Billie Eilish - Ocean Eyes (Young Bombs Remix)

On a serious note, the story behind this track is pretty incredible:

"Yo guys, Martin here.
The last two months have been an insanely dark and difficult time as my dad was diagnosed with aggressive pancreatic cancer. The doctors at first thought he would have months to live, however the cancer had other plans and he was taken from us a week ago March 5th. Having already begun working on this track during the last week of his life, Ocean Eyes took on an entirely new meaning to me. I will never forget sitting in the hospital, holding his hand (he was basically unable to speak at this point) and he would just stare at me with his deep, blue eyes. I could only imagine what words he would have been saying if he could have spoken. This song in turn, would speak to me everyday following his visits, so it holds a very special place in my heart. Tristan and I hope that this song can help heal anyone else out there who needs to be lifted up during a dark time.
This remix is dedicated to Leonard Kottmeier, January 4th, 1937 - March 5th, 2016.
R.I.P “Dr. Jazz” you will forever be in our hearts."
