This is great. She's really coming along as an artist. Give it 18 months and she'll be on FKA twigs' level of artsy lol

Hang on — don't get too crazy.

But yes, this is wonderful.

Except her label would never let her be that "artsy" aka non commercial in a million years.

Fabulous production. I'm loving it a lot and will love it more in headphones I'm sure!

Gorgeous wub.gif heart.gif I wasn't a big fan of the slower songs on the album, but this gets it right.

Anyone hearing a subtle ‘Euphoria’ by Loreen in the background? laugh.gif

At the risk of sounding approx 10000 years old, it took me so long to 'get' her. I was only really a fan of 'Ocean Eyes' and 'Bellyache' from her previous singles, but this has got me fully on board. Just a gorgeous song; melody, lyrics, vocals -- everything! Here for this smashing over the Winter period.

I'd still say 'when the party's over' and 'bury a friend' were pretty uncommercial songs tbh (maybe not so much 'bad guy' though). Definitely compared to everything else in the charts at least. But I wouldn't place most of FKA twigs' singles as being radically more out there than those songs.

I've just been reading up on the lyrics and what a moving, poignant song this is. One half is Billie's meditation of fame through the guise of a dream in which she's drowning and no-one cares to help, then the other half highlights an unbreakable sibling bond, a reminder of what is important in the quest for fame. It's a powerful song to hear from a 17-year-old - firstly, to hear their struggle with fame and their recount of committing suicide in a dream and, secondly, to hear them recognise the special bond between siblings, something I don't think most people truly value at such an age.

I think this could easily soon become my favourite from Billie out of the few tracks I have heard.

don't think so, the song credits are just Billie + her brother

I don't find the song as instant as everybody seems to, heard it 5 times and cannot recall how it goes, hope it grows

Can confirm this - I first heard this on Radio 1 on the First Look chart and I thought it sounded pretty good but hearing it again with headphones just now it's sounding 10 times better, really gorgeous and captivating song. heart.gif

I can definitely see this becoming one of my favourite songs from her with a few more listens (I think 'when the party's over' is still my favourite at the moment closely followed by 'you should see me in a crown' and 'WHEN I WAS OLDER').

This is great, up there with her best ("When The Party's Over", "Bury A Friend"). "Bad Guy" never massively did it on those levels for me.
