5:15 I genuinely don’t think that you’ve ever read into things too much in your videos. i feel like it’s so interesting to hear your thoughts about those lyrics
This was pleasantly so enjoyable that it may be among my favorites I’ve heard from her! Love the imagery with the literal perspective change like you talk about her on the house; then also drowning in all the waters. It was the change in intensity for me for sure! So powerful! I can see it for what it is, is exactly what I thought, too-like the TS song “happiness”.
When the song switches you can instantly feel all these emotions she’s been holding and it’s so cathartic, every line says something deep and her vocals only adds to it! Hope you can react to some more songs from her last album and also previous tracks like TV 💜
Follow this order: xanny, listen before I go, I love you, getting older, not my responsibility + overheated, male fantasy, tv, the 30th, skinny, chihiro, WILDFLOWER, the greatest, blue
This song is so special. She just puts all her feelings/thoughts in this song.. crazy. I love this song sooo much. And I really love how you understand it!❤
The second movement of this song really goes hard. I also love that you're like "maybe I'm reading too much into this" and then 5 seconds later you get to the part where she directly states that the person has addiction issues.
Hi Mere! I’ve been loving your reactions to Billie’s songs. I’d love to see you react to Your Power. It’s such a beautiful song with a powerful and important message. I think your perspective as a therapist could add even more depth to it!
Its fine i listen to that song all the time and somehow still cried watching this vid. It always hits different when u sit and really listen to the lyrics (plus her imagery and screams in the mv) vs just playing it casually. The end of the song always just hits so much.
Would LOVE for you to fall further down the Billie rabbit hole. Her entire new album is incredible but really should be listened to from start to finish - it's a story/concept album.
I love your reaction to this song. Thank you for sharing your experience. I hope you're doing well and that you have recover your strength and that you can be eventually happier than ever. It would be awesome if you could react to T.V. from Billie.
So young and so talented! Billie speaks from her own experience and her feelings! It is so amazing! And your reaction Mere on point as usual ♥ We love you!!!!! Please more Billie ♥
Well said! I also think that the visuals are super good: She's in a pink perfect room and super calm while talking on the phone to him, the lights start flickering and water slowly starts getting in but she ignores it cuz she's still focused on phoning with him. The moment she hangs up and actually looks around and goes to the door is the moment it all hits her and everything gets dark and under water and she starts to see it for what it is.
I cry every time she gets to the roof. The emotions she takes us through in that song, not only lyrically, but instrumentally and vocally. It's easily in my top 5 favorite songs I think because of those reasons and that it hits way too close to home... but it's empowering to me too by the end. She realized that and lets it out and seems to even be dancing in the rain like it's cleaning her after it all.
I remember the first time I heard this song on her album during the pandemic in 2021, then this video and then I was also breaking away from my soon to be ex husband back then that I’ve commented about on Taylor’s “Florida” video you did for him to stay down there with his gf (I’m in Columbus, Ohio) but I loveeeeeee you’re here fathoming this because it’s super duper therapeutic Meredith 😘
Hi Katrina! I remember this! Love that we are both in cbus :). I bet this song was so supportive for you during that time of hell. So glad he is your ex husband and out of your life! It is therapeutic and I’ve been blasting it in my house ever since hahaha. Sending 🤍
I love your reaction to this music video, I would love to see more Billie content! Music videos, live performances, anything Billie related honestly. I love it all and I definitely will be visiting your channel again!
I remember listening to this song for the first time a couple of years ago and feeling like someone finally put in to words what was like being in a toxic/narcissistic relationship, feeling like I was not alone anymore and started to cry.
That first 'I don't relate to you' is the heaviest line on the whole album for me. Glad it resonated with you too, it's doesn't get many mentions in reactions. It's the first time she really starts to raise her voice, and that it interrupts the line just before like she's just come to the realization that she can't keep doing this anymore. It's such a powerful way (both with the lyrics and her singing style) to start transitioning into the next part of the song.
Love your thoughtful Billie reactions. Check out her live performance of The Greatest on Stephen Colbert for more Billie therapy. Also, Wildflower live on Amazon Music Song line.
This song is so special, it made me go through a breakup like this where I didn’t have the possibility to express any emotion to him, he used my mental illness as an excuse to treat me poorly basically, and the screaming is all we need sometimes, this song let me vent in the way I needed
In general Billie directs her own videos and does everything as practical and real as possible. They built this house and then submerged it in a swimming pool for her to do this video
in her Apple TV documentary The world’s a little blurry we can see first hand the creation of her first album as well as showing us the ex happier than ever the song is about, I really recommend and would love to see your reaction to it!!
Hello it's me again. I thought in you wit this songs: 1: Mitski-Losing dogs ( in my words i would say this: "what a heart longs for" ). 2- flower face - pisces moon: "this song sounds like an eternal spining dance full of love". 3- flower face- cornflower blue.
There's no such thing as reading too much into Billie's songs- the writing, production, everything is done for a reason!! true artists both Billie & Finneas!
Eu simplesmente amo essa música! Quando ouvi "Happier Than Ever" pela primeira vez, senti uma mistura de emoções: uma forte vontade de chorar e uma sensação intensa de alegria.🥺❤️
I love this song it was my most listened song for 2 years in a row and your reaction to that 2nd part made me tear up, the realization, the fact that so many of us can relate with those lyrics is just overwhelming sometimes. I'm sure many ppl have suggested more Billie songs but I leave some suggestions I'm sure you'll enjoy and can share you perspective as a therapist: Your Power, TV, skinny, The Greatest, Blue, Listen before I go, My Future, Male Fantasy
A lot of us feel this song was written about a guy that Billie was “dating” when she was under age. It was cathartic for her. And he treated her pretty shxtty. If you watch the documentary about her (titled “the world’s a little blurry), we see her in this relationship with this dude and he’s pretty much almost never there for her. Everytime she wants to be with him, he’s never there. Never shows up. Doesn’t contact her. So when fans first heard this song? It was also cathartic for us, because we were all like “holy shxt..it’s about him. And she let him have it.” She went scorched earth on that 2nd half. She was like 16/17 and he was like 22 at the time.
Hii I absolutely love the analysis you provide dont feel like its too much cuz thats exactly what we're here for💗 wud love to see you react to analyze sza's songs off of the album 'ctrl'. its definitely worth checking out
Would really love for you check out NF. One of the most talented rapper, singer, writer, producers. He is real and speaks on mental health and past traumas. You should start with “Hope” from newest album after he had a kid. If you like there are so many more “how could you leave us” followed by “Mama” which ties together years later. So many other songs that help people and saves lives.
IMO, pretty nostalgic sound at beginning and then it takes off. Nice discussion. Love Billie. At some point you really need to do AURORA. "It Happened Quiet" live at The Current.
10:54 I know this doesn’t have anything to do with Billie but there’s a song called sober by Selena Gomez and it’s literally about what you said right here, I would recommend it in case you wanna check it out
You should react to the greatest! It’s such a powerful song by her, like this one. Another thing to look at would be her EP (2 songs) called guitar songs❤
pre ordered Hey addiction, thanks for nothing, and daily I refer to things I learned to recognize and understand from the book. Not because I'm in a relationship with an addict anymore, but my close friends and family are. Thank you ❤
I love this song so much. For me it reminds me of my father who my entire life was an abusive alcoholic. He would always go through periods where he would stop drinking, but would be a dry drunk or throw himself into religion and he would force it down every one else’s throats. It wasn’t until I had my own personal spiritual awakening and had my own personal relationship with God. Because my dad made God like if you don’t listen to what I say God is going to punish you. He made it like he was God. The God that I have a relationship with is a God of love, forgiveness, mercy, kindness, grace and peace. Which is something I don’t think my father has ever experienced in his entire life. His is more of guilt, shame, manipulation narcissism and sadness and regret. I don’t judge him, but I also can’t have a relationship with him either. He has always had mental health issues and my brother and I do as well. The first step was cutting toxic people from my life . I love you and your channel. ❤ You have no idea how many people you make an impact on!
hey mere, i've loved your reactions for such a long time and they're so good and interesting this one is no exception :) i wondered whether or not you could maybe react to "the 30th", "tv" or "your power" by billie? those are two amazing songs of hers ((:
I really love this song and I though you would like it 😊 also you have such a beautiful shirt , it reminds me of Ukrainian traditional clothes vyshyvanka 😍
You need to watch her documentary "the world's a little blurry" it shows a bunch of context about this relationship
yesss I would love to watch this!
It'll make you cry
Seeing how he treats her in this documentary and the raw upset and disappointment from her is so hard!
Yess
fun fact: this clip does not have a green screen, it is absolutely real, they flooded the house on purpose for this clip
"Don't waste the time I don't have" is such a poignant and perfect line, thank you for focusing in on it.
billie's songs have always such a deep and raw meaning.
5:15 I genuinely don’t think that you’ve ever read into things too much in your videos. i feel like it’s so interesting to hear your thoughts about those lyrics
This song is pure catharsis for anyone who has been in this kind of relationship. It makes me cry every time.
Agreed!
This was pleasantly so enjoyable that it may be among my favorites I’ve heard from her! Love the imagery with the literal perspective change like you talk about her on the house; then also drowning in all the waters. It was the change in intensity for me for sure! So powerful! I can see it for what it is, is exactly what I thought, too-like the TS song “happiness”.
Yes, I can totally see that connection to happiness! And yes, that change in intensity was crazy!
You should watch the behind the scenes for this video.
When the song switches you can instantly feel all these emotions she’s been holding and it’s so cathartic, every line says something deep and her vocals only adds to it! Hope you can react to some more songs from her last album and also previous tracks like TV 💜

"MORE BILLIE TO COME" yaaaaallll I'm ready for this!!!! Loved to see how you enjoyed this song!! Would love to see your reaction to COME OUT AND PLAY
The second movement of this song really goes hard. I also love that you're like "maybe I'm reading too much into this" and then 5 seconds later you get to the part where she directly states that the person has addiction issues.
8:39 I don't think I've ever seen Mere prouder, lol
Hi Mere! I’ve been loving your reactions to Billie’s songs. I’d love to see you react to Your Power. It’s such a beautiful song with a powerful and important message. I think your perspective as a therapist could add even more depth to it!
the liberation she expresses with her movement when she's on the roof is brilliant.
Its fine i listen to that song all the time and somehow still cried watching this vid. It always hits different when u sit and really listen to the lyrics (plus her imagery and screams in the mv) vs just playing it casually. The end of the song always just hits so much.

It would be awesome if you could react to T.V. from Billie.
Thank you for your words 🤍 I’m still working on myself and still hopeful for the future too :) yes, TV is coming
So young and so talented! Billie speaks from her own experience and her feelings! It is so amazing! And your reaction Mere on point as usual ♥ We love you!!!!! Please more Billie ♥

whenever I want to analyse a song I am listening to, I search if you have reacted to it!! love you
I remember seeing someone saying that she could have been relatable but she chose to be real at "never told anyone anything bad".
oh yessss you’re reacting billie (i’m taking it personal) ❤❤️❤️❤️❤️ i beg u to react to listen before i go
oh shit, she needs to be really prepared for this

This song is so cathartic! It's just nice to see someone who has been stifled in a relationship get a chance to speak out about their true feelings.
