Watch Billie Eilish React to Fan Covers of Her Biggest Songs
Billie Eilish became an instant music powerhouse in November 2016 when her debut single “Ocean Eyes” went viral. The 16-year-old singer-songwriter has since amassed millions of streams, which is incredible—especially because she’s only released nine songs so far. Olympic snowboarder Chloe Kim even raved about Eilish when we interviewed her a few months back.
“I love Post Malone. When he’s in his feels, he’s the best. ‘Stay’ is such a good song. And I love Billie Eilish,” she said. “I’m into more mellow music typically, but when I’m snowboarding I’ll listen to hard rap. Playboi Carti is everything.”
Kim isn’t alone in stanning Eilish. She now has a legion of loyal fans, and many of them cover her songs on YouTube Music. We had Eilish stop by our offices a few weeks back and watch a few of the renditions, and her reactions were everything.
Eilish’s fans have covered all her biggest hits, including “Lovely,” “Ocean Eyes,” “Bellyache,” “When the Party’s Over,” idontwannabeyouanymore,” and “you should see me in a crown.” And all the interpretations are different. Eilish loved each of them, obviously. Check out her thoughts in the video, above.
“If there’s a song that, for you, is like you hear it and you’re like, ‘Ugh, this is my song,’ that’s your song then. I don’t want to say it’s my song,” she told us. “Yeah, I made it, I wrote it, I sang it, but it’s your song from here on out.”
