Billie Eilish’s new song “BIRDS OF A FEATHER.” Although Billie Eilish tends to favor darker tones, this track is wrapped in a refreshing melody.

That said, true to her style, the vocals keep the volume restrained throughout, so even singers who aren’t confident in their projection should have no trouble performing it.

There are basically no vocal embellishments, but a three-step melodic variation appears at the end of the chorus.

If that part is difficult, skip the embellishment and fade out following the original vocal line.
