Billie Eilish Inspiration

Billie Eilish says that her brother Finneas had a horrible dream that inspired her song, “Everything I Wanted.” In the dream he could see her watching everything that was happening after she had died. He saw a newspaper headline that read, “Problematic 16-year-old Billie Eilish has finally killed herself.” And he saw her friends being interviewed and saying that they never liked her anyway.

He told her about the dream when the siblings began working on the track near the end of Sept. 2018 when they started talking about needing another song for their next album. The story was revealed on her recent podcast.
