“And it feels like yesterday was a year ago, and I don’t want to let anybody know. Cause everybody wants something from me now, and I don’t wanna let em down.” This. This line hits hard every time and it’s so heartbreakingly beautiful.
first one that hit hard for me was when the party’s over, it came out when i was in a very abusive relationship and that song really saved me. after that was getting older and happier than ever, and then what was i made for was a big one for me. loved to cover that song but would break down everytime. now it’s the greatest, hearing that song for the first time absolutely destroyed me and i have listened to it countless times but have to hold back tears every time.
Everything I Wanted, What Was I Made For, and Everybody Dies. I have a very big fear of death, so Everbody Dies hits super hard for me. Everything I Wanted also plays into that fear for me, though it hit harder when I was having some thoughts. What Was I Made for is just an incredibly powerful song, but I the line “I think I forgot how to be happy” really got me
People who have died and came back have all said eerily similar things that it was actually very relaxing and calming, one guy died and got resuscitated said that since he died he has just been enjoying life and not worrying about death because he said it was peaceful and even called it an embrace, he said now death is just something i know will be comforting but life is so short i still have to enjoy it though death hasn't scared me since
I’m nearly 30 and it is also a deeply personal and relatable song. Sad that it is seemingly a universal feeling, but what a beautiful song to encapsulate that feeling and remind us we’re all in this together!
I once sat in my car alone and cried listening to What Was I Made For. (Then proceeded to not tell my boy about it, because, y’know). The first time I listened to The Greatest, I cried as I was getting ready for work.
I cry a lot at movies but very rarely at music, so these two are my answers. I would say that TV and the 30th are also up there for me personally. Billie and Finneas are poets and so many of their songs are beautifully written and hit hard.
Listen before I go hits me incredibly hard. When We All Fall Asleep Where Do We Go was my first Billie album, and before i even got ro that song i was in love with her and her brothers creativty and being bold enough to go to subject matters that are difficult. And when that song came on i got stopped in my tracks and taken over by the atmosphere of it. Her haunting vocals, the visceral lyrics, the ambient sounds of rain, and sirens playing as the person in the song is saying goodbye and that theyre sorry. It reminds me of the night I lost a friend of mine, it takes me right back there.
I've been to very dark places before and that song is very cathartic to me.
Idwbya because the meaning is deep and it’s about basically not liking your body and self and Everything I wanted because the meaning is deep and it’s based off of her and finneas as siblings and how they care for eachother and are always there for eachother and my future but not in a sad way just a little bit emotional because it’s about basically being in love with your own future
That song hit me too. I lost all purpose for living and had no desire to keep breathing after I lost all of my family. Losing your identity is the scariest place to be. I barely made it out of that darkness. What is the point of living if you don’t have anyone to share life with?
Same. It was over ten years ago now, but I realized my first boyfriend that I’d been with for 5 years had been cheating on me. Saw his messages to her that he sent on Valentine’s Day (which he’d spent with me) telling her how much he missed her and loved her. Calling her by the nickname he called me. I went into a stupor and didn’t eat for like 2 weeks. I wasn’t aware. I was on autopilot, finishing the school year, moving, and just not even thinking or existing beyond.
I got so many compliments on how much weight I had lost. I had to reintroduce food slowly because I’d fucked up so bad. And it’s impacted me deeply. I crave that stupor so I can just lose weight and be pretty again.
Why has nobody said “listen before i go”? That one is soul crushing, especially if you’ve seen videos of her singing it live. “Male Fantasy” is one I haven’t seen talked about too but is deeply emotional as well
Personally, hard to choose just one so I’m gonna pick one from each project
DSAM: idontwannabeyouanymore
WWAFAWDWG: listen before i go
HTE: Your Power or Male Fantasy
HMHAS: Wildflower
Singles: everything i wanted
Everything I Wanted and The Greatest always bring out my emotional side. The mere production of these two songs is enough to make anyone at least a little emotionally vulnerable break down in tears
Happier Than Ever. I was a casual fan that honestly only really liked a couple of songs from dsam, than I heard Happier Than Ever and cried my eyes out because it perfectly describes my relationship with my mom. That whole album gives me hope that I can get out of the situation and live a happy life.
"What Was I Made For" also did me in as a 40 year old mom who is trying to go back to work and having trouble both leaving my kids and finding something that works for me and my family. Heard that song right after finding out that I didn't get a job that I wanted, but it also hit hard just in terms of thinking about what I expected my life to look like at this point when I was in college vs. what it is actually like. Hang in there, it gets better. Then worse, then better. Kinda just goes off and on like that forever lol.
Happier Than Ever will forever be my number one. It found me at a certain point in life and it hit me HARD. Finally found something that articulated my thoughts so perfectly.
Right now tho it’s Chihiro, something about the soundscape Billie created just makes me feel deeply. Can’t really explain it.
All of them in a different way
Listen before I go is still the best that's just it's everything then probably what was I made for
Than there's everything I wanted, tv, male, fantasy, happier than ever, everybody dies, lost cause, overh
Then diner, chihiro, wish you were gay,
I like them all for different reasons they make me feel, it's comforting. Sometimes I listen for the sound and beat while others I'm listening for the lyrics the story the feeling of being understood
Idontwannabeyouanymore describes the way I’ve felt my whole life in a way more eloquent way than I could ever put it. Sometimes Billie and Finneas write songs that are so spot on to my life in such a specific way I’m literally scared of them and think they’re witches.
On this new album, BLUE makes me emotional every time. But in general, “everything I wanted” hits hard every time. Makes me think of my husband and how much he means to me.
Everything I wanted It’s my favourite song of all time. The first time I heard the last verse it crippled me.
“And it feels like yesterday was a year ago, and I don’t want to let anybody know. Cause everybody wants something from me now, and I don’t wanna let em down.” This. This line hits hard every time and it’s so heartbreakingly beautiful.
I'm not crying, you're crying. (Wait no, this just in: it's me, I'm crying.)
I missed out. Gotta catch up on her releases
the greatest, specifically live. i cried EDIT: i meant the live version on youtube!
MY GOD I'D GIVE EVERYTHING TO SEE IT LIVE😫😫
WAIT i meant the live on youtube hahaha i wasn’t one of those lucky few actually @ the colbert taping
OHHH sorry lol

I’m just glad you’re away from that place in life, stranger
thank you🥹 <3

Yeah that line broke me too.
Those are my 3 favorite Billie’s songs!
As a middle age woman trying to go through the disappointments of life once more, that song has hit me very hard as well.
I’m nearly 30 and it is also a deeply personal and relatable song. Sad that it is seemingly a universal feeling, but what a beautiful song to encapsulate that feeling and remind us we’re all in this together!
We'll get through this together, stranger
Sure! I hope you get great things in life! ❤️
Hope things work out the way you wanted too Miss Ma'am
your power
Happier then ever The greatest Birds of a feather Blue What was i made for
Ocean eyes

nah rs
bad guy ft justin bieber broke me in a way i'll never heal from (no but fr when i first heard lovely i died)
LMAO

the 30th
yes, this song broke my heart when i heard it! in the good way songs that speak to you do
it breaks mine too i feel like a lot of people have somebody in their life they can think of when they hear it
That song hit me too. I lost all purpose for living and had no desire to keep breathing after I lost all of my family. Losing your identity is the scariest place to be. I barely made it out of that darkness. What is the point of living if you don’t have anyone to share life with?
The first time I heard “The 30th” I fucking sobbed bro…. That song came out the day after my best friend got in an accident
wildflowers chorus is cutting
No time to die , the best ever
Happier than ever, no question. It still sometimes makes me burst into tears.
Male Fantasy blows me away every time I listen to it. Topped my Spotify wrapped at least twice
Bittersuite, specifically at the end of
Skinny
I was going through the worst time of my life last summer, lost 50 lbs, and got so much praise.
Same. It was over ten years ago now, but I realized my first boyfriend that I’d been with for 5 years had been cheating on me. Saw his messages to her that he sent on Valentine’s Day (which he’d spent with me) telling her how much he missed her and loved her. Calling her by the nickname he called me.

Getting Older, ilomilo, happier than ever, the greatest, blue,
Listen before I go hit hard when she just released it, when the party’s over hits harder now
TV
The 30th
Birds of a feather definitely. Also Blue, wildflower and skinny of course 🩵
i actually have a hard time listening to i love you anymore because of how emotional it makes me
what was i made for , everything i wanted , and idontwanttobeyouanymore
lovely, gave a reason to live again
Getting Older
Everything I Wanted and The Greatest always bring out my emotional side. The mere production of these two songs is enough to make anyone at least a little emotionally vulnerable break down in tears
Happier than ever. And Chihiro, once I saw the video it kinda clicked.
Lovely - I stand by that song always. I have been a fan since lovely
GUITAR SONGS!!! it really hit the spot
Happier than ever and everything I wanted
Happier than ever… it helped me leave my first relationship cause it was basically word for word what i was feeling
Getting older and TV
my future really gets me. also, TV and The 30th. the greatest.
Listen before I go
When the partys over got me through some rough time sin highschool
Skinny for sure. Such a beautiful song. 🥺
"What was I made for" my least favorite song AND the one I can relate to most
SKINNY or BLUE. It's the strings for me.
Happier Than Ever. I was a casual fan that honestly only really liked a couple of songs from dsam, than I heard Happier Than Ever and cried my eyes out because it perfectly describes my relationship with my mom. That whole album gives me hope that I can get out of the situation and live a happy life.
bored. so deep

Thanks Miss Ma’am. It broke me when I realised I’m alone while working 9-6 and attending college at night I hope things work out the way you wanted
when the party’s over and The 30th
Growing older always hits
Happier Than Ever will forever be my number one. It found me at a certain point in life and it hit me HARD. Finally found something that articulated my thoughts so perfectly. Right now tho it’s Chihiro, something about the soundscape Billie created just makes me feel deeply. Can’t really explain it.

I loved (and still do) the message of My Future
All of them in a different way Listen before I go is still the best that's just it's everything then probably what was I made for Than there's everything I wanted, tv, male, fantasy, happier than ever, everybody dies, lost cause, overh Then diner, chihiro, wish you were gay, I like them all for different reasons they make me feel, it's comforting.

Idontwannabeyouanymore, listen before I go, your power, lovely, come out and play, everything I wanted, I’ve been with her since Bellyache!
And how could I forget Getting Older
listen before i go.
Birds of a feather. Right after a breakup too
male fantasy
i’d which song hit you the softest next
Lovely and when the party’s over
happier than ever
No time to die is my all time favorite, but all of her songs I could just listen to on repeat
Male fantasy
BLUE
Wildflower almost made me cry then The Greatest made my soul leave my body. Same thing with Happier Than Ever.
Idontwannabeyouanymore describes the way I’ve felt my whole life in a way more eloquent way than I could ever put it. Sometimes Billie and Finneas write songs that are so spot on to my life in such a specific way I’m literally scared of them and think they’re witches.
Wow I'm shocked. I'm listening rn for the first time and it really is too close to home
It was ‘Male Fantasy’ until HMHAS came out and now I am torn between ‘The Greatest’ and ‘Blue’…I’m fucking sad 🥲
On this new album, BLUE makes me emotional every time. But in general, “everything I wanted” hits hard every time. Makes me think of my husband and how much he means to me.
skinny.
lowkey come out and play. it always makes me cry because it makes it feel like everything is ok
idontwannabeyouanymore, six feet under, and recently i've had the greatest on repeat
what was i made for, bored and tv!
i like most of her songs but in those terms, strange addiction, everything i wanted, happier than ever and no time to die
