Songs of the year, number 10: Billie Eilish - you should see me in a crown



I'll admit it, I was slow to appreciate the genius of Billie Eilish. Perhaps because I didn't listen closely enough on the first listen of her debut album, when we all fall asleep, where do we all go? Or maybe it was because I knew it wasn't music written for me, so therefore there was a get out clause if I didn't get it.

Then, the second time I listened to the album, I must have been in a different, or more receptive, mood because I suddenly felt like I got it.

'All the good girls go to hell' is another favourite, but the sheer creepy swagger of 'you should see me in a crown' wins for me every time.
