My best friend and I actually met at a psych ward. We got one song request during music therapy and both requested this exact song (listen before i go) without knowing what the other was writing. This was the start of our friendship 😅🥰
I think for me it would have to be "The 30th", because I've survived 2 attempts, and the line "you're alive you're alive you're alive" hits really hard. Thinking of getting it tattooed
Me too! I was going to comment and say something a little similarly to you but I saw your post first. I love that song so much I listened to it on repeat when it came out
Those strings at the end man. It’s like her voice is hooked onto my soul and lifting me up spiritually. 😂 yk the music is good when you start getting mad lol
I'm a guy and probably one of the older people here lol. What Was I Made For makes me wail every time that I hear it. I was at an Oscar party and knew that this was going to happen during the live performance. I looked away and pretended that I was having a coughing fit so that everyone at the party wouldn't notice me breaking down too much. They probably all thought that I had tuberculosis!
Turning 30 this year, and feel like I’m 15 fangirling over her. She is genuinely such an amazing human, and her & Finneas’s musical talents are impeccable. So glad to be alive in the same timeline as them and get to experience their talents.
it used to be “Come out and play” but now it’s “Birds of a feather” because it reminds me of my gf who i have such a deep and special love for and idk it just brings me happy tears
the ones that make me cry are i love you, listen before i go, and everything i wanted. from the new album wildflower and bittersuite. they're just so beautiful i can't-
My daughter is a huge fan but for me it’s Everything I Wanted, the part when she sings “as long as I’m here, no one can’t hurt you.” I know this sounds corny but as a father, this really hits home.
I always cry to Listen Before I Go. There was a TikTok a while back of a piano (music, maybe?) teacher who suggested she up the octave in the line “sorry can’t save me now…” (which she stitched) and I wish she would have went with that. But I still love it.
But most recent, I think The Greatest made me have a panic attack almost. In my current relationship this is how I feel…so I don’t know if I can even listen to it again, that’s how scared I am of it. I’m going to probably hysterically cry for a long time, every time I hear it. It’s too heartbreaking and too real.
Edit: to add one of my favorite, idontwannabeyouanymore
Everybody dies, Wildflower, i love you , honestly the entirety of HMHAS bec even if the individual song isn’t sad, idk if it’s just me but i cry from beautiful vocals. Her voice is just emotion provoking and she’s good at conveying deep emotions in her singing so it makes me cry no matter if it’s a happy or sad song.
It's not just the song itself, but the fact that I played it to help me process the fact that I had just been told my niece died that brings me to tears when "i love you" starts playing.
Billie also did a video message for a girl from my hometown during green tips era.(See Peace,Love, and Hope for Cambri on Facebook if you wanna see the video of our girl being an absolute angel🥺) The girl's name was Cambri and she battled Neuroblastoma until she passed away a couple years ago at age 14. She was a HUGE Billie fan. She never got to see Happier Than Ever's release, but I got a ticket to the new HMH&S tour, and I plan to take a picture of Cambri with me so she can be with us there too. The song that reminds me of her is "Ocean Eyes" because it was my song of choice when putting together a photo slideshow of her after she died.
Billie has been here with me through a lot. I have a terrible seat to the tour show, but I'm just so happy I get to be there this time🥰
When the party is over from the first album, getting older from the second, and skinny and the greatest from the third. And of course what was i made for and everything i wanted.
Lovely. That was the first song of hers that I ever heard. I was in the middle of an extreme depressive episode at the time and that song was the only thing that made me feel like someone understood how I felt
For me it’s The Greatest. You can physically FEEL her emotions and I always physically cry when she sings the bridge to that song.
I’m about to be a mess seeing her live.
PLEASE DONT TRY TO KISS ME ON THE SIDE WALK ON YOUR CIGARETTE BREAKKK I CANT AFFORD TO LOVE SOMEONEEE WHO ISNT DYING BY MISTAKEEE IN SILVER LAKEEE (xanny 😍)
halley's comet is probably my go to for beautiful type, ik this isn't her song but her cover of yesterday is absolutely gorgeous and I wish I didn't always gotta go to soundcloud for it lol
listen before i go is the most gut twistingly sad song ever to me. (especially because i was severely suicidal when i found it, and bil quite literally *sang* me down from the ledge) it is so comforting to ppl who have survived attempts or nearly did
I don't know about you guys, but I'd have to say "Everybody Dies" because I have a deep fear of losing my best friend and this song comforts me. Also when I listen to it, its like I'm singing it to my best friend. It's almost like me telling them that if I die I want you to live for me. It makes me almost cry every time!
mine's "birds of a feather". it sounds like a positive song, but it brings me to tears because i relate to it very much right now because of my relationship with a special person.
