by far her best performance of this song ever

i genuinely think that she has always been able to sing like that, since she's got a history of vocal training. Maybe she had to kind of sacrifice her belting in her music because of her stylistic choices, that ultimately made her famous and to have that much control in such breathy voice, runs and high notes its no joke, but now that she is switching styles she is able to include other parts of her voice. She just hits those high notes so naturally i mean there's no way she just learned that hell no, but probably had to dust up the pipes to be consistent live. Anyways she absolutely killed this performance, this fuller and darker sound is my favorite on her (same with happier than ever) and I'm very excited to see what her new music brings. Lots of love from Spain Tristan, amazing video!!

I think her belting also got bette because she started performing no time to die on tour so she’s been belting more often

I definitely hear it, she's a LOT more open, I think. It was an amazing performance, so controlled and satisfying vocals

A good breathy voice like hers is so freaking hard to achieve. Loved your video!

I love that you clarify that Billie's 'breathy' vocal qualities aren't 'weak', just a different stylistic choice. Billie started this song using a lot of breath in the sound, but it was clearly planned out where she would take her breaths using that style. As the song progressed she used less air and more closure to change the sound, so she has command of her technique, whether 'breathy' or 'full' sounding :) I loved watching this performance! She has so much skill, and such fascinating musical intuition that comes through in her style!

I think Billie has always had more versatility to her voice than people realize. I think where she is growing as a singer is in her level of confidence. And I think touring is giving her more and more confidence on stage to use/explore her voice in different ways in front of large audiences. Also, you are right that Billie and Finneas aren't going anywhere. But I would argue that the greatest predictor of their potential longevity is their ability as song writers. They're better writers than most of the pop artists (and the writers who write songs for the pop artists). While I think Billie is a lovely singer, she didn't win the Oscar for her singing voice. She and Finneas won because it's a really well-written song. The lyrics are strong. The arrangement is well-done. And, yes, their singing is good. They will be asked to write more songs for more movies in the future. And they'll win more Oscars and more Grammys. And if they get tired of performing, Billie and Finneas are talented enough that they could have a career writing and producing songs for other artists. They have a long career ahead of them.

she has always had the incredible ability to sing, but she was much younger and her voice was slightly undeveloped. Shes older now and has been working on her voice for so long. its much fuller and less airy. her control is as perfect as always. its all growth and she sounds incredible

I totally agree with your comments around the 7minute mark. Billie has always been sooo intentional about every sound that comes out of her mouth, it was never a weaker sound before. In fact, a lot of times, the lighter sound is much harder to do.

Don’t apologize for pausing. We love to hear your commentary and explanations, especially someone like me who wants to learn the terminology 🤍

She's also singing it live every night on tour. I can vouch that the performance at Madison Square Garden on 2/18 was simply stunning!

I so agree that Happier Than Ever put her in a new place. It expanded her range in every way. She’s just so amazing whatever she does.

The control required to sing softly is underrated. Belting always gets the attention, and if it brings more fans to Billie's voice then that's awesome. But the legit control she has over her softer vocals is stunning too.

Apparently studio version was recorded in the bunk of a tour bus…crazy!!!

This is absolutely the most impressive use of Vibrato I’ve ever heard from Billie as well as evolving in to the true "Bond" sound! Such a beautiful voice & amazing talent 💜. Sending lots of hugs, love & prayers that you are feeling better & for a wonderful & blessed weekend Tristan🙏🏻!

I feel like she’s starting to showcase more of her vocals because a lot of people were critical towards her and her sound. I always heard negative reviews against her vocals and songs. I’ve always thought she was a great singer. Not everyone has to be Celine or Mariah or Carrie Underwood or whoever can belt to be a great singer. And I’ve noticed Billie is very selective where she brings out her vibrato and belting notes instead of being Willy nilly with those notes. And I find that more interesting.🤷🏽‍♀️

When you said she sounded a bit like evanescence I was like YASS! Her voice blows me away!

I like Billie's whisper vocals, but I absolutely love her full voice like in Oxytocin.

She just keeps getting better!

she sounds amazing, for me the change is that she's using way more chest than doing falsetto so the vocals sound waaaay fuller!

yesss was waiting on your reaction to this !! her performance was so incredibleeee

This song slaps! Fr tho this performance gave me chills. Love her more open tone

Tristan: *makes disgusted face* Also tristan after: "she sounds GREAT!"

AND this was after two nights in a row of concerts in Seattle. Shes amazing.

TRISTAN!!!! Omg when you said she’s moving towards Evanescence I was like yes!!!!!!! I hear it entirely. As an Amy Lee lover I’m like yessss Billie Yessss! Billie give us some more pop rock vibes I’ll die so happy 😭

she's definitely singing differently but it sounds so good. Her, Finneas, and the orchestra are so talented omg

I think I’ve been watching your channel for too long now. My first reaction when I heard this version at the Oscar’s was: Tristan has to react to this, that is amazing. Also, I’m at the point where I complete the sentences like: “And you know why?” And I said to myself: happier than ever, of course ahahahha. Just a quick note: who the heck hasn’t heard of evanescence? If you’re that sad person, please go check it out.

YASS I WAS WAITING FOR THIS VIDEOO! Thanks Tristan

At least they didn’t let her sing the first verse and then have some random people sing the rest, and butcher it at that!

i was just gonna ask that you react to this! you hadn’t posted this one yet so i watched you reacting to the trailer version & it’s so interesting to see & notice the differences you point out! loved the vid

I didn't think this song could be any better. This is my favorite song by her and then I listened to this I was shocked. I love it!! ❤️

Thank you so much for making this video!! it helps me feel better from my anxiety disorder. Thanks so much!😊

Ayeee I’ve been wanting to see your reaction to this!! It was so good!

I heard the Amy Lee (Evanescence) vibes immediately and I’m so glad you did too haha

This is my favorite live performance of hers to date. I got chills and I’m so proud of her Oscar win 😭💕

Tristan: *Pure disgust on his face* Also Tristan: She's so good :o

i love watching your videos because I watch it for your reactions (because its such a good vibe:) and for the actual song/video as well.. legit i watched this one for the first time with you haha

Totally agreed with the evanescence part you mentioned. I was just thinking that before you mentioned it! Gave me evanescence vibes.

You’re such a great coach. Officially following you everywhere! 🎉

Mariah's and Billie's breathy singing style are two of the most beautiful things that I have heard. ❤ I will always be a fan of them.

I saw her live in Boston and she sang it just like that too, very open and belty and it was beautiful !

Billie just said (in her last concert) that she has a severe sinus infection and that until yesterday she was not allowed to speak, and thanks to medicines she is now better. ah and let's not forget that she had the covid, and we all know what it is.

I love how you explain things, it's simply beautiful and easy to understand. ❤️

Fiiinnnaalllyyyy I was checking your channel for this since a day after the Oscars😂

I've been waiting for you to react to this your on itttttt

I think she sounded and did amazing. I love seeing artists learn, grow, and hone their craft. Side note your hair looks so good curly and long. Honda jealous!

Love hearing her voice grow. Though I agree with the comments from people that say they think she's always been able to sing like this! I think so too. She just seems to be able to sing in so many different way/styles and it's incredible♥

her brits awards performance of this song is also REALLY good. giving full orchestra vibes in that one.

I went to her concert (which was a day before this performance) and I noticed a huge change in her voice too! I also think she was a bit more quieter due to her being on tour during the Oscar’s

omg i waited for you to react to this

Living for the rant at the the end hahah! Missed you Tristan

Honestly I love your editor!!

i saw then in concert on her first show back in nola on feb 3 of this year and wow! she was incredible! still feeling that post concert sadness

Great video, as always, loved the instructional part! Btw u could react to some of her brother's songs, would also love to see that! Keep it up bro, great to see u back with the daily uploads!

I WAS WAITING FOR YOU TO REACT TO THIS

I love how upfront the accompaniment was in this performance. Living for the flute and horn features in this composition!!

Thank you for pointing out that Billie's softer singing isn't weaker, I absolutely love this performance though and your commentary is spot on!

I’ve been waiting for this one!!!

Oh thank goodness I’ve been looking for this reaction.

This live version by BE is on another level! Few singers have this kind of vocal control in live performances! The other singer that comes to mind with this level of vocal control is AURORA.

Billie has really grown as a singer! Especially in a live setting.

She's gorgeous and this song is amazing! Every performance gets better and better 😍🥰

Been waiting for thisssss

Thank you for doing such a fantastic analyzation of the performance. Hit the nail on the head.

I love this performance!!! Gave me chills

Is that a song at the end? If so what’s it called?

I love to see you honestly interface with this song, sometimes I wonder if you self censor because so many comments seem to misinterpret some of your expressions. 😻💜

Thanks. I really enjoyed your analysis on this.

Dude you're everything

Would love to see you react to an R&b singer. I’d suggest summer walker session 32/come thru live performance

I actually like the breathy version a bit more but anyways, it makes me so happy to see her try new styles

waitt she does sound kind of different??? like where are these belts coming from? she definitely got out of her breathy tone for this performance also what the heck I'm actually early

Everytime i hear Billie sing this song in particular i get goosebumps. It’s so good!

Love your comments Tristan! Bill was awesome as usual!

Man she’s really growing up I’m so proud of her

her voice has matured so much

THANK YOU for being one of the few who understand that Billie can sing whatever the hell she wants. She chooses how she sings. She can belt when she wants and she can sing breathy when she wants. Everything she does is by design. She’s genius and so so many people don’t understand this.

OMG SO HAPPY YOU REACTED TO THIS

I think that was one of her best live performances

So I can't remember if you did this already, but you should listen to Secret Love Song II live from the Search. I think you'd enjoy it.

yess i was waiting for this video

This was great. Thank youuu

Damn I love your channel so much

I think as she’s gotten older she’s developed even more control of her voice which is insane. She has a much more full, powerful sounding voice even though she isn’t that much louder. As you said, her old “style” was weak or bad this is just a different thing for her entirely. I think some of those “whiny” tones she did earlier on where just the way she sounds because she was a teenager. Now it sounds intentional and its amazing. And I totally agree that “Happier Than Ever” really helped her develop her voice artistically and helped her gain the confidence you can hear now in her recordings as well as live performances.

Thank you for always making sure to address these "kinda toxic" comments some people do. Billie Eilish is so unique, I feel every word she says, it's like a spell! Feels so good to hear how she is experimenting with the way she articulates her voice and I'm loving every part of it. Love your channel and the way you coach! ❤️

I think Billie is experimenting with her voice and music, I think she's trying to see what she's capable of. I have always loved her voice and her music, but I can definitely hear some vocal improvements from her music now compared to her older songs. You can tell she is way more confident which is awesome to see how far she's come! I'm a huge Billie fan and think she's not only a talented singer, song writer and dancer I think she is also very aware and has a nice sense of humor. I think we can all agree that Billie is a wonderful person all around! ♡

Oh my god, the way she performed this is just so beautiful. You can really hear the emotion in it. Reminds me a bit of SIA. I'm in love!

I really wanna see you react to Anne Hathaway singing on Kelly Clarkson’s show!

Makes me think of her performance as Sally! Im sure these changes will help her hit more constantly the high notes and I feel like she sings more passionately with this kind of voice!

Thankyou i am waiting for this

I love how she sounds here ! The open vowels are beautiful

I WAS WAITING FOR THIS !!!!!! Hahahha

I started vaping a lot recently and my usually strong voice feels shaky and my softer note cracks.

WAS WAITING FOR THIS.

Please react to deja vu by olivia at the billboard women in music event. Everyone says her voice has changed and only Tristan can give us an in depth analysis as to why that is!

I clicked sooo fast 🥰🥰 love your videos 😍

SOOO EXCITED TO SEE THHISSS
