Billie Eilish: Change is a gift, don’t be afraid!

Billie Eilish paused for a moment before giving her Oscar acceptance speech for Best Song for What Was I Made For? . She emotionally thanked female director Greta Gerwig first, before her voice trailed off. Because the offer to write the Barbie soundtrack helped Billie “break the cocoon” of creative ideas, as well as “transform” her personality a lot.

Before writing What Were I Made For? , Billie Eilish had a long period of running out of inspiration. She could barely write anything “real” for many months. When female director Greta Gerwig showed her some scenes from the movie Barbie , and was asked to write a song for it, Billie regained inspiration to compose and sing the most beautiful things.

Of course, without waiting for What Was I Made For? Billie Eilish is a pop superstar (though she doesn’t see herself that way.) At 15 years old, Billie became a star when she released her successful debut EP. At the age of 18, she won 5 Grammy awards including Best New Artist, Song and Album of the Year. At the age of 22, Billie won an Oscar for the second time, the first artist born in the 21st century to do so.

Bad things may come but…

Since she was a child, Billie has been immersed in music. Her father himself often creates personal music tapes (half of which are songs by The Beatles) and plays them in the car.

Billie’s house is also filled with music, from soul artists of the 1950s to rock music of the 1960s. Aretha Franklin, The Beatles to Green Day, Avril Lavigne, Coldplay, Lana Del Rey… have become Billie’s “spiritual food” since childhood.

Without music, I don’t know how to organize [my life]? When I’m not writing, I listen. Music gives me courage and it waters my soul.

Music became an indispensable gift in Billie’s life. One funny thing is, Billie does n’t feel right if she walks into a house that doesn’t have a piano in the living room.

Billie’s love of music also comes from her mother, an amateur composer. She once organized a basic songwriting course for Billie and her brother (music producer Finneas O’Connell) consisting of 10 sessions in 10 weeks. The most basic lessons have helped Billie become interested in playing the piano and composing from her bedroom.

Bad things can happen. But you can write it down and turn it into a song.

Of course, Billie Eilish doesn’t just talk about it, she actually does it. In her bedroom, she composed many songs about her own anxiety, her best friend’s depression, and the dreams of young girls to fall in love, allowing the song “feminism” to sing in her heart. soul rang out.

Billie always appreciates the process of writing song lyrics, but it’s not necessary to “tear your heart out” to compose. She still plays the role of a friend, a young person, an inanimate doll… to create music that can move others. That magic comes from talent, and also from tireless labor, mistakes and efforts to create happiness (that can be heard and felt) through music.

The world is always changing, so are you

Billie Eilish is loved for her ability to create unique melodies and sounds, as well as her in-depth way of writing lyrics. She is also loved for her ability to discover how “music works” and then recreate it perfectly, helping the public easily sympathize.

It’s difficult to transcode an idea in your head and make it understandable to others. But you will still live and die doing it. Sometimes you will have to do it alone, no matter how difficult it is.

Every valuable product contains a lot of effort. Just don’t get discouraged. One of the ways to help Billie turn “impossible” into “possible” is to realize the possibility of transformation. Billie applies this both in life and in artistic creation.

Change is one of the gifts that exists in this world… You just need to continue living, don’t be afraid of life. You can transform and you can change your mind.

Billie believes that basics are the root of creativity. You just need to know the basics and change a little, you have created something new. That’s why Billie often creates songs that do not have a regular structure, but always change flexibly.

Billie also applied the change when using the melody of the previous song to create the beat of the next song; Use the story of this song and twist it a bit, to create a new song.

Don’t say you’re passionate about What Was I Made For? if you didn’t fall in love with My Future from Billie’s previous album Happier Than Ever . Billie has a special talent in transforming, from a small song to a musical image.

From his debut album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? Coming to Happier Than Ever is a change on many different levels. Fans recognized it as Billie and also recognized the new version with a few changes.

Billie Eilish’s two attempts at composing songs for movies are also considered changes in Billie Eilish’s approach and musical creativity. Two songs, two different materials, two different stories and narratives but both won Oscars.

Even though she only saw a few scenes, Billie created masterpieces like No Time To Die and What Was I Made For?, contributing to her musical treasure.

It really isn’t about alienating yourself from your reality and past or dreaming about yourself in the future, it’s just about keeping faith and being happy about the idea of ​​change.

All things, heaven and earth, Billie Eilish, you and I will change. The world will change and there are always countless possibilities. Therefore, you should accept that nothing is “static”, “still”, “immutable” in this life.

What helps us be more courageous, less skeptical and adaptable is recognizing change. And of course, change a little for the better in life’s journey. A little bit every day.
