Billie Eilish - Happier Than Ever (New Album)

[Phoenix]

Coming out July 39 with a new song next week

 

[RJN]

Well that’s a change in look for her! I love the combination of the title “happier than ever” and her crying

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Oh.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Hmm.

 

[ManicKangaroo]

 

[GNL]

I like her new RICH LADY aesthetic.

 

[Halli]

the whisperer RETURNS

 

[Cerro de Casa]

I'm not here for a sophomore album from her yet. Go away for a bit please.

 

[Phoenix]

Her album is over two years old. Also it will be her third.

The text placement

I'll certainly give it a GO. She's great.

 

[Pipo]

I don't want happy upbeat Billie (which is what the title suggests) I want moody, SAD and suicidal Billie please

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Her album is over two years old. Also it will be her third.

I thought the first one was an EP or something

 

[GNL]

I don't want happy upbeat Billie (which is what the title suggests) I wan moody, SAD and suicidal Billie please

The lyric "when I'm away from you I'm happier than ever" and the SOLITARY TEAR on the album cover suggest she is still on DOOM AND GLOOM.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

I liked the album a lot, and I still love 'Xanie', 'Strange Addiction', 'Everything I Wanted' etc. but it just doesn't feel like she's been 'away away' - what with the documentary and everything. Anyway I'll happily eat my hat if/when this turns out to be great..

[Diddy]

Coming out July 39 with a new song next week

July 39th? Is that a Friday or what

 

[Diddy]

That album title twinned with the bleak expression is it sounds so sarcastic

 

[ManicKangaroo]

 

[Dark Carnival]

LANA?!

 

[ManicKangaroo]

 

[funky]

Very nice. Much prefer the new look too.
It’s a big week for new music so far! And it’s not even Friday yet!

 

[Cerro de Casa]

I like it. One has no choice to be frank.

 

[Pipo]

yass Billie, make me cry over and over again.

 

[Pipo]

Tracklist

 

[Jark]

if I wanted 16 (!) tracks from a DEPRESSIVE BALLADEER...

...i would listen to Lust For Life

 

[RJN]

It’s surprising Lana hasn’t taken the name “Male Fantasy” first

 

[GNL]

Looking forward to the Billie Bossa Nova

 

[funky]

Looking forward to the Billie Bossa Nova

what a song title

 

[FetchFugly]

HOW DARE YOU

I love this, absolutely gorgeous, but I do wonder long term what impact releasing this kind of understated material will have on her mass appeal. It will be interesting to see how for how long she keeps on piling up the streams.

 

[Jark]

up to 3 on Spotify global with over 6m streams yesterday

 

[GNL]

Quite a reinvention!

 

[Loufoque]

It's lovely. Perfect for several years of COVID-induced PTSD.

 

[Pipo]

 

[dUb]

gone a bit boring now hasn't she

 

[funky]

Billie does R&B! I love it.

 

[OutSynk]

The new song is a bit good.

 

[Pipo]

another week, another single but this one bops a bit

 

[RJN]

I like this one more than the others but it still doesn’t live up to the last album

 

[funky]

This one is probably the least instant of the new ones but it has some wonderful production. Reminds me of her earliest stuff. Quite trippy.

 

[POP!]

This is out now - any highlights ? Not sure I have the strength today to make it through the 16 tracks
