LCM Song Of The Day: ‘Ocean Eyes’ - Billie Eilish
The wonderful and ethereal ‘Ocean Eyes’ is taken from Billie’s debut album ‘‘Don’t Smile At Me’ released in 2017. It’s also the debut song from then 14-year-old Billie Eilish. She posted the song on SoundCloud, where it organically went viral, generating over a million plays.
Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O'Connell, known professionally as Billie Eilish, is an American singer-songwriter. Born and raised in Highland Park, Los Angeles, she began singing at a young age.
With an appetite for the gliding, glassy indie-pop of artists like Aurora and Lana Del Rey and the Distorted Menace of Tyler the Creator and Earl Sweatshirt, Billie listens to music the way that most watch movies, entirely undefined by genre. This bleeds through into her own unique style of music, calling out lyrics with a mix of heartbreak and damaged indifference. Raised by two actor/musician parents, Billie grew up surrounded by Art. She began singing in the Los Angeles Children’s Chorus when she was 8 years old. Now at the "seasoned" age of 14, Billie has begun releasing her own original material, Produced and Co-written by her Older brother Finneas O’Connell (Of The Slightlys). With songs like “Fingers Crossed”, telling an apocalyptic tale of a virus outbreak and the Song “Ocean Eyes” calling out to a lost love, Billie’s voice and perspective roams far beyond her years in it’s emotion and power.
