Billie Eilish - Therefore I Am

The lead to BE2 or another filler dud like My Future?

[Tansike]

Ugh, she really should wait a bit if the performances of her latest songs are anything to go by.

[shinydiscopaul]

It needs to be good, in the same vein as bad guy - we've had enough ballads.

[aRat]

Hopefully not a throwaway dud like My Future

The problem with Eilish is: She seems to love those stripped and slowed down tracks like 'Ocean Eyes' or 'When The Party's Over'. Which song on the other hand is her signature song, is her most successful one on the charts and won her multiple Grammys? 'Bad Guy'! If she's smart, she'll record an album with like 2/3 uptempo-like songs (e.g. Bad Guy, Crown, Bury a Friend) and 1/3 slower ones (e.g. Party).

She doesn't need to record 2/3rd bad guys. And her doing stripped and slowed down tracks is not a "problem" She can make whatever music she chooses to. Nor does she need to be held to the success standard of "Bad Guy" for every single she released . Ocean Eyes and When the partys over are both massive songs. In fact When the Party's over is 4 times platinum in the US, Ocean Eyes is 3 times platinum.

She needs to keep it fresh and keep her individuality. You cannot recreate bad guy. It worked because it was unique, same as all her other hits.

I also think she needs to work on her choruses ... my future was flat

Time to edit the topic title.

[Ska8er]

Time to edit the topic title.

Thank you!

Surprised she didn't drop this alongside her virtual concert.

[Carbon]

My Future > Bad Guy

she is evolving, doing an album full of Bad Guys would be disappointing

[spiritboy]

She's yet to release another bop like Bad Guy though. I hope this song sounds different than the 2-3 songs she released recently, she should try and experiment with new sounds.

[aRat]

From the title it sounds like another bore is coming

[BeeBoy]

I actually don't mind if it's as great as lovely, when the party's over or wish you were gay.

I hope she delivers something like bellyache.

Billie Eilish, Sam Smith, the Weeknd and Ariana Grande have got one thing in common: If you give them all the artistic freedom, they'd release an album full of mellow 5/10 filler tracks. Some artists will blossom if you give them artistic freedom. They are the ones who need a slight push from other( professional)s in the right direction to achieve their full potential.

Agree I am hoping for something upbeat or at least something along the lines of Bury a Friend.

[Ska8er]

Not a ballad.

[theMathematician]

Is an album release already announced?

[JeremySpears]

Sounds like a banger to me.

[Ska8er]

No news of an album, but I'm guessing she could release one at the start of next year alongside her documentary.

[BeeBoy]

Yeah that's probably the plan. They will most likely just release singles until something is a hit. I like the snippet, sounds indeed a little like bury a friend

[Tansike]

Wait, that snippet actually sounds really good!
