Happier Than Ever: Lettera d'amore a Los Angeles

Wow! Just amazing! Everything is amazing! Billie and her live vocals make an exciting and amazing comeback, lots of emotion and it is just one of the best concert films I have ever seen! 10/10, definitely going to watch several more times! If you are a fan of Billie, you are going to love this!

I am in my 20s, just so you understand better where this review is coming from. I don't usually like pop, but something about Billie's brutal honesty and raw talent just blows me away. I first fell for her music after hearing No Time to Die. I admit I don't like all her songs; Oxytocin just made my head hurt. My favorites right now are Your Power 😢, Happier than Ever, and Male Fantasy. Her line about craving pity in Getting Older hits so hard; so many things that she says are just...wow. Good for her for being so honest. Not My Responsibility (spoken) and Overheated were painful to hear but important. She reminds us that she's just a young woman growing up with more scrutiny and criticism than we can imagine. I sense a lot of pain in her, and a fascinating mixture of both vulnerability and strength.

The video itself was quite good, with a tasteful mixture of animation and live action, spoken word and singing. To be clear, it's a concert with an occasional music video format. It still includes some profanity, but f-words are removed. It also includes some sexual innuendo and one irreverent reference. It's not for kids, but most teens could navigate it. I enjoyed it; it really showcases her power as a performer.

Halley's comet gave me chills, the orchestra was amazing!!! The animation was also 10/10. And i loved the way the choir sang "goldwing", she is a genius.

This concert is mostly a Philharmonic version with the LA Philharmonic, Billie's latest CD really fits this style a lot, as she herself indicates that she was influenced by films and music from before. In addition to the concert, where she plays her entire album (a modern way of presenting her latest work), she has a 30-minute behind-the-scenes documentary where one can see the amount of staff that worked with her for 4 days to make this concert, and all the effort and hours of work that a one-hour concert entails. My favorite songs are my future, Billie Bossa Nova, Your Power, Happier Than ever. They also show how her family accompanies her and how her brother Phineas is the one who plays with her.

It's about the music. If you're expecting a music video visual feast - all too common on YouTube - you'll come away less impressed. If you stay for the music, it's a perfect balance of music and visuals. Easily one of the better Dolby Atmos music mixes available, highly recommend that you listen to this as it was intended on an Atmos enabled system. Thanks Billie and thanks to Disney+!
