"My Future" (stylized in all lowercase) is a song by American singer Billie Eilish, released on July 30, 2020, by Darkroom and Interscope Records. The song was originally released as a standalone single, but was later included on Eilish's second studio album Happier Than Ever, set to be released on July 30, 2021.[1] Eilish co-wrote it with her brother Finneas O'Connell, who also handled the production. An uptempo lo-fi and R&B ballad with influences of soul and jazz, the song's lyrics address Eilish contemplating about her past and the effects it had on her outlook on life and the future, discussing how she is ready to put the past behind.

"My Future" was featured in 2020 year-end lists by Billboard, USA Today, and Slate. The song peaked at number six on the US Billboard Hot 100, giving Eilish her third top-10 hit in the United States. It reached the top five in Australia, Malaysia, New Zealand, and Singapore. An animated music video for "My Future" was directed by Australian director Andrew Onorato, and released on Eilish's official YouTube channel on July 30, 2020. The video depicts Eilish walking away from a relationship and thinking about her future, and was praised by music critics for its animation.

Background and release[edit]

On January 20, 2020, Eilish confirmed that she was recording a new album and revealed plans to release a documentary at some point in 2020, the latter of which started being filmed in July 2018.[2][3][4] On July 24, 2020, she took to her Instagram page to post a picture of herself standing on a balcony with the skyline of Los Angeles in the background, wearing a black face mask and a grey jogging suit. The post featured the caption "'my future' out thursday".[2] On July 27, Eilish promoted the track by sharing the cover art, which features a drawing of herself sitting under a tree while looking at the moon.[5] On July 29, Eilish shared a 20-second audio clip of "My Future" on Instagram, captioned with the word "tomorrow".[5][6] "My Future" was inspired by Eilish being alone in quarantine during the COVID-19 pandemic.[7] In an interview with Apple Music's Zane Lowe, Eilish states: "We wrote the song in like two days, this is the most we've ever worked in one period of time. But we record, we wrote it like a month into quarantine probably. And it was pouring rain. It was such a perfect setting. And then we recorded the vocal in Finneas' studio, which is just in his basement in his house".[8][9] Eilish added: "it was exactly where my head was at - hopeful, excited and a craaaazy amount of self-reflection and self-growth. But recently it has also taken on a lot of new meaning in the context of what's happening in the world now. I hope you can all find meaning in it for yourselves."[10] "My Future" was written by Eilish along with her brother Finneas O'Connell, while production was solely handled by the latter. The track was mastered by John Greenham and mixed by Rob Kinelski, both of whom also served as studio personnel.[11] It was released for digital download and streaming as a single on July 30, 2020, via Darkroom and Interscope Records.[12][13]

Composition and lyrical interpretation[edit]

Critical commentary described "My Future" as an uptempo lo-fi and R&B ballad with influences of soul and jazz.[14][15][16][17][18] It shows Eilish "moving beyond teen stardom to stand in satin alongside vocal stylists like Sabrina Claudio, Jorja Smith and Corinne Bailey Rae – skilled and serious artists as interested in the history of the chanteuse as they are in current trends."[14] The song starts off slow and gloomy, having a melancholic melody, and later changes into a confident and upbeat search for a bright future.[19] Coco Romack of MTV mentions the track beat "kicks up with a peppy, summery beat" and is supported by "cooing backup voices [by] [Finneas]" and that "My Future", "claps back at the notion that one must be validated by outside affection".[20][21] Noah Yoo of Pitchfork states "My Future" features "mellow electric" piano, drums and guitar.[22] Craig Jenkins of Vulture says the track "blends nostalgic Disney-soundtrack melodicism with soulful blue notes".[23] "My Future" has been compared to Eilish's cover of Bobby Hebb's "Sunny".[23]

Lyrically, it is about a powerful ode to self-love and personal power.[20][24] As the song starts off, it begins almost entirely a capella as Eilish decides to walk away from a relationship, putting herself and her future first. "Can't you hear me?/I'm not comin' home/Do you understand?/I've changed my plans/I'm in love with my future".[25] But by the time the song gets to a minute and 45 seconds, a percussive beat kicks in, speeding things up.[26] Afterwards she sings, "I know supposedly I'm lonely now (Lonely now)/Know I'm supposed to be unhappy without someone/But aren't I someone?", letting everyone know "she's doing just fine", not only as a" recently household name adjusting to fame", but also "as an evolving songwriter".[24] !I'm in love with my future/Can't wait to meet her/I'm in love, but not with anybody else/Just want to get to know myself". Eilish sings through jazz-inspired vocals as a "funky" bass line also appears.[27] The song ends on voice and keyboards, with the lyrics: "I'll see you in a couple years."[14]

Music video[edit]

Background and synopsis[edit]

The animated video for the track depicts Eilish contemplating her future.

An animated music video for "My Future" was directed by Australian director Andrew Onorato, and released on Eilish's official YouTube channel the same day the single was released.[14][26] It was produced by Australian animation company Studio Chop.[62] The video was animated by Alex Dray, Onorato, Annie Zhao, Cliona Noonan, Ian Ballantyne, João Monteiro, Josh Trotter, Keith Kavanagh, Maddie Brewer, Nancy Li, Sarah Schmidt, and Sean Anderson.[63] The video has been described as "anime in nature".[64]

The visual tells a story of a young woman “coming into her own".[16] In it, an animated Billie, wearing a necklace with her "Blohsh" logo, with neon green-tinged hair, symbolizes a relationship she's walking away from. She wanders alone through a Studio Ghibli-inspired, psychedelic forest in the rain as she contemplates about her future.[15][25][65] When the second verse comes around, the sun comes out and the forest begins to bloom, as trees engulf Eilish and lift her up to the sky, showing a sign of her hopeful future.[21][26][66]

Critical reception[edit]

The animated video was positively received by music critics upon its release. Jackson Langford of NME called it a "gorgeous animated affair",[26] while Ann Powers of NPR stated Eilish was a "fairy tale heroine" and that the song "dwells within the magic cultivated by an autonomous young woman who's ready to claim her future as it comes".[14] Ronia Aniftos writing for Billboard commented that "[as] [the] sun comes out and the greenery begins to bloom exponentially, [so] [does] Eilish's career continues to do in real life".[21] Kirsten Acuna of Insider viewed the visual as a "beautifully animated music video".[19] Jessica Wang writing for Bustle magazine compared the visual to the works of Hayao Miyazaki, with movies such as: Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro and Kiki's Delivery Service.[63] In a less enthusiastic review, Time Out magazine writer Emma Steen, noted the video "lack[ed] the finesse of a Ghibli anime", but said it was a "mesmerising visual".[62]

Live performances[edit]

Eilish performed the song for the first time on the third night of the 2020 Democratic National Convention.[67]
