1. i love you 2. listen before i go 3. bury a friend

[@mikaaaxxx4316]

Her mom was really anxious about "listen before i go" but Billie said in her doc something like: its better to write about jumping off of the rooftop that doing it. So this song is like her suicidal note from when she was in a really bad place in her life

[@wendybijellberg]

fun fact: billie explained that the "i cannot do this snowflake" part was because when billie was recording the song (her and her brother finneas recorded all or most of the songs in her childhood bedroom) it was around christmas time and she was crocheting a snowflake for her friend and she just said that lmao they decided to leave it there because it was funny

[@jenellet5988]

I made that my text alert tone. 😆

[@817._.priyaaa]

I feel like in a sense, when the party’s over refers back to xanny. Because when you listen to xanny it sounds like she’s at a party. And xanny talks about how she doesn’t like the choices they make. And when the party is over is talking about how she could say she likes what you do but she doesn’t. Idk if I’m right but that’s what it sounds like to me.

[@thebascometwins]

Love this too!

[@cxutiegamer3676]

When the party’s over was referring to she has built up all this emotion and she could lie and say she likes it like that but when really she doesnt and in the music video the black liquid is referring to the pain she built up and she finally lets it out correct me if im wrong

[@dania.d2897]

37:38 “take me to the rooftop.... there is no way but down...” the person is on the rooftop of a building, the only way for them is down ie: jumping off the edge of the building hence the sound of sirens and the sound of wind whooshing at the end

[@CharlieBrownGIGA]

I swear ilomilo doesn't get the recognition it deserves ;-;

[@kiana6818]

nah fr especially the "said I couldn't love someone cause I might break, if you're gonna die not by mistake" :(

[@sumeya1923]

@@kiana6818 she’s says something similar in xanny. “I can’t afford to love someone who isn’t dying by mistake” she says it so heartbreakingly beautiful. it’s heartbreaking when you suddenly think of one person that it reminds u of wether it is family member past lover, friend etc. I’ve never heard something so true in a song.

[@leilani6156]

“listen before i go” was actually about when she was on tour and she was tempted to jump off the floor she was on to all the way to the ground, i think she said in berlin? which she said in a interview. but she didn’t do it and i’m glad she didn’t, she also said that her mom stopped her from doing it.

[@katyagroscost2307]

Also, I don't know if you guys realized but the end beat of bury of friend goes straight into ilomilo, and seems to add to the fluidity of dreams. Love your guys vids!

[@destinywoods750]

Finally someone notices lol

[@nomadine85]

I also love that my strange addiction kind of sets up the song in a way. “Did you like it, did you like that?” “Which part?” - “Billie” It makes it sound like she liked the Billie part. “No, Billie, I haven’t done that dance since my wife died”. That transition always makes me so happy. As well as the bury a friend and ilomilo transition. And the intro to bad guy transition. I think I just really love smooth transitions. And there are even more on happier than ever. Happy sigh

[@flouritecollector]

2 years gone and it still has major reach and impact. It's an iconic album that will only be more regarded as time goes by . Only (hopefully) to be dwarfed by the very near release of BE 2.

[@jowii.6170]

You can notice that in “Wish You Were Gay” she replaces the number eight with “ate”. The song 8 is mostly about how you’ve fallen in love with somebody that you know you can never have which ties into wish you were gay because the guy doesn’t give her attention or “looks at her like she’s see through.” So basically 8 is just another area of how she was feeling during the events of wish you were gay.

[@nomadine85]

Ooohhh niiiice

[@indie0202]

But she also said that she wrote it from her friends that she hurt perspectjve

[@joseantoniogomezrodriguez1724]

@@indie0202 yes originally it was gonna be called "see through" but she changed it to 8 to connect it to WYWG because is the same feeling

[@celine_anne]

The fucking fact that billie writes music that we can analyze and break apart and literally try and find a deeper meaning shows how amazing her and finese are with creating storyline music with a purpose.

[@elliex4550]

8 was originally gonna be named 7 on the album (before they added the intro) 7 was a nickname for her ex boyfriend he was always called sev or seven so i’m not too sure if it has anything to do with that however the room at the billie eilish experience for her album the room 8 was inspired by him

[@elliex4550]

@Peter Mertes that’s what i said lmao didn’t u see what i put in brackets 😭

[@jaderhoden9897]

@Peter Mertes she said that 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[@frostedark998]

another number thing in wywg that I noticed is that the first verse is counting down 6,5,4,3,2,1 and the second verse 12,11,10,9,8,7,6. the only number that's in both is 6 and wywg is the 6th song

[@mylijahollison5088]

If goodbye is referencing all the songs in reverse and the whole album is about dreaming and when we fall asleep, could goodbye be talking about like how when you wake up you forget what you dreamt about. Either forgetting it completely or forgetting a majority of it except for little snippets, like how she had little snippets of each song in goodbye

[@nomadine85]

What’s so exciting about the progression of the ‘energy’ of the album is that the entire thing feels like the progression one goes through during sleep. It starts out with the brightness of the day still twirling in your head like bad guy, going into the distorted smooth thoughts of Xanny that’s like that moment one drifts off into sleep, the initial few dreams that are perhaps on more of a recounting level (wish you were gay, when the party’s over, 8), then during the more intense REM sleep, the dark and heavy worst part of sleep, the emotional turmoil of bury a friend, then the deep sadness and almost anxious tiredness of ilomilo, listen before I go, and I love you, and last but not least, that hazy awakening phase during which one remembers only tidbits of dreams, most likely in a reverse order, the way one tends to recount dreams when trying to remember them upon that drowsy awakening. It ends sort of groggily, having experienced all of that, and remembering only snippets of the entire progress of that place one goes to when one falls asleep.

OH MY GOD HOW HAVE I NOT FIGURED THIS OUT BY NOW

this album changed my outlook on music sooooo much

[@nadianaddour3968]

you guys are the only people I've watched that actually take time to analyze the lyrics and listen to the song and I love that so much

ILOMILO NEVER GETS THE LOVE IT DESERVES thank you!

[@wonderlandian8465]

Again cant stress enough how much i enoyed your guys interpretations of the songs

[@jayh233]

I absolutely LOVE how you guys break down the album and talk about the lyrics as much as the production its so great to watch as someone who is also a lyricist!

[@dublin0]

my favourite part of the album is the final 3 tracks. they're sonically similar, but also their placements in sequence tell their own story. "Listen before I go. I love you. Goodbye." Genius.

[@youknowsoobinsoobinyouknow]

"listen before i go, i love you, goodbye..."

[@wonderlandian8465]

What a great reaction guys. Admitidely i didnt know what to expect when i heard this 2 years ago but man did it turn me into a full on Billie and Finneas fan. Hoping that their 2nd album is just as interesting as this was from start to finish. From theme to lyrics to production to song structure..

[@jasmenmarie9758]

8 is written abt herself from the perspective of somebody she hurt . and in wish you were gay , she substituted the number 8 with the word ate , she says “ i ate alone at 7 u were 6 minutes away “

[@goodoleblondie2467]

No joke, listening to this album when it came out I was on the bus with my campers going home, right when she first says “I love you” a car passed with the license plate literally saying “love you”

[@kiyahrenae]

I love seeing when people react to this album. 8 is one of my favorite song. And when they pointed out things of “you should see me in a crown” I was very happy bc I didn’t even know that. The swords thing and the sound.

[@jaheaniagreene8145]

When she said “the friends I had too bury” is a reference to when XXX tentation died. They were really close friends, and she was really affected by his death. Basically this song was about him.

[@jaheaniagreene8145]

And the song I love you was about him too.

[@newyorkmyndd9801]

So, yea, probably the most attentive and thoughtful reaction and breakdown of this album I have seen on YT. Thanks for posting this,✌️

I feel like this album is all about dreams when you fall asleep that’s why she was taking her Invisalign at the beginning and then the dreams start with bad guy just like a normal dream then the dreams start getting deeper and deeper till i love you then goodbye when she wakes up and remembering all of the dreams backward but im not sure.

Wowww I can’t believe it’s already been 2 years...WHAT

[@yee3133]

right!!

[@ariifitz8341]

8 comes from a perspective of the other person, and actually how the whole song is that person telling all of that to her. so she really put herself in the others person shoes to understand the situation they were having. xanny its so interesting to me and i just love it so much, especially the bridge. at the end of xanny she sighed because they were making that song or finishing the song around when xxxtentacion had died, and it was hard for her. thats why the end of xanny its like that feeling of wow, you know what i mean? ilomilo. just iconic. its about losing the person you most love and wanting to protect them. and the production in that song its just so well put together. and the beats. ugh just love it so much. the lyrics too. and one more thing, goodbye is genius asf. they did that. and it was just like a good way to put it all together, did you guys know that the beginning of goodbye, is actually the background of xanny's bridge. and that definitely blew my mind. ugh finneas and billie are such geniuses. they're really changing the music industry. i love them so much. also i loved your opinions on the album and your perspectives of the album, i really agreed with them and it made me open up my mind more and have different thoughts of the album, love you guys

[@Its_kaitlinn]

Idk if yall know this but Billie said that the last 3 song titles formed a sentence, "Listen before I go I love you goodbye." Probably already knew that but i figured i'd say it anyway. This was a great reaction you're interpretations are really interesting

[@isabellanesheiwat8]

I think that the reason When The Party's Over is called that can be summed up in one line: "Quiet when I'm comin home and I'm on my own". She's so used to giving other people what they need constantly, having to think of your impact and affect/effect and relationships with other people before you give that consideration for yourself, that even when you live alone you sneak inside so you don't make any noise and wake someone up. Even after everyone's left (maybe literally like they stopped being in her life, or just left the party), she's still unable to put her oxygen mask on first because its become so second nature to help others first.

[@gabib4966]

You just blew my mind with the numbers in “wish you were gay”. 😂 I never noticed she skipped 8 in that song. And then there’s a song called “8” in the album

"Ohhhhh i know this one!" 😂😂😂

[@edwardhaines7917]

Guys, I think Xanny is about the isolation of being with people who are erasing their consciousness, talents, joys...etc. Addicted to coping substances as they waste themselves. She's communicating to a particular person probably "please don't kiss me on the sidewalk" but also generally to her whole generation.

[@xoxo60551p]

I feel like The Whole album is like being in a relationship it starts of happy The to the arguments then the ending of the relationship

[@joseantoniogomezrodriguez1724]

Yeah, and also in I love you it starts with the same flow of listen before i go and starts with the lyrics "it's not true, tell me i've been lied to" and the ooooh it makes it feel like is receiving the news about the su*cide of that friend they rejected and then realized they love them too, but it's to late.

[@kiarramarie542]

Okay some key things that I noticed the day this album came out and I listened to it. so in Xanny and one of the verses she sings “morning as they come down” and the adlibs are “come down”. She does the same for the rest of the verses “they’re pretty heads are hurting” (hurting) “there awfully bad at learning” (learningggggg) and then at the end of the song when she’s humming she says those words so it’s basically cohesive Also I feel like this is something that is not caught by many people at all so listen before I go at the end you can hear cop cars and sirens because we all know this song is about ending it all and what she was going through at the time so it basically just confirmed that she did what she was talking about in the song
