Billie Eilish

I love no time to die which is the theme tune for the new James Bond film (cross that the film will not be released until November now due to Covid-19)

My grandchildren don't listen to her, ( too young), but I do

Hugely talented young lady

Many songs over the years have had
dodgy/dubious/depressing lyrics

If my grandchildren enjoy her music as they get older I'll not be unhappy about it.

I think Billie Eilish is a refreshing change to half clad artists today. She quirky and her and brother are talented. I liken her to possibly Elvis Presley (female version) where people in his era were shocked by his dancing and music. I feel sorry for her as she has apparently been trolled and vile comments made against her, yet think she is a talented girl, who has her own style of music.

Very talented young lady who refuses to dress provocatively and regarding depressing lyrics/songs - Leonard Cohen anyone?

My DGD loves her. I like her music though admit I hadn't listened carefully to some of the lyrics. I was initially relieved that my DGD wanted to listen to music I like rather than rap or similar music which I hate hearing.

Oh, don't you worry, she is better than many other artists. She won the Grammys after all. I personally don't found her songs depressing and neither does my DGD. She is going to see her performing live in summer. She even did a school project devoted to Billie, she prepared the slides and the whole speech about her. I think it is great to have an artist who encourages teens to do projects about their music.

Another good point which i like about her is that she never dresses provocatively. That's a rare thing nowadays and I hope she will be a good role model for young girls in the future.

Billie is superb to my mind. I love her style and her voice

I would occasionally listen to Leonard Cohen when the mood took me but on the whole it's surely better for young people to be listening to something more cheerful and not to songs about drugs and suicide. Especially as we have so many young people actually killing themselves these days.
On a positive note, there are decades of wonderful music from the 20th century for them to listen to, a golden age of creative music. Try and introduce them to some of that.

I absolutely love and admire her. So young and so talented and her and her brother were interviewed. I got the feeling that she had a very old head on young shoulders. Was talking about bullying and how to cope with it. I just hope the fame at such a young age doesn't affect her. Very talented young girl.

I ve never heard of her my grandkids are all into drum and bass I ll have to have a listen

I think her appearance at Glastonbury might still be on utube.

...sorry, I meant catchup….

I think she's brilliant - and very talented too. Any time I feel low or depressed, I always want to listen to music/lyrics that most would probably call depressing. Bands like My Chemical Romance were heavily slated in the press when the goth/emo phase was at its height, but many fans have actually credited them with saving them when they were feeling depressed or even suicidal. It can actually help a great deal to listen to lyrics like that - it makes you feel that you're not alone in feeling that way.

Yes I too am a fan of Billie her voice is haunting . I am also a massive fan of Leonard Cohen and drove my teenagers insane with his music.

I love her, her music is dark and yet playfully pouty, her videos are like graphic novels-
