Sub if you enjoy so you can catch future uploads!

[@mateusvinicius7]

REACT HER L'AMOUR DE MA VIE PLEASE

[@tessabrown6558]

Her brother and producer wrote a song, Ocean Eyes and had Billie sing it when she was 13. It was for a dance class she was in. They put it on soundcloud for free and it went viral. Shes been around ever since...going on 10 years.

[@stevensmind]

@@tessabrown6558 oh wow thank you for telling me! I will have to react to that!!!

[@MisterDarkfall]

LOL then you got me: 44 yr old male, driving in my car blasting Billie. MY JAM!! lol. Caught her concert in Atlanta too. Blown away by the talent.

[@stevensmind]

Hey I love it! I'm in ATL as well. I saw NF live not too long ago. Billie is super talented! I didn't realize until yesterday.

[@kevint.184]

"Ocean Eyes" was written recorded in the bedroom by her and her bother when she was 13 for her dance class and they put it on sound cloud. The rest is music history.

[@stevensmind]

@@kevint.184 that’s such a cool story, I wish I was a good singer lol it’s funny. I am a film television actor and I got my first lead role in a feature film because of a monologue I put on KZbin. I’m obviously not famous or anything though.

[@stevensmind]

Just uploaded your suggestion Kevin

[@junlucas69]

The Greatest and Happier than ever is a must, dude. Love those two songs, sounds very different and more rock-ish towards the end.

[@stevensmind]

I will have to check them out!!

[@sandraschumacher5879]

Just for your guidance. Two singers tried to classify their first two albums into a genre, and in the end they came to the conclusion that the albums cover over 20 genres. Billie is her own genre. and Birds of the Feader is her poppiest song. 😅

[@stevensmind]

Haha yeah i just did ocean eyes and i can totally see what you’re saying! She’s good

[@gigatoob]

This is not typical Billie sound, as its very poppy. Love took control of her in the video. This song topped 2024 Spotify streams. Too bad you divide men and women artists but glad you checked her out. Billie is a once in a gen talent imo... she and her brother have 19 Grammys.

[@stevensmind]

@@gigatoob ohh okay! I’ll have to check out more of her music then. Got a couple suggestions. i do like a lot of female artists though.

[@gigatoob]

@@stevensmind Some variety of songs - Chihiro, What Was I Made For, Bury A Friend, Happier Than Ever.

[@Craigy2818]

So, I don't know if this is bad to say but I'm Autistic and I tend to be very good at telling these things (it's even noted in research that we tend to notice people like us) and I feel that he could be. We tend to compartmentalise things into categories and have specific things a specific way, which could explain the separation of artists into groups (male, female, boybands, girlbands, etc...). I could be wrong but I'm not usually 😄

[@mushpurple]

Not all of her songs are the same she has a lot of varieties

[@stevensmind]

@@mushpurple any in particular you’d suggest i react to next?

[@luc_01_luc]

@@stevensmindchihiro, happier than ever, xanny, are probably each completely sonically different from each other so should show her versatility!

[@stevensmind]

@@luc_01_luc I'm taking notes over here for my next reaction videos. Thanks! I appreciate it!

[@2013tomaz]

it is the most magical video that connects us with the beyond and gives us faith in eternal love

[@Partycat968]

Her being dragged all over is by the persons love. There is a Behind the scenes of the making of this video. She doesn’t usually do straight forward videos. Most of her videos have a deeper meaning to them all. She was 13-14 when she was discovered by singing ocean eyes a song her brother wrote for his band. It was just supposed to be a song that her dancing teacher and class could dance to. There are two versions of the ocean eyes video. One of her just singing and one of them dancing. She tore her growth plate in her hip so she couldn’t dance really anymore so she then started dining more. Her brother is her producer and they write together. She has her EP and the three studio release albums. She is currently 23 years old and her brother is now 27.

[@stevensmind]

Oh wow so her brother still works with her? That's really cool! If it aint broke don't fix it huh!

[@MadisonPressley-r9t]

You should react to behind the scenes of birds of a feather

[@stevensmind]

@@MadisonPressley-r9t that would be interesting i could do that!

[@anthonygutierrez3716]

React to her recent album. This song is in it but she is her own genre

[@stevensmind]

I will 100% do that! Thanks for the suggestion !

[@darlinesly9364]

You should listen to her Soundtrack song with her brother Finneas for the Bond Movie No Time To Die, Bad Guy, All The Good Girls Go To Hell, and Happier Than Ever.

[@CurtisPoppenhouse]

You may have heard her singing "No time to Die" from the 007 movie of the same name.

[@MrsApplegateart]

Just came over from your 1st RENexperience…. If REN is my male genius… then. BILLIE (& HER BRO FINNEAS) ARE MY GIRL GENIUS… YOU WILL find that like REN, she switches up her sound ALL THE DAMN TIME… you cannot say she’s electro/retro pop…. This is actually part of an “album experience” she didn’t release any singles…. The album was dropped as a 1 conceptual package…. This is the top hit off of it…. You should deep dive her… she’s only 23… and she became famous off a track released when she was 14…. First album 17… she’s only done 3 full albums…. She is AMAZING… her and her brother who has produced ALL HER MUSIC… they are a team…. Though she may start branching out a bit…. Welcome to Billie/Finneas.

[@stevensmind]

oh that's awesome! I can't wait to dive into more of it!

[@RobbieLValentine]

You opened the video and paused right away to react to her being ‘poppy’-no need to apologise for that, brother! That’s exactly why I clicked on your video; I enjoy your perspective. I also think the clever edit at the beginning, with her arm movements and ‘unusual’ expressions, is meant to externalise her internal world. To me, it reflects her experience as someone who’s neurodivergent and living with Tourette’s syndrome. It might also symbolise self-love at the start, with the way she moves freely, but being dragged later could represent the weight of others’ love or expectations. I could be completely off, but that’s how I interpreted it!

[@stevensmind]

Thank you! I have a mild form of Tourette's myself. I've always suffered with ticks that change over time. I used to jerk my head really hard. Then a hard blink, then I used to make a weird noise I couldn't stop doing it and now I slightly jerk my head subtly and I sniff my nose a lot. It's really frustrating. When I try NOT to do it the urge is only compared to holding your breath where you have to just do it. It's not fun brother. I am right there with you. Thank you for your kind words!

[@GreatCatsby_]

sade is a good compraision

[@stevensmind]

I was scared to say that I wasn't sure if people would come after me in the comments haha. surprisingly people have come at me quite hard for saying "I'm a dude" in reference to not choosing her music to listen to as a first choice in the car. I had to delete those comments lol. I think she's great and I'm looking forward to listening to more of her music!

[@GreatCatsby_]

@stevensmind i would love to collab with you.

[@stevensmind]

@@GreatCatsby_ Thank you! Do you also do reactions?

[@amos_hartley974]

When i first heard this song, I had the same exact thought. Huge fan of both BTW :)

[@stevensmind]

@@amos_hartley974 Glad I'm not alone in that!

[@adiarainfoster]

Billie's songs are all different from each other. This is probably the most poppy I've ever heard her. She doesn't really fit over all into a single genre though

[@malachigames1]

So the meaning of the music video is

[@stevensmind]

yeah being dragged by love! so interesting

[@lindaal7220]

btw you can be a guy and also listen to Billie :)

[@stevensmind]

Im starting to like her lol
