    I'm 53 and a massive fan of Billie and her brother Finneas, at 20 and 24 they are so talented and to think they started to hit fame at 13 and 17 OMG what will the future bring. Fantastic job Billie on this, loved it

      I’m 54 and also a huge fan of her since the very beginning of her career. I’ve seen her in concert 3 times. can’t wait to see what she does in the future. She and Finneas are so talented.

    Billie doesn’t target any demographic, believe it or not. She was brought up on Sinatra, Peggy Lee, Dean Martin and The Beatles, and it shows. There are a lot more of us old-ass Billie stans than you think!

      I'm 68 and I'm one of them! I hadn't been to a concert in over 40 years, but drove 370 miles south to St. Paul, MN to see Bille @the Xcel Energy Center, March 15, 2022 - the fellow next to me was in his 50's and there with his daughter, and he enjoyed Billie too - she was awesome! When she sang "No Time To Die" it moved to tears - a historic, momentous song [written by a 17-18 yr. old with FINNEAS, of course. (Oscar winning). 40+ years ago I saw John Denver, Three Dog Night, Gordon Lightfoot, Waylon Jennings. All were very good.

    There’s no target demographic with Billie. She just makes great art and puts it out. I’m a punk/metal fan in my early 50s and yet Billie has become one of my all time favorite artists. Her live voice is the best I’ve ever heard. There are plenty of us oldies at her shows too btw. 😉. Thanks!

    I too, am not in the “normal” age range since I’m 46 now, but my therapist actually introduced me to her music about 6 years ago during a VERY dark time in my life, and I admit that her, and FINNEAS’s, music got me through it. They’re amazing at everything they do, and on a personal side, their family dynamic is like one I’ve never seen - sooo much unconditional love and devotion for each other! ❤️

    You should check out her cover of Bobby Hebb’s 1963 hit “Sunny”. Amazing. She actually sings a lot of ballads, however, main stream radio tends to play her more upbeat music and unfortunately, most people base their opinions of her on those songs.

    If you don't like billie eilish, then you don't like music either. I'm 40 years old, I'm a music teacher and I LOVE these 2 siblings madly. THEY are 2 revolutionary artists.
    First of all, they are not like all other artists, we haven't seen artists of this level for over 20, even more, years. She is anti pop, anti genres, “alternative-pop”, she is nonconformist both as an artist and as a person. She uses ALL genres of music. She sets no limits. You should listen to her latest album "Happier than ever" a MASTERPIECE, in which there are these genres: jazz, folk, blues, R&B, bossa nova, country, rock, electro-pop / techno, electro alternative, pop etc and I also admit a genre on the whole that cannot really be defined. It's an album in which they experiment and they use every musical genre for each song, telling a different story of Billie, transmitting a different emotion thanks to the different genres and in each song it catapults you into a movie, wonderful, the depth of the lyrics is really great too. . It's not an album that breaks your ears with the same awful productions and singers that scream like those of today, i can't take it anymore, but it catapults you into the compositions that were used many years ago, minimal music 60s, simple, but intimate, authentic and of high quality with manu beautiful details. A return to the origins, but in a VERY different and new way and Bille's voice and her music is timeless and in her concerts is full of 60-80 year old people who LOVE Billie and what she represents as an artist and also as a really beautiful person too ...she reminds me a lot of MJ and Lady Diana ... they have the same soul, the same empathy, kindness, but also a great sense of humor and simplicity. She is really amazing.
    They are the ONLY artists today who know how to create totally new sounds, never heard before, they try to overcome the limits imposed by the industry and the mainstream world that has destroyed the real music….
    The artistic and creative level that these 2 prodigies have is for me incredible.
    The first debut album (the darkest one) is a journey to discover our inner demons and our fears (which she also represents in music videos as phobias for: spiders, needles, people who touch you etc and then fear of losing the loved ones, also for drugs and alcohol etc, fear of what is happening to the planet etc) because Billie's fears are not only “teenager problems”, but everyone's. The voice of denunciation that action must be taken for social change.
    It's a masterpiece! They are artists who create, they don't copy like all the other fake pop artists of today, songs that are FULL of samples = simply revisited covers… This is art. They are TRUE artists. Her songs have a meaning and convey VERY important messages. In the second albums she talks about bodyshaming, toxic fame / media, sexual violence and abusive toxic relationships (in great detail and the lyrics are really important), but also about loving yourself, your future, hope, desire to redeem yourself etc. They have won everything (15 Grammys, 2 Oscars, 2 Golden globes, 3 Brit awards etc she also 5 VMAS directing and editing her own music videos) not sure because the Academy's experts are crazy, they all deserve them and remember that when shecreated her works, she was only 15-19 years, imagine the future....
    Her EP wrote and produced when she was only 13/14 years old is the 1st biggest EP of all time, it's 5 years since she release that remain in che charts.
    According to Billboard and Rollings stone her debut album is:
    the best debut album in this century.
    the 4th best female album in music history,
    the 14th of all artists in music history,
    the 1st best female debut album of all time,
    the 7th best debut album (male and female) of all time.
    They have a HUGE musical culture from the 20s of music onwards (Frank sinatra, Peggy lee, Julie london, but also the Beatles etc ) and the talent and potential they have is enormous. They are the past, the present, but also the future of the music. I recommend people here to get comfortable and hear the 2 albums with headphones, their works are masterpieces and worth listening to carefully. The second album must be heard in full. Each note and each sound represent a specific feeling. Amazing.
    Sorry for the essay, but as a music lover I could not say these things: we are witnessing the growth of 2 musical geniuses and it's a pity that people hear only two songs of her and superficially judge her. Today you always tend to live superficially, but it's also nice to go in depth. "The Billie Eilish phenomenon" is already being studied in universities, it's something that has already had a big cultural impact and it's a shame not to witness it.And it would be a shame not to attend and not to support them, they are our hope for the future of music, to finally bring about a radical change. After the advent of digital, it was the end of real music, they are our last hope.
    I wish you a good day!

      I'm 68 and love Billie - I've read, possibly, everything in print about her - she is the real deal. You know this - her EP "Don't Smile at Me" (15 yrs old) is also awesome. "idontwannabeyouanymore" will be sung lots of years from now, as will the FINNEAS written "When the Party's Over". I'm 68 and I hadn't been to a concert in over 40 years, but drove 370 miles south to St. Paul, MN to see Bille @the Xcel Energy Center, March 15, 2022 - the fellow next to me was in his 50's and there with his daughter, and he enjoyed Billie too - she was awesome! When she sang "No Time To Die" it moved me to tears - a historic, momentous song [written by a 17-18 yr. old with FINNEAS, of course. (Oscar winning)]. 40+ years ago I saw John Denver, Three Dog Night, Gordon Lightfoot, Waylon Jennings. All were very good. The 7th best debut album and I don't think that's inappropriate - the more I listen the more I think nobody's written anything like that. Robert Christgau, the dean of music reviewers, on December 20, 2019, wrote "No teenager I can recall has ever made such an impressive album, although I guess Elvis's "Sun Sessions" gets an asterisk." I'm guessing, Alex, that you have also seen Billie singing "Sally's Song" from last Oct 29/30, 2021. I thought I was the only one who knew all this stuff - I might be the oldest though! But I'm guessing there's another older Billie admirer who also treasures her contribution to music. P.S. Just think of 16 yr old Billie with the creative imagination to reinterpret (but respectfully) Michael Jackson's "BAD" for Triple J's "Like A Version" - that's incredible or her interpretation/cover of Rob Dickinson's beautiful "The End of the World" [I don't forget Finneas, but I believe Finneas would agree with this - part of Billie's contribution to the songwriting/music is one reason she outsells Finneas's songs by about 50X. Finneas, too, is a creative prodigy (maybe too old to be called that now) - I think the word "genius" is over used - there's lots of very sharp musician/artists.

    I think that even if you don't really like her first 2 albums, please PLEASE give her new album a shot!! It's her best work yet, im sure you would like it! Please give it a lesson! She will suprise you, it's not like what she's ever done before. It's amazing.

    I'm 45 and a huge fan of Billie and her music. No such thing as target demographic with this girl. Just listen to her music/lyrics and you'll get it.

    Boy, it’s been quite a while since I have seen her. She’s looking good, and all grown up now. I don’t like all of her music, but she has some great ones. P.S. Ginger, Em does a couple of her songs. 😉

    Listen! Billy is the kind of artist that is going to do a little bit of what Lady Gaga did Billie’s gonna get older, she’s gonna mature and she’s gonna put out a standards album and rightfully so! not everyone can sing this type of music and Billie has that gift.

    Mike and Ginger, I heard Ginger say on one reaction that she loves Sinatra, you should check out Angelina singing You Make Me Feel So Young. Her lower register is great.

    Hi ginger, tell the guy with you that it’s okay to enjoy talent where it is due. He is allowed to like Billie Eilish. He is very clearly holding back. Many men his age and much older aren’t afraid to enjoy beautiful music. Just because she is a young women doesn’t mean you aren’t made to enjoy her music.

  • @stevenhopwood8195

    I must admit I’m not a fan of hers either but that was great. Usually whenever I see a reaction to her, I delete it. This time because it was you pair reacting I watched it. ❤️🤘🎸🇦🇺

      It’s great that you finally allowed the time to appreciate great music. It saddens me that many men feel as though they won’t enjoy it because she is a young woman.. Try more of her music you won’t be disappointed. P.s her live performances are all even better than her recorded tracks. Try my future, getting older and her cover of I’m in the mood for love by Julie London

    I’m not a fan of Eilish either, but she did a decent job singing Peggy Lee’s iconic ‘Fever’ I’d love to hear Daneliya Tuleshova (16 years old from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 now living in Boston , Massachusetts USA) sing this classic

    I was reading somewhere that someone described her voice as whispery. I kinda see it. Great version, Allison young did a good version too
