HOW BILLIE EILISH - WILDFLOWER WAS MADE "Wildflower" is a song by American singer-songwriter Billie Eilish and the fourth single from her third studio album, Hit Me Hard and Soft (2024). She wrote the track with her brother and its producer, Finneas O'Connell. A folk-pop song, "Wildflower" sees Eilish consoling her friend after a breakup only to later begin dating the friend's ex-boyfriend, and the guilt she felt as a result. Genre: Folk-pop Length 4:21 Label: Darkroom Interscope Songwriter: Billie Eilish Finneas O'Connell Producer: Finneas O'Connell Even though Eilish had never clarified who the song is about, it was later reported that multiple lines in the song allude to her relationship with Devon Lee Carlson, the ex-girlfriend of Jesse Rutherford whom she herself dated from October 2022 to May 2023. The song's title is believed to be a reference to Wildflower Cases, a company founded by Carlson. In a deeper analysis, Alex Hopper of American Songwriter opined that "Wildflower" serves as a "pseudo apology" to Carlson, in which Eilish depicts the end of their relationship. It showcases the singer as a "candid and honest" songwriter who does not shy away from highlighting her "rough edges" Upon release, Billboard ranked "Wildflower" as their favorite song from its parent album. According to writer Hannah Dailey, the "soulful and gloomy" song encompasses her "most mature songwriting yet", crafted to make "a complex story look simple" as she obsesses over her partner's ex-girlfriend.
