So basically he produces music like a painter. That's such a cool and profound approach and it makes so much sense. Damn it, Finneas. He's such an inspiring artist. Him and his sister are the best duo
How is this comparison adding anything to the conversation? You could've stated your preference or recommended another producer's work. Instead you just sound like a whiney 1 dimensional fan with zero range. Learn to contribute without being an edgelord. @@CarterSabalewski
Right! I love learning from the artists their process… here, pure creativity & genius… like seeing a painting come to life. In Madrid there is a museum, Museo Reina Sofia that houses Pablo Picasso’s “Guernica”, for me, the best part if the exhibit hall is all the sketches and seeing his process in the creation of the final work of art… fascinating & just very cool!
This interview just confirms what we already know about the genius of these two towering talents. Not just technically accomplished, but infused with emotional intelligence, warmth and compassion that sets them apart.
Here you are. May as well have my James Bond Theme proposal too cos I’m not going to get noticed th-cam.com/video/Ze58j747T9Y/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
“If the audience took some profundity away from something & I felt nothing, I’d rather the opposite be true. I’d rather make music that *I* love.” That hit me.
I love how he always praises is little sister, and she always does the same about her big brother. Their relationship is so incredibly special. He is a literal genius.
@@Finneasofficial I should’ve done my research 😅 wow!! Amazing! I’ll make sure to check ‘em out - and I can’t wait for the next one! Thanks for the reply!
Fabulous music aside, I absolutely LOVE how he always has Billie’s back. He basically said to everyone who thinks they KNOW them and what they’re about, that those people have no clue. Finneas and Billie are forever EVOLVING as musicians and as people, and that’s okay!
@@nottheone582 they always argue too, but they also laugh and have fun making music, they know how to respect their family and this is the first thing.. then by always being together since they were children (homeschooled kids) they are used to living with arguments, then they said that as they grow up they are arguing less so it's good😊 with normal not toxic family, the more you grow up the less you argue with them… teen phase is normally the worst phase!
She's made sexist comments towards men and is very superficial, we don't need to know her to know that she is not a good person. People who are good people don't body shame others like she did
@@jimhansen9753She said something rude when she was like, 17 years old. Teenagers sometimes say dumb things they regret later. And you forget the part where she later apologized for saying it.
Honestly I need a “10 hr loop of Finneas talking to sleep to” him explaining their process of making music is just so!!! You can really feel the passion.
I love love LOVE seeing how all these little background invisible nuances melt into the song where you may not know what's in there but it's so magical what it adds. Finneas is the most talented and genuine producer I've ever heard. And Billie's voice is just so perfectly fitted into what Finneas makes. They're the perfect songwriting team.
I'm sure Billie and Finneas already know this but Finneas is a massive part of her success. The rest of it is Billie's great vocal talent and likeability (she radiates empathy so is probably the most likable artist on the stage today).
7:32 this is exactly what I love about his production, I always listen to billie’s music and EVERY TIME… I kid you not every time I find a new favourite sound in the song, it feels amazing and chilling when the music I listen to everyday still feels new ❤️ also my favourite part of the song is Billie’s ad-libs in the second chorus like those back vocals of her yelling “I don’t know how to feel” gives me chills even tho it’s so subtle. It makes me sad in the best way possible
I remember watching a video where Finneas came up with the piano sound in “Everything I wanted” and IM STILL taken aback from his creativity in that moment.
Locks for Visual Media and Video. 50:50 for ROTY. Unclear for SOTY. Unclear for Billie and the duet. A super duper GREAT year for anybody else. Good year for B&F.
@@adamcoeyup, when Jethro Tull beat Metallica for best hard rock/heavy metal, I stopped watching. And then years later I think it was MTV when Beyoncé didn’t win in the woman’s category but that same song won for best overall, I was done. I also stopped watching any awards show as they are all garbage anyways…
Finneas possesses a natural gift for artistry. I was truly captivated by the way he eloquently discussed the creation of this song. The video was fantastic. Like @jp_idol, I wholeheartedly concur that we need more videos of this caliber! I thoroughly enjoyed the video; it was crafted like a movie.
The arguments about who's more talented or which one might still be famous without the other is trivial because it's the magic they create together that makes them special. When you put two idividually-talented people together who have their level of symmetry, they make each other better. It's the same as famous acting duos who are talented in their own right, but are even better when they work together because they bring out the best in each other. It elevates their abilities and produces some of their best work.
Listening to his stuff on really good quality monitors is such a joy. The precision and intimacy of the soundstage image he creates, it's incredibly inspiring. It is wonderful to let it just wash over you, but the fact that all the technical details are there as well if you want to take that away is just the icing on the cake.
Props to Finneas, for everything he does. I feel so inspired by how he explained every single little detail that went into making what was I made for. And I swear the way he and Billie interact with Each other is beautiful. Billie is amazing as a person and man she has changed a lot when she was so young. Talented, beautiful, inspiring, kind, caring, lovable to her fans, and so much more.
Finneas has such a beautiful manor. just the way he expresses himself and also billie is so enticing to watch. probably the most talented producer out there.
🔊 I like Finneas talking about his music work on Billie's music : he can freely give e-lessons to many beat-makers or musicians that appreciate what he have to make. Waiting for the 100% rock album of Billie. 🔊
@@FjKGKjF I think that would be so dope. I don't know what direction it's heading in, but judging from the EP and her single I'm assuming not there. Unfortunate but eventually. I also want to hear one from Taylor Swift to be honest.
i like how finneas and billie make music together in the public eye because now if either one of them ends the other as a result of sibling rivalry it requires a lot more effort to hide the fact :)
Finneas is a music genius! I would not have found my fave artist ever if it wasn’t for him. I always include him when I praise Billie because he’s the one that makes things happen!!! 🥹🥹🥹
I watched a live version of this song that had the tears flowing down my face. One of my favorite songs of hers. Bellyache was the first song that I heard around the time she first came out and I was immediately in love. Nobody really knew who she was yet. I remember being completely shocked that she wasn’t more popular, and then she blew UP. It was bittersweet because she was our little secret for the fans that did love her. We wanted to keep her to ourselves. 🥹 To watch her grow, evolve, her sound change several times…it’s been amazing. This young woman is one of the most talented artists that we are going to see in our time, and this family is so beautifully talented. I love what these two have created together.
Litterally art. I love listening to their stuff and finding hidden shit like he mentioned. Everytime I listen to the song I find something I didn’t hear before
Have to amend a previous nod to just Billie for this song, because clearly it is the genius of Billie AND Finneas that made this amazing work, one that is exactly one of those songs you feel on a subatomic level. They are both next level and so look forward to all the music they continue to make together.
this whole interview literally a proof how deserving this song is to be played around the world. if this song won a grammy and people ask why, just show them this video
Your fantasy is real, Finneas. I heard this song first with no context to the film at all. I nearly had to pull my car off the road to listen when it came on first time. The song is haunting, brilliant, sorrowful and optimistic... pure genius. Keep doing what you do and I will keep loving every bar. Kudos to you both!
I adore the behind-the-scenes of brilliant Finneas' and Billie's masterpieces! I will never tire of watching and listening to them talk about their process. Thank you for this little video @Variety 😘
MASTERPIECE! I confess I don't know Billie's music AT ALL. When I watched the Barbie movie and this song came on I was immediately like WHO IS THIS? Then forgot about the song. Today, during a difficult time, the song came on the radio AND I sat in my car... feeling every word and every wave and every second of this song in it's entirety!! Watching this video and all the layers and hidden elements... I am in love with the song. It sounds so simple. So natural. It touches your soul. The arrangements are beautiful. The words created for Barbie are cute but it's such a heartfelt melody.
I just love how Finneas talks about music and his creations. It's so beautiful. I love how they have a blood connection, a vibe and a soul connection. And we clearly see that through their music.
Guys just stop throwing out words like genius, masterpiece here and there. Everything doesn't have to be a masterpiece. They are creating things with their soul and having fun, it's good music, good times. It's not that hard, anyone really interested should try out making music and have fun. Don't hold yourself to unrealistic standards and give up
This comment section is A VIBE!!! Love it! 😍 Not unexpectedly, of course, as Billie and Finneas seem to be both incredibly empathetic and kind people 😊 Wonderful to land in a corner of the internet that is this positive and supportive 🥳 Oh and the song is a masterpiece, I get goosebumps every time I hear it. ☮️ &❤️
Love your comment! I think this song is one of my all-time favorites. I just don't ever see not getting emotional when I hear it. It gets stuck in my head for days at a time. I'm an older person, but Billie and Finneas' music speaks of my life just as easily as a teen...the mark of brilliant artists! 💞
This song will earn the following nominations. 1. Grammy Award for Best Song Written for Visual Media. 2. Grammy Award for Best Pop Solo Performance. 3. Grammy Award for Song of the Year. 4. Grammy Award for Record of the Year. 5. Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song. 6. Academy Award for Best Original Song.
8:44 I’m always talking abt how i feel this way with music and especially his. I know that when i progress as a producer I’m gonna have to have my own sound and authenticity but the style of his own songs and production resonates with me a lot and i feel we have that similar feel in terms of creating music even though I’ve never met him.
they're so many sound elements that just disappear into the mix and his painting analogy was amazing yet I could hear these individual melodies as a song because they are just so nice
3 things. 1: Best song of the both of you ever. And what a great production. 2: Love the new decor of your studio (after the localised flood, so to speak, what a mess). 3: Latest CD "happier than ever", first new LP (in 37 years and using a 47 year old deck) "don't smile at me". Thanx, Variety, for the great interview. P.S. And great video clip, great backyard concept, great realisation. P.P.S. CS80 really?
I can’t wait for more and more of the world to give Finneas his laurels and honors as really one of the best producers of our time!! Each song is always smarter and more complex than I think it is 😅 Awesome that this song is genuinely so simple and so complex at the same time
Patrick has done a wonderful job instilling as much wisdom and self reflection into his children that they are inspiring millions with just a fraction of what he knows. I am in awe and thankful of both Patrick and Maggie for the wonderful job they did raising their children. Billie and Fineas have such a connection between them that allows them to create and connect to everyone. That's the real success of their music. Love you all. BIG FAN!❤
Thank you for sharing this. I'm so moved by the closeness you share as siblings and the beautiful art that you create together. I wish I had that with my siblings, it's a rare gift. I also love that your parents slept in the living room so you could have your own bedrooms. I did the same for my son and was judged for it. I'd give my life for that kid, what's a bed matter. You do what you can with what you have. Look at the stellar humans they raised. Proud parents, no doubt. Respect 🤜🤛👊🎵✌️
So basically he produces music like a painter. That's such a cool and profound approach and it makes so much sense. Damn it, Finneas. He's such an inspiring artist. Him and his sister are the best duo
They're both so insanely talented. I can't wait to see the album.
My favourite artist
@@nasimmasonWhen did they announce a new album? And what date is it? I’m so excited!
@@Fatasha776 I can't remember what video but there's an interview with billie talking about the album. I'll try find it for you.
@@Fatasha776 no date yet, but they said its on the final stages, so we'll probably get an announcement soon

Billie and Fineas have such a connection between them that allows them to create and connect to everyone. That's the real success of their music. Love you all. BIG FAN!❤
Thank you for sharing this. I'm so moved by the closeness you share as siblings and the beautiful art that you create together. I wish I had that with my siblings, it's a rare gift. I also love that your parents slept in the living room so you could have your own bedrooms. I did the same for my son and was judged for it. I'd give my life for that kid, what's a bed matter. You do what you can with what you have. Look at the stellar humans they raised. Proud parents, no doubt. Respect 🤜🤛👊🎵✌️
You both created a MASTERPIECE. Absolutely flawless. So exciting you two are around making music.
A phenomenal duo. Unmatched talent but also trust in one another’s creativity and musical intuition
