1
I think that my relationship to the fans has been so vital to all of this.
2
And I think like what you do for them
3
and how you make them feel is what's going to be the most impactful and rewarding for you and for them.
4
Hi, I'm Billie Eilish and this is a timeline of my career so far.
5
Ocean Eyes was the start of everything.
6
I think within about a week it had a thousand streams, which is not many now, but it was a lot then.
7
Just stuff was just changing really fast and I'd never really seen anything like that.
8
And it was alarming.
9
I was like 13, I think it was my birthday was like the next month
10
and I just remember things were just like building around me and I felt, I just was like, whoa, what is going on?
11
I was super cautious about all of it.
12
Hesitant and kind of making sure that I felt comfortable in every step of the way.
13
And I remember my mom being like, you don't have to do this.
14
You don't have to do this.
15
You can at any time, you can get out of this, you know.
16
My little excited, you know, determined, ambitious self wasn't going to listen to anybody.
17
Right after Ocean Eyes came out, I got injured in dance.
18
There was like a very, very intense injury that just completely just took me out of all things dance.
19
And that just shifted my whole life.
20
Dance was really like the thing that I loved the most and that I saw myself doing forever.
21
And not being able to, I mean, it was really hard.
22
Music really came in handy for me and got me through all of that.
23
I got injured and then we made like, Bellyache and Hostage and My Boy and the songs that then would become Don't Smile At Me that then came out later.
24
We wrote many of the songs from Don't Smile At Me in 2016.
25
That whole year we were doing like tiny little shows
26
and I remember there was a moment in 2017 where I got an encore for the first time
27
and I remember them being like, play another one.
28
And I was like, I don't have another one.
29
I literally don't have another song.
30
Like, I've played all of them.
31
For the first time and the last time, we rented out a studio because we thought, maybe it'll be good for us to have a studio.
32
Maybe it's bad if we make music at home.
33
We should just have a studio and, like, decide that we're going to make the EP in a studio.
34
And it was, like, hell.
35
It was literally hell.
36
Yeah, and then it came out in 2017 while I was on a tour with my choir in Canada.
37
I remember being on the bus with my friends with all of our uniforms on, and we had one of those earbud splitter,
38
like the dongle splitter, so we all would plug our headphones and our earbuds into the little dongle, and then I would play the new EP through it.
39
And my friends would always be like, play I Don't Want to Be You Anymore, play my boy, play this, play that.
40
It was very sweet.
41
What I really appreciate about that EP, it's like very young people, you know.
42
Wrote half of it when I was 13, 14, and then put it out when I was 15, and Phineas was 17, 18, 19.
43
Like young little babies that had no experience at all.
44
I look back and I'm like, ugh, I can't even.
45
But what I do feel about it is that we were
46
so experimental and we were so eager to try stuff and we were so eager to do anything.
47
We would have an idea and be like, why don't we just try it, even if it's weird?
48
And I appreciate that about the EP.
49
I was very nervous about a public image though.
50
I didn't know that everything I was doing was going to give me a specific image.
51
I was just doing whatever I was doing.
52
At the time, I remember I was just
53
so anxious about how I was being perceived
54
and really wanted to be seen as a certain thing and didn't really know what I was doing.
55
But I think I did a good job.
56
I think I did a good job given the fact that I was a little girl.
57
I first started recording When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? when I was 16.
58
Phineas was 19.
59
It was my first studio album.
60
We made a lot of it on tour in like little hotel rooms with Phineas' laptop.
61
And I remember writing multiple verses of Ilo Milo on a plane.
62
I remember like recording Wish You Were Gay in like El Paso.
63
Yeah, wherever we could make it, we did.
64
In the documentary, there's like a thing I say where somebody said about like, oh, well, your next album, this and I was like, I'm not making it in an album.
65
No way.
66
I really thought that.
67
I was like, I'm not doing this again.
68
I was like, love y'all. Be safe.
69
I'm not doing this again.
70
I didn't feel I was good at it.
71
And I also didn't know what I wanted.
72
The heavier theme thing in all my earlier music and now.
73
I swear to God, I never thought about it one time.
74
This was such a reoccurring topic for so long, which was like, why are your songs so sad?
75
And I remember hearing that and being like, what are you, what are we talking about?
76
People seem to forget that when you are a child and a teenager, emotion is the most intense thing in the world.
77
Everything feels like the end or the beginning.
78
I was just talking about this with a friend that like middle school felt like life was over.
79
And that's how everything felt then.
80
And so, you know, to be like, how could anyone young understand emotion?
81
Are you stupid?
82
That's all they have is emotion.
83
I've always had a real love and passion for music videos and visuals in general.
84
And I always wanted to direct them, but of course I had no experience and I was a teenager and why would I know what I was doing?
85
I mean, you know, I can imagine being the adult in the room and me being like, I wanna direct it.
86
And it's like, well, you can't, you know?
87
But at the time I was like, you know, why not?
88
Like, I don't, I know what I want.
89
I know what I want.
90
Oh my God, I know what I want.
91
And I think that I understood that that wasn't enough to like know how to do it.
92
But I think I convinced them all to let me, like, I think I proved myself is really what I mean.
93
And the first music video that I fully directed was Zanny.
94
Then Everything I Wanted.
95
And then basically everything after that.
96
But it's a lot of work.
97
When I first started, I was like, oh my God.
98
I would love to do it for other people as well, other artists.
99
The reaction to When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? was so like surreal.
100
And the response to Bad Guy, I mean, that changed my life.
101
Like Bad Guy completely changed my life.
102
That's really what this whole interview should be about, is Bad Guy and its effect on my life.
103
And then the awards, the Grammys was amazing.
104
It was literally the greatest thing that had ever happened to me.
105
And I could not believe any second of it was real.
106
That album really lives on for me.
107
Like that album completely changed my life.
108
So special to me and it's so pure to me.
109
Like it's so genuine to me.
110
The older I get and the farther away that album is from me, I feel so even closer to it.
111
When we were first making music, Phineas and I used to come up with little challenges to write songs.
112
We'd be like, let's try to write a song from the perspective of this person
113
and this is happening and da da da.
114
Like many times we would be like, let's pretend to write a James Bond theme song because that would be the coolest shit in the world.
115
And we were such big fans of Bond and especially for me, I loved Skyfall and just everything about that.
116
I remember it was like at a certain age where it really like stuck with me for some reason
117
and that visual that is going on during the song
118
and the movie and I just thought it was the coolest thing you can do as an artist.
119
So we would joke about it all the time
120
and it was never ever a reality
121
and then in 2019 Barbara Broccoli who was working on the film I remember hearing kind of about the fact
122
that they were looking for someone and looking for a song and I just remember just me and Phineas being like, whoa, whoa, whoa, like, please.
123
And then it was just like many conversations and meetings and we weren't sure at all.
124
Like we didn't think we were gonna get it.
125
And it was also like, so not in the bag at all.
126
Like it was very, very much, we're auditioning and maybe we get it and maybe not.
127
We were sent like the first 10 pages of the script, kind of told the plot-ish without like being given any spoilers
128
and then we wrote No Time to Die in a couple days on tour in like Texas or something.
129
Recorded it in the bunk in the tour bus.
130
And we didn't even know if we had the job.
131
We honestly didn't know for a while and then we already had gotten it and I had no idea.
132
And yeah, it was the coolest thing in the world.
133
We felt like we made a good song and we really wanted the part.
134
Hans is the best, the most incredible collaborator and he's such a genius and he's such a gork.
135
He's such a goofball.
136
I mean, it was just the most magical thing in the world.
137
We went to London, we got shown the movie,
138
and then we spent a few days in the studio with him and Johnny Marr and this whole orchestra,
139
and it was insane.
140
I mean, the Oscars is just one of those things, it's just like, Oh my god, I feel like I snuck in.
141
It was very cool and intimidating.
142
And I mean, we watched the Oscars every time when I was a kid.
143
It was one of my favorite things that we did as a family.
144
So performing was amazing, and then the next year I was nominated, and I couldn't even believe I was shortlisted.
145
And then I was nominated, and then I went, and then I performed again.
146
And that was insane.
147
And then we won.
148
And that was crazy.
149
I'm away from you.
150
Happier Than Ever was made with a little too much confidence.
151
And that's not a bad thing.
152
We're a little lazy.
153
But I love that album.
154
I really do.
155
And I loved it at the time.
156
And it meant that I grew.
157
Like I wouldn't have been able to get where I am now had it not been for
158
that album and everything that I did in that album.
159
And it was also kind of a me needing to break free out of a box
160
that I had felt like I put myself in or that the world put me in.
161
And from putting out Ocean Eyes when I was 13
162
and then getting injured and then being on tour for years
163
and being in meetings with a million people and a million agents and, you know, being a 14 year old in a room with only,
164
you know, grown ass people, mostly men.
165
And you know, I wanted to be dancing.
166
I wanted to be doing this.
167
I don't know.
168
I just, everything kind of just happened to me and I didn't really have much of a choice, but it's okay.
169
I'm not complaining, but, but it was a lot.
170
And then COVID happened and I was forced to stop.
171
And that I think happened for a lot of people, but of course I felt like I was the only one that was happening to you.
172
I was like, I just I just remember it was it was almost as
173
if blindly doing something that I really wanted to do
174
and felt like I really wanted to do and I was happy doing and then it was like just taken out, just just pulled away from me.
175
And I was just like, Oh, oh my God, I haven't actually thought about anything for four years.
176
And I don't know when I would have gotten to process anything that had happened to me if it weren't for that.
177
And we wrote all of Happier Than Ever in that period of time.
178
So it's a COVID album.
179
I mean, that's what it is.
180
The music was a completely different process than the reinventing of
181
the look coming off of those crazy couple of years and had won those Grammys that year.
182
And like, my shit did not stink.
183
I don't know, I just felt good.
184
But then I decided I wanted to go blonde and then I decided that I remembered that I was a girl, and I was like, wait,
185
I wanna be other things and not just this one thing that I've been looked at as for all these years.
186
And I remember ordering my, like a skirt off of Amazon.
187
I didn't have a skirt.
188
And I was like, I gotta wear a skirt.
189
I don't know, I was just having a lot.
190
Dude, I was 18, like I was trying to figure it out.
191
You know, I'd been told that I was one thing for many years and I believed it, which was definitely a lot, but I think that I needed to do it.
192
I'm an extreme person, like I need to have extreme sensation.
193
And I think that that was my way of expressing myself in the way that I knew how,
194
which was all, everything, all at once.
195
You must have had a rough childhood.
196
Did people ever call you things as a child?
197
Liar, stupid, pig.
198
What are you afraid of?
199
Nothing.
200
Are you afraid of death?
201
No. Why?
202
I think it was the day after I headlined Coachella.
203
We were on some management call or something.
204
I was talking to my managers and I remember one of them being like, there's this opportunity, but you're not gonna be available for it, so we're gonna pass.
205
Are you okay with that?
206
I was like, well, what is it?
207
And they were like, well, it's this show that Donald Glover is working on and it's called this and it's about that.
208
And I remember just being like, I'll drop anything.
209
Like, that's my dream.
210
What are we talking about passing on that?
211
And then I was sent kind of the early on script
212
and I just thought it was the coolest thing in the world.
213
And then Donald called me and kind of explained what the show was about
214
and explained how it was going and the things that, you know, whatever.
215
And he just was like, yeah, I was thinking about you.
216
And if you're interested, there's no pressure.
217
But if you wanted to, you could.
218
And I just, I mean, I was trying to keep it cool, but I was so, so excited.
219
I mean, he knows it and I sound like a broken record, but he was like my favorite of all.
220
I just love him so much.
221
And I always have.
222
And he's been one of my biggest idols since I was like 11.
223
Acting was something that I loved doing so much as a kid.
224
I just didn't do anything about it.
225
I just loved it, but I didn't do anything.
226
Also, like my brother acted and he would get jobs and I wouldn't, and that was annoying to me.
227
Mom, can I talk about your, please?
228
My mother wrote a movie about a family and it was a mom and a dad and a son.
229
She starred in it and she cast her own son to play her son.
230
And I was just kicked out, essentially.
231
And by the way, my childhood bedroom, they took everything out of it and replaced it to be the bedroom in the movie.
232
If she had had a daughter, she would have been happier.
233
Right?
234
Right?
235
And so it would have meant a whole other thing.
236
And I wasn't good.
237
Also, this is the other part.
238
So basically, I'm saying that was my villain origin story.
239
What color was the milk?
240
It was red. Did you hurt someone?
241
Yes.
242
Very good.
243
Basically, the whole show is surrounding this character, Dre, which is Dominique Fishback, who is like filled to the brim, overflowing with talent.
244
My episode is basically, she comes across this like sex cult.
245
She doesn't know what the hell is going on or what it is.
246
And it's kind of hard to tell.
247
It's not very obvious, but that's kind of what's going on.
248
And I'm like the leader of it.
249
Yeah, we just like gaslight the shit out of her.
250
I had so much fun.
251
It was like truly like one of the best weeks of my life.
252
She was also so amazing to work with.
253
And so much of the scenes that we did was just the two of us.
254
and that was really special.
255
We shot in Atlanta, and also Donald was there the first day for the first scene that we filmed, and it was just so cool and scary.
256
And they also changed the script five minutes before the scene, which was a lot, but I did it.
257
I asked my mom if she would do my acting coaching for that show, and she is the reason that I did even a little bit of a good job.
258
She is so good.
259
I would love to do some more acting.
260
I'm kind of embarrassed to say that, but I would love to.
261
It was a very, very different experience compared to No Time to Die.
262
It started off so casually.
263
I remember Phineas just being like, would you ever be interested in doing like the Barbie, like a song for the Barbie movie?
264
And I remember like that sentence, I was like, what?
265
Like, huh?
266
And I had no idea what that was gonna mean.
267
And you know, that could go either way like, what are we talking about?
268
Barbie movie, like, what does that even mean?
269
And then I remember those paparazzi photos of Margot Robbie
270
and Brian Gosling came out of them shooting and we were just like so excited about it.
271
And then Greta, Phineas goes, hey we're gonna get on a FaceTime with Greta later.
272
I was like, okay, okay.
273
I had like no, we didn't even, hadn't even really talked about it.
274
And we got on the phone with her and Mark Ronson, basically just told us what they had done and they were like,
275
movie's basically done, it's, this is what we have so far and you know, this is what's going on, we really want you to see it, can we set up a time, like whatever.
276
It was like so casual and I didn't think it was gonna really happen.
277
She set up a day for us to go to Warner Brothers
278
and the two of us went
279
and it was just like us in this empty theater and her literally two days away from giving birth.
280
And then a couple of people from her team, she showed us the work in progress movie, which is basically completely done.
281
She kept being like, it's not done.
282
But it, I mean, it was amazing.
283
It was so good.
284
I was so nervous.
285
I was like, how could this possibly be good?
286
Because how could anyone make a movie like this that's good?
287
And it was so, so amazing.
288
I remember just like moments during the movie, just looking at Phineas and being like, this is good.
289
This is really good.
290
And then went home, talked about it.
291
And then the next day we had a whole day of writer's block.
292
It was a whole day of creating stuff and just not coming up with a single goddamn idea.
293
And I was like, all right, well, I guess I'm going to go because this was a waste of a day.
294
And then as I was like getting up to leave, Phineas was like, do you want to try to write a Barbie song before you go?
295
I was like, that's such a ridiculous, ambitious thing to do.
296
Like, we're not gonna, we can't even write any other song.
297
We're not gonna write a really good Barbie song right now.
298
And he sat down at the piano and he immediately started playing those first chords.
299
And I had the handheld mic and I was sitting on the couch and I just started.
300
And then those first couple of lyrics came out and we wrote the whole song right then.
301
I mean, we were just so overflowing with like inspiration from that movie and what was going on in my life.
302
I had to fight so hard to not send it to her immediately, but it wasn't good.
303
Like, I had the worst recording of it.
304
So I waited like two weeks, and we recorded kind of a scratch vocal version of it.
305
And we were really nervous, but we felt really proud of it.
306
And she basically was like, I've been weeping all day.
307
I hadn't heard somebody use that word like that in a long time.
308
But the rest is kind of history.
309
I really kind of thrive when I write from some perspective that isn't my own kind of first-person perspective.
310
Like it can even be about my life, but if I think about it from just a different angle, it's a lot easier.
311
And so something that Phineas and I think really, really thrive in is writing for film and TV.
312
We have to like stop ourselves from saying yes to so many things when people are like, would you write a song for this movie?
313
Because I'm like, I want to because I like, I love writing stories.
314
It's storytelling, dude.
315
I do also write songs from my own perspective
316
and my own life and my own feeling but I think it's just harder to get there.
317
It's more vulnerable and you can't really wear a mask.
318
And both are great, so.
319
The approach of making Hit Me Hard and Soft was so daunting.
320
Never been more doubtful in our entire lives.
321
Never one moment of like, wow, we did a really good job.
322
Like we loved what we were making, but we really were terrified.
323
Also, Phineas and I, honestly, you know, when you're siblings, you go through like different periods of being on the same frequency.
324
And this was a period where we were pretty out of sync.
325
Not to put him like tell his business, but like he was really not enjoying making music very much.
326
And that was tough for me because I was the one that didn't enjoy making music for all those years.
327
And I kind of finally was enjoying it.
328
And then he would just be like, I have no I would rather be doing anything else like I want to be doing something else.
329
And I got it because that's how I used to feel and it's, oh my God, I was so terrified.
330
I was like, oh no. Phineas would remind me mostly, he'd be like, we don't have to put this out, you know.
331
We can make it and not put it out.
332
And I think that's important to remember is
333
that not everything you make has to be amazing and perfect
334
because I think part of the reason it felt so scary is the fact that we were so
335
doing exactly what we wanted to do and that can be really scary.
336
Being yourself is terrifying.
337
You feel like, oh, they're not gonna like me if I'm myself.
338
I have to kind of do this or like do this and then they'll like me.
339
And you realize that it's just that you're avoiding the vulnerability of being seen and being known.
340
And I think that this album is like a really good representation of that.
341
And when I think about it, it's really good kind of juxtaposition of like my life,
342
my friendships and my relationships and how I've been trying to really make an effort in being exactly who I am.
343
I kind of been saying this for years, but never really doing it, which is like trusting my gut and like listening to my body.
344
And it turns out that if you do what you want and if you are yourself, people actually like you more.
345
It's really hard to accept that.
346
And it's scary and it's vulnerable.
347
And it means that you can have experiences that are more hurtful because it's actually you, but there's more pros than there are cons.
348
I think I'm proud of myself, man.
349
It's hard to process this kind of thing when it's you.
350
It's really hard to see it and see it objectively
351
and know what it looks like to other people because you have your own experience of it.
352
I mean, when I think about my life, I get to do the coolest shit in the world.
353

Grammatik in diesem Video
Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:
| Struktur | Im Video |
|---|---|
| Present Perfect Continuous have/has been + -ing – eine Handlung, die früher begann und noch andauert | I've been weeping · I've been trying |
| „Used to“ used to + Verb – eine frühere Gewohnheit oder ein Zustand, der nicht mehr gilt | used to come · used to feel |
| Passiv be + Partizip Perfekt – wichtig ist, was geschieht, nicht wer es tut | being perceived · be seen · were sent |
| Present Perfect have/has + Partizip Perfekt – eine vergangene Handlung, die jetzt noch wichtig ist | has been · I've played · I've always had |
Aussprache, auf die du achten solltest
Der Sprecher verwendet 99 Kurzformen und abgeschwächte Formen, zum Beispiel didn't, I'm, don't. Sprich sie in der kurzen Form, so wie du sie hörst.
- Die Laute „sh“ und „zh“: emotion /ɪˈməʊ.ʃən/, ambitious /æmˈbɪʃ.əs/, juxtaposition /ˌd͡ʒʌk.stə.pəˈzɪʃ.ən/, casually /ˈkæʒuəli/, audition /ɑˈdɪʃən/
- Lange Wörter – auf die Betonung achten: collaborator /kəˈlæbəɹeɪtɚ/, intimidate /ɪnˈtɪmɪdeɪt/, juxtaposition /ˌd͡ʒʌk.stə.pəˈzɪʃ.ən/, objectively /əbˈd͡ʒɛktɪvli/, paparazzo /ˌpɑ.pəˈɹɑt.soʊ/
Laute, die Deutschsprachigen schwerfallen:
- /w/ — mit runden Lippen, nicht wie das deutsche „w“ (/v/): whoa /woʊ/, choir /kwaɪɚ/
- Stimmhafter Auslaut — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ am Wortende nicht verhärten: earbud /ˈiɹ.bʌd/, thrive /θɹajv/, blond /blɑnd/, chord /kɔɹd/, perceive /pɚˈsiv/
- /æ/ — offener als „ä“: ambitious /æmˈbɪʃ.əs/, collaborator /kəˈlæbəɹeɪtɚ/, impactful /ˈɪmpæktfəl/, casually /ˈkæʒuəli/, embarrassed /ɪmˈbæɹ.əst/
So übst du mit diesem Video
- Höre dir das ganze Video einmal an, ohne zu sprechen, und notiere die Wörter, die du nicht kennst.
- Beginne mit 0,75-facher Geschwindigkeit, sprich Satz für Satz nach und wechsle zur normalen Geschwindigkeit, sobald es leichtfällt.
- Nimm dich auf und vergleiche mit dem Original; achte dabei auf Wörter wie whoa, injure, terrify.
Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
