I think that the most straightforward meaning is the future me, the future person that I'm going to be - but also the future world that I'm going to live in and the future friends I'm going to have and the future people that I'm going to surround myself with. " In this song, there's a line that says, "I'm in love with my future / Can't wait to meet her." I haven't been able to stop thinking about it it's a really interesting line. The last thing I want to talk about is " My Future. I don't know, I just love a little feel-good, you know, move around feeling, sexy little song.Īnd you've just made a lot of people in Brazil happy, I can tell you right now. I wanted to pay respect to bossa nova and Brazil and just the entire culture around it cause I love it so much. I have a very special place in my heart for Brazil. The first fan account I ever had was Billie Eilish Brazil. It's like the main place that I should go. I want to actually go to Billie Bossa Nova because I used to live in Brazil, so I was real happy to hear this. We should say, there are also happy songs here - about love, the good part of connecting, the sort of empowering part of being with someone. ![]() And I was having a like, heart-to-heart with them, trying to tell them not to. this wasn't an actual situation of my life, but I thought it would be interesting to write it as if it was me talking to somebody that I was friends with or in my family, or somebody that I knew, and they were abusing their power. The song is kind of from the perspective, like. When did you start to realize that every girl, every woman, has a story where they were sort of taken advantage of? ![]() When the song " Your Power " was released, I sent it to a bunch of my female friends and relatives, because I think it speaks to something that a lot of girls and women have dealt with. There's a lot about womanhood in this album and exactly what you're talking about, the ways in which it can be twisted, the ways it can be taken advantage of. It's nobody's responsibility to cover themself or restrict or restrain themself for somebody else's, like, weak willpower. It goes for all women who wear what they want and a man says, "Oh, don't expect me to not harass you if you're wearing that." It's like, no - that's your responsibility to not harass me. And that goes for so many different things. To that point, the song " Not My Responsibility " is saying something similar with its title - which is, whatever you see is about you, not me. I like this thing this time, and I like this thing that time. I see people call me Blonde Billie - like, "Blonde Billie said this, but Green Billie didn't say this." And I'm like, what the hell? I'm not a category of a person. It's just funny that people see new photo shoots and immediately think that you're a different person. I want to ask about your aesthetic, how you see clothes and appearance playing into your art - and if you see that as part of the music, and how you interact with people who love your music.įor this one, I wanted the theme of old Hollywood and beautiful and classy. You can change, and you can change your mind, which I think the internet forgets.Īnd I mean, you are changing: You've changed your look recently, you are experimenting with different types of music on this album. And I wish I would take my own advice in that realm of just like, it doesn't matter. I think that you just have to keep going and not not be scared of living, I guess. It's like, if you're at the dentist getting your wisdom teeth done, and they give you anesthesia and then you say to yourself, 'I'm not going to fall asleep, I'm not going to fall asleep,' you can't not fall asleep. ![]() I think that there's not much you can do. What have you learned about coping with that glare, though? I mean, what do you do to remain you? I think it's just thoughts coming from a place of fury and unfairness and just feeling angry at the world and society, I guess. let alone being famous and having a million people look at you constantly. It's hard enough to be a young woman not in the public eye, and just have lots of public eyes looking at you. I think it was just a moment of being really pissed off as a young woman in the public eye: You know, it's infuriating. ![]() You can kind of understand it by just listening, I would say. You are now 19, and you've been in the public eye for a while.
