Unfortunately, Billie was in a year long relationship (ages 16-17) with a man in his early 20s. Nobody even knew she was dating anyone until her documentary came out (his face was blurred and he was given the alias of “Q”). Her 2nd full length album Happier Than Ever, of which the title song and video you already did a great reaction to, speaks a lot about this relationship and the various stages of going through it and coming out of it to try to heal. Not only was she underage but he was emotionally manipulative, reckless, and just all in all treated her very poorly. Talk about adding insult to injury. All of this was a major contributing factor to her becoming extremely depressed, to the point of having suicidal thoughts. She openly started speaking about the fact that she’d gone through an abusive and toxic relationship around the age of 18-19, before Happier Than Ever was released. This was actually the first single off of that album, which I really commend her for. She went for substance and using her enormous platform to speak directly to current victims of abuse, survivors, the many industries, including the music industry, that are a breeding ground for this kind of abuse of power, and the actual perpetrators of this kind of behaviour. The fact that she speaks directly to the abusers in the chorus is particularly effective “How dare you? How could you? Would you only feel bad if they found out/killed your contract? If you could take it all back, would you?”
In the song “Happier Than Ever” she says “Didn’t pay any mind to my mother or friends so I shut them all out for you cause I was a kid.” Btw, she directed this video, the one for “Happier Than Ever”, as well as several others you’ve reacted to. Before she started directing, I believe the first time was when she was 16 or 17, she was heavily involved in the creative process for all her music videos. Both Billie and her brother/best friend Finneas, who co-writes some of her songs, sings background vocals, plays instruments, and produces all of Billie’s music, have synesthesia, which she has said heavily influences all of her visuals, from music videos, to album artwork, to her personal style, to the lighting used on stage during live performances. She’s struggled with depression, anxiety, and Tourette’s syndrome from early ages. She’s dealt with an abusive and toxic relationship, stalkers, the violent death of a very close friend (RIP XXXtentacion) being sexualized while underage (leading to her making a conscious decision to wear hugely oversized clothing during her teenage years), body shaming (once she turned 18 she started showing moderately more skin and was slut shamed and had her body mocked mercilessly…you can’t win). She also has a background in dancing, which is very evident from how she naturally moves to her music, right down to very precise facial movements, but any career she was aiming for was cut short when she had serious hip and, later, knee injuries at the age of 12 which continue to affect her and cause her pain. She is currently only 20 years old and has won 7 Grammys, a Golden Globe, and an Oscar (amongst so many other awards and nominations). She has been through so much at such a young age and she still shows a degree of self awareness, maturity, compassion, humour, and an utterly unique approach to art in it’s many forms. It makes me so happy to know there are young artists out there who appeal to vast audiences as well as being hugely popular with a young demographic, that break down stigmas of mental health and physical disabilities, open up discussions about body image, toxic relationships, abuse, substance abuse etc and who seem to truly value being honest and expressing themselves in a way that’s authentic to them while still being conscious of their own power and platform.
Sorry for the absolute NOVEL I wrote disguised as a comment. I value not only your reactions and insight but the entire idea behind why this channel exists in the first place. You’ve got yourself another subscriber.
Take care,
Meghan
Wow,that was a good novel.lol
I became a huge fan of Billie's after listening to ALL her music and her documentary was incredible. I would like to add all the injuries she has suffered and still went on stage in great pain because she loves her fans so much
@@michaellaws2739 lol Thanks. I mentioned her injuries but yeah, it’s crazy how often she’s performed wearing a knee brace. She still has to do physical therapy, especially before and during tours, for injuries she sustained YEARS ago. I imagine chronic pain and inflammation is another thing she has to deal with and manage. There’s no doubt she’s a strong person and really devoted to her art and the people who support her. ❤️
I absolutely LOVE this novel of a comment. Seriously. It was very informative and only made me love and respect Billie even more. Thank you. 😌✨💙
@@TierraSanea87 I needed to hear something kind today so thank YOU for giving me that. I hope you have a wonderful day and take care of yourself. ☺❤
So glad I read your comment. Thank you. Billie is inspirational to all ages. A very special individual.
the “OH WOW, this is uncomfortable yall.” got me DEAD AS FUCK HAHA
😳😊
The snake is called Archie. He's an Anaconda, which makes him a constrictor.
Billie spent some days with him so they could 'get to know each other' so to speak.
People claimed it was CGI but they clearly don't know Billie. She does NOT mess around.
Yeah, the only part that was CGI was when it wrapped around her neck...all the other times it's a 100% real snake!
How can they not bite and how is she not choking
@@emaleearmstrong8692 She spent time with the snake so it would get to know her.
Also there was people on stand-by in case anything went wrong.
On tour, the entire crowds (like arena-crowds) would always scream "How dare you?!" Obviously, this song is not just about her. And she's always been fully aware of that .
YESSS! Finally more Billie Eilish reactions lol. I’ve always found her music and her as a person very relatable. And it feels good that someone around this age group (gen z) representing us all misunderstood teens/young adults lol. Please react to hostage by Billie Eilish next 🥺🤞🏾🙏🏾
she didn’t actually disclose who this song is about, but when she was 16 she was dating a 23 year old. so a lot of people kinda know this song is about him
@@xoctocatlthis song is about Q, “you said you thought she was your age, how dare you, and how could you?”
The song isn't directed at any specific individual, rather talking about the industry she's in. Unfortunately, when you're in this industry at such a young age you have more than just a single person who abuses their power.
no, this song is about rape and it's about her. There is an interview where she talks about it and clearly says that she won't go into it any further, that Finneas has sorted it out and fired the person. Of TikTok ist the Interview.
I LOVE THIS TOM! this song is about her ex boyfreind who was 23 and she was 16-17 years old and no one knew about him gr00ming her and alot of very disgusting things and he manipulated her so much so this song is SO DEEP! It hits hard for so many people and that 'this makes me uncomfortable' is so true because she was silenced by this man like a snake suffocating her. This is TRUE GOLD! ❤
So glad you've reacted to this song. I deeply relate to it and have recently been recommended psychotherapy, your channel is making that step seem less scary. Thank you
Thanks for sharing Annie! Appreciate your support!😊👍
I thought he would hit harder on the last time “But power isn’t pain” which hit me the hardest
Also yes it was a real snake, Archie the Anaconda
Joji - Glimpse of Us should be the next one
Please do more Billie Eilish Reactions!!!
Will you ever post your other Billie Eilish reactions on TH-cam or will they stay on patreon?
Both hopefully, I love Billie😊
@@ReactionTherapyOfficial thank you!
The snake is real, but the parts where he coils around her neck are done with CGI.
Also, I think this song isn’t so much about personal past relationships, but more as way of bringing awareness to what happens when people in the industry abuse their power and take advantage of others.
So happy that this happened! I suggested it after one of the first nf videos you posted! So happy to see it!! This song affects me personally and relates to me! I actually have used it to help me kind of come to terms and work through understanding the grooming I experienced from my teacher. She is speaking about adult men who are placed in power positions in young girls lives(teachers, directors, agents, neighbors, family, therapists, church etc…) and who then take advantage!
For me these lyrics were the ones that hit me hard!
“She thought you were her hero, you played the part but you ruined her in a year.”-the reason for me is because the teacher was a hero figure in my life. I only had him for a year and that was all it took.
“She was sleeping in your clothes but now she’s got to get to class.”-for me just explains how abusive this was it wasn’t a relationship. It was manipulation.
“Will you only feel bad if they find out?” And “would you only feel bad if it turns out that they kill your contract.”-These two hit hard for me because he never felt he did anything wrong.
“I thought that I was special.”-they can make you feel like your the only one. Only to find out there were others. I met with one of the other girls and talked. We had no idea that he was the same with both of us.
“You made me feel like it was my fault. You were the devil. You lost your appeal.”-to this day it was her fault(the other girl who accidentally came forward). He likes to continually place blame on her. He is in his 40s she is 18 and this was 3 years ago that if came out and 5-6 years since it happened.
For me this song isn’t just about a relationship because there is no relationship there is only abuse, manipulation, and control!
Another song I recommend that I feel goes a long with this is Alec Benjamin’s Death of a Hero!!
The snake is symbolic of her previous relationship of how the relation ship slowly constricted her until she couldn't breathe. At least thats how i see it.
You should react to glimpse of us by joji, this song is touching so many people right now with it's beauty and I think you'll really enjoy it!!!
Always here for more Billie! One of my favorites from her!
I have missed you, Tom! I haven't been on here in awhile. It seems there is a a theme with an underage relationship. She mentioned in Happier Than Ever that she was just a kid. Once again, she never disappoints with how she can convey something very uncomfortable in a beautiful song.
Lisa!!!! So good to hear from you again! Very nice take, love Billie Eilish!😊👍
I love your reaction videos 😊 keep it up, you’re super great! Thank you for reacting to this song! 😊
Thank you sooooo much!😊👍
You should react to Glimpse of Us by Joji! Love your videos!

Thank you Sabrina! So kind of you!😊
Bright eyes we are nowhere and it’s now
Would love to See u reactin to lovely by her
love billie reaction
She is great! You can feel the hurt in her voice. Amazing breakdown Tom!
Also the snake is most likely CGI to much liability to put it around her like that.
Thank you!😊👍
Snake is real. She has btw vid with snake and the snake handler. Billie doesn't do cgi.
I got a recommendation, “How much a dollar cost?” By Kendrick Lamar
Billie liked the snake. His name is Archie. :-)
Great vid! Next please discuss Joji - Glimpse of Us!
Request: Only time it rains in Hollywood by Red Leather
He is a new artist and blowing up
you should listen to Santan Dave, here are some songs: My 19th birthday, Lesley, How I met my ex, heart attack, Psycho...
We’ve done some Dave in the past, check those out😊👍
therapist listening to another therapist
React to NF - Trust ft Tech9
I haven't watched the video again since it was released... too much anxiety of snakes. I love the song though! As of my understanding, the song could be about people (mostly men) in position of power within the industry, but it is most likely targeted to a much broader audience that can relate to these relationships in their everyday lifes. The snake on the other hand is real, that much came across by watching her instagram stories back then.
I love seeing you react to Billie again, Tom!
Scary for me! Thanks for the feedback Mike!😊👍
Hey, Tom! Pretty sure the snake was edited in for her own safety LOL but very good reaction, loved it ! :)
The snake was really there. Only the part where it wraps around her neck was edited in.
Billie eilish - listen before i go (apple music live) please need this ...
The snake did not go around her neck that was fake but everything else of the snake was real 😄
The snake was real
Love her
Same until I saw here shaming of "ugly guys"
@@DaP84 ?
@@AnthonyHologounis96 she asked in an interview why every pretty girl is with "a horrible looking man". And said she's not shaming people for their looks, "but I am though". And that you should never give an ugly guy a chance, cause then they think they rule the world and can act horrible. "Like, you're still ugly though. Can't change that."
@@DaP84 she never said to not give an “ugly guy a chance” 😭😭😭
@@hollytheo well, same thing but in another way. She said if you give an ugly guy a chance this will happen. I.e. "don't give them a chance"
please react to jordan complete plz, is the hardest and one of the bests songs that i heard before, he talk about differents things related to depression
I hope he reacts to Joji’s new song
please react to some alec benjamin, specifically the devil doesn’t bargain and if i killed some one for you
the snake is real most of the time except for the part where its coiled around her neck, I'm familiar with VFX so I can tell but they did a great job with making the snake look real
You need react to "listen before i go" ,its just crazy...
Kisses from Brazil ❤🇧🇷
I'd love to see you react to Alone Together by Quadeca. And then some of his songs like Sisyphus and Where'd You Go.
Hey Tom, I just found your channel by total coincidence and I'm so glad I did !, anyway, I have suggestions for relevant reactions, so first let me introduce myself first, I'm an intern doctor and I've been diagnosed with BPD, and I'm currently working in raising awareness and advocacy for mental health in post-war situation in my country, so a lot of people asking me how it feels like to have BPD, and here is my answer to them and the suggestion for you to hear as well, for me Alessia Cara's "In The Meantime" album is a great representation of it, especially "Box In The Ocean" and "Clockwork" songs
wacht this is just the intro tory lanez
If you haven't I have a really good song for you to do it's ghost by bad flower also I really love you're videos like I think you helped me :) so thanks for taking time to make these great videos !!
PLEASE REACT TO GETTING OLDER AND EVERYBODY DIES BY BILLIE EILISH
You should watch the video of "you should see me in a crown" (what a sentence) if the snake impressed you ahah
Please react to her new song The 30th and TV it has the same acoustic and guitar vibes and it also talks about heavy themes
The snake is CGI. There are little scenes where it is real, but the majority isn’t.
i love how your spreading mental health awareness would it be possible for you to review HUNNITBOY-JAY FLIGHT MODE MUSIC VIDEO thank you
can you react to Alone Part3 - XXXtentacion
OMG YESSSS TO BILLIE
Try reacting to Zotiyac, you might find him really interesting! Possibly try Drills in the Hills or even Laps!
please react to male fantasy - billie eilish
Hey sir, really enjoy your reactions and would love to see you react to Hush by Hell Yeah. It perfectly reflects my childhood. As an adult with 3 children of my own I fight every day to not become the people that created me.
Hey Tom, absolutely love your videos and wisdom. You should react to Good News by Mac Miller, it's really strong... Thank you for everything!
I think we did that already 😊
Man I miss Mac! 😪
Can u do joji glimpse of us
Lad, you should react to Mac Lethal's songs. I recommend "This Time Around."
The snake represents the feeling of a toxic relationship, how it constricts you and sucks the life out of you.
You should make a reaction to „let me go“ from NF. I would be so happy :)
He did already
Amazing!
Listen before I go is another great song and very deep hopefully next time that’s what you’ll be reacting to ☺️
I LOVE THE VIDEOS PLEASE REACT TO LESLIE BY DAVE IT WILL MAKE A GREAT VIDEO
We did that a while ago
Your so awesome 🥲❤😍please react to finneas, break my heart again if you get a chance ❤🙂
Thank you ❤
can you post more billie eilish content on youtube? i’ve heard it’s on your patreon but i don’t have money for that right now
Odds of you reading this is super low but I can't resist but asking for you to check out Ross Cappicchioni by Joyner Lucas, he has a few great storytelling songs but this one is just something you would've never heard before.
If you want a good artist that has some powerful lyrics I would suggest CRIM - Screaming out to a god or Drugs and nicotine. Both amazing songs keep it up and hope you react to them
My heart is screaming for an NF/Billie/Finneas collab ❤️ (he deserves more credit than he gets)
Please react to more Billie
