Billie Eilish and Finneas O'Connell, who won Oscars together, created Oscar history on Sunday night by becoming the youngest winners of the Best Song prize two times in history.
The soulful performance left people teary-eyed and why not? The lyrics that go ¡°I used to float, now I just fall down. I used to know but I'm not sure now. What I was made for. What was I made for?. Takin' a drive, I was an ideal. Looked so alive, turns out I'm not real. Just something you paid for. What was I made for?¡± left people emotional.
