Barry 5,932 Posted April 7, 2019 Can anyone tell me why her music is good or why she is likeable? I like it because it sounds good to me, it's kind of soft, melodic and chill - I would liken it to Lana songs like Salvatore, Money Power Glory and FMWUTTT where theres not really any depth or brilliant quality to it but the songs just sound nice. I was kind of disappointed in the album though as I thought there may have been a couple of songs with more depth to them but the whole album was really similar to me. She is also only 17, I dont know how much of the lyrics she writes herself either so I probably shouldn't have expected any songs that I connected with. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bored 7,935 Posted April 7, 2019 I really wish they'd put When I Was Older and Come Out And Play on the standard album instead of !!!!!!! and Goodbye. Or just worked them into the tracklist and kept the intro and outro. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Psychedelic Pussy 30,106 Posted April 8, 2019 I really wish they'd put When I Was Older and Come Out And Play on the standard album instead of !!!!!!! and Goodbye. Or just worked them into the tracklist and kept the intro and outro. Ok yeah !!!!! is such a pointless track but goodbye is literally one of the best songs on the album and it ain’t even a full song 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Charlottexseax 7,930 Posted April 8, 2019 Can anyone tell me why her music is good or why she is likeable? when the party's over is the best ballad of 2018?? but ok i guess as for the likeability, idk about that. i mean shes a white girl who can sing and has put on a whole persona around being quirky and emo and sad and i guess it's working? people love famous white people's struggles 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
violets 11,896 Posted April 8, 2019 https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/music/la-et-ms-billie-eilish-album-coachella-interview-20190408-story.html "But just stop. I don’t care. I don’t want to hear that Billie Eilish is the new Lana Del Rey. Do not disrespect Lana like that! That woman has made her brand so perfect for her whole career and shouldn’t have to hear that" i feel bad that she has to say this stuff herself because of comparisons made between the two. she loves lana and some people on here have to respect and understand that. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Masochism 15,400 Posted April 8, 2019 when i was older / come out and play really don't fit in the album at all. like, you can clearly tell that the songs are about different themes than the rest of the songs on the album. i'm glad she kept them off, they were for other projects and it shows. lol 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TRENCH 15,450 Posted April 8, 2019 http://hitsdailydouble.com/sales_plus_streaming Already sold over 200k albums by yesterday just in the USA I didnt actually think she was really that big and popular. its the most pre-ordered album in Apple Music's history (for now, since it only began in 2015) 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
National Anthem 9,902 Posted April 9, 2019 i think xanny is suuuuuuch a beautiful song. i wasn’t sure about the distortion on it the chorus the first time i heard it but i’m obsessed with it now. it’s so classic-inspired. ughhhhhhhhhh this whole album > 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
