Hostage is more about a toxic relationship. Billie playing the obsessive and manupilating partner. The music video is a perfect depiction of the song. Her dancing is acting is so emotive.
I remember being 14 and hearing idontwannabeyouanymore ALL THE TIME lol Something about someone your age singing exactly what you feel hits different, I have to thank Billie for getting me trough the toughest time in my life, all the songs in this EP were overplayed by younger me and it's been a while since I've heard them so nostalgia hit me a bit now hehe
In this EP obviously the lyrics will be a little more “childish”, but some already mature for their age: Billie was only 13-15 and Finneas 17-19 when they recorded it, but I think the songs are really good, beautiful and Billie charisma in her voice there at that age WOW🔥🥰 I can’t wait to see this reaction!
I’ve been a MASSIVE Billie fan for 7 years , one of the mains from her first releases. I JUST realized when she said “my boys bein sus, he was shady enough. But now he’s just a shadow” she meant that he’s so shady he’s become darker and now he’s a shadow symbolically
One of the things about Billie is that she plays a character while writing a song, she might not experience the things she sings about, she always says that it's not necessary to be heart broken or in love to Write about lovesongs, as we see in bellyache she plays a character of psychopath, killing her lovers and friends in run.
That’s really mind blowing how someone can be that good at that age. but did you know? Billie was inspired by Aurora (she’s a singer too) and she WROTE her song FROM 7th YEARS OLD! Insane! on one of billie interview she said that she watch Aurora & at that moment she knew she want to sing like her (carriers) so I really wish you check Aurora, she’s sound like magical creatures from the tale. And her stuff is so different, talking about the earth & love & human issue 🤍✨
Finneas is the sole songwriter for "Ocean Eyes", "Watch", "6 ft. Under" [not on an album], "When the Party's Over", "My Strange Addiction" [the last 2 on WWAFAWDWG]. I love this EP - Billie does sound younger, but there's cleverness, and wit which belies her years. I'm 69 [67 when I first heard Billie & Finneas] - On Copycat, she's talking about others who are being 'fake' when they copy her. And "idontwannabeyouanymore" is 100 % Billie speaking to herself [no guys in that one] - it's almost my favorite of all Billie's - I
y'all should check out one of her earliest songs that's not on this EP. it's called Six Feet Under. she even has a live performance. I first heard it on the TV show Shadowhunters. actually you should just check out every "bonus" song she has. Six Feet Under, Bored, Come out and Play, B*tches Broken Hearts, Lovely, Everything i Wanted, No Time to Die, Lo Vas a Olvidar, When I Was Older, TV, The 30th, Never Felt So Alone, What Was I Made For? ❤
i’m prettyyyyy sure dsam is the most streamed EP off all time. i literally never get tired of her music lmao. the EP is 6 years old and i’m still streaming it like every other week. her voice is insane and she’s only getting better
You guys should check her brothers solo work too. Finneas is amazing! His album Optimist is really good! Loving your videos, really sweet that you guys get to have this time together, makes me miss my dad 💕
patiently waiting for billies new album to drop, hopefully later this year FINGERS CROSSED!! finneas recently said in a podcast that they're about 1/3 of the way done
party favour is about someone breaking up with someone on their birthday but i think she never actually experienced it she and finneas just liked the idea of a voice message as a song ig
The story behind Ocean eyes is that the production they did together, Billie wanted something similar to Runaway by Aurora and the production needed to be perfect for contemporary dance, so they created the production that was perfect for that dance and there's the video here where she (13 year old) was dancing to that song: ruclips.net/video/hG4lT4fxj8M/видео.html From here they decided to create songs with “(artist) question and (audience) answer”, a production technique to entertain the audience completely, make the audience participate in your performance which could be perfect for her to entertain the whole crowd as a HUGE performer without dancers etc and honestly she is the only female artist i have ever seen have THAT much control over the audience with that power even David Grohl (Nirvana, Foo fighters) said her level as performer, her connection with the crowd is like Morrissey, Fugazi for the power she has in her hands …he also said she is a revolution, Billie in her performance put together alternative pop music, hip hop performance and the control of a rock band … incredible in fact she is the youngest headliner in history of Glastonbury, Coachella, Reading Leeds festival .. and at just 17 years old she did this live and made history for the biggest and loudest crowd in Reading Leeds history… this girl is a force of nature, here are some videos trust me watch this: ruclips.net/video/SnpHXl8R6Ik/видео.html ruclips.net/video/FifTXWHcU8g/видео.html ruclips.net/video/aisAPO3CVoI/видео.html ruclips.net/video/Vr-jfqR27VI/видео.html Here in this lives she was only 15/16 years old, the crowd 🤯 ruclips.net/video/SxoRryWApic/видео.html and this is nothing, there are so many videos of her shows where everyone sings all her songs, goosebumps every time .. here an article written by a famous Billboard , Grammys , Rolling Stone etc journalist who explained how Billie had the same power as certain legends of the past, ofc we will see in the future, but for her powerful charisma, stage presence, a musical force with a total connection with her music and audience like a legend it’s really impressive and she is only 20 years old…. www.forbes.com/sites/stevebaltin/2022/04/09/why-the-billie-eilish-phenomenon-is-truly-powerful-for-music-and-fans/amp/
The only song where Billie didn't write any of the lyrics was Ocean Eyes, their very first song that they released on SoundCloud, that's how they got noticed. Every other song, Billie either wrote 50/50 or all of it.
@Oatmilllk Nope. FINNEAS wrote and produced "watch" and a few other songs on that album ALL BY HIMSELF. There are songs where billie has zero credit. I'm sick of people getting it wrong. Either check your facts or shut up. 😂🙄
Just to let you know..there’s an actual music video for “ocean eyes” that billie made..she’s in it..with interpretive dancing/dancers. It looks like it was made around the age of 13/14’ish
Great reaction! You should do her singles and covers, like lovely, everything I wanted, the end of the world, the 30th, no time to die, that would be awesome
Yes yes yes this was the first thing I ever heard by Billie as well. I would love to see you guys do more pop girlies. Maybe “Sour” by Olivia Rodrigo. 🙂
If you want to hear another song where she has a lot of Amy Winehouse vibes and it was sung around this time frame as well... I'd recommend listening to Bitches Broken Hearts by Billie. Its a very soulful jazzy song.
Hey, I’m a new subscriber but I just watched dozens of videos of yours, my favorite rapper is JID for the past 6 years. I was just wondering if you are ever planning to react to dicaprio 2. It’s personally my favorite JID album it’s amazing
Are you going to explore the artisty of the official Billie music videos starting with like when the partys over / Bellyache / you should see me in a crown 👑/ etc...
Whoa , watch sounds like it could be a b side on pure heroin by Lorde (Maybe she was an influence on Billie ). Mostly heard her newer tracks , this was an interesting listen ! Her vocal style from where she starts, to where she is now (is massive).
Hostage is more about a toxic relationship. Billie playing the obsessive and manupilating partner. The music video is a perfect depiction of the song. Her dancing is acting is so emotive.
Yeah, I love the video, it implies that she is a spider keeping her partner hostage in her web its great
Toxic,like mee

same!
Same

I can’t wait to see this reaction!
Fun fact: this EP has spent 250 weeks on the Billboard 200 Album Chart, and still charting. And is the Most streamed female EP of all-time on Spotify.
And the 5th female “album” most streaming there, longest EP of all time on Billboard 200, biggest selling EP of all time!
billie had part in the writing on entire this album except for like 2 songs
ocean eyes is easily in the top 10 of her discography
Idontwannabeyouanymore is probably my favourite song of hers ever… that or everything I wanted
I’ve been a MASSIVE Billie fan for 7 years , one of the mains from her first releases. I JUST realized when she said “my boys bein sus, he was shady enough. But now he’s just a shadow” she meant that he’s so shady he’s become darker and now he’s a shadow symbolically

I love that you and your dad get to spend this time together. Bonding over music is so special. Really enjoy your show man. Cheers
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching

I JUST DISCOVERED HER RECENTLY!!! I absolutely love her music, it is so beautiful i’m so glad I found it

You've got to hear out billie's new ep "guitar songs". Probably her best written songs so far
Just saw her perform TV live yesterday, was unbelievable
i’m prettyyyyy sure dsam is the most streamed EP off all time. i literally never get tired of her music lmao. the EP is 6 years old and i’m still streaming it like every other week. her voice is insane and she’s only getting better
i would LOVE to hear both of your opinions on finneas' solo work, he's genuinely one of the most talented songwriters i've seen in a long time!
I'm glad you saw past the childish references to see the mature themes, cadences, and artistic skill. This brother and sister duo are unbeatable.
You guys should check her brothers solo work too. Finneas is amazing! His album Optimist is really good! Loving your videos, really sweet that you guys get to have this time together, makes me miss my dad 💕

Billie wrote these songs too! Billie and Finneas shared 50/50 writing on all songs. Some of them like Listen before I go were majority Billie

Love these reactions! I saw your Twenty One Pilots shirt last video and thought it was a hint for this one. Can’t wait for a TØP review someday! 🤞
Billie is so freaking good!
You should check out her two newest songs “guitar songs.” They make me cry but oh so good…we have the exact same taste in music.
Thank you I love your reactions to Billie ! Please do her music videos 🙏
copycat was actually based off of a girl who was copying billie's instagram posts after she initially got famous from ocean eyes
i love u guys sm let him react so her other singles that aren’t on albums PLEASEEE
Just to let you know..there’s an actual music video for “ocean eyes” that billie made..she’s in it..with interpretive dancing/dancers. It looks like it was made around the age of 13/14’ish
always love watching your reactions to her music. you guys should listen to the singles also and her other (sorta) ep “guitar songs” !
another amazing reaction of Billie!❤ this EP is a work of art, for real.
Great reaction! You should do her singles and covers, like lovely, everything I wanted, the end of the world, the 30th, no time to die, that would be awesome
Aww, sucha nice review ♡ amazing siblingship! Love u, Billieee 🤍✨️

Would love to see you guys do finneas he got amazing solo projects

Would love to a reaction to Finneas’ songs I only know one which is “A concert six months from now” which is phenomenal
If you want to hear another song where she has a lot of Amy Winehouse vibes and it was sung around this time frame as well... I'd recommend listening to Bitches Broken Hearts by Billie. Its a very soulful jazzy song.
please react to both of sza's albums!!
Hey, I’m a new subscriber but I just watched dozens of videos of yours, my favorite rapper is JID for the past 6 years. I was just wondering if you are ever planning to react to dicaprio 2. It’s personally my favorite JID album it’s amazing
Thanks for subbing! And yes definitely will do dicaprio 2!

Keep up the good work guys, you deserve more recognition. You'll be at 100k subs sooner than you think! Maybe try some Jorja Smith at some point?
Appreciate that thank you ❤️ and absolutely. She’s one of my favorite artists
Billie writes almost 100% of what she sings. "I Don't Want To....." was to herself, she saw she needed change.
Are you going to explore the artisty of the official Billie music videos starting with like when the partys over / Bellyache / you should see me in a crown 👑/ etc...
Yes!
