Billie Eilish performs cover of Paramore's "The Only Exception"
During the first of two nights at Accor Arena in Paris, on the HIT ME HARD AND SOFT TOUR, Billie Eilish performed a cover of Paramore's track, "The Only Exception".
No strangers to each other's music – in 2022, during Eilish's headline set at Coachella, Hayley Williams joined her onstage to perform an acoustic version of one of Paramore's most famous songs, "Misery Business". A year later, Billie Eilish joined them in Los Angeles to perform "All I Wanted", which features on the 2009 album, Brand New Eyes.
