(born December 18, 2001) is an American singer-songwriter born in Los Angeles, California. Her parents, actress Maggie Baird and Patrick O'Connell, are also both musicians.Eilish's music, often described as "noir pop" for its world-weary tone and dark lyrical themes, is a unique brand of blues-y minimalist alternative pop featuring her signature breathy vocals as well as intricate, subtle sound design. The closest approximate label for this sound that many have taken to is Bedroom Pop, with Eilish being credited for paving the way for the genre to enter the mainstream. Her music is a collaboration with her multi-instrumentalist brother Finneas O'Connell, who handles most of the production.Eilish's first viral single, "ocean eyes", was released in 2016 when she was fifteen years old, and was followed the next year by the EP dont smile at me. Her debut album, WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?, became the most pre-ordered album in Apple Music history before its official release in March 2019. It debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200, making her the first artist born in the 21st century to reach that slot. At the 62nd annual Grammy Awards in 2020, Eilish became the second person in history, after Christopher Cross in 1981, to win Record, Album, and Song of the Year along with Best New Artist in the same year.In January 2020, she was announced as the performer and songwriter of the main theme of No Time to Die, the 25th James Bond film. She's both the youngest singer and youngest songwriter in the history of the franchise. The song was released 20 months before the film itself due to the COVID-19 Pandemic delaying the release, and won several awards, including the Grammy Award for Best Song Written for Visual Media in 2021, followed by the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song, the Critics' Choice Movie Award for Best Song, and the Academy Award for Best Original Song the next year. This also makes her the first person born in the 21st century to win an Oscar.In 2021, she was the subject of the documentary Billie Eilish: The World's A Little Blurry, released theatrically by Neon and on streaming by Apple TV+. Five months after the film's release, her second album Happier Than Ever was released in July of that year. 2022 saw her co-writing songs alongside O’Connell for the Pixar film Turning Red. The following year, she and O’Connell contributed the song "What Was I Made For?" to the soundtrack of Greta Gerwig's Barbie film; this would earn Eilish and O'Connell another Oscar and Golden Globe, as well as two more Grammy Awards. | |

New Sound Album: Happier than Ever, mainly for the sheer variety of different styles and sounds on display, as her previous album and ep had a more similar sound to each other with their electronica-embellished modern R&B tunes, Odd Future style hip hop production and some emo/alternative rock influences added to the mix. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech | |
| Billie Eilish (Music) / int_7d89315b | comment |
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: The track "Happier Than Ever" is an ruthlessly scathing one delivered to an ex who treated the narrator terribly, with the title referring to how she's only "happier than ever" when she's away from him. It's clear that she doesn't want to publicly air out all their dirty laundry, but with the fact he keeps targeting her after their breakup in an effort to make it about him, she puts him on full blast as a way to tell him to get out of her life forever. | |

Simple Score of Sadness | |
| Billie Eilish (Music) / int_83c9369b | comment |
Simple Score of Sadness: Many of her melancholy songs are very miminalist in terms of composition, often constructed with just enough instrumental to create "empty space" that draws emphasis to her voice and lyrics. "xanny", for instance, is largely Billie's voice (and accompanying self-harmonies) with a single controlled bassline, punctuated with distortion, piano riffs, and percussion at sporadic points. | |

Perishing Alt-Rock Voice | |
| Billie Eilish (Music) / int_cb9dc500 | comment |
Perishing Alt-Rock Voice: Her singing style is often noted as being low-energy, bordering on sleepy. Subverted big time on "Happier Than Ever" (the song), showing her range includes Harsh Vocals and Metal Screams. | |

Lighter and Softer | |
| Billie Eilish (Music) / int_ce6555f0 | comment |
Lighter and Softer: Happier Than Ever flip-flops with this compared to WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP. Instrumentally, while still generally more subdued than most mainstream pop, it features a more eccentric mix of genres influences that are quite upbeat for Billie, with several beats inspired by the likes of Techno, Country Music, Bossa Nova, and Pop Punk. However, as described by Billie herself, "almost none of the songs on [the] album are joyful", still featuring weary, introspective topics influenced in large part due to her various anxieties and personal insights. | |

Indie Pop | |
| Billie Eilish (Music) / int_e2825ffb | comment |
Indie Pop: Her style of music can be charitably described as this, but it's much darker, minimal, yet eclectic than the title might let on. Some critics describe it as "pop noir". | |

The Oner | |
| Billie Eilish (Music) / int_e7e558 | comment |
The Oner: "Therefore I Am" is almost this, consisting of Billie being filmed on an iPhone getting up to mischief in a deserted shopping centre. The almost is due to her needing to take an trip on an elevator and the filmer needing to reposition themselves as a result. "What Was I Made For" is a simple, one long shot of Billie sitting at a desk trying to put her miniature clothes on display while random freak weathers mess with her. | |
