    She definitely has a yesteryear vibe in her music. Her voice is a throwback to the great singers of the 40s and 50s, but updated. Tremendous emotional power. I can hear why so many people like her. I think I need to hear more.

    One of the best singers around at the moment. Her voice has a classic vibe to it in the style of Billie Holliday, whilst being modern at the same time. Gives me goosebumps and I'm a 56 years old rock fan.

    I have to say that in a world where current music is very challenging to me in its banality and corporate repetitiveness Billie Eilish stands out to me as something different and interesting. There is a core to her music that is routed in classic songs of the past but with a contemporary twist and arrangement that makes it appeal to both me and my kids and you cant say that about many artists. I hope that she stays true to her self and her music and does not get dragged down by the temptations of life and wealth and fame and then maybe in 50 years people will discover her work like you did with Joni Mitchell and wonder at the creativity.

    Can't sing? So open and spacious is this first tune, with her breathy voice almost crying the lyrics. Very intimate. (guess some people have trouble with intimate) So thoughtful and seemingly together. Billie has definitely listened to (and understood) some great female vocalists from the past. This second song shows wonderful, quiet emotion. (guess some people have trouble with emotion) Guess some people just don't care. And isn't that what she is singing about. Billie has now shunned her wild hair color but have not caught up to as why. As I recall, she said the change has allowed her to go outside and NOT be immediately recognized, if she is careful.
    The two of them are a great combination with soulful honesty. Yes. Too short.

    I remember recommending you watch a little of her long ago. She is unusual. I think those two are musical geniuses, and their parents just didn't want them to get ruined by the industry. I personally have liked her since Ocean Eyes, which I think they put out themselves. If you want to see something neat, she has given a video interview answering the same questions each year for the last 4-5 years, and it's interesting to hear how she changes her answers. Or doesn't, in some cases.

    2) bored (she was 15 when this was recorded)
    3) when the party’s over
    4) I love you
    5) ilomilo
    6) no time to die (live version from the Brit’s)
    7) your power
    8) everybody dies
    9) bury a friend
    10) “the end of the world” (acoustic live version..not a Billie song..but she made it hers..it’s fucking brilliant)

  • @foxandscout
    @foxandscout 2 года назад +4

    I really like her, and have from the beginning. And the song I still like best is her first: the one her brother wrote and gave to her to sing -she was 13. Ocean Eyes. It was brought her attention and contracts. It was a few years later that she had her first huge hit, Bad Guy. The people who don’t think she’s a good singer are those who think you need to belt out a song to be great. She’s not that kind of singer, and how she sings takes enormous skill that many musicians and voice teachers have pointed to.
    I also adore the Norwegian singer Aurora, and I also love her earliest song written at 12. That was 10 years ago and her fans are so devoted to her. She’s not a mega star, but attention has been steadily growing. For Billie, it seemed like all the stars were aligned for her to get such a huge following so quickly. And so many Grammys in one year! That and the internet.

    I’m callin’ it - Billie and Finneas are the Lennon/McCartney of this generation. Also, Billie writes and directs her own videos. One day if we’re lucky, she’ll direct a feature film and win an Oscar for Best Director (and Finneas would get the Oscar for Best Score). Watch (or react to) the NDA and Happier Than Ever videos and you’ll see it’s not all that far-fetched.

    If you like to know more about her art, just react/listen the whole album "happier than ever".She is an album artist. You will find the uniqueness and subtlety and obviously talent and creativity throughout the whole album. Also DON'T FORGET to pay attention to the lyrics, lyrics are the heart of her songs and and btw she directs her music videos,so it's all hers.

  • @SarahRichardsGraba
    @SarahRichardsGraba 2 года назад +4

    I like Billie Eilish and Finneas. I listened to their first full length album a bunch of times when it came out, definitely a "vibe" as you say. The first song I ever heard was you should see me in a crown and I was like, what is this 😂 then just seeing her style in music videos, I was a fan that she wasn't super "sexy" like so many female pop artists. Not that there's anything wrong with that, more power to you if you feel empowered! But it was refreshing and different. I think she can get overhyped a bit but in general I find her just as talented as hundreds of indie folk/indie pop artists that have similar sounds. Somehow she just blew up and became a "pop star" haha

  • @integerdivision

    I'm not familiar with Billie Eilish at all, so I'm doing a first reaction too. Rick Beato is GREAT. I always learn from him. So, I'm not falling in love with her, and I think that is because the things she is singing about are not things that I am going through at my point in life. I can see how someone going through the experiences she is singing about would really love her songs. Her voice is beautiful, her vocal control is great, it's the song itself that does not speak to me, but I'd be interested to hear what else she does. She's very young, she has years and years to explore all of the different avenues she can go down. Hmm. I like the lyrics a lot. I do like precise enunciation, maybe it's her slurring of the words that I don't care for. The description of her childhood is disturbing. Every child has to learn to deal with separation anxiety, Allowing your child to sleep in your bed year after year is not a healthy way to help your child deal with it. She is still struggling to find her independence, the lyrics of the song are hopeful, but the tone of the music is not. I hope she doesn't follow Karen Carpenter's path. I'm sorry to hear that anyone would make fun of her.

  • @Leigh53-k6h
    @Leigh53-k6h 2 года назад +5

    I love her voice; it's so expressive! She made a comment on James Corden that one of her songs was basically just two notes but she uses them creatively. I think the people who don't like her may be reacting to some of her more graphic videos. These particular songs are not the typical ones that I have heard, maybe she's more laid back than she was in her earlier days? I don't know.

  • @pablozee6359
    @pablozee6359 2 года назад +3

    Everyone has their own tastes, but you hearing so much Billie hate is puzzling. She and Finneas are the real deal. She has a depth beyond her years and beyond most pop music I hear. Her voice is absolutely mesmerizing and emotional to me. Sure, she has a few songs geared more towards the teeny and younger crowd, but there is plenty of music in her repertoire that is genuine, deep, and emotional regardless of your age. Definitely worth a deep dive.

    You should react to her singing "No Time to Die" live at the Brit Awards. She knocked it out of the park. What's crazy is that in an interview just before the show, she was worried about not being able to sing it. She's so humble. A great rising star. You should react to his latest "Only a Lifetime"

    Love the format, especially the part where you actually read the lyrics. Despite their great music, they really shine in their lyrics. Very mature for teens writing songs.
    Metal heads started hating her when she became more popular than headline acts at major music festivals. Her performances are more lit than old-timer metal bands doing the same old stuff. She's new and creative. Hera are examples of her live shows:

    I can only enjoy Billie in small doses but fully recognize her talent and that she and Finneas have crafted some very good music.

They are incredibly close siblings.

    Choosing this as a first representation of Billie Eilish is cool... But it totally doesn't show what Billie is about, this is like a un-plugged version and does not represent the songs unless you've already heard the studio version production (which are very different)
    Actually most in the metal & Rock community LOVES ! Billie Eilish. Her studio versions are way more important to listen to because Finneas's productions are a huge part of her music and to see her official Videos is another huge part of her total artistry
    If your going to do a live performance do Billie's cover of Michael Jackson's BAD
    I don't feel this reaction is a true representation of why all ages love Billie (I'm 61 years old Classic Rock guy & Billie's album "WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP WERE DO WE GO ?" Change my life)
    Here's some suggestions:
    Please react to
    Official videos of "When the partys over" / Bury a Friend / "You should see me in a crown" (vertical version only) / " idontwanttobeyouanymore " (vertical version only)
    OR THE OFFICIAL VIDEO OF "HAPPIER THAN EVER" Which song chances are, she will perform on SNL this weekend

    First I've heard by her as well. She's obviously very talented and has a lovely, interesting voice, but to me the noisy breathing on the first song was super-distracting. It got to the point where I started losing track of the song and was just bracing myself for the next unpleasantly loud inhale. And then that ruined the second song for me as well, because even though her breathing was not nearly so noticeable on that song, I found myself tensing up again and again, waiting to hear it. I didn't *want* to react that way - it was like the first song had trained me well! So I will take a break and try the second song again another time, maybe it won't bother me so much then.
    Otherwise I would have really liked this. Anyone know if that's a deliberate part of her performance style, in general?

    I agree that it's crazy to say that she cannot sing. Her voice is unique, and the way she expresses emotions, plus the deep lyrics, is more than enough proof that she is an outstanding artist. But I can understand people who do not like her songs.

    I’ve tried to like her but just cannot. Not when I compare her to other current female singers. Aurora might be closest to this vibe, but I think so much better.

    I notice that you concentrate on older music/artists, so you get all my age group 66 praising you for listening to our era, then when you choose to react to a modern young artist, of all the people you choose Billie Eilish, I love listening to new music, but she is the most boringly monotonous singer today, I have tried many times to listen to her music, but just can't, so over rated in my opinion, give people a try, like Harry Styles, Yungblud, Years and Years, Jessie J, Lady Ga Ga, Mabel, 5SOS, Twenty One Pilots, sorry I could go on and on with better examples than Billie Eilish,
