Billie's Least Fav Song Of Hers Is An Early Career Classic
đ
Billie Eilishâs discography is packed with hits, Grammy awards, and even an Oscar. Amid all the accolades and streams, the âHappier Than Everâ singer admitted thereâs one song of her own thatâs not her favorite. Which song is it? Hereâs a hint: Itâs from Eilishâs debut EP, Donât Smile At Me, which dropped in August 2017.
Eilish revealed the song she considered her âworstâ in her annual Same Interview video for Vanity Fair. Each year, the star sits down with the publication to answer the same questions about her career and life. This time, Eilish switched it up a bit and answered a few questions sent in by fans via Instagram. This is where things got really interesting.
When asked what her âworstâ song is, Eilish quickly said itâs âWatch.â Welp!
âWatchâ was the third single off Donât Smile At Me, after âOcean Eyesâ and âBellyache.â The song was written and produced by her brother and longtime collaborator, Finneas. While Eilish may dislike the song, fans do. âWatchâ has been streamed over 425 million times on Spotify, and the music video has been viewed over 76 million times on YouTube.
Unfortunately, Eilish didnât explain why she dislikes âWatch.â Itâs one of her more personal songs, detailing what itâs like to leave a toxic relationship. âYour love feels so fake and my demands aren't high to make,â Eilish sings on the track. âIf I could get to sleep, I would have slept by now / Your lies will never keep, I think you need to blow 'em out.â
Eilish opened up about the meaning behind the song in a September 2017 interview with Vice. âIn a relationship, you're not just in a relationship with that person â you're in a relationship with that person being in a relationship with you,â she said.
Ultimately, Eilish may simply just not like the song anymore. The good news here is that she also told Vanity Fair she and Finneas have begun work on a new album. Hereâs hoping Eilishâs song she likes the most is yet to come.
