![]() Though I like Billie when I've seen her interviewed previously, I'm not really a fan of the style of music she does. In ordinary circumstances, I probably wouldn't have watched this. Nevertheless, while I'm not what you would call a fan, as someone who dabbles with music, music production, and understands a fair bit about the process of songwriting and production, I take my hat off to these two. I just saw some spooky parallels and heard Billie saying some stuff that I recognize from being around my own kid. It's always going to be difficult, but there's a lot more exposure to everything now. They're growing up in a totally different world to the one I experienced at that age. It's easy to ignore or write off what our kids are saying, but we can never know their difficulties or their pain points. I only recently learned that Billie is two weeks older than my daughter, and it was then that I could see some of the parallels of what she is going through. The support they both receive from their parents is lovely to see. It's just Billie and Finneas, raw and mostly unedited. The documentary was well done, and every bit as informative as any we've seen without the need for a narrator or a narrative. There's a depth to the lyrics that makes them accessible in a number of ways. Baring one's soul is not in keeping with today's twee world of obvious party lyrics. And it is special, Finneas and Billie O'Connell represent a serious threat to homogeny that is modern pop music, and I'm not sure this is all pop music anyway. She's unapologetic about her openness, and that she doesn't have a team of songwriters makes her music all the more special. What we have here is an unapologetic eye on her world, the creative process, the ups, the downs, and all the bits in the middle. She isn't being pushed into a corner by style gurus and managers, and when she does get pushed she pushes back and they listen. I always been impressed by how much of herself is on display. Also femininity does not equal weakness?!!! Omg?! Insane right? Who knew? And also totally unheard of and insane to want to express yourself differently at different times.” These marked Eilish's bluntest and most straightforward comments this year regarding the public's perception of her.It's refreshing to find an artist that is truly authentic, has genuine talent, and despite reluctance, fatigue, and the pressure of having to go on in spite of how she may feel, goes on and on. LET WOMEN EXIST!”Įilish added, “Did you know women are multifaceted!!!!!? Shocking right? Believe it or not, women can be interested in multiple things. oMG iT's nOt thE sAmE biLlie she's just like the rest, bla blah. “And now when I feel comfortable enough to wear anything remotely feminine or fitting, I CHANGED and am a sellout.and ‘what happened to her. I spent the first five years of my career getting absolutely OBLITERATED by you fools for being boyish and dressing how I did and constantly being told I'd be hotter if I acted like a woman. She wrote on a series of Instagram Stories in late May, “Letter to some comments I be seeing sometimes. The singer recently hit back at commenters accusing her of “selling out” because she is wearing more feminine clothes. Eilish hasn't often posted in swimwear on Instagram.
