You can change, and you can change your mind, which I think the internet forgets.Īnd I mean, you are changing: You've changed your look recently, you are experimenting with different types of music on this album. And I wish I would take my own advice in that realm of just like, it doesn't matter. I think that you just have to keep going and not not be scared of living, I guess. It's like, if you're at the dentist getting your wisdom teeth done, and they give you anesthesia and then you say to yourself, 'I'm not going to fall asleep, I'm not going to fall asleep,' you can't not fall asleep. I think that there's not much you can do. What have you learned about coping with that glare, though? I mean, what do you do to remain you?

Like its predecessor, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?, it's a collaboration with her brother and producer, Finneas O'Connell. Her second full-length album, Happier than Ever, is out now. She's won seven Grammys over two consecutive years, run circles around her peers on the Billboard Hot 100 and become a figure of discussion and scrutiny, some of it perhaps a little too familiar. Billie Eilish's second album, Happier than Ever, is out now.īillie Eilish has a message for the world: " I'm not your friend / Or anything, damn / You think that you're the man / I think, therefore, I am." Still just 19, the pop supernova has spent the past few years living a very public life.
