Her voice sounds terrific (and I’m listening thru an iPhone speaker). Don’t know how I feel about the song, but what a performance.

Lol at the hype, this is okay but if anyone else released this noone would care.

The esthero comparison is otm. I couldn’t quite place what it reminded me of but that’s it... I don’t hear that much difference between say “that girl” and this.

Not hating the production is great and she’s a very competent singer but as a song it’s very non-descript ripe for some cafe del mar compilation.

Sounds influenced by Billie Eilish.

"my future" is amazing... there's something understated about the groove that displays fluency w/ the reference points but isn't trying to show off that reminds me of velvet rope

For those interested – she’s doing a $30livestream concert today/tomorrow (depending on where & when you’re reading this): https://livestream.billieeilish.com/

anyone watching? I wonder how much she's making off this; worldwide, $30 a pop, preshow is pretty lined up with sponsors (beats, Verizon, fender). Good for her.

Per RS: https://www.rollingstone.com/pro/news/youtube-billie-eilish-infinite-bad-guy-video-1093765/
To celebrate that milestone, and the fact that Eilish’s smash hit is one of the most-covered songs the platform has ever seen, YouTube is releasing what the company calls “the world’s first infinite video,” which takes short clips from tens of thousands of “Bad Guy” covers and randomly links them together, creating a new visual every time. Thanks to AI that can recognize song structure, the clips are always strung together to fit the sequence of the sing.In truth, the “infinite” video isn’t actually infinite. But, according to YouTube, there are 1.46 x 10^100 years of video combinations, so it would be impossible for a person to see the exact same sequence more than once in their lifetime. The video was created with 10.5 million seconds of digital content.

Ugh I hate that I kind of love her now but there’s no denying she’s an astounding performer and most of their compositions and production suit her to a T.
I’ve even switched into thinking “my future” sounded pleasantly generic into thinking it’s one of my favorite songs of the year.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Sunday, 6 December 2020 06:37 (three years ago) link
I think what’s really standing out to me after seeing a few of her live videos is how much confidence she has in her own voice and how often it’s stripped from too many things going on except for layers of vocals (e.g. “my future”, “when the party’s over”, “everything I wanted”...).
Anyways, she’s won me with the mellow ballads. Still not a fan on her more “fun” side (therefore I am, bad guy...) but I do love “bury a friend” so I might be getting there.

That is the rumor

she's doing a song with Rosalia which would be a lot more exciting if it wasn't for a TV show soundtrack (Euphoria)

i can't remember the last rosalía collab i actually liked (was it "con altura"??) so i fully expect this to be underwhelming

I can hear a middle ground in their sound that makes me think this could actually be good.

It is good. Are the lyrics about someone/something specific?

“This is one of my favorite songs I’ve ever written,” Eilish wrote on Instagram. “I feel very vulnerable putting this one out because I hold it so close to my heart. This is about many different situations that we’ve all either witnessed or experienced. I hope this can inspire change.”

Last night I taught myself a few Billie Eilish songs on piano; they were surprisingly fun to play. Good chords.
