List of songs recorded by Billie Eilish Songwriting history
Eilish during the Happier Than Ever, The World Tour (2022)
American singer-songwriter Billie Eilish has co-written almost every song in her discography with her brother, Finneas O'Connell , who produces most of them. In 2015, she uploaded three songs to SoundCloud : "Fingers Crossed", "She's Broken", and "Ocean Eyes ". Eilish wrote "Fingers Crossed" by herself, whereas "She's Broken" and "Ocean Eyes" were written by Finneas.[ 1] [ 2] Out of these three, "Ocean Eyes" became an instant hit;[ 3] [ 4] it led her to being signed to Darkroom and Interscope Records the following year.[ 5] In August 2017, Eilish released her debut EP Don't Smile at Me .[ 6] It was written by Eilish alongside Finneas,[ 7] and primarily includes electropop songs with influences of R&B and jazz .[ 8] [ 9] "&Burn " and "Lovely " were collaborations with Vince Staples and Khalid , respectively. Eilish's songs have also appeared on soundtracks —"Ocean Eyes" on Everything, Everything (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) (2017), "Bored " on 13 Reasons Why (A Netflix Original Series Soundtrack) (2017), and "Lovely" on 13 Reasons Why: Season 2 (Music from the Original TV Series) (2018).
Her debut studio album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? , was issued in March 2019, and featured the globally successful and her first Billboard Hot 100 number-one single "Bad Guy ", for which a remix with Justin Bieber was eventually released.[ 10] [ 11] [ 12] Further singles to aid the record included "You Should See Me in a Crown ", "When the Party's Over ", "Bury a Friend " and "Wish You Were Gay ". Musically, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? was described by critics as a pop ,[ 13] electropop,[ 14] avant-pop ,[ 15] and art pop effort.[ 13] Its songs explore themes such as modern youth, heartbreak, suicide , and mental health , with lyrical sensibilities of humor and horror; Eilish said the album was inspired by lucid dreaming and night terrors .[ 16] From late 2019 to early 2021, Eilish released several commercially successful singles—"Everything I Wanted ", "No Time to Die ", "My Future ", "Therefore I Am " and "Lo Vas a Olvidar "—with the latter being a collaboration with Rosalía for the television series Euphoria . Eilish released her second studio album, Happier Than Ever , on July 30, 2021.[ 17] On May 17, 2024, she released her third studio album, Hit Me Hard and Soft .
