Billie Eilish : Therefore I Am

Whether she’s singing in an empty mall or, from the looks of it, in the bowels of hell, Billie Eilish knows how to go have fun. On Sunday, the “Therefore I Am” singer and her brother/collaborator Finneas took the American Music Awards stage for her first live performance of her new single, which premiered earlier this month, along with a music video any mall rat would love. The only place more socially distanced than a desolate suburban mall is a series of empty narrow hallways, so Billie continues to stay on trend.
Lyrics :
I'm not your friend or anything, damn
You think that you're the man
I think, therefore, I am
I'm not your friend or anything, damn
You think that you're the man
I think, therefore, I am
Stop, what the hell are you talking about? Ha
Get my pretty name outta your mouth
We are not the same with or without
Don't talk 'bout me like how you might know how I feel
Top of the world, but your world isn't real
Your world's an ideal
So go have fun
I really couldn't care less
And you can give 'em my best, but just know
I'm not your friend or anything, damn
You think that you're the man
I think, therefore, I am
I'm not your friend or anything, damn
You think that you're the man
I think, therefore, I am
I don't want press to put your name next to mine
We're on different lines, so I
Wanna be nice enough, they don't call my bluff
'Cause I hate to find
Articles, articles, articles
Rather you remain unremarkable
Got a lotta interviews, interviews, interviews
When they say your name, I just act confused
Did you have fun?
I really couldn't care less
And you can give 'em my best, but just know
I'm not your friend or anything, damn
You think that you're the man
I think, therefore, I am
I'm not your friend or anything, damn
You think that you're the man
I think, therefore, I am
I'm sorry
I don't think I caught your name
I'm sorry
I don't think I caught your name
I'm not your friend or anything, damn
You think that you're the man
I think, therefore, I am
I'm not your friend or anything, damn
You think that you're the man
I think, therefore, I am

Billie Eilish : Ilomilo

 Billie Eilish : Ilomilo(Visualizer)  “ilomilo” references a 2010  puzzle game  where the player must unite “Ilo” and “Milo,” small round characters on separate ends of the level who require teamwork to meet at the end. Finneas confirmed this  when he replied to a fan’s Instagram story . The track’s title is pronounced “ee-low-mee-low.” As  WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?  is based on fears, Billie confirmed to a fan  on Instagram  that “ilomilo” is about the fear of separation. According to Billie on her featured episode of  First We Feast’s  Hot Ones : …The whole idea is the game, it’s just like, losing the person you love and then finding them again. In an  interview  with Radio Energy, Eilish listed “ilomilo” as “—one of my favorite songs I’ve ever written in my life.” The beat of the song was teased at the end of “ bury a friend .” The song’s Spotify artwork was done by  @junkie.cowboy  on Inst...

Billie Eillish - Bury a Friend According to a January 2019  Alternate Press  article, “bury a friend” is written from the perspective of a monster under Billie Eilish’s bed. The track details a confusing relationship with this ‘entity’ and ambiguously sets her up to be the monster itself. A snippet of “bury a friend” was teased by Eilish on her  Instagram page , as well as on  Twitter  and  YouTube , on January 28, 2019. The visual depicts Billie’s face being grabbed by several gloved hands that reach in from off screen, until the closing lyrics and album title are displayed. She posted  on Instagram  the following day, announcing her debut album would be titled  WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO? The song itself features a Prismizer effect, which manipulates pitch and frequency characteristics to achieve a choral phase, much like Eilish’s other January release, “WHEN I WAS OLDER.” Her friend Mehki Raine ma...

Billie Eillish : bellyache

Billie Eillish : bellyache  In “bellyache,” Billie tells a fictional story about murder from the perspective of a psychopath. The song focuses on themes of guilt, as revealed by Billie in an interview with  Vice: ‘Bellyache’ is about the concept of guilt, when you do things in the moment because you feel so strongly about them. In the end you’re left with the decision you made. That line—"I thought that I’d feel better, but now I gotta bellyache"—is about how you kinda know that you’re the worst but you don’t care. It’s about a psychopath who regrets being a psychopath but doesn’t really care. Billie later revealed that the main inspiration for the song was Tyler the Creator’s “Garbage:” Garbage was one of the biggest inspirations for writing my song, “bellyache.” It’s more graphic than my song, it’s more literal and “I’m killing people and putting them in my basement” kind of song.…I’m a huge fan of Tyler, he’s been my biggest inspiration ever.
