I took you back when I was seventeen
I watched it all from the passenger's seat
I waited up for nothing more
He didn't want to explore
I put your stuff in a paper bag
I let it soak in the rain, let it wash all away
I let it wash all away
Safe to say the least
There's not much I can keep in line
But I don't mind
I'll just fly to Japan to cry
Safe to say the least
There's not much I can keep in line
But I don't mind
I'll just fly to Japan and cry
I watched you let me go again
This time alone with a definite end
Thank God I packed my common sense
I think it's time to begin
The night life and stories like these
Somebody would call and beg me not to leave
Why should I wait for you?
Safe to say the least
There's not much I can keep in line
But I don't mind
I'll just fly to Japan to cry

There appears to be a short wiki entry as of 2/2/23, but not linked in RP yet.
When there is no wiki entry, does BillG write the little bio blurb?
'The west part'...made me chuckle.

At first I thought this was Nataly Dawn from Pomplamoose. Kinda similar style.
Billie Ellishish.
Her face in that picture is a perfect reflection of the current state of Britian... and the USA, and pretty much everywhere at the moment.
Adrianne Lenker (Big Thief) meets (yes.........) Billie E......., but she is totally killi'n it.
Hope she keeps it up, play her all YA want.
All her songs so far have been great. This whole ALt J style of modern Music is making my Gen X brain HAPPY.... she seems to be a true gem?

I like this a lot instantly. Cool vibe.
Song title had me realize there is a big gap in the RP playlist of the BAND "Japan" - Bill..?
...and here I was thinking it was Leslie Feist...

I wasPOSITIVE this was Billie Eilish. Shows what I know! Really drew me in.
