Last updated

"Ocean Eyes" has a tempo of 145 beats per minute (BPM). [13] The song is played in the key of E minor, while Eilish's vocals span a range of E3 to B5. [13] Critical commentary described "Ocean Eyes" as a pop, dream-pop, synth-pop, indie-pop, and R&B ballad. [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] Laurence Day of The Line of Best Fit described the song having "sparse percussion" and "low-slung bass". He further mentions Eilish's vocals "are soft and melodic, dispersing amongst the effervescent synths". [19] Writing for i-D , Mathias Rosenzweig described the song as an "unhurried, minimalist beats and lush synths, reminiscent of ocean waves on a dreary grey day". [20]

Mathias Rosenzweig of Vogue stated that Eilish compares "love to falling off a cliff" and that she is "surrounded by the warlike intensity of napalm skies" and further says it's "a profound description for a 14-year-old, and it's led to an enormous amount of interest in her debut song—as well as the singer herself. Rosenzweig mentions the song has "airy soprano vocals [that] also conjure up thoughts of the ocean washing over the song's mellow percussion and minimalist synths. The song's maturity paired with a few childish ideals—she sings, for example, that love is 'no fair'—struck a chord. [21] Claudia Willen of Insider stated that lyrically, "Ocean Eyes" is about a "dreamy love letter to a crush with ocean eyes": "I've been watchin' you for sometime/Can't stop staring at those ocean eyes/Burning cities and napalm skies/Fifteen flares inside those ocean eyes/Your ocean eyes". [1]

[23] Adrien Begrand from PopMatters affirmed the song shows Eilish's "precocious talent". [24] Mike Wass writing for Idolator labeled the song as a "dreamy ballad". [25]

NME ranked "Ocean Eyes" at number 11 on its "Every single Billie Eilish song ranked in order of greatness" list, with the staff saying the "most memorable moments on 'Ocean Eyes' are its most vulnerable, like the opening whispers or the sure-footed yet restrained chorus". [26] Insider said "one could easily question if Eilish would be the household name she is now without the success of this stunning [song]". [1] Dan Regan of Billboard praised Astronomyy's remix, saying "[Eilish's] voice echoes over a stripped down intro before a tinny beat kicks in with some new background vocals", while he cited Blackbear's remix brought the song "new emotional heights" and described it has "trapped ou with 808 tinges and even more ghostly with his added vocal harmonies". [27]
