Billie Eilish is almost an adjective. She delights in subverting every long-held expectation of the genre: hers is a far sharper, meaner incarnation, which effortlessly exceeds her maximalist counterparts. The best of her music — and believe me, the bar she sets herself is staggeringly high — shows the complexity of being not only a female musician, but a young woman, as prone to bouts of joy and despair, laughter and sincerity, as any other. An experiment in fear, she is the monster under your bed: a manifestation of the darkest corners of our subconscious. Eilish smudges vowels and crumbles consonants in her mouth, delighting in turning comfort into a crawlspace. She holds her listener by the collar from beginning to end, with her sleepy, serpentine hissings narrating our journey through a curdled dreamscape of textures.

Sorry, Justin. It works best in terms of its placement on the album as the final act in a three-part farewell that brings together disparate elements, sounds and moments from across the record. An early Eilish creation that was later added to the soundtrack of the first season of 13 Reasons Why , this tune is salvaged by the layer-upon-layer of vocal takes that come to a head towards the end. I tried so hard to not make it in any way offensive. The whole idea of the song is kind of a joke. An early indication of how fruitful their partnership would become. Hoping it makes the listener feel less alone.
