@@othilialarsson5237I’m pretty sure this part that you mentioned was about the time she wrote Everything I Wanted and not listen before I go. She was at the hotel when she woke up from that suicidal dream and wrote a song about it but Finneas wouldn’t help her finish more songs about suicidal thoughts until over a year later when they shifted the meaning of the song to their relationship. But from what I understand listen before I go came up before that.

It wasn’t though, it was popular before bad guy was, but bad guy just overshadowed it
The fact that all of this album was recorded in Finneas’ childhood bedroom is astounding.
I wrote an entire 5 page essay for an English class on "xanny" and its sister song "when the parties over" which borh follow the story line of her first boyfriend (rapper/actor 7:AMP) who dated her in 2018 when he was 21 and she was only 16. (This story was also continued in other songs like TV, Lost Cause, Your Power, Happier Than Ever) Xanny is the semi-fictional story of someone pressured into taking drugs witnessing an overdose. In the background of Xanny you can hear 2 girls frantically checking if someone is still breathing right after the first chorus. Billie hasn't stated about this being based on a real thing she saw but it dose foreshadow "not dying by mistake" later in the song. In Xanny she criticizes his friends and worries about her bf who lives in Silver Lake (the real area where 7:AMP lived) the chorus/vocal affect along with her sluring her words are both ment to be a audible cue to her/the narrator being high. The melancholy and stripped ending accurs after she sobers up right *when the party is over*. When the partys over is a straightforward song about both a literal and metaphorical party that she ended up accepting that she was emotionally taken advantage of by him, that she's gonna lose him (either emotionally or from OD like in xanny) and she's crying when she's coming home all alone (either she emotionally left him or he was too wasted to drive her home) There's alot more to say about both songs but that's the basic overview and context to some of billie's more personal songs.

Billie and Finneas are genius man! The fact that they put a sound of dentist's drill that Billie recorded, in "bury a friend" or that the sound in "Bad Guy," is actually a sound of traffic-light in Australia. Love them.
Let me just say that Billie produced the outro of "bad guy" by herself in her bedroom and that was the first part of the song that they had, so they started making this song after Billie made the last part of it.

As a Billie fan since ocean eyes, when this album came out it was so cathartic to me. I always thought Billie was going to be a superstar and to have a debut album like this was world-changing. “Listen Before I Go” and “Goodbye” feel like a moment in time that I can look back and see how different things are.
WE'RE GETTING ANOTHER BILLIE x TROY CRUMBS
im so glad i can never listen to this album for the first time again. set my mental health back 7 years fr
This album came out a little before my friend passed away. When I tell you to last three songs made me finally allow myself to absolutely break down and face reality. For that reason alone, Billie will have a special place in my heart

Her music is multidimensional. I can listen to it while I beg the sky to take me home, and I can listen to it on a random Tuesday while I’m in a great mood. The way she comprises everything is incredible
their lyrics are so interesting too because a lot of the rhymes are her asking questions, which is different than traditional rhymes in like pop music ig. finneas is the definition of a musical genius/master of production.

omg whaaat! will forever think of moriarty when i hear it now
ok but when you think about it, 8 is perfect for the themes of the album. you get so used to the dark sounds from the beginning that hearing more light and carefree instrumentation is jarring. when you're in a dark place, it's so hard to get out of it that anything that feels positive throws you off. it makes you wonder when the shoe is going to drop. darkness becomes comfortable if you've spent enough time in it, like how light hurts your eyes after enough time without it. 8 is a great representation of that feeling in my opinion

I really love your reaction to Listen Before I go....it's....I don't even know man. I am glad she wrote that song instead of really doing it. I remember my "so many years" of being suicidal and hoping that one day I would be brave enough to end my life but god, I'm here. Billie's music helped a lot when it comes to surviving.
one of my favourite albums and probably always will be. being a teenager when this released was perfect. the album encapsulates adolescence too well.
This album came out when I was high school during the absolute worst year of my life and my only hobby was to listen to it and cry all the time. It was fun to re-experience the album through you and to hear it again years later from a place of safety.
This album will always have a soft spot in my heart, I actually listened to this song when I was on my way to my Brother’s funeral. “Listen before I go” especially hit me really hard during that time. It’s been 4 years and I’m still not fully healed.
This album is incredibly well done, especially for how young she was at the time. The way it flows from one track to the next. I feel like you don’t see that too much anymore. I love the singles, but this is truly an album that is best fit to listen to from start to finish. It’s a heart wrenching story. Relatable content.
ANOTHER reaction? We are being fed again. GRACED. No but seriously, your reactions are the best. I’m psyched to enjoy.
Don't get me wrong : I looove Happier than ever but When we all fall asleep, where do we go ? just hit different Also in Wish you were gay, she doesn't says the number eight ("I ate alone at 7, you were six minutes away") and I feel like 8 is how she felt when she ate alone. Like a song in a song....

But listening to albums I love together with you and crying with you has been like healing. Music is something that's embedded in my soul and I just wanna thank you for helping me remind myself of that.
You caught me off guard with this one Troy! One of the greatest albums ever! Hands down!
You have to listen to her debut EP it's incredible
"wish you were gay" is hands down best song in the album AND best song of all time. Nothing can change my mind.
Reac to the music videos of xanny,you should see me in a crown,when the party’s over and bury a friend they’re amazing!
All these songs go even harder live, i have not recovered from the tour last year
this album was intended to be listened to before you fall asleep in the dark, with both headphones in, and at 25% volume,, with your eyes closed and mind empty.
Troy! I’m so glad you’re finally listening to this album! It’s incredible and Ik It’s a freaking sad album but it SLAPS and it still holds up in 2023.
“listen before i go, i love you, goodbye” UGHHHHHH OMGGG
8 is such a sad song though😭 I love how that one is the “break” from the other sad songs lol

BILLIE IS SO AMAZING I LOVE HER SO MUCH
this is her best album. i wish i could listen to this album for the first time again
THAT INTRO WAS HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD!!!!! EDITOR DESERVES A RAISE FR
Honestly if he ever listened to Rina Sawayama’s albums I would die. His energy is chefs kiss
Wonder if the strange addiction line "Bite my glass" refers to her actually biting a glass during a tic which she mentions in her bio pic
Apparently Xanny is supposed to be about the discomfort of being at a party with drugs you don't do/aren't comfortable with but don't want the social suicide of leaving and not understanding why they like them or why you don't and that's why it gets so discordant in the chorus to put the discomfort into sound
gotta appreciate the edit Troy! the humor is always ON POINT
