Watch Billie Eilish Discuss The Making Of ‘Everything I Wanted’ In New Behind The Scenes Video
“[My brother and i] decided to make it about our relationship and how we help each other and like deal with things together,” Eilish says.
Billie Eilish has opened up about the making of her new song, ‘everything I wanted’ in a revealing new video. You can check it out below.
The ‘Bad Guy’ singer has shared the video, which marks a collaboration with Beats by Dr. Dre, on the day she launched her own ‘Beats Solo Pro headphones’ for the company. The new video gives a behind the scenes glimpse of Eilish making the song with her brother, Finneas. In the clip, the brother and sister duo can be seen recording the song in the studio and later sharing the song with their mother who cries after hearing it.
Speaking about the process of making the new song, Eilish says, “Finneas came up with, ‘As long as I’m here, no one can hurt you.’ We decided to make it about our relationship and how we help each other and like deal with things together. It just completely like paved the way for the rest of the song.”
Last month, Eilish opened up about how she feels “haunted” by the pressure of recording her second album.
The fast-rising star discussed recording the follow-up to When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? in a new interview with Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong for a special edition of Rolling Stone magazine.
“[My next album] haunts me,” said Eilish. “There was a period where I was like, ‘Do I even enjoy music?’ It just felt like so much touring. And I don’t mean the shows. The shows are always my favourite part.”
“But it was just traveling and being alone all the time, on a cold bus in Europe, horrible food, and when you come back, everyone’s kind of moved on from you”, she continued. “This last tour I went on was the first I’ve ever enjoyed. I feel like I have this amazing thing that now I actually see.”
