[9] Eilish added that "it was exactly where my head was at - hopeful, excited and a craaaazy amount of self-reflection and self-growth.

Many journalists compared the music video's aesthetic to that of anime; some said it was reminiscent of Studio Ghibli films.

An animated music video for "My Future" was directed by Australian director Andrew Onorato, and released on Eilish's official YouTube channel the same day as the single. [17] [26] It was produced by Australian animation company Chop Studio. [62] The video was animated by Alex Dray, Andrew Onorato, Annie Zhao, Cliona Noonan, Nancy Li, and Sarah Schmidt. [63] The visual has been described as "anime in nature". [64]

The visual tells a story of a young woman "coming into her own". [15] In it, an animated Billie symbolizes a relationship she's walking away from. She wanders alone through a Studio Ghibli-inspired, psychedelic forest in the rain while contemplating about her future. [16] [29] [65] When the second verse comes around, the sun comes out and the forest begins to bloom, as trees engulf Eilish and lift her up to the sky. [26] [66] [67]

Critical reception

The animated video was positively received by critics upon release. Jackson Langford of NME called it a "gorgeous animated affair", [26] while Ann Powers of NPR stated Eilish is a "fairy tale heroine" and that the video "dwells within the magic cultivated by an autonomous young woman who's ready to claim her future as it comes".

[66] Kirsten Acuna of Insider viewed the visual as a "beautifully animated music video". [24] Jessica Wang, writing for Bustle magazine, compared the visual to the works of Hayao Miyazaki, with movies such as: Spirited Away (2001), My Neighbor Totoro (1998), and Kiki's Delivery Service (1989). [63] In a less enthusiastic review, Time Out magazine writer Emma Steen noted the video "lack[s] the finesse of a Ghibli anime", but said it is a "mesmerising visual". [62]

Live performances and other usage

Eilish performed the song for the first time on the third night of the 2020 Democratic National Convention. [68] A few days later, she and Finneas played the song for NPR's "Tiny Desk (Home) Concert". [69] [70] Eilish performed the song at the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball in December 2020, with Finneas playing the piano and providing background vocals. [71] In September 2020, American singer Miley Cyrus covered the song for BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge while surrounded by candles and a masked band. [72] [73] [74]
