Folds wrote and produced the song in question for the soundtrack to Over The Hedge, the 2006 DreamWorks Animation film starring Bruce Willis, Steve Carell, William Shatner and more.
Yesterday (January 3), Eilish posted a 51-second clip on TikTok that sees her performing a delicate solo rendition of ‘Still’ on a piano at what appears to be her home.
A twinkling Christmas tree appears in the background of the festive video as the track’s lyrics are displayed onscreen.
“I must give the impression that I have the answers for everything,” Eilish sings tenderly. “You were so disappointed to see me unravel so easily/ It’s only change, it’s only everything I know/ It’s only change, and I’m only changing.”
