I don't think anybody is giving her brother enough praise. Do you guys hear those lyrics. How much love he has for her based on the second song, it's so ridiculously precious.
The real unsung hero here is the production intern who had to run to kinko's and print off high def images of the NPR tiny desk and assemble it perfectly to fool us all.
It's called "Unplugged" , And these are the only Bro & Sister since the Carpenters who can do it ,,,,, Is it me or are we seeing a young lady now , wow , she really has so matured ..I still think it'll be Pops big love affair between a young ladys idol within two years ,,, they'd make a great couple too ...
Their acoustic concert at the Steve Jobs Theater for Apple is up here at UA-cam. It's about an hour with similar quality. Think of their songs as small operas.
i don't think people understand how insane her vocals are. she has so much control of her soft delicate voice which is very difficult. and no she dosent whisper. there is a big difference between delicately singing and whispering.
yes you get it. So much respect for her voice control. I tried singing it and found it nearly impossible to sing it exactly like her in terms of voice control and the delicate intonations
At 83 and still in love what Music is and can be, Billie Eilish is the absolute TOTAL PACKAGE. God Bless her for the joy she brings all of us. Thank you.
I see a lot of comments about how great Finn is and how underrated he is... he is amazing and he is recognized! He just won 5 Grammys for God’s sake! Very well-known producer!
Yes he is most definitely not under-rated. He will never be as famous as Billie unless people buy and stream his solo music. If you care about that sort of thing, that is what you should do. He probably couldn't care less - his life is great as it is & he is not burden with needing security guards in his private life. He has talked about how he dislikes being called "underrated". I personally find Billie charismatic and unusual, plus she has a velvet voice and she owns the stage. I find Finneas' solo music too adult contemporary.
@@thuanhdo9597 He was nominated for a bunch of solo VMAs. If you bothered to vote and organized a bunch of other fans to vote, maybe he would have won. He couldn't have won more solo Grammys as he didn't present any solo content to them for nomination. It doesn't just magically happen. 5 Grammys is far more than almost anyone could win in their dreams. He has a fantastic reputation in the industry and is not underrated at all. He is just not as famous as Billie and never will be unless he has solo hit records. That will happen if you buy them and encourage others to. If not, he won't. Period. There is a vast difference between "underrated" and "not a superstar".
That describes this so perfectly, dude I dont know what it is with it but when my person runs her fingers through my hair I get all tingly and cozy. Same vibes here
You do understand that her voice is still edited right? I’m not saying that as a negative thing because every single artist uses some sort of reverb on their voice.
my older brother just died and this song makes me cry because of the line" if I could change the way that you see yourself you wouldn't wonder why your here they don't deserve you." it reminds me of the time I was a self concious teenager and my brother in the most non creepy way said I was beautiful and special and it helped me throughout my teens . its absolutely heartbreaking to lose your brother who is older and cool and artistic and loves you and has a sensitive heart...he was what I used to call the last nice person in our family.. RIP JRW
My dad is 66, 40 years in the music industry and still pulling underground gems everyday going on Sound Cloud. Biggest fan of music I know. Age have sweet-f**-all to do with any of this.
73 and right with you re these gifts 🎁 from the universe 💞; don’t remember when I was saved by UA-cam, but I had it on every waking hour for 2 days just last week! 🤩🎶💖
What are you talking about? I genuinely do not see anything special about this chick. There were five girls like her in my high school talent show every year.
I literally don't care how mainstream Billie is, her voice is still so unique. It holds such a lovely, special quality that sounds like a dream about falling in love.
The key is not to allow others to influence what you do and do not like, regardless of whether something is popular/mainstream or not. It's so weird that there are people who hate things purely because they are popular.
Yeah I cried on "Everything i wanted" bc it was like I heard it like they were in the same room as me, and It just got me in a speciel place in my heart💙
U87 one of the most famous mics in vocal history, plus they’re at home so they have all their studio gear, via racks, plugins etc. You’re getting the same signal chain they use on the albums. She still would have killed it on any mic at NPR
Tbh I never thought Billie Eilish was that special. She never stuck out to me as an artist or individual. But seeing this changed my mind. She obviously has a lot of musical talent and beautiful voice. Consider me a new fan!
I feel as if she's been working on her voice during quarantine..her voice has always been beautiful but it sounds even better I just posted "My future" by Billie Eilish Cover i would appreciate if you could check it out 💕
7:30 I keep going back to that part, her smile and spark is such an epic reaction. Billie was getting into her feels and didn't come in on time, but finneas was also into it and just singing and playing away. I love this pair and how much they convey a love of music, and love of their own music.
I am alot older than Billie and Finneas, but I love their music and their close bond. Her voice is beautiful. You do not hear voices like hers. (now everyone is singing her music. I dislike like singers trying to imitate the sound of her voice). She is a beautiful young lady inside and out. I wish them continued success. :-)
It's more like an energy-drain for me, except Bad Guy, but that may have been because of the walk-signal used as a beat and the nasty truth about underage girls purposely attracting grown men.
oh girl don’t worry- search for all the concerts/songs they’ve done virtually!!! there’s a definitely quite a few where they’re both singing just like this one :)
I never knew “Everything I wanted” was about their relationship as brother and sister. I almost cried because it’s so beautiful. My sister is my best friend too & this hit me right in my soul.
@@justlips9180 about a year ago they did the Song Exploder podcast about Everything I Wanted. It’s SO good (& they talk about the original meaning of the song). REALLY worth a listen
Whoever is the sound engineer on NPR for Tiny Desk productions is a genius. Every tiny desk I hear sounds like the best performance from the respective artists
@@liligman ik..their the best and I'm happy they're still posting and their content is still perfect I just posted "My future" by Billie Eilish Cover i would appreciate if you could check it out 💕
I'm in my 50s and have not been into music other than stuff I grew up with. So, essentially, I haven't been interested in most music after 2000s......until Billie Eilish. The timber of her voice is amazing. Simply amazing.
I'm 58 and just started listening to her last year. I think she's truly amazing. She and her brother make such an extraordinary team. I'm fascinated by them. Such talent.
I was thinking the same thing! I was like "how it this from home?!", then she said that and I legit thought she was lying, until a camera angle showed the flatness of it... 😮 I've been fooled!
I was never a fan of hers. Didn’t understand why people liked her so much. I saw a TikTok video and questioned why she is so popular. Went to Reddit to find out why and someone said to listen to this. Now I’m crying..she is truly incredible
@@dananyiam4651 agree. I’ve learned both of these songs plus others of hers on piano and was just playing and singing today! She has definitely left an imprint on me
I genuinely hope Finneas is as good of a brother as I perceive him to be. He looks at his sister like she means the world to him, and I admire his songwriting, producing, and musical ability.
@@mizzury54 yes I am aware that he co-writes them, that is what I meant when I said I loved how involved he is. Also playing and singing during performances/giving her support.
her voice and intent is like sunbathing on a beach and closing your eyes but seeing colors through your eyelids. Its turquoise and bittersweet reds or warmth of comfort and understanding. Siren
The favorite part of this performance for me is the bark at 9:15. It just make it so homemade and special. Lovely to be able to hear this in my lifetime.
can we talk about how generous and amazing finneas is to billie: most of her songs were written with him, all recorded in his bedroom + all with him playing and singing backing
Sure he is generous, as is Billie giving of her talent so finneas can have the success he is having. But wrong - they co-write most of her songs, only a few have been his songs. You can check the credits. He said the songs are 50-50 when they co-write - music, arrangement, and lyrics.
I never get tired of hearing them talk about being each other’s best friends. I feel it’s so rare for siblings to be so close, and to also collaborate so beautifully the way these two do. I wish I’d had a sibling like that growing up
I love this talented duo. Billie Eilish is currently the best female singer in my opinion. I love her singing, the feeling, her quality, the softness just like heaven.
@@TheKitchenerLeslie the sheer amount of butthole control you would need would to even emulate the melodic range of these songs would be highly unlikely
Not to be a party pooper but that’s not what happened. Finneas came in a little too early lol she didn’t forget, she was taking a breath for the next phrase
It's hard for me to hear ppl say she's overrated. To me she's (together with Finneas) one of one. One of my favorite artists from ocean eyes and they still do no wrong 💙
Also with all the comments on how hee voice has improved na she had it right out of the gate. I remember hearing Ocean Eyes for the first time then seeing some live performances of it and I couldn't believe how hauntingly lovely this tween kids voice was. The control perfect pitch phrasing it was there from the beginning.
I think these are Billie’s best vocals to date. She always kills it live, but She Killed It here! Love her vocal control. Billie putting all the haters who say her voice is too quiet to rest. This shows her power and range, and her natural unaltered talent.
I had to stop and check for a second because as soon as I saw 69 I instantly disregarded the commenter as a troll. I am so glad you are a legitimate person! Rock on.
They should ship that cardboard cutout to all of the musicians homes for every tiny desk at home concert it feels more realistic that way even though there’s no audience interaction.
she is only of the most technically proficient singers of our age, her pitch is always like 1,000% accurate and she is such a treat to hear in a live stripped-down setting like this. No wonder she does so well with minimal vocal mixing!
@@paullazarro4295 And lizards like yurself skipping around like lost shadows in stinking moats sticking their slimy snouts up and trolling Billie every time she sings a song because the life of a lizard is nothing more.
There's something about Billie that touches me deeply. She brings so much emotion and depth. I am crying at the second song because I love my brother and feel the same way about our bond, it's so beautiful to see and hear. Pure love and pure talent
okay everything aside, her technical ability is unparalleled by most in the music industry. no filters or anything on her voice, and every note perfectly in tune. Most acoustic performances like this you can pick up a few notes out of tune, but not hers. Insane ability.
I'm 37, and glad that there still young people that believe in romanticism yet dressing like rebels. I like this acustic version more than the edited. Also because there are no people clapping and wooing at the end. That silence is precious.
whew that performance of Everything I Wanted was so emotional and just, wow. Words fail. It brought tears to my eyes even though I've heard it probably fifty times since it's come out
Does anyone else feel like crying, now? Her voice....alone, but then their vocals together just makes all the lyrics that much more happy/sad, but still happy because they sound just so sonically ethereal.

@nprmusic Can we get another Billie Tiny Desk concert?
Girl bring her back, she deserves a real tiny desk
Love you NPR
@@kennakmokobi7581I agree..actually at the npr desk
I don't think anybody is giving her brother enough praise. Do you guys hear those lyrics. How much love he has for her based on the second song, it's so ridiculously precious.
You probably missed the night Billie won five grammys. The same night he won six.
Finneas is quite respected in his own right.
The love they have for each other and how it comes out in their music is one of the reasons I so respect and feel inspired by them. It's beautiful.
He has a chicken head
They write the songs together.
As someone who has a horrible habit of singing along with EVERYTHING, Billie had me completely still and silent. Breathtaking.
i relate.
Saaaaame
Same!
Exactly
so true
The real unsung hero here is the production intern who had to run to kinko's and print off high def images of the NPR tiny desk and assemble it perfectly to fool us all.
YES he/she needs more recognition
@@alisha3649 lets not forget the neutral pronoun users! /They!
For real. I saw the "at home" title and saw the background and got hella confused. They did a great job recreating it
DEFINITELY, yes!
HAHAHAHAHA
here in 2024 asking for another tiny desk concert. we need this.
NEEEDDD.
❤️🩹
agree!
Completely agree
Yess
I want a whole album stripped down like this. It's so relaxing.
It's called "Unplugged" , And these are the only Bro & Sister since the Carpenters who can do it ,,,,, Is it me or are we seeing a young lady now , wow , she really has so matured ..I still think it'll be Pops big love affair between a young ladys idol within two years ,,, they'd make a great couple too ...
I need it in vinyl rigth now
And way more beautiful than the originals.
you can say that again ❤️
Hpppp
I'm impressed
1. by their talent
2. cause no one's commenting about how convincing that cardboard is
Had me fooled! I was looking for this comment l
Wut!? I was convinced!
Hahahhah I was fooled
quiero esa cartulina para mi casa
insaanee cardboard
7:32 when Billie misses her entrance, then smiles at her brother holding it together with his harmony. Definitely my favorite part.
Most underrated comment! I was so moved when I noticed. That single moment encapsulated the entire sentiment of the song so perfectly.
C D yes! I thought the same!
I wouldn't miss Billie's entrance for the world
I thought they were lip synching until this moment! Too perfect
Her voice is so captivating. I legit get lost
she was 19 here, i find it so difficult to believe. incredibly talented
She was actually still 18! Her birthday’s in December
Pure insanity
I didn’t know I needed a Billie Eilish live album until now
Their acoustic concert at the Steve Jobs Theater for Apple is up here at UA-cam. It's about an hour with similar quality. Think of their songs as small operas.
it’s also on apple music if you have that
👍🏽👋🏽✌🏽
Sam Greenlaw that’s amazing, thank you!
I need one too, but can't afford it.
“Everything will be okay one day.” That is something I never knew I needed to hear until she said it.
Real❤️
YEA PEACE AND LOVE HAPPY DAY DAY LIFE IS GOOD EHEHEHEHJEWHRWUIE ETYGjk
i don't think people understand how insane her vocals are. she has so much control of her soft delicate voice which is very difficult. and no she dosent whisper. there is a big difference between delicately singing and whispering.
*whisper
I wouldn’t say insane 😂 but they are good . Mike Patton has insane vocals
THIS

A fact you can’t deny...
You may know all the lyrics but you were too hypnotized to sing along
why is that sooo true
I'm actually singing along. Eeek.
Relatable
Frrrrrrr
Ha! Truth
Imagine giving birth to kids and they both end up creating the most beautiful harmonies for the world to hear. Insane.

Funny how people's views are so limited; in fact, Finn is on the top of more lists than her.
He shared 4 of 5 with his sister tho. And billie also has 5 grammys. Finn was legit underrated imo
He also produced Selena Gomez’s song

That describes this so perfectly, dude I dont know what it is with it but when my person runs her fingers through my hair I get all tingly and cozy. Same vibes here
YES
Actually best description of her singing voice
Her voice is such a precious gift. I love that she doesn’t NEED auto tune.
Correct she has actual talent and discipline and actual ideas to sing about. Amazing artist
She doesn’t tho!! 💓
auto tune needs herrr
You do understand that her voice is still edited right? I’m not saying that as a negative thing because every single artist uses some sort of reverb on their voice.
Cillian Davoren you understand she has no auto tune or voice correcting right?
it’s crazy how her emotions translate into her voice straight up
That's the part.
Her emotions always pull at my heartstrings.
However, you don't know her emotions
Ok😂
@@Atezian I was looking at her face, which speaks a thousand words. Why did you even say it?
The voice is timeless. You could play that opening song at any point in the past 100 years and people would love it.

rest in peace, your brother sounds like a truly amazing person and he will always be by your side 🙏🏻✨

Your loss was not in vain, my friend.

Facts
I agree completely it's just super calm and peaceful.
This is where Billie and FINEAS really shine. Small simple performances. Great songs and great musicians don't need much to show their brilliance.
Her voice is truly a gift. I just feel like I’m floating when she sings.
Darth Ruin dude this song is a self love anthem. Why is everyone constantly hating. She’s 18.
Gravity been real quiet since you posted this is all I’m saying... that is such a good description!!
Me too!!!
yeah it's insane
@Darth Ruin floating she said
They need to do this again. Each month. Every year. Every decade.
every day
How about every second?
They need to come back, boy has she grown lyrically and vocally! Magical maestros both.
Listen...i cannot hate on this young girls vocal ability. The riffs are crazy yet smooth.
What are you talking about? I genuinely do not see anything special about this chick. There were five girls like her in my high school talent show every year.
Jack Rosenthal i’m sorry but that is not correct
Yeah,the vocals are very soft and lilting.They just float and fly so easily
@@radhamuthurajini1965 listen to the whole thing!!!
But like are u dumb or do you have a problem to hate on her for having fun and doing her job🤷🏿♂️

Never heard a voice sound so intimate and close mic’d when they’re actually back off the mic. Great vocal quality.
probably also soundproofing cause they're at home, that make a big difference for the noise floor. Otherwise you can't push it this hard @@louis-fq7xn
yeah just having a listen to this, what mic is that??? wonder if theres more mics we can't see, if now that little mic is amazing...

"Cause it feels like yesterday was a year ago" epic
and become finneas sang it first she has to harmony so quick and it was SO good😭😭
Hope you see my name.
7:30 I keep going back to that part, her smile and spark is such an epic reaction. Billie was getting into her feels and didn't come in on time, but finneas was also into it and just singing and playing away. I love this pair and how much they convey a love of music, and love of their own music.
I am alot older than Billie and Finneas, but I love their music and their close bond. Her voice is beautiful. You do not hear voices like hers. (now everyone is singing her music.

It's more like an energy-drain for me, except Bad Guy, but that may have been because of the walk-signal used as a beat and the nasty truth about underage girls purposely attracting grown men.
Thats a really good way to put it. I never know the words to use to describe her voice. So beautiful and unique.
Except when she's going political, then its kinda sounds like a pawn's voice
The two of them together... just magic. So INCREDIBLY talented
Can we talk about the fact that the live sounds exactly the same if not better than the studio version🥺
Talent
Talent and she doesn't use auto tune . Even she uses but just a little bit
Thats how it should be
grains de sésames yes. Some only used autotune for “when I was older” but the effect is on purpose. Her voice is like an angel ❤️
The sound here goes through edition too, and some awesome edition tbh
Am I the only one devastated that this is only 10 minutes long? I want an hour of just listening to Finneas and Billie's angelic voices on loop!!
oh girl don’t worry- search for all the concerts/songs they’ve done virtually!!! there’s a definitely quite a few where they’re both singing just like this one :)

I just posted "My future" by Billie Eilish Cover i would appreciate if you could check it out 💕
@@liligman no, this is not npr's process. Npr is going for a more raw sound. This is heavily processed with clarity and much reverb
Trouzz
All their other concerts have a very similar sound sonically to this...but I guess to each their own
Finneas was in charge of the sound, you can read it in the description
I'm in my 50s and have not been into music other than stuff I grew up with. So, essentially, I haven't been interested in most music after 2000s......until Billie Eilish. The timber of her voice is amazing. Simply amazing.
58. I feel you. She is truly amazing. They both are!
I'm 58 and just started listening to her last year. I think she's truly amazing. She and her brother make such an extraordinary team. I'm fascinated by them. Such talent.
53 here. So true
Billie: "Cuz obviously this is a cardboard cut out"...
Me: "oh... really?!"
yeah I didn’t even notice until she said it
Not obvious lol.
could've fooled me had she not said that
Emily Le same
It fooled me as well!
My favorite moment is at 7:32 when she gets lost in the song and Finneas brings her back, I cant stop rewatching it :)
haaaa me too! so cute!
Yes...she got stuck in that emotion for a second.
Ha, just noticed it, that's so cool
Blew me away
YES! Thank God someone else saw that! It's so cute how her face goes so quickly from lost in it, to OH that's right, to nice save thanks Finneas
billie: "obviously, this is a cardboard cutout"
me: "wait what"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Same here!
Explains it all. I was like, “wait...they bring all the records and books?!” Lol
I was thinking the same thing! I was like "how it this from home?!", then she said that and I legit thought she was lying, until a camera angle showed the flatness of it...
😮 I've been fooled!
When she said that I thought, “she must mean ‘green screen’!” Impressive
lol same
I was never a fan of hers. Didn’t understand why people liked her so much. I saw a TikTok video and questioned why she is so popular. Went to Reddit to find out why and someone said to listen to this. Now I’m crying..she is truly incredible
We all need a taste to testify .... Good you had yours
@@dananyiam4651 agree. I’ve learned both of these songs plus others of hers on piano and was just playing and singing today! She has definitely left an imprint on me
love to see it ❤❤ hope you’re still a fan!!
I can’t handle this anymore, Billie and finneas are so talented it’s CRAZY.
You can't even critique them if you want to, like they're actually perfect at music
Julia Blu YES IKR like I don’t see any faults/really bad song.
@@ruun8179 straight up I almost want to see them make mistakes just so I know they're human and to feel better about myself haha jk but not really
My excitement is immeasurable and my day is made.
same!!
LOL
From the King himself
Hope you see my name.
I hope you're under 17 cus if not you're a giant man child
I genuinely hope Finneas is as good of a brother as I perceive him to be. He looks at his sister like she means the world to him, and I admire his songwriting, producing, and musical ability.
Finneas is the true genius behind Billie’s success . I’d love for him to do an entire solo album featuring a variety of artists.
@@erikamichels103 I mean there is a Solo EP of him. Definitely worth checking out
If you haven't, watch The World's A Little Blurry. Shows how good of a brother to her he is.
The only reason billie is anywhere is because of finneas
Finneas wrote Justin Bieber’s hit “Lonely”. Dudes got some song writing skills fo sho
Billie may just have the voice of an angel, expression not exaggerated
I also love seeing how involved Finneas is in Billie's career. I hope nothing ever happens to strain that relationship because it's pretty magical.
have you ever seen finneas' girlfriend?
@@vittorioschiavon2836 no, why?
Involved ? He's part of it. You do know he writes or co-writes all these songs , right ?
@@RavenWindrunner check her out. she is crazy identical to billie
@@mizzury54 yes I am aware that he co-writes them, that is what I meant when I said I loved how involved he is. Also playing and singing during performances/giving her support.
I feel that her voice glows the most when singing this song
fr. it’s soft and requires amazing control. it’s very “billie” like
yeah I feel like it's the truest to her and finneas's musical souls and her best yet. so excited to see what she comes out with after this
She sang two, which one?
the first one! I found it so obvious when I wrote the comment because it is the last one she released hehe
I'll be honest I put up a front for Billie but finally giving her a chance, wow she's so incredible and completely deserves the hype
Me too. Heard all the hype about her and sort of purposefully neglected it. First time given her a listen was this and I'm blown away
Many people do this, but once they stop it they usually get to like her!
her voice and intent is like sunbathing on a beach and closing your eyes but seeing colors through your eyelids. Its turquoise and bittersweet reds or warmth of comfort and understanding. Siren
Me and my sister can’t even hangout for five minutes without getting in a fight... these two impress me
guess im lucky.. i cant say that im like billie and finneas but my sister and i are good friends and we hang out together all the time
Cuz y’all females
Just wait until you are grown ups, me and my brother used to fight at all the time now he's like my best friend^^.
DUAAARRRRR!
ЧЕБОКСАРЫ
From "idontwannaybeyouanymore" to "i just wanna get to know myself"
😭♥️
❤️💗💓💖🥺 honestly tho! She is amazing!!
I felt that
This is fantastic
True dat
" As Long as I'm here no one can hurt you" - That line hits my soul every time without fail
Yes
The favorite part of this performance for me is the bark at 9:15. It just make it so homemade and special. Lovely to be able to hear this in my lifetime.
Haha! I didn‘t Herr it at first!
She is mesmerizing. Her voice is soft velvet, and live sounds better than in the recording. That’s where you know you’ve found a great artist.
Irony?, her voice sounds recorded, like.. playback(?). His doesn't
I found it disappointing, but nice song anyways
@@jaimecaballer1625 that's not playback. Listen to the studio version and you'll notice
Same here. It's much better live.
The way her voice has grown literally has me crying, sis really said auto tune whats that-
Me too. So many emotions she is showing.
I wish I was 18 and thought “but aren’t I someone.” My absolute favorite line of ‘My Future’. I love how Billie is so tapped into her self-worth. 💚
Yessss!! EXTREMELY POWERFUL without a doubt 🌟
Her voice is like a cool breeze caressing your face on a warm summer night. .
can we talk about how generous and amazing finneas is to billie: most of her songs were written with him, all recorded in his bedroom + all with him playing and singing backing
Sure he is generous, as is Billie giving of her talent so finneas can have the success he is having. But wrong - they co-write most of her songs, only a few have been his songs. You can check the credits. He said the songs are 50-50 when they co-write - music, arrangement, and lyrics.
i think they just rly care about each other and just wanna see each other thrive!
Correction only few songs were written by Finneas alone but they co-write the others
@M 40 Vinneas
It's called marketing
I never get tired of hearing them talk about being each other’s best friends. I feel it’s so rare for siblings to be so close, and to also collaborate so beautifully the way these two do. I wish I’d had a sibling like that growing up
Such good friends Finneas got a girlfriend that looked just like her hahahhahahahhaha
@Jake Poundtown Just because they’re close don’t mean they’re banging omg grow up
@@3rdGenCamaroGirl awww it’s cute that you think he’s not into her
@@DreadedEnding we get it. your siblings hate you.
the moment she started singing “everything i wanted” i started crying
R/im14andthisisdeep
I cried from the start
same
I love this talented duo. Billie Eilish is currently the best female singer in my opinion. I love her singing, the feeling, her quality, the softness just like heaven.
their relationship as siblings is immaculate
Dude Finneas is the _MAN_
Yess so true!! I posted a cover of My Future if anyone wants to give it a listen! I’d really appreciate it!❤️
300th like 😌💅
Wait that guy is Billie's brother?
@@RachelSun-l3r yes he writes with and produces for her
her voice has matured so much recently and i’m here for it
she went from “idontwannabeyouanymore” to “I’m in love with my future”
Proud of her
@@Jose-ch2ms me too
@@Jose-ch2ms me too man
@@Jose-ch2ms me too
Yeeees😍😍😍
Sometimes about her voice just brings those tears of release. So beautiful in so many ways.
billie is so lucky to have her brother together in the industry

CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW IT LITERALLY SOUDNS BETTER THAN THE RECORDING WHAT THE HECK
My farts are more melodic.
John M. I-
Live music should be better it's not that weird, just good mixing etc
@@TheKitchenerLeslie the sheer amount of butthole control you would need would to even emulate the melodic range of these songs would be highly unlikely
So many Tiny Desk recordings are better than the album versions. I both love and hate that fact.
Can we just admire the fact that she was getting into her own music so much that she almost forgot to come in at 7:34?
I know. She was so happy that he caught it for her!
THAT MOMENT IS SO CUTE OMG.
I’m obsessed with how she sings that lyric “and it feels like yesterday was a year ago”, idk why 😂
That moment that she realized it and smiled at him picking up her slack was adorable 😍
Not to be a party pooper but that’s not what happened. Finneas came in a little too early lol she didn’t forget, she was taking a breath for the next phrase
It's hard for me to hear ppl say she's overrated. To me she's (together with Finneas) one of one. One of my favorite artists from ocean eyes and they still do no wrong 💙
Some people like the taste of macdonalds, doesn't say anything much about the art of cuisine.
She is amazing but yes, overrated by most
Also with all the comments on how hee voice has improved na she had it right out of the gate. I remember hearing Ocean Eyes for the first time then seeing some live performances of it and I couldn't believe how hauntingly lovely this tween kids voice was. The control perfect pitch phrasing it was there from the beginning.
@@DelvUrena a lot of pop music these days are pretty 'overrated' honestly
@@DelvUrenano she isn't, if you don't like an artist that's okay but saying they are overrated because they don't do your type of music is wrong
I think these are Billie’s best vocals to date. She always kills it live, but She Killed It here! Love her vocal control. Billie putting all the haters who say her voice is too quiet to rest. This shows her power and range, and her natural unaltered talent.
I mean, she still whispered the whole time
Kenan Gedik nope
Kenan Gedik lol 😂 have you even HEARD of No Time To Die? She belts it out after the 2 chorus!
Kenan Gedik BRUH U WANT HER TO YELLL
Little Llama he’s just saying that she’s whispering in this performance. not defaming her whole discography.
i could not hold back my tears during "everything i wanted."
Me, too, and I’m a dude.
@@Geblawi that's not awkward at all, man... it's ok... dudes can cry too as they're listening a moving song
Same 😢
@@Geblawi You're not alone my dude... Me too
Jacobo Rivas - You’re so kind; thank you.
I never understood why she was so popular until I listened to this, goosebumps her voice is silk
Same here
Yes indeed! SILK!!
Meh.
Still dont unfortunately. I guess maybe on my next listen
@@violakennedy9444 her vocals and art
Insanely talented and deep voice
I'm 69 and they make me cry. The only ones who ever moved me like this were The Beatles.
fun fact, she is a big fan of the Beatles and listed them as one of her influences, along with Green Day!
Nice
She sang “Yesterday” at the Oscars. Speechless! Beatles are my favorite band of all time and I teared up when I heard her.
@@annezimmermann53 she didn't know who Van Halen was, but won me over with this.
I had to stop and check for a second because as soon as I saw 69 I instantly disregarded the commenter as a troll. I am so glad you are a legitimate person! Rock on.
They should ship that cardboard cutout to all of the musicians homes for every tiny desk at home concert it feels more realistic that way even though there’s no audience interaction.
I legit didn't see it was a cardboard cutout until you pointed it out
she is only of the most technically proficient singers of our age, her pitch is always like 1,000% accurate and she is such a treat to hear in a live stripped-down setting like this. No wonder she does so well with minimal vocal mixing!
Yep she can whisper-mumble with the best of them.
Paul Lazarro I’m not too big on the whisper thing either
Paul Lazarro you must be bad at whispering if that’s how loud you think whispering is 🥴
@@paullazarro4295 And lizards like yurself skipping around like lost shadows in stinking moats sticking their slimy snouts up and trolling Billie every time she sings a song because the life of a lizard is nothing more.
@@paullazarro4295 its called a soft voice
There's something about Billie that touches me deeply. She brings so much emotion and depth. I am crying at the second song because I love my brother and feel the same way about our bond, it's so beautiful to see and hear. Pure love and pure talent
okay everything aside, her technical ability is unparalleled by most in the music industry. no filters or anything on her voice, and every note perfectly in tune. Most acoustic performances like this you can pick up a few notes out of tune, but not hers. Insane ability.
Totally agree! And it's cazy that there are still plenty of morons who say she can't sing! Are they that dumb or that hateful? Or both?
@@helenhunt5414 they are ✨clowns✨
@Helen Hunt they say she’s whispering, if she's whispering, she reinvented it? i could hear
her
Her and T-Pain man. Both did really revelatory Tiny Desk Concerts.
Even if there where some out of tune notes, it wouldn't be less for me.
I'm 37, and glad that there still young people that believe in romanticism yet dressing like rebels. I like this acustic version more than the edited. Also because there are no people clapping and wooing at the end. That silence is precious.
because shes at home, theres nobody there
@@superhappyfuntime2491 I know.
55 here ... LOVE HER!
Her voice has like 1920 or 30s nostalgic sound
OK boomer
Can we just take a moment to acknowledge all the work Finneas does !!!??? This guy is a Legend
he really is 😌 dude is so talented
He is acknowledged.
well, i, for one, wish he never existed.
@@bannor216 you okay?
@@bannor216 what now
whew that performance of Everything I Wanted was so emotional and just, wow. Words fail. It brought tears to my eyes even though I've heard it probably fifty times since it's come out
Does anyone else feel like crying, now? Her voice....alone, but then their vocals together just makes all the lyrics that much more happy/sad, but still happy because they sound just so sonically ethereal.
The only thing wrong with this tiny desk concert is that there are ONLY TWO songs!!!!! Argh! They’re friggin amazing😍
Ugh I wanted one more song sooo bad! But no doubt that everything was perfect! And those extra runs Billie put in there 👀
Not gonna lie I wanted one more too
There is a longer version of their performance out there
she went from "i wanna end me" to "i love my future"
That's so you see how bad you can be and how you can recover and feel good again :3
even when there is no hope, the sun will rise again.
Prayer works 🖤
We love to see it
She is an example
