We’ll Overlap

Billlie “Eunoia”

I don’t always check on the English translation of lyrics sung in other languages but I’m glad that I did for “Eunoia,” a song that definitely feels a little deeper upon realizing it’s a fantasy about meeting another version of yourself. The music feels like a euphoric dance pop love song, so I suppose the intended effect is taking this twin fantasy as something exciting and romantic. Maybe not the musical version of the old “would you have sex with a clone of yourself” question, but not too far off either, since I think there’s lines that allow that interpretation. I think what Billlie is going for is more like a literal take on self-love – if you could meet yourself as a person entirely separate from your existence, would you love that person? Would you be excited to have so much in common?
