One of the biggest names in popular music today is Billie Eilish. You don’t have to be a super fan to recognize one of her songs because her distinctive voice and music style immediately give it away. At only 17 years old, she already has seven gold and two platinum singles. Billie Eilish also became the very first person born in the 2000s to have a number one album. She was originally discovered online when her song, Ocean Eyes, went viral. It was originally written by her brother, Finneas, and was uploaded to Sound Cloud when Billie was only 13 years old (it has over 17 million listens now). Finneas continues to co-produce and co-write with his sister and is credited for the unique and artistic style her songs.
Personally, I really enjoy her songs. I’m not exactly sure how to describe her music style, but I would call it edgy, alternative pop. It’s something that is so different from all other music on the charts and that’s what makes it so refreshing and intriguing. Billie’s soft, yet almost haunting, vocals are so distinct and immediately draw in the listener. Some of my favorite songs include Ocean Eyes, Lovely, and Bury a Friend. Her music videos are also what make her stand out, since all of them have an extremely creepy theme and aesthetic. Bleeding eyes, crawling spiders, and syringes are just a few of the things featured in her music videos. I’m glad that Billie Eilish is not afraid to be herself and show a dark side through her music.

I too enjoy Billie Eilish’s music. She has such a unique beautiful voice as you said. I didn’t know that she got her start on a song her brother wrote. Great post!

I’m not going to lie, I haven’t listened to any of her music. It’s funny because my reason is that her album covers are so creepy. However, I have heard that she’s becoming quite popular.

I had to click on this post because it’s Billie Eilish. I love her music. Like Shane mentioned, I used to shy away from her songs because the creepy covers, but one day it played on my recommended radio, and I loved it. Her songs can make me calm and in a strange way motivated.

I am a huge fan of Billie’s music. I guess I am also a fan of her brother since he writes her lyrics/music (I had no idea!) I also find it unbelievable that she is our age and already a millionaire (possible billionaire).

I remember being really hesitant to try listening to Billie Eilish’s music before because I found her so scary! After listening to a few songs in the car and hearing my sister talk about her, I actually really like some of her music. It’s so amazing that the start of her career was basically when she was 13, and now she’s like our age and has become so successful!
