  • @nomadine85

    Goldwing is absolutely about the music industry but also generally about younger, innocent women in particular (she specified she doesn’t mean pure in terms of sexual activity but in terms of not being traumatised etc). So she’s talking about misogyny in general, but even more so in the context of the music industry. I also think the best line in the song is “buy you like a souvenir just to sell you in a year” which points strongly at the industry’s treatment especially of younger female artists that get moulded to a trend, then discarded.

    • @nomadine85
      @nomadine85 Před 2 lety +20

      I really love goldwing’s placement on the album personally, actually. To me it feel like it’s dialling up the religious theme to the max after having touched on it previously. And when one looks at the wording of the hymn, its content can be interpreted as just as sexual as oxytocin, except “contextualised” in a religious setting it’s suddenly associated with a different meaning. To me goldwing feels like such a perfectly placed song, especially since it also warps and transitions thematically into fame, placing on a pedestal, misogyny. It’s such an amazing crux of the themes of the album as a whole. There were already hints of fame related details in the previous songs, like needing to keep a relationship secret. But goldwing’s bridge really is just chef’s kiss to me. And when the beat drops ughhh so good. But it’s too short. I definitely needed more. Especially for a song from Billie the second half is a little bit too sparse lyrically. (As I write this I’m laughing because I’m the kind of person who sometimes accidentally swallows my own air, followed by a coughing fit, and can definitely not sing, but here I am with my proverbial monocle saying “this needed more” like wtf, shut up, self. 😂)

    This opinion will probably change over time, but at the moment, Everybody Dies is actually my favorite from the album. One of my biggest fears is dying young or dying alone or just dying in general and something about the song really resonated with me, like I almost related with the song but don’t exactly understand why at the same time. It doesn’t have the deepest lyrics or really say much new about the concept of death and the fact that everyone eventually dies, but I’m honestly okay with that, and I don’t think the song was trying to be incredibly deep or say something bold on the matter. I thought that Billie was just sharing her thoughts on death and, while they could be seen as surface-level or generic, I still appreciate her sharing her perspective on the concept. Adding on to that, the song sounds absolutely beautiful, with it featuring some of Billie’s best vocal work to date and the music moving perfectly along with her singing. Overall, while there are other tracks on Happier Than Ever that really stand out (GOLDWING, NDA, and Therefore I Am are pretty spectacular), Everybody Dies is still the best on the album in my eyes and is easily one of my new favorites from Billie

      long comment alert!
      when billie released the tracklist / song titles before the album came out, I was most looking forward to everybody dies because I anticipated that it would be a different outlook on previous songs like listen before I go & everything I wanted which are explicitly about suicidal ideation.
      I will admit that I was slightly underwhelmed with how the song came out but I still adore it and it makes me cry because so many of us have been on both ends: wanting to die so badly and then coming to terms somewhat with the idea of death but still being scared of it… etc.
      death is the most difficult concept for humans to grasp and accept, and it means the world to me to hear the thoughts of someone who dealt with suicidal thoughts during what most would call a high in their career.
      the bling and glamor of fame doesn’t take that away, and if anything it intensifies feelings of existential dread.
      idk if any of this makes sense, I just really appreciate that billie released a song about accepting the reality of death, in contrast to her previous work about causing your own death. heavy shit but she managed to lighten it a bit

    I did like the way how Overheated was vocally made. She sounded a bit like a machine, a robot. With the lyrics "can't be defeated, can't be deleated." it really sounds like she is undestroyable and talking like she don't give a fck, like a virus on a machine, like just being yourself and don't care what people say. Without any emotional undertone (well she has off course, but with those robot vocals I see it different.) I hope other people think the same.

    Everybody Dies was a standout for me. Her soaring vocal performance shines over the brooding, pulsing instrumental. The instrumental builds so nicely- adding in a low arpeggio under the second verse, with a faint snare ringing through.
    In the same way that the Halley’s Comet instrumental shimmers like the comet she references, the minimal Everybody Dies instrumental resolutely marches off into the abyss. But at the darkest point, light shines through as the synths drop away and Billie reassures me that I am not alone; I am not unknown. Personally I find a lot of comfort in those words

    this album is so fucking good and so fucking mental. you can hear the rock influences in songs like oxytocin and NDA, which to me sound very nine inch nails-esque. and also obviously on happier than ever, it sounds pop-punk inspired at times and then on the big drop it’s like a combination of every single genre that is present on the album and it becomes a beautiful mush of alt rock and it’s just incredible. a masterpiece of an album

  • @marks.8780

    I think that everybody dies is actually about how she always comforts herself with the thought, that everything eventually will end, when she feels like shit's too much for her at the moment. It makes sense as a theme to be after this interlude and song touching on her dealing with stuff that centainly got into her head, while being completely out of her control, as you explained overheated. But generally i agree, i also found this song pretty basic and uninteresting, judging just by what it is, but looking at the big picture, it fits into context. Just wish that she would have actually made it more this way, like positive nihilism and not a young teenage realizing that well... We all die xD idk maybe I'm projecting, but i feel like she somehow missed the actual point of this and what she actually meant lol
