Billie Eilish teams up with Charli XCX on 'Guess,' an explicit song that leaves nothing to the imagination

Music news

“Guess, guess…” Charli XCX said on her social networks just 24 hours ago. A single black and white photograph showing two bodies from the waist down put us on the trail of a possible important international collaboration, with which we even dreamed of the name of Rosalia. However, Guess has come from the hand of Billie Eilish.

After using a euphemism under the title of Lunch (I could eat that girl for lunch, yeah she dances on my tongue) to give us a song in which he opens up a little more about his sexuality, The American seems to have joined forces with the British to provide us with a second part. And there are verses that seem interconnected.

To start with, this sensual collaboration with highly explicit content talks about underwear and, ultimately, about having oral sex with another woman. Secondly, if in the included topic of Hit me hard & soft Billie says “I bought you something unusual, I left it in Claire's name” (Said, “I bought you somethin' rare / And I left it under 'Claire'”)in Guess She notes, “I don't have to guess the color of your underwear. I already know what you're wearing. It's that black lingerie set with the bows. The one I picked out for you in Tokyo.” (Don't have to guess the color of your underwear / Already know what you've got goin' on down there / It's that lacy black pair with the little bows / The ones I picked out for you in Tokyo).

As for the video clip directed by Aidan Zamiri, The two share the scene in a parallel world where It's no longer raining men, as Geri Halliwell saw, but panties and bras. The dream of any fan of going to the market or what Jesulín de Ubrique experienced in each bullring during the 90s (and even Drake during his last tour).

Two curiosities about this music video are, on the one hand, that it was recorded on a Sunday; and, on the other, that The underwear featured will be donated to charity and will be donated to the NGO I Support The Girlsan association based in Indianapolis (USA) that collects and distributes this type of clothing to people at risk of social exclusion, such as homeless women or those living in poverty.
