Billie Eilish: Tiny Desk (Home) Concert

  • The Tiny Desk is working from home for the foreseeable future. Introducing NPR Music's Tiny Desk (home) concerts, bringing you performances from across the country and the world. It's the same spirit - stripped-down sets, an intimate setting - just a different space.
    Aug. 26, 2020 | Stephen Thompson -- It didn't take long for Billie Eilish to become one of the biggest pop stars in the world, sweep the Grammy Awards' major categories and release the latest James Bond theme. And today, at just 18, she and her brother, Finneas, have accomplished what no one has been able to do for five and a half months: perform a Tiny Desk concert in what certainly appears to be the NPR Music offices.
    Of course, due to safety concerns, even the NPR Music staff can't set foot in the building that houses Bob Boilen's desk. But if you look over Eilish's shoulder, there's no mistaking the signs that she's appearing at the Tiny Desk in its present-day form: On the last day before staff began working from home, I took home the Green Bay Packers helmet that sat on the top shelf - the one Harry Styles had signed a few weeks earlier - for safe keeping. In this performance, that spot is empty.
    So how the heck did they do it?
    Honestly, it's best that you watch the whole video to experience the extent of the technical feat - which, in the spirit of Eilish's Saturday Night Live performance, they're willing to share with you. And thankfully, we still have our ways of photographing the desk, even if the room has fallen silent.
    So settle in for a welcome jolt of Tiny Desk innovation, not to mention two of the excellent standalone singles Billie Eilish has released in the past year: "my future" and "everything i wanted." And, seriously, be sure to watch until the very end.

    "everything i wanted"

      Tbh, I cannot decide whom I like more- Finneas or Billie. Each is fantastic in what they do.
      Nevertheless, I lean towards his side a little bit because he is the one writing songs for her and for himself. And their music sounds totally different. It's almost impossible to believe that one person wrote them all.
      Unmatched pair. Ever.

      Also with all the comments on how hee voice has improved na she had it right out of the gate. I remember hearing Ocean Eyes for the first time then seeing some live performances of it and I couldn't believe how hauntingly lovely this tween kids voice was. The control perfect pitch phrasing it was there from the beginning.

      Yes he is most definitely not under-rated. He will never be as famous as Billie unless people buy and stream his solo music. If you care about that sort of thing, that is what you should do. He probably couldn't care less - his life is great as it is & he is not burden with needing security guards in his private life. He has talked about how he dislikes being called "underrated". I personally find Billie charismatic and unusual, plus she has a velvet voice and she owns the stage. I find Finneas' solo music too adult contemporary.

He couldn't have won more solo Grammys as he didn't present any solo content to them for nomination. It doesn't just magically happen. 5 Grammys is far more than almost anyone could win in their dreams. He has a fantastic reputation in the industry and is not underrated at all. He is just not as famous as Billie and never will be unless he has solo hit records. That will happen if you buy them and encourage others to. If not, he won't. Period. There is a vast difference between "underrated" and "not a superstar".

    I usually used to not like her at all until i heard this acustic versions...Now i'm in love with them and i come here 2 or 3 times a week to enjoy GOOD AND TALENTED artists. Her voice is the most soothing sound in the world and the way she feels every note is just mesmerizing. Much love to both of them. I hope they keep pursuing music and don't let themselves get bought by big corpo money.
