i love how their dad basically refuses to be a nepotism dad. you can tell they love their parents with everything in them. they raised two beautiful and amazing kids!! it is so cute how their parents go on tour with them and pretty much everywhere with them. they are so family oriented, it is great to see that
Yea that's rare for an artist to have the family on tour and a brother to create with
What is nepotism mean? I kept hearing that word these days
Nepotism means the practice among those with power or influence of favouring relatives, friends, or associates, especially by giving them jobs.
@@mohdamerulaidilbinrazisahm7317
@@mohdamerulaidilbinrazisahm7317 it means several things.. for example in the field of Hollywood and music industry becoming famous thanks to someone in your family who is famous… same thing happened with Lana del rey's father who released music this year (just for fun) and it's became famous because he is Lana's father, and they normally use it to indicate parents who are already famous in the sector and who, thanks to their name, their children become famous and make a career in that sector more easily than others, the same thing happens in normal life... children who receive their parents' business as an inheritance... they are nepo babies. in this case even if Billie's parents were EXTRA actors, both were unfortunately two failed actors and risked losing their house because they had no money, the father thus became a builder and the mother an acting teacher with children Etc.. always very humble not rich people … certainly living in LA as Billie said they had less problems and it was easier singing in clubs and then signing with a label bc they live there so they knew how to move .. but without a success first they won't let you sign and they both worked a lot starting from the bottom in 2015-2016 singing in schools, parties, churches, small clubs (where people didn't even listen to her etc) to reach the top in 2019 globally... and since her parents weren't famous or important, now they are thanks to their children so they are nepo parents... famous thanks to their children and Patrick doesn't want to be famous or whatever 😅they are very humble down to earth family. the parents support themselves with the salary of a technician (father) and (her mother) assistant, they don’t want to earn more than other colleagues. and they are always dressed the same and with clothes bought from charities and things already used ..same Billie 😅
basically born into fame
It’s crazy how much a hairstyle can change the way you look. Billie looks closer to how she did in the 2019 interview facially than the 2021 interview. And I think it’s the hair
her hair also looks so much healthier it’s so shiny
realll
It's The baaangs
@@LeilaBucan-mu9vlfr omg
its clearly and obviusly the bangs
Even as an old guy who’s an indie boy at heart, these two just melt my heart. Talented and chilled potato farmers.
Fruit.
Does her brother sing with her? What’s the deal with him?
Cute.
@@HH-gv8mxyes he does he also helps write the songs
@@HH-gv8mxhe help produce her songs, but he is also a solo artist. You should check out his music, I love his song “Love is pain”. Very sad, though…
I love how billie and finneas work together and be together not because they have to but because they actually WANT to. it’s rare to see siblings like each other this much.. props to their parents
they do give strong Lannister vibes.
Without one another they wouldn't have become as talented or famous. The whole family, respectful.
And his gf kind of looks like Billie lol
@@tlo11738 nahhh, how😂
That's a single sibling thing. I only have 1 brother, we fight argue and disagree about everything. But I got his back all day, everyday. Same goes for him.
I saw Billie in 2019 and her dad was, in fact, sweeping the stage
yes, he still does that
And he is already 65 .. hard worker!! 👏🏻Love this family they are so humble and down to earth 😊
Same here. He sweeps the stafe with a wide mop to make sure there are no damp spots or dust that could cause Billie to trip, as she is very dynamic on stage. She has literally sprained her ankle on stage during a show by landing akwardly as she jumps up and down.
this made ma actually lol
billie has come such a long way, she is GLOWINGG and im so proud of her
Of her being a jerk and toxic?
@@DaveMcIroy BYE THIS IS SO EMBARRASSING PLEASE AAAAHAHAHA
@@michaelmorales9496, are you having a stroke?
@@DaveMcIroywdym being toxic lmao what did she do💀
@@cass4084, English?
“bad guy” is one of billie’s best songs. the fact that she admits it is a stupid (goofy) song yet in the same breath says it is good shows her confidence has gone up over the years which is awesome. she has grown and matured so much over the years. her and finneas are a force to be reckoned with within the music industry. they are unstoppable, i’m so ready for the third album!!
she said bad guy was stupid (meaning silly) and has said in other interviews that they made it as a joke and it shouldn’t be taken seriously
Troll.
That’s a terrible song.
Its her worst
@@DeBlauweOlifanther worst song is her second most viewed with 1.2 billion views? ha
OMG Finneas is SOOOOO talented. If you haven't heard his music, I suggest you listen to it immediately!
Yeah he calls it all Billie Eilish for some reason 😂
Is he a singer? Or does he write the lyrics for his sister? What does he do?
@@HH-gv8mxhe has his solo music which he writes, produces and sings, he also produces and writes for other artists. For billie he produces her tracks amd they cowrite everything. At shows he plays instruments and sings harmonies
He writes the music, what do you mean? She thinks shes Kurt Cobain, she's Celine Dion, nothing (wrong with that)@@HH-gv8mx
He’s really funny too
I've never seen an interview with either of them, and I was impressed how grounded and well spoken they are. High class, both of them.
except for the gum. I've never seen someone give an interview while chewing gum.
@@donnywilliamson5807 that means she was sooo comfortable and that’s why this interview was this good ❤️🔥
"Well spoken"? Seriously? Count the number of "LIKES" these two used "Like" several times in each sentence!! "Well Spoken"? Yeah, if you have a 4th grade education I guess their diction would be impressive.
@@dewz440 u have 3 comments on this channel and all of them are about “LIKE” , do u have anything more to say about them ? or are u this tired from life ?
@@dewz440…… the use of the term “well spoken” as it was used didn’t mean grammatically correct, but meant they they are fantastic on all their interviews at expressing themselves and getting their point across ….. (similarly with Muhammed Ali, may he RIP) 😉✌🏽
I love their dynamic sooooo much! I love seeing siblings support each other. The way they let each other have their own moments but also share their wins together is so iconic, admirable, inspiring... I don't even know how to put into words how impressed I am by them...
family values have consequences
@@vp4744 everything in life has consequences... it depends on how you look at life I suppose.
@@mariahezra No, I was referring to them as the good side of family values when the political debate is always about the bad side.
Love their family. My daughter and I had the pleasure of joining in with 20,000 other people to sing happy birthday to her mom at their show in San Francisco. Her mom said that as kids, the rule was "you can stay up as late as you want, as long as you're making music." So cool.
Their parenting style is really incredible, they should write a book. If I ever have children I'd like to make a similar rule with them. You can tell Billie and Finneas love their parents so much because they were given so much freedom to be creative people, instead of being pushed to do regular school subjects that they didn't have passion for.
I have a similar rule. My kids can stay up as long as what they are doing is teaching them something. This is how my son was coding by the time he was 7. Kids will get sleepy but if you interrupt them in the middle of something creative or intense learning then you stop that process never knowing if they will find that exact moment of growth again.
Nice to hear young musicians as massively popular as them, who are also so sincere and intelligent.
Intelligent? What gives you that impression?
@@ericjohnston591I am confusedddd
Iv'e never heard anyone that's "intelligent" use the word "like" 3 to 4 times in every sentence.
@@dewz440Then you haven't studied descriptive linguistics. "Like" is no different from "um", "uh", etc., all of which are common and speak more to rehearsal (i.e. falseness) than intelligence.
@@dewz440must not Interact with humans outside of your house that often then.
I love how people say that they accept someone’s disability, but as soon as someone with Tourette’s syndrome chews gum to help distract them, people call them rude. Practice what you preach.
And no clue about PTSD or autism😮
You DO KNOW we're commenting on a three way conversation with Finneas, Billie, Jimmy, right? I heard NOTHING referencing DISABILITIES.
Drink your Kool-Aid people.
@@waynesanchez6504 Huh? I’m referring to all of the rude comments in the comment section.
@@janncoons7445this one! ❤
These guys are great musicians and lovely people who love their parents. Awesome human beings.
These two are nothing without the other and that's what I love about them. They are equally important if it comes to Billie's succes. So much talent combined and let's be honest it's great to have siblings like this.
They remind me of the Carpenters
Oh, I hope they have a much better ending@@user-qf7ud5de9h
their parents really did a GREAT JOB.
I love Billie and her family. They are really sweet and down to earth. Fame doesn't get to their head.
Like the Carpenters
True
"Don't you have like every cousin, son, partner working on the show?" That was a really good line by Finneas.
And how smoothly he said that.
The "you would totally know" at 12:12 really lit up something in my soul, thanks for being so quick Billie!😂❤🙏🏻
There kinds of comments deserve comebacks like this lol
😂 Since when did you have to be a woman to know how pregnancy works? WAIT… maybe IM a woman bc I also know 😦
On a serious note, I’m sorry somebody hurt you :(
Or she was just telling Jimmy that he would totally know how the creative process can happen like that
She’s been famous so long, and everything she touches turns to gold. Yet she remains humble and relatable. Love these two. Extremely jealous. It’s in her DNA, the girl only knows how to write hits
billie is absolutely breathtaking. her beauty is unmatched. i hope she is happy. she deserves to be and so does her wonderful brother!!!
@@listenupfoolio-mx8mewhy do you think that?
wtf are you talking about? She's literally one of the most beautiful people ever.@@listenupfoolio-mx8me
Troll.
How many comments you gonna leave on this video?
@@ericjohnston591why are you replying everywhere 😔😔
Two very talented and level headed people with no egos and love their family! Totally refreshing.
The fact that the flower cushion is still there after all these years 🥺🥺🥺
billie and finneas write the most beautiful music together, truly like music chemistry at its finest 🖤❤
Her James Bond theme song is AMAZING! It was neat to hear that she prefers that type of song writing.
I hope they win another academy award for this one.
I absolutely love that song too!
patrick is the kindest soul ever, he’s honestly so so sweet
Billie’s statement on sibling arguments is SOOO true😅😂. My sisters and I are are closer in age than Billie and Finneas and it isn’t until we see people react to us that we realize how mean it sounds😂.
My twin & I are terribly mean to eachother 😂
But like we know it’s all love!
New people get a bit taken aback.
I really love their family dynamics. Every time u see these siblings together or the whole family, or they talking about each other, you can really feel how they care and that’s the base for Billie and FINNEAS to be such good artists as well as people, because they have a great family to back them up.
They were raised so well and it shows. Her parents have said that they used to say "you can stay up as late as you want as long as you're creating something". I think that's an incredible system to have.
So cool to hear Billie and Finneas share their process. Such a beautiful song.
BRO I AM SO IN LOVE WITH HER. SHE LOOKS STUNNING
Their dad sounds cool and hardworking
Man, Jimmy is just a rock solid interviewer. Is he always this on point? I might need to catch more of him - you can tell he really put the work in, and is incredibly calm and collected, putting everyone at ease.
I adore both of them! So psyched to learn that FINNEAS sings too. What gifts they are. And thank you, Jimmy, for letting them share the process and sharing your genuine excitement for them. ❤❤❤
still bringing their parents on tour cause they like them is so wholeome and respectable cause I would honestly NEVER do that
They are homeschooled, plus their parents are pretty old and were against shouting at their children, there was always respect and trust and they taught values in a different way, which is why for them their parents are their best friends🥰
As a musician, songwriter, performer and producer myself, I really love how much insight those two give the outside world into their way of living and creative processes. But great talent, open mindedness and extraordinary creativity do not explain their huge success alone. I sense a mysterious inside world that the two don‘t really let you have a look at.
Billie always sitting comfortably 😂
I love her
I love getting to see the behind the scenes. Her voice is so ethereal. Reminds me of this one Japanese singer Aoi Teshima, who did a song for Ghibli. Their voices together would be heaven 🖤
these siblings are so in tune- synchronized sitting
Yes I was thinking the same. Perhaps the magazines will have a pic of that in their IG posts.
They are homeschooled , always together like twins
So amazing!! I didnt know what to expect but am so pleasantly surprised!! Lots of respect for the refreshing honesty and maturity!
Wow the tingles that went down my spine when she’s sang parts of the song that hadn’t been finished yet.. especially when she sang “made for”
Those two are so special. I love how real they are.
This is so awesome.
"Bad Guy" is just a classic of theirs. I get it what Billie is saying. It's that she is evolving and she understands that sometimes the old stuff makes her uncomfortable but she acknowledges it then appreciates it fully!
I am usually not into music with lyrics, but they really did struck a chord for me. Probably a sixth of those 600,000,000 listens came from me for this song.
Cute! Billie Eilish is such a cute, heartwarming person. I love they both got the chance to work with someone they love and can share their passion with their family! It's very lucky and they're taking it!
Can’t wait for the new album!!!!!!
The song is so achingly beautiful. I don't know how many times I listened to it before I could not cry every time. I really hope they get an academy award for it
She looks so happy! 🙌❤️ what a beautiful family
These two are setting the bar for my parenting goals of my son and daughter
Wow Billie and Finneas are so so incredible duo❤️🏆✨
I'm so glad she wrote what was I made for that sing is amzing and try also explain how I feel.i love how billie always seems to make relstubek music no matter what
Sweet to hear how much Billie totally likes and loves her mom. And seeks and finds her support. Sounds like a great mom. 💞🩷
Them sitting exactly alike is so cute. Siblings 😊
They seem like such down to earth kind people. So happy for both their success. Such talented young people ❤
it sounded soo beautiful when they played the recording of their process😌😌
So neat to see a little of their process, it gave me chills 🙌
Is anyone else completely blown away by the original key that "what I was made for" was written in? It's unbelievable, I have chills.
Original as opposed to what's on the record?
@@LichenAndMoss yes the version they showed here is a different key signature than appeared in the movie.
@@rosiedolciamoreI think the record version is in c major, right? I could be wrong but that demo or whatever riffing they were doing there had some sharps in there. Likely d major. Lowered two half steps.
Classic I-iii-IV
Billie seems genuinely happy it’s sweet to see
Its so crazy howtalented thesetwo are!I could cry watching them, always!
I love her so much and Finneas so rare to find and have two siblings help each other and grow as an artist.
I love these two creatives. Wow they’re inspirational and so humble. I can’t get enough of their work it’s my favorite
They're so talented. Loved this interview
Finneas is so unaffected by fame. He knows his skills surpass everything. I love also that he is so comfortable to let Billie be front and centre. He knows that he has the respect of the industry and I think that’s more important to him.
I’ve learned about of so many great musical artists watching Jimmy. Finneas is now on my Spotify. Thanks Jimmy!

Recap by Tammy AI
No one asked.
its Billie btww
also its finneas
finneas*
howd u spell BOTH of their names wrong
First time I'm hearing from Finneas. Seems like a cool guy.
Billie looks fabulous! I love how real she is with her style and chewing her gum lol love her
It's very important for fans to grow with an artist and appreciate their work over time. That means more than trying to chase hits and what's current.
that is so sweet how her dad literally works on set with them and wants to be apart of their success 🥺
I love watching them grow up. Great artists for sure
how i love them both... and the little studio video was so cute dude litterally i wanted to be there with them while they are making music.
I miss their interviews. 2 of my favorite people.
love their music, convo, fit and the converse🤌
What an amazing interview. Loved everything in it.
Their BEST interview YET!! Kimmel actually ASKED the questions no one else considered, got the honest and revealing responses.
I love how they treat their music like it’s art.
I love the Chuck's. As a songwriter you should both love and be critical of your own songs, just make sure people hear them and you don't get endlessly stuck in your head. Billie Irish ☘
@@vp4744Chuck Taylor’s are converse shoes
@@vp4744A line of shoes. Chuck Taylor Converse.
Their family has such an incredible work ethic and a dedication to what they believe in. They are what a family should be. Supportive and loving.
…and Finneas, I get it. You’re the older brother who paved the way and supported your younger sibling. But sometimes the younger one gets all the attention. But I think the true Billie Eilish fans absolutely know that you are a team.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM!! What a cool lovely family!
She’s grown up so much and she seems so much more clear minded and so much more well spoken than as a kid in past interviews. Crazy!
My love for them is bigger every day
Billie is very happy and that's great ❤
The way she wanna clear what she said it’s hilarious 🤣 ❤❤
I’ll never get enough of Billie and finneas
I love your work Billie ❤
A trashy day is always a good inspiration for creativity
They say they wrote that song in 2 hours. Don't be fooled. It took only 2 hours because they create music and songs and lyrics 6 hours a day, every day, since age 6 or so. On top of that, they have real genius level talent.
Ok
Plus their mom is an actress and dad a musician
@@Lav640no 🤦🏻♀️ they were both 2 failed extra actors, not actors .. but extra .. they also risked to lose their house .. both knew as to play instruments and their mother as to write a song. Her mother was their “teacher” . But Finneas learned to produce thanks to internet
And? 😂 this is normal if you are an artist it’s their job every artist does that
@@hoy68290 No, not "every artist." Also, being an artist is not a job.
Their bond and dynamic is so genuine.
Ah, "dynamic". Wonder where you heard that word. Could it from be the pop singer who you adore? Surprised you didn't throw in a "literally" to try and appear a smart millennial (a contradiction in terms).
@@ericjohnston591Do you have a personal reason for hating her, or just because?
I cracked up when Jimmy mentioned Donny and Marie! I'm old enough to remember when they had their own TV show. Billie and Finneas are a wonderfully talented sister - brother team!
folks, this is what every really talented rich person should be. Down to earth, simple and friendly.
I'm loving Billie's hair, the red is soo awesome!!
wow...this is a good example of questions for a job interview. Love you Jimmy
Shes obviously body changing. Her face is cut man. Straight up weight loss and healthy.
I can go thru my pictures and seen the weight flux all my life how i changed some of my best pixs after 50. But billie Shes freaking beautiful. Inside and out..
Young er older... shes gonna be fenominal all her life no matter wtf she looks like. She can sing. And write. Im a lifer for her songs. All if them. 🎉❤
I love what she said about loving her own music, you should love what you do in every aspect of it
Shes so beautiful inside and out!! And her brother is a Genius ❤❤
One of the most beautiful songs you will ever hear. I simply can’t listen to it and not shed a tear. It is perfect.
These two musicians are the Lennon and McCartney of this generation. No question of that in my mind.
This song will be a classic after many ages or generations leave it to the roadio stations and as a song with staying powers to be replayed again and again.
I keep forgetting how young she is. She’s accomplished so much already.
I can't listen to that song without crying. Get's me every time.
For folks who aren't stagehands, "carps" aren't just actual carpenters. They're basically laborers. Basically, anything that isn't rigging, audio or lighting is handled by the carps. They do a lot.
They are so amazing and adorable I love them so much
Wow. She has become a beautiful lady! Idk why but I enjoy their music.
