Billie Eilish: “What Was I Made For?”, Barbie & Songwriting | Apple Music

Музыка

Interview recorded on Monday, July 10th in Los Angeles, CA
"Barbie" is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated movies of the year. At the end of last year, Finneas asked Billie Eilish to make a song for the movie after a conversation with Greta Gerwig and Mark Ronson. Now, the song, "What Was I Made For?" is ready to be released.
Billie Eilish and Zane Lowe sit down in the theater to discuss the making of her song, "What Was I Made For?", which was created specifically for the blockbuster of the summer, but is also somehow incredibly personal. Billie opens up about her experience being involved in the movie, her feelings about songwriting for film and TV, and the childhood connection to Barbie that makes this a "full circle" moment.

    Zane Lowe BLOWS me away with every interview. He has a talent to converse with people and draw things out in them that simply can't be taught. His questions are well researched but more importantly, they're inspired. You can tell he's REALLY listening and connecting with the person he's interviewing in a way that's so genuine and comfortable, that you don't even remember it's an interview. It takes so much vulnerability and WISEDOM on his end to be able to do what he does.

    This song hits so hard - she so perfectly describes feeling that constant existential dread that comes with depression, when you so frequently question life and what your purpose is - pairing it with a powerful video that captures the feeling of when you're little and try to play with Barbie a certain way but then things go wrong and you feel so out of control, and then tying that in to the message of the movie of the biggest struggle of life; trying to figure out who you are.

    They are so insanely talented. Like it’s one thing to create art without restrictions, writing about break ups, etc. But Greta showed them the movie and asked them to come up with a song - and they managed to create this?? Something that totally fits the specific Barbie plot WHILE also personal to Billie?? I am impressed by these people’s creativity and skills. The melody is so Billie and it works so beautifully well in the movie when played with the montage about moments in life. So touching. Now whenever I play this song I want to cry

    It baffles me that Billie is only 21, and she made a whole career for herself with her brother, but she’s not even 25 yet, and she can literally put a greatest hits out. She has so much time ahead of her, and can’t wait to see what will happen next in her career. She is just so naturally talented as her brother is, and it’s only been 5 years since her first album came out. That’s just crazy.

I suffer with terrible anxiety and have to take medication for it that when I heard this song it was like billie said everything I was feeling ( like Billie said it was exactly how she felt , it’d also how I feel ) dealing with stress and anxiety daily it’s like I forgot how to be happy and I don’t know how to deal with the anxiety of everyday life etc . This song is sung so beautifully it’s perfect and it was perfect for the barbie movie. This song really struck a chord deep for me and still to this day makes me emotional.

    It's interesting to hear her perspective on what barbie was to her as a girl. She says that as a kid she didn't really think about how barbie was setting a beauty standard she wasn't part of. But as a little Asian girl in America in the 80s I did. I often felt a vein of resentment towards barbie and all dolls at the store, blonde was always the main product line with variations being brunette, and I resented that. I enjoyed barbie dolls and the fashions and the hair, it was decadent, but I wasn't white and dolls reminded me of that daily, and I thought I might never be as pretty as barbie. I'm glad this movie came out to help round out for society everything that barbie has touched on through the years. She's a toy and a fashion icon and a role model and a cautionary tale all in one. 👱‍♀️

    Interesting, I never noticed that as much. I grew up in Russia and ot me Barbie signified a princess, nothing more. A celebration and a dream. And the fact that I didn't look like her didn't matter to me. I guess to each their own and each child internalized differently

    There are so many layers to this. Billie was injected into pop culture at such a young age that she has become an icon for us to look toward as somebody we adore, somebody we are inspired by, somebody we wonder "can we really be anything we want, just like what billie did, just by following her passions and making what she wanted to make?" and that's exactly how we should look at barbie. we can't try to be barbie, we can only try to be ourselves. follow your heart til it bleeds as amy lee sung in "end of the dream"

I wish I could go back to my 20s and 30s when I had dreams and possibilities. The fact that you feel everything is up in the air shows that you have many possibilities which is a good thing.

I'm not exaggerating when I say I have to listen to this song at least 10x a day since we saw the film on the first day released in the UK. If I'm concentrating on the song, rather than just listening to it whilst doing something else or singing along etc. it honestly brings me to tears every single time I concentrate on the words and the melody. It's truly a work of art.
