Barcelona, ​​Jun 14. (EFE) .- The Spanish fans of singer Billie Eilish, considered the most influential musical artist of generation Z, have finally been able to enjoy the spectacle ‘Hit Me Hard and Soft’, with which the Californinana has been turning for months. And it has been electric.

“It is fantastic to be here. Time has passed.” The artist recognized, who spent Barcelona in 2019, when he was 18 years old and her career had only started to take off.

The fans had already seen almost everything on the tour in their omnipresent social networks: the light white square in which the young woman appears in the middle of the track, the visuals not suitable for photosensitive and the intimate moments to the piano.

But it didn’t matter. He has not subtracted an apex of emotion to the concert live judging by the level of collective screaming of the more than 18,000 souls that tonight have vibrated in the Palau Sant Jordi.

The show that Eilish has brought to Barcelona – a stop in Spain – has combined acoustic parts with high levels of musical and visual production, as well as a 360 -degree scenario that allows him to be right in the middle of the track and approach his fans, most of the aesthetics do not binarie like her.

The voice of a generation

It is that connection with a generation with which it shares new visions about gender, sexuality, climate change or mental health, one of the success of the world’s most listened to the world in Spotify. Although after the story there is also a lot of talent.

The life of this artist has been very quickly since he was a teenager – no one had won a Grammy for the best young album – and yet impresses his presence on the stage and mastery of vocal records with some themes that he has mostly composed in his own teenage room with his brother and producer, fighters.

The interpreter, with her usual cap and American football t -shirt, has opened as usual with the themes of the last album ‘Chihiro’ and ‘Lunch’, in which he speaks with the relationship with a girl.

Eilish, like so many others, is bisexual. If in the nineties more than one idol had to be assembled so as not to harm his career, now naturalness when facing affective tastes and adds, and there is nothing to hide.

From silence to madness

The recital, of about two hours, has continued with ‘There I Am’, ‘Wildflower’ and ‘When the Party’s Over’, for which he has asked for a single minute of silence to be able to use his own ‘loops’ vocals recorded at that time in the final part of the song.

Such has been the effort of the followers that have happened the ‘I love you’ from different points of the stadium as soon as they have had the green light of the singer.

Less intimate and more cane – Eilish loves to move from one end to the other of the stage and dance without complexes, as if he were in his fourth comb in hand – they have been ‘The Dinener’ and ‘Iomilo’.

Also ‘Bad Guy’, perhaps the most great -grandson of his second album and one of the most celebrated, judging by the boats of the public on the track.

A climb before ‘Bury A Friend’, about lasting friendships that die over the years.

A message to his city, Los Angeles

The Los Angeles artist wanted to stop a moment to show her rejected “for the difficult moments” that “El Mundo” is going through and, especially, her country and her city. “These are moments of great pain, we send love,” he claimed.

It has been the longest intervention of the show. In the dialogue between Eilish and his fans, words are often left over. A look, a smile, captured by giant screens, is enough to go crazy by force of complicity and admiration.

Another of the most special moments has sdio the direct of ‘Ocean Eyes’, his first letter of presentation of that first album ‘Don’t Smile at Me’. Who has followed another of the favorites: ‘L’Amour de Ma Vie’.

In the final stretch, ‘What Was I Made for?’ Has arrived, the song of Barbie’s soundtrack that earned an Oscar for the best song (and has another: that of the James Bond ‘movie’ no time to die ‘).

Farewell with ‘Birds of A Feather’

The closure, as has been the usual tonic on the tour, has been with ‘Birds of a Feather’, the last and definitive success of the singer, as optimistic as nostalgic.

The tour, which is giving its last pumps in Europe and will end in July in Dublin, began at the end of 2024 and has traveled North America and Australia, with an audience that is counted in hundreds of thousands of people (beyond the millions of listeners of the artist, with a record in Spotify).

Tickets for both concerts in Barcelona have been exhausted for months, and a part of the benefits of these locations will be used for non -profit organizations that fight against food insecurity and climate crisis.

The singer has encouraged to use public transport or share a car to see her and reduce the carbon footprint. EFE
