Do Billie, Olivia, Sabrina etc have any classics?

Way too early to tell. Some huge smashes from 15 years ago are kind of irrelevant today (e.g. Boom Boom Pow, year-end #1 of 2009). Classics need to endure generations and be immediately recognizable to most people.

I'd say Lovely is one, that song never dies lol.

bad guy and HTE are classics for Billie

 

g4u maybe for Olivia, but I feel it is a bit forgotten now

 

Espresso and PPP have potential, but time will tell...

Drivers License is a classic for sure and so is Lovely.

 

Sabrina will never have classics and will be forgotten in about 2 years.

Billie Bad Guy 

Olivia N/A not yet

Sabrina too early

Honestly Billie's "lovely" is the only song out of these girls that is in classic territory just off longevity alone. WWIMF also has potential.

I couldn't tell you how either of those songs sound apart from "good for you you look happy and healthy"

and I like vampire/get him back

Billie definetely. Imo Olivia isn't as global and I guess her hits were bigger in the US. I don't think older Brazilians will know her hits. 

 

Regarding Sabrina. Too soon to tell.

ocean eyes, lovely, bad guy are very clearly modern classics, same with driver's license and good 4 u. Espresso and BIRDS OF A FEATHER will join them. (Shout out to the clear forever crowd pleasers What Was I Made For?, Happier Than Ever, vampire, traitor and Nonsense).

Olivia would've if she released Deja Vu instead of Driver's License as the lead for Sour :noparty:

too early to tell but at least the three has hits that are known by every demography and will always be on the books for its success and impact on pop culture (drivers, g4u, WWIMF?, bad guy and Espresso)

I'm just saying it's not a Poker Face or Teenage Dream or Toxic

 

not EVERYONE knows it like they do the songs above

Lovely is already a classic, it's closing in on 3B streams on spotify alone. WWIMF? will probably become one in time.

Billie:

  • lovely - huge recurrent stats, everyone knows this song, sleeper hit.
  • bad guy - everyone knows this song, her break-out smash, the recurrent stats aren't great but I don't think those tell the whole story with this one. It was a big moment for her and the climax of her iconic debut era.
  • happier than ever - her most acclaimed song arguably, sleeper hit
  • what was i made for? - oscar winning, signature song of an iconic film, simple but timeless ballad

Olivia:

  • drivers license - her break-out smash, everyone knows this song
  • good 4 u - huge hit, the song of summer 2021 (we all know that BTS song being the #1 song of summer 2021 is a big fat lie), everyone knows this song

Sabrina: way too early to tell how her 2 current hits will hold up

 

We'll see how a couple of Olivia's other songs hold up in the future.

A classic is some tahat stands the test of time... All these songs mentioned are like barely 4-5 years old...

Posted

lovely is the biggest song released since 2015 so yes miss Eilish has a classic

 

good 4 u will probably be also remembered and if not a classic, they will consider it a trendsetter 

 

Sabrina is too early to tell but I feel like Nonsense will be a classic

Don't people on this site debate whether Britney, Taylor or Beyonce have any "classics"?  I don't think people here have valuable opinions on these matters.

I would predict ocean eyes, HTE, and/or WWIMF for Billie, Drivers license and maybe vampire for Olivia, and Sabrina is TBD.

What in the...

Why is that ugly boring Lovely song Billie's classic? :mazen:

 

I ******* hate the GP :mazen:

 

OT: Billie, Olivia both have a couple potential classics already, Sabrina could have Espresso and Please, Please, Please and pull a Cyndi Lauper and never see MPG numbers again. Time will be the ultimate truth teller and she's too early to tell. :celestial5:
