A Very Rare Glimpse Behind the Scenes of Birds of a Feather
Billie Eilish, the innovative artist known for her poignant narration and chilling melodies, surprised fans with a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the making of *Birds of a Feather*. On December 11, the Grammy-winning phenomenon posted a flashback video on Instagram, revealing an intimate glimpse into her songwriting process with brother and producer, Finneas O’Connell.
Writing the Chorus: A Family Affair
The video, captioned “February sixteenth 2023 lil video of the beginnings of Birds of a Feather,” takes followers again to the early levels of the track. In it, Eilish and Finneas can be viewed deep in discussion, honing the memorable chorus:
” Birds of a feather, we must stick together, I understand (‘Til the day that I die)…”
The chemistry between the pair is evident as they piece together what would later become one of the standout tracks from Eilish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft album, fueled with the aid of a shared inventive vision.
The Evolution of a Masterpiece
Finneas recalled in a recent interview with Variety regarding the song’s experience that the process was “excruciating.” The sibling duo wrestled over second-guessing and endless revisions over the course of eleven months, testifying to their relentless pursuit of perfection.
“I have so many recollections of listening to model five of the song, using round L.A. and thinking, ‘I’ve misplaced my touch,'” Finneas admitted. Despite the challenges, their perseverance paid off, producing a song that stands aside in their catalog.
A Feather in Their Cap
Birds of a Feather is part of Eilish’s critically acclaimed album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, released in May. The album has been soaring with success, earning three Grammy nominations for Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and Best Pop Solo Performance.
This ultra-modern peek in the back of the curtain showcases not only the enormous Genius but also the humanity of Eilish and Finneas, who always push innovative boundaries while staying grounded in their shared love for music.
