Billie Eilish, Khalid – lovely

Music is Therapy


Eilish is actually her middle name. Before she was born, her parents, Maggie Baird and Patrick O’Connell, saw a documentary about conjoined Irish twins, Katie and Eilish Holton, and decided if they ever had a daughter, they wanted to name her Eilish. But when Maggie was pregnant, her father, Bill, passed away, so they named her Billie after him instead. Meanwhile, Finneas, who was four, insisted on calling her “Pirate,” and that stuck, too. And thus, her full name: Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O’Connell.

It’s not true
Tell me I’ve been lied to
Cryin’ isn’t like you
Ooh
What the hell did I do?
Never been the type to
Let someone see right through
Ooh
Maybe won’t you take it back?
Say you were tryna make me laugh
And nothin’ has to change today
You didn’t mean to say, “I love you”
I love you and I don’t want to
Ooh
Up all night on another red eye
I wish we never learned to fly
I
Maybe we should just try
To tell ourselves a good lie
I didn’t mean to make you cry
I
Maybe won’t you take it back?
Say you were tryna make me laugh
And nothin’ has to change today
You didn’t mean to say, “I love you”
I love you and I don’t want to
Ooh
The smile that you gave me
Even when you felt like dyin’
We fall apart as it gets dark
I’m in your arms in Central Park
There’s nothin’ you could do or say
I can’t escape the way I love you
I don’t want to, but I love you
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

Billie Eilish, Glastonbury, England. 2022





Did Billie Eilish even know she was performing at the Grammys? The way she rocked out while singing “Happier Than Ever,” jumping up and down and smiling at her brother, guitarist-producer Finneas, she seemed like she was owning a moment all her own. Not even pouring rain — or the fact that she would walk away with zero trophies among the seven she was nominated for, an egregious shutout given the year she had — could ruin the good time she was having on top of a prop mobile home as she belted “Just leave me aloooo-ho-ho-hone.” But she didn’t lose herself completely; she still remembered to hold up her T-shirt, repping late Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins, sharing in her triumph.
