It was a big night for Billie Eilish at the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards. The Interscope/Dark Room artist took five awards, including the top four categories of song of the year, album of the year, record of the year and best new artist, in addition to best pop solo album.
Her brother Finneas O’Connell was named producer of the year and also took best engineered album, non-classical.
“We didn’t make this album to win a Grammy,” said O’Connell. Rather, they collaborated on an album about “depression, suicidal thoughts, climate change and being a bad guy, whatever that means. … So we stand up here confused and grateful.”
Accepting for song of the year, Eilish was shocked. “Why? Who?,” Eilish exclaimed.
“I feel like I joke around a lot and I never take anything seriously, but I openly want to say that I’m grateful and honored to be here.” Accepting another award later, Eilish said: “I think the fans deserve [mentioning]… They are the only reason we are here at all.”
