The 30th - Billie Eilish - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Billie Eilish took stock of a real-life event and reached for the guitar on this surprise 2022 track "The 30th," which was featured on her "Guitar Songs" single and marked her first new music since 2021’s Happier Than Ever. It's thought that the hushed acoustic song, which went to number 79 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, considers a car accident that took place on November 30th on 110 Freeway in the South Los Angeles area, which led to the hospitalisation of two people, including one of her friends. She imagines alternate scenarios and uses the song, which represents a reunion with her long-time creative partner and brother, FINNEAS, to zoom out on wider existential issues and emotional states like vulnerability and regret. Building with intensity into the head-rush of a bridge, Glastonbury's youngest solo headliner gushes "You're alive, you're alive, you're alive", as her voice and the song get louder.
