Arabella Harding (11) says, “I was a fan during Billie Eilish’s beginning when she was still growing her music on I cloud. I have always admired how she wrote her songs about experiences she went through. It was very influential because I got to follow her through all her tough times, and I get to see her now when she is going on tours all over the world.”
Billie Eilish’s music reflects her personal struggles and experiences, which resonate deeply with her fans. Her songs have themes of metal health, self-doubt, and the struggle of growing up the public eye. Her honest lyrics and insane vocals create a powerful and thrilling experience in a concert.

This is an event fans look forward to during her concert. Rimonda Faltas (10) says, “I love when Billie Eilish sings when the party’s over on tour because the song is really relatable and when she sings it on tour it’s really emotional, the way she loops her vocals.”
