Billie Eilish featured a snippet of ā€˜The Officeā€™ in her song ā€˜My Strange Addictionā€™

ā€œNo, Billie, I havenā€™t done that dance since my wife died.ā€ It seems like a pretty weird quote to include in a song. Then again, Billie Eilish and Finneas arenā€™t afraid to take risks with their music.

Thatā€™s especially true when it comes to showcasing Billie Eilishā€™s love for the comedy series, The Office. The artist even sampled some quotes from the episode ā€œThreat Level Midnight.ā€ In it, one of the main characters creates a short film and reads from his script.

One of the characters is named ā€œBillie,ā€ which is super perfect for Billie Eilish to include in one of her songs from When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? Eve Nelson, The Officeā€˜s song producer said in an interview with Rolling Stone that she was ā€œecstaticā€ at Billieā€™s addition.

ā€œCanā€™t say enough about that girl,ā€ Nelson said. ā€œShe is, to me, one of the finest young artists of today. She takes risks. Sheā€™s herself. She marches to her own drummer. I love what she did with that. I thought it was brilliant. I could hear that she got slightly inspired by the beat. I respect and admire her so much. Iā€™m honored that I have anything to do with inspiring Billie Eilish.ā€
