66 here. Grew up loving all kinds of music. She’s amazing. Blows me away with her voice, creativity and how grounded she is. Looking forward to seeing how she evolves!!
The 3 backup singers are somewhat known artists themselves! Billie is a fan of each of them and invited them for this performance because of their unique talents!
Great reaction. Billie's first loves are dance and videography. She directs and color grades all her videos, hates zooms, all prime lenses. Yes, that's her brother on guitar.
"Hostage" is her most underrated video and song imho. I love her newer stuff the most but Hostage is a deep cut of pure gold and the video is remarkable in its creativity. Cheers. P.S. Wonderfully thoughtful reaction, btw, thank you!
I’m a guy in my late 40’s and I’m a Billie superfan. I’ve seen her live twice. Once in 2022. Once in 2023. I’ll be seeing her a 3rd time next month on the tour for this new album. Can’t wait to hear her sing these new songs live. If you want another performance by Billie and Finneas that will give you a punch to the gut and knock the wind out of you? Pleaaaase react to the live performance of “i love you” live from the Greek theatre. Billie has a hard time keeping her emotions in check for that one. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve cried listening to this song. It’s very vulnerable and relatable.
Billie's voice has matured from her start at thirteen. She has a fuller vocal range now, that said she has always had a unique voice. Her small live performances are more captivating then the studio recordings. Great example is The 30th (Live From Singapore’s Cloud Forest)
"I Love You" live at the Greek Theatre for feels. Her cover of "Bad" is also great. For art video, pretty much all of them, but I'll say "Xanny", "Bad Guy" and "When the Party's Over" are a good start.🎉
I’m a bit of a music snob and don’t usually really like pop music (I’m not proud of being a snob but I’ve accepted it) so it makes me really happy to see Billie get her due. It’s crazy how she can be so popular (despite being so experimental), so critically acclaimed, and yet still so underrated.
Yes ! As a classical musician, I tend to not like pop very much because of the laziness. I’m amazed at how Billie Eilish managed to get so much mainstream success with complex, experimental and overall clever pop. I’m really a fan of her music, the quality in writing and vocal subtlety is unquestionable.
One thing I love about Billie is you never know what the next song will sound like. Her music is so diverse, but it never disappoints. I look forward to your future reactions.
billie released a music video for her song chihiro recently which is very artistic and meaningful as well as the song, and I think it fits very well your description of what you want to watch, I think you would really enjoy it so consider putting it on your playlist!! It is as well my favorite music video and song from her!! It’s truly amazing + she directed the video as well which makes it 1000 times better!!
one thing to keep in mind is her age - some of these songs recommended in the comments were recorded when she was 13-16 years old, where her voice was much higher and her songs had a lighter sound to them. not at all a bad thing but her voice has obviously matured at 22, and has a deeper quality to it (as you’ve seen in this performance). so checking the date of the performances/videos you may watch in the future could help to illustrate to you her vocal and technical progression over time. though I must say, you’ve started with a fantastic performance so the bar is set quite high!
Watching people fall in love with Billie (and finneas) is honestly so magical. Her live performances really seal the deal. New to your channel so I don’t know if you’ve previously reacted to any WILLOW tracks, but I get the feeling you’d love her tiny desk performance. Another young artist with unbelievable musicianship 💜
I'm so excited for you to look at her catalog!!! I think when it comes to Billie, expect the unexpected. Please just give it all a shot because she is like no one else with her artistry. She puts so much into everything that has to do with not only the lyrics but with the artistic direction. She has been directing her music videos since the beginning of her career at 14/15 years old. She can't be put into one sole category, and honestly, I don't think of her as a pop artist. She is her own genre, and that is what makes her very special.
Love the stripped down Billie, and let's not forget the amazing Finneas. I'm convinced she can do any style. Would love a duet with Ren, but I'm guessing the Label would get in the way.
Her brother has music of his own, and he just dropped his second album - For Cryin' Out Loud. Definitely something else to check out. And yes, Lonely is one of her really good early songs. It's so hard to believe that she started at 13!
FINNEAS, her brother, also makes his own music alongside producing Billie's. He's on the same wavelength! Consider giving him a listen if you haven't already.
One live performance by her got me very emotional. It was her and her brother covering ‘End of the World’ by Rob Dickinson. She was younger, but still so capable of conveying depth of emotion which seems beyond her years. ❤ from a neurodivergent Aussie watcher.
Don’t know which videos to recommend, but as far as songs…Lovely, All The Good Girls Go to Hell, My Power, Goldwing, Halley’s Comet, NDA, Chihiro, Bury A Friend, Copycat. There are so many more, but those are the ones that stick out for me. She’s an amazing artist.
Billie and Fineas are both geniuses. It is always awe inspiring as another artist to see two people cooperate so flawlessly. Their art is nothing short of a masterpiece every time, but I find their lyrical imagery amazing on the song 'All the good girls go to hell", and really REALLY love the visuals that come with it.
Ha what you said about her having depth and some people being just pretty… in one of her songs she sings “you were easy on the eyes but looks can be deceiving” and “I used to think you were shy but maybe you just had nothing on your mind” 😅
You’re in for such a treat. Don’t worry about “poppy” even her youngest poppiest songs are sonically and visually interesting. What I truly recommend is looking at her releases chronologically and seeing if a video exists. There’s never going to be a video/song that won’t impress you. You’ll have favorites but never be bored. But her first song she was 13, she’s now 20. She goes through a lot and release order matters. You’ll get to know her through her music. You’ll be so proud of her by the end.
I recently have gotten really into Billie's music. I personally love her attention to detail and artistic vision in her music videos. I would definitely recommend the music videos for CHIHIRO and NDA, their probably my two personal favorites, I feel the camera work in CHIHIRO is incredible. Great Reaction!
Enjoyed ur reaction, big BiFI fan here. Billie was considered alternative but now she is the top artist on Spotify so is she pop? You mention 'grittier and better', I think all her songs have depth and creative writing. Her latest album (with this song) was created as a full listen, with no pre-release singles. I'd suggest "What Was I Made For', it won an Oscar and Grammy. (she and her brother Finneas have 19 Grammys and 4 Oscars). Some of her biggest hits were not on albums,. 'Everything I Wanted', No Time to Die, Lovely, What Was I Made For, When I was Older (fav of mine). Do more!!
I'm glad to hear she doesn't really do pop. I think I just assumed she did because of the wide range of younger fans. I am sure I will be hearing for myself and become more informed.
They both write the lyrics and song; he is the producer also. She has directed many of their videos. All the amazon music is beautiful. Her new album is amazing.
Love your reaction and comments. There are three more songs from this Amazon Song line session you might enjoy: Skinny, La Amoure, and Birds of a Feather. The ladies singing with her are friends and fellow artists who each have their own thing. Billie does direct many of her own music videos, and the concepts are all hers.
Yay when you said goose bumps that’s my favourite part!! I’m so glad you liked her. She is such an amazingly sophisticated artistic musician. It’s actually shocking to me that she is as popular as she is because she is so not a “pop” person, she’s so alternative and experimental and - like I said, sophisticated.
im scratching my head to look for a pop-py song of billie... coz to me most of all are feels stuff, and im also an older fan in my 40s... so all Billie songs are unique to me ;) maybe Lunch is more pop-py? anyways, yes, she has such depth and an old soul. from the first breakout song, Ocean Eyes with it's old school blanket and hand movement music video (which was her 14th birthday present), to the latest MV of Birds of a Feather. :) you can also see the behind the scenes of some of her MVs like NDA, Everything I wanted, What I was Made For, Chihiro, When the Party's Over, etc...
Love your reaction! I appreciate you acknowledging and noticing things like ambient, lighting, setup etc but especially the vulnerability you, as well as the rest of us feel when we listen to this. 👏🏼
Every song on your watchlist is 🔥 incredibly talented siblings brought up very well by incredibly talented parents. I’m 53 and I am such a fan of Billie and Finneas’s music. It’s a great rabbit hole and thanks for sharing this reaction!
Billie is 22 years old. She and her brother, Finneas, have 19 (I think) Grammys between them and they are two time Oscar winners. I would say about 80% of her catalogue is made up of ballads. The poppy, mainstream radio tracks are the minority. Enjoy!
When Billie burst onto the scene in 2017 I didn’t pay any attention. I had a chance to see her in February 2018 and I’m still kicking myself for not going. I was a reluctant fan but after hearing her do “ idontwannabeyouanymore” live for Colors I was an instant fan. There are 3 more songs from this session that I highly recommend. If you want to hear her and Finneas do any covers “ End of the World “ ( absolutely incredible. I cry every time) , You Don’t Get Me High Anymore “ and “Bad” . All were when she was 16 or 17
i’d love to suggest a major throwback, just to witness the difference (but brilliance) of her voice then and now. please react to her cover of the end of the world on BBC radio!
Fun fact: The two blonde background singers are siblings and billies childhood friends. When she put her first song „ocean eyes“ out she‘d come to their house and they would sing harmonies together:) Really enjoy your reactions!
You need to listen to song written for the barrie movie What was I made for? She and Finneas won another Oscar for it. Keep a box of tissues on the ready when you listen to it. Lovely and Ocean eyes must see. Love your reactions!
I really like your way of vommenting and editing. I think these are good choices to watch. I love her visual artistry, she draws as well and used to draw her ideas for videos and then started to direct them herself. For ocean eyes there is also a dance lusic video of her if you are interested in seeing this side of her as well. It's her only one where she dances
I will have to check the dancing one out. I got a chuckle out of the, hopefully, misspelled word. Otherwise, I have to assume that my vommenting means my comments come out like vomit. 😁
i recommend watching some of billies best vocals there's heaps of videos that include tons of clips on RUclips that way you can really get a glimpse on her she also put her first song out at 13!!
L'amour de ma Vie (live), No Time to Die (live), What Was I Made For (live), Skinny (live) -- there are SO MANY great ones of her live performances you should check out. :)
Hey! I read that you also like Finneas' (Billie's brother) voice, so you should react to his new album called 'For Cryin' Out Loud'. I think you would really enjoy it and I would love to see your full reaction.
Subscribed for The Warning but also love Billie! Would love to see you check out her song 'The Greatest' and the music videos for 'Bury A Friend' and 'Happier Than Ever'. Live performance wise, worth checking out the BBC Live Lounge performance of 'Getting Older', the SNL performance of 'Male Fantasy' and her BRITs performance of 'No Time To Die'.
I would totally recommend “The Greatest” (live)on Stephen Colbert! It honestly showed a different side of her vocal range and progression she’s had over the years!
For live performances I recommend Ilomilo and Listen Before I Go from the Steve Jobs theater...on the second one there she plays the piano as well and controls the silence in the entire theater with emotion.
Love the reaction! I personally am a huuuge fan of her since 2017, she’s really really talented and it’s so good to finally see people acknowledging it. My favorite songs are: my future, listen before I go, hostage and ilomilo, you should really check em out❤ have a nice day!
You have a nice day as well. It's funny that I can never tell which comments are going to strike me enough to reply even though I read them all. Something about your Have a nice day just hit me right today. Thanks.
Yes please do more billie! Do the greatest ( on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert) or do Birds of a feather song on amazon music it was so good! Love your reaction !
I'm new to your channel, but have you ever reacted to Yebba? She's "your favorite singer's favorite singer." But if you like this, you will love Yebba. Start with "My Mind" then the NPR Tiny Desk concert. Her background singers are phenomenal. And Yebba is unmatched.
i suggest you react to her newer music if you like her vocals in this video, since I feel like her newer music definitely showcase her voice the most (what was I made for, skinny, the 30th and the greatest are all good ones :)
Of artistic videos from her there is a lot. I can recommend "Hostage", "Bury a Friend", "NDA", "When the Party's over", "Chihiro", "Happier than Ever", and even though "Bad Guy" is a Pop Song, the video is quite interesting.
love ur reaction and i think u should react to "everything i wanted" by her,it's about suicide and how her brother is always there for her through her hard times
Her most artistic videos: - When the Party’s Over - You should see me in a crown (vertical video) - Ocean Eyes - idontwannabeyouanymore - Hostage - Lovely - Bury a Friend - All the good girls go to hell (make sure to watch this one AFTER bury a friend) - Xanny - Your Power - What was I Made for - Everything I Wanted - Not my responsibility - NDA - Male Fantasy - Happier Than Ever - My Future - Chihiro - Birds of a Feather I also think you’ll enjoy these songs that only have lyric videos: - TV - The 30th - ilomilo - skinny - getting older - Billie Bossa nova - the greatest There are also some very specific legendary live videos that are a must watch: - copycat (mahogany sessions) - end of the world (bbc radio 1) - you don’t get me high anymore (bbc radio 1) - bad (like a version) - bitches broken hearts (Vevo live) - no time to die (Brit awards) - I love you (Greek theatre) - L’amour de ma vie (live Amazon) - come out and play (Apple Music awards) - when the party’s over (Howard Stern) - All the good girls go to hell (Howard stern) The somewhat more pop songs I can think of, but whose videos are creative and kinda interesting and to be honest the production is so quirky that it basically makes up for the fact that it can be mistaken for a pop song, I’d still recommend them but maybe at a later point once you e watched her more artistic videos and are still craving more Billie which will inevitably happen: - bad guy - lunch - watch - therefore I am - lost cause
P.s. I didn’t copy paste this I literally always write out my comments specific to the video I’m watching and off the top of my head. And I specifically chose videos I think you’ll enjoy in particular. I didn’t list everything 😊
Now that is a longer comment I can get behind. You seemed to really take time to make it a response to what I said in the video and didn't just list a bunch of stuff that wasn't relevant. Good on you. I appreciate that and I will save this to a file as a reference. Well done.
P.s. it’s a good thing that you said you’d rather not have long comments because that’s very much my default, as Billie is a special interest of mine and I do tend to go on and on so I felt totally called out haha but not in a bad way. I understand, though, some people just copy paste facts. I just take these reaction videos as an excuse to write out my thoughts. No copy pasting happening here! Also I do that because I know that comments are good for the video’s algorithm so I don’t feel too bad. 😅
Thank you so much. I appreciate you taking the time and practicing brevity. I am always more likely to reply to a thoughtful, heartfelt comment personally than just give a "Thanks for the info" reply. It takes so much time to go through comments some days when you'd rather be creating something new. It's all part of the give and take of reaction videos. Thanks again.
The master list! When the partys over Ocean eyes Listen before i go Zanny Lovely The 30th TV Skinny Hostage Halleys Comet Male fantasy What was I made for Ignore everything else unless u wanna get into pop/electronica/trap beats
Every time Billie opens her mouth you never know what you’re gonna get but you’re always going to be pleasantly surprised !
Omg "No time to die" (live version with a great great orchestra, from the brit awards, london) it´s just amazing!
YESSSS!!! Love that one
10000% agree!!!
It’s THE BEST version!
The audience is brutal though.
Ssssssshhhhhhh people!
@@beka3150 let people enjoy music on the own way, some people like to sing along with the artist and it's okay
54 yo Billie fan here. "When the Party's over" is soo beautiful
and has one of the best visual art ever imho.
58 year old and heard it all..grew up in the 70’..80, 90… with the best ever… just discovered her …love her music and her singing style
66 here. Grew up loving all kinds of music. She’s amazing. Blows me away with her voice, creativity and how grounded she is. Looking forward to seeing how she evolves!!
60 year old guy here. I suggest Bellyache, Hostage, Xanny and What was I Made For. All so creative, and I believe all directed by her. Billy's vision.
bellyache and hostage weren’t directed by her. after she directed “xanny” and “everything i wanted” she has been directing all of her music videos.
5:13 when he starts reacting
The 3 backup singers are somewhat known artists themselves! Billie is a fan of each of them and invited them for this performance because of their unique talents!
Great reaction. Billie's first loves are dance and videography. She directs and color grades all her videos, hates zooms, all prime lenses. Yes, that's her brother on guitar.
82 years old here and I love her singing and the creativity she and her brother possess.
"Hostage" is her most underrated video and song imho. I love her newer stuff the most but Hostage is a deep cut of pure gold and the video is remarkable in its creativity. Cheers. P.S. Wonderfully thoughtful reaction, btw, thank you!
I just went back to watch Hostage and you're right. I'd forgotten how damn good that video & song is.
It is my favorite video
Hostage is amazing. One of my top 5 from Billie.
Billie is an amazing artist. The best album of the year
I’m a guy in my late 40’s and I’m a Billie superfan. I’ve seen her live twice. Once in 2022. Once in 2023. I’ll be seeing her a 3rd time next month on the tour for this new album. Can’t wait to hear her sing these new songs live.

Billie & Ren brought this weary 53 year old heart, soul & mind back to life 🙏❤️ Love that your reacting to both these Artistic geniuses 👏👏🥰
This song is from her new album titled "Hit Me Hard And Soft" which I absolutely recommend checking out. (And her previous albums :D)
Watching people fall in love with Billie (and finneas) is honestly so magical. Her live performances really seal the deal.
New to your channel so I don’t know if you’ve previously reacted to any WILLOW tracks, but I get the feeling you’d love her tiny desk performance. Another young artist with unbelievable musicianship 💜
This performance is one for the ages. So simple and pure. Absolutely one of her best. And that’s saying a lot.
She touches your soul! She's a natural. Started at 14, she's 22 now!
I'm so excited for you to look at her catalog!!! I think when it comes to Billie, expect the unexpected. Please just give it all a shot because she is like no one else with her artistry.

Love Love Love Billie Eilish & Finneas. They’re Artistry is amazing and unique to them.
Her performance of her song “I love you” on SNL is amazing vocally as well.
Love the stripped down Billie, and let's not forget the amazing Finneas. I'm convinced she can do any style. Would love a duet with Ren, but I'm guessing the Label would get in the way.

I could watch this 100 times. It’s so beautiful. Her voice is so pretty and soothing. Nice reaction. 🌺
You have to experience, The Greatest.❤
Already have but my reaction is blocked. Trying to clear it.
FINNEAS, her brother, also makes his own music alongside producing Billie's. He's on the same wavelength! Consider giving him a listen if you haven't already.
One live performance by her got me very emotional. It was her and her brother covering ‘End of the World’ by Rob Dickinson. She was younger, but still so capable of conveying depth of emotion which seems beyond her years. ❤ from a neurodivergent Aussie watcher.
THIS !! yes i can only recommend it too, one of my favorites performance from her
Don’t know which videos to recommend, but as far as songs…Lovely, All The Good Girls Go to Hell, My Power, Goldwing, Halley’s Comet, NDA, Chihiro, Bury A Friend, Copycat. There are so many more, but those are the ones that stick out for me. She’s an amazing artist.
Billie and Fineas are both geniuses. It is always awe inspiring as another artist to see two people cooperate so flawlessly. Their art is nothing short of a masterpiece every time, but I find their lyrical imagery amazing on the song 'All the good girls go to hell", and really REALLY love the visuals that come with it.
Ha what you said about her having depth and some people being just pretty… in one of her songs she sings “you were easy on the eyes but looks can be deceiving” and “I used to think you were shy but maybe you just had nothing on your mind” 😅
You’re in for such a treat. Don’t worry about “poppy” even her youngest poppiest songs are sonically and visually interesting.
What I truly recommend is looking at her releases chronologically and seeing if a video exists. There’s never going to be a video/song that won’t impress you.
You’ll have favorites but never be bored.
But her first song she was 13, she’s now 20. She goes through a lot and release order matters. You’ll get to know her through her music. You’ll be so proud of her by the end.
I recently have gotten really into Billie's music. I personally love her attention to detail and artistic vision in her music videos. I would definitely recommend the music videos for CHIHIRO and NDA, their probably my two personal favorites, I feel the camera work in CHIHIRO is incredible. Great Reaction!
Billie's voice is so beautiful. Finneas, her brother, has a lovely song called A Concert Six Months From Now, which I really recommend a listen
I’m all about his song What They’ll Say About Us. Tears me up every time!
Enjoyed ur reaction, big BiFI fan here. Billie was considered alternative but now she is the top artist on Spotify so is she pop? You mention 'grittier and better', I think all her songs have depth and creative writing. Her latest album (with this song) was created as a full listen, with no pre-release singles. I'd suggest "What Was I Made For', it won an Oscar and Grammy. (she and her brother Finneas have 19 Grammys and 4 Oscars). Some of her biggest hits were not on albums,. 'Everything I Wanted', No Time to Die, Lovely, What Was I Made For, When I was Older (fav of mine). Do more!!
I'm glad to hear she doesn't really do pop. I think I just assumed she did because of the wide range of younger fans. I am sure I will be hearing for myself and become more informed.
Billie Eilish is something else man. There is no one like her!! ☀
They both write the lyrics and song; he is the producer also. She has directed many of their videos. All the amazon music is beautiful. Her new album is amazing.
This is my favorite song of the album. I just love her! Your reviews are great. More please.

It’s actually shocking to me that she is as popular as she is because she is so not a “pop” person, she’s so alternative and experimental and - like I said, sophisticated.
Getting choked up listening to Billie? Welcome to the club. She doesn’t sing. She emotes

listen to birds of a feather! its straight up old school pop youll love it.
PLEASE DO MORE BILLIE!!! loved this reaction, will be subscribing in hopes for more
I have two ready to edit probably tonight.
@@ige-individualgroupeffort-kenl YUHHH LESGO
Love your reaction! I appreciate you acknowledging and noticing things like ambient, lighting, setup etc but especially the vulnerability you, as well as the rest of us feel when we listen to this. 👏🏼
Every song on your watchlist is 🔥 incredibly talented siblings brought up very well by incredibly talented parents. I’m 53 and I am such a fan of Billie and Finneas’s music. It’s a great rabbit hole and thanks for sharing this reaction!
Her whole new album gives goosebumps
Billie is 22 years old. She and her brother, Finneas, have 19 (I think) Grammys between them and they are two time Oscar winners. I would say about 80% of her catalogue is made up of ballads. The poppy, mainstream radio tracks are the minority. Enjoy!
9 grammys not 19
@ She has nine and he has ten, that’s 19 between the two of them.
I HIGHLY recommend her cover of Fever, live at the Peggy Lee tribute at the Hollywood bowl
When Billie burst onto the scene in 2017 I didn’t pay any attention. I had a chance to see her in February 2018 and I’m still kicking myself for not going. I was a reluctant fan but after hearing her do “ idontwannabeyouanymore” live for Colors I was an instant fan. There are 3 more songs from this session that I highly recommend. If you want to hear her and Finneas do any covers “ End of the World “ ( absolutely incredible. I cry every time) , You Don’t Get Me High Anymore “ and “Bad” . All were when she was 16 or 17
She does some pop stuff too. This song is awasome
I really love "Happier Than Ever" and "NDA"'s music videos!
NDA music video scares the absolute crap out of me at the end 😅
Check out Billie doing Fever live with Christian Mcbride and the Count Basie Orchestra .She is really an amazing Jazz singer! 🔥
Great reactions, she really hits you in the feels emotionally, huh!
omg love your reaction sooooo much, more Billie please, i subscribe, and honestly I'm pretty sure you will liked every song of her. Thank you ❤️
i’d love to suggest a major throwback, just to witness the difference (but brilliance) of her voice then and now. please react to her cover of the end of the world on BBC radio!
She also has a different wildflower performance for colors and its also very very good. Also u should react to THE GREATEST from the late night show!
Fun fact: The two blonde background singers are siblings and billies childhood friends. When she put her first song „ocean eyes“ out she‘d come to their house and they would sing harmonies together:) Really enjoy your reactions!
That was, indeed, a fun fact that I did not know. Thanks
shes amasinggggg
Most unique performance!
No time to die (live) is such a beautiful film score for a bond movie! I would love to see you react to this.
i love hostage and the music video
I’m really looking forward to your “lovely” reaction 😊
One of the best duos in this era!
I was recommend her live performance of The Greatest on Late Night with Stephen Colbert.
You need to listen to song written for the barrie movie What was I made for? She and Finneas won another Oscar for it. Keep a box of tissues on the ready when you listen to it. Lovely and Ocean eyes must see. Love your reactions!
I really like your way of vommenting and editing. I think these are good choices to watch. I love her visual artistry, she draws as well and used to draw her ideas for videos and then started to direct them herself. For ocean eyes there is also a dance lusic video of her if you are interested in seeing this side of her as well. It's her only one where she dances
I will have to check the dancing one out. I got a chuckle out of the, hopefully, misspelled word. Otherwise, I have to assume that my vommenting means my comments come out like vomit. 😁
i recommend watching some of billies best vocals there's heaps of videos that include tons of clips on RUclips that way you can really get a glimpse on her she also put her first song out at 13!!
L'amour de ma Vie (live), No Time to Die (live), What Was I Made For (live), Skinny (live) -- there are SO MANY great ones of her live performances you should check out. :)
Hey! I read that you also like Finneas' (Billie's brother) voice, so you should react to his new album called 'For Cryin' Out Loud'. I think you would really enjoy it and I would love to see your full reaction.
Subscribed for The Warning but also love Billie! Would love to see you check out her song 'The Greatest' and the music videos for 'Bury A Friend' and 'Happier Than Ever'.
Live performance wise, worth checking out the BBC Live Lounge performance of 'Getting Older', the SNL performance of 'Male Fantasy' and her BRITs performance of 'No Time To Die'.
I believe u will luv her first video 'when the party's over"
If you like wildflower , you are going to love, L’AMOUR DE MAVIE (The Love Of My Life
I would totally recommend “The Greatest” (live)on Stephen Colbert! It honestly showed a different side of her vocal range and progression she’s had over the years!
You should listen to ''The Greatest'' live on the late late show!
Loved the reaction, new subscriber
Tamino , indigo night Go for it without any doubt
Chihiro is one her best music videos
For live performances I recommend Ilomilo and Listen Before I Go from the Steve Jobs theater...on the second one there she plays the piano as well and controls the silence in the entire theater with emotion.
I will add to my list to listen, possibly react to.
Love the reaction! I personally am a huuuge fan of her since 2017, she’s really really talented and it’s so good to finally see people acknowledging it. My favorite songs are: my future, listen before I go, hostage and ilomilo, you should really check em out❤ have a nice day!
You have a nice day as well. It's funny that I can never tell which comments are going to strike me enough to reply even though I read them all. Something about your Have a nice day just hit me right today. Thanks.
Yes please do more billie! Do the greatest ( on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert) or do Birds of a feather song on amazon music it was so good! Love your reaction !
Watch “Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas” live from SNL IS AMAZING
I'd love to see you react to Happier Than Ever
I'm new to your channel, but have you ever reacted to Yebba? She's "your favorite singer's favorite singer." But if you like this, you will love Yebba. Start with "My Mind" then the NPR Tiny Desk concert. Her background singers are phenomenal. And Yebba is unmatched.
I will look into her.
i suggest you react to her newer music if you like her vocals in this video, since I feel like her newer music definitely showcase her voice the most (what was I made for, skinny, the 30th and the greatest are all good ones :)
Of artistic videos from her there is a lot. I can recommend "Hostage", "Bury a Friend", "NDA", "When the Party's over", "Chihiro", "Happier than Ever", and even though "Bad Guy" is a Pop Song, the video is quite interesting.
You have to check on faouzia tears of gold stripped version you'll love it, she's incredible
You should do The Greatest and Happier than Ever (song)
You already knew thinking 🤔😂
it's an evolution though, so this is now...before was / is good authentic, but she grows, and you'll grow attached hehe
love ur reaction and i think u should react to "everything i wanted" by her,it's about suicide and how her brother is always there for her through her hard times
Her most artistic videos:
- When the Party’s Over
- You should see me in a crown (vertical video)
- Ocean Eyes
- idontwannabeyouanymore
- Hostage
- Lovely
- Bury a Friend
- All the good girls go to hell (make sure to watch this one AFTER bury a friend)
- Xanny
- Your Power
- What was I Made for
- Everything I Wanted
- Not my responsibility
- NDA
- Male Fantasy
- Happier Than Ever
- My Future

- Birds of a Feather
I also think you’ll enjoy these songs that only have lyric videos:
- TV
- The 30th
- ilomilo
- skinny
- getting older
- Billie Bossa nova
- the greatest
There are also some very specific legendary live videos that are a must watch:

- you don’t get me high anymore (bbc radio 1)
- bad (like a version)
- bitches broken hearts (Vevo live)
- no time to die (Brit awards)
- I love you (Greek theatre)
- L’amour de ma vie (live Amazon)
- come out and play (Apple Music awards)
- when the party’s over (Howard Stern)
- All the good girls go to hell (Howard stern)
The somewhat more pop songs I can think of, but whose videos are creative and kinda interesting and to be honest the production is so quirky that it basically makes up for the fact that it can be mistaken for a pop song, I’d still recommend them but maybe at a later point once you e watched her more artistic videos and are still craving more Billie which will inevitably happen:
- bad guy
- lunch
- watch
- therefore I am
- lost cause
P.s. I didn’t copy paste this I literally always write out my comments specific to the video I’m watching and off the top of my head. And I specifically chose videos I think you’ll enjoy in particular. I didn’t list everything 😊
Now that is a longer comment I can get behind. You seemed to really take time to make it a response to what I said in the video and didn't just list a bunch of stuff that wasn't relevant. Good on you. I appreciate that and I will save this to a file as a reference. Well done.
do THE GREATEST she sang it live on tv
Waiting on it to clear a copyright block so I can post it. Wish me luck.
Wow, she really opened up her vocals for this performance.
Everything I Wanted is so poignant and the video very artistic.
I'll check and make sure it's on my list.
check out the greatest live on the stephen colbert show if you haven't yet, its so good!
It's in my Billie Reactions Playlist. Awesome song and performance.
P.s. it’s a good thing that you said you’d rather not have long comments because that’s very much my default, as Billie is a special interest of mine and I do tend to go on and on so I felt totally called out haha but not in a bad way. I understand, though, some people just copy paste facts. I just take these reaction videos as an excuse to write out my thoughts. No copy pasting happening here! Also I do that because I know that comments are good for the video’s algorithm so I don’t feel too bad. 😅
Thank you so much. I appreciate you taking the time and practicing brevity. I am always more likely to reply to a thoughtful, heartfelt comment personally than just give a "Thanks for the info" reply. It takes so much time to go through comments some days when you'd rather be creating something new. It's all part of the give and take of reaction videos. Thanks again.
The master list!
When the partys over
Ocean eyes
Listen before i go
