I like Billie Eilish's music and think her brother is a decent producer, but you can't really compare the two in terms of song writing. I don't think there's a single Billie Eilish song that people are going to remember in five years, let alone after 50 years. I did enjoy this video about how they made bad guy:

But there are literally _thousands_ of videos of producers making songs on youtube now.
- paulryanrogers 3y agoIf the Beatles started at the same time as Eilish then do you think they'd be remembered 5 years later? 50 years?
- freejazz 3y agoHow could that make sense in the context of popular music post-the-beatles? would someone else have broke the boundaries they did?
- paulryanrogers 3y agoMy point is there was less competition and more space to innovate. At this point I suspect nostalgia and interia are the biggest factors in their lingering popularity.
- freejazz 3y agoThat's an anachronistic analysis. You want to say it was "easier" to innovate, sure. but to analyze the beatles without regard to their innovations is just prima facie wrong.
