Billie Eilish double album theory: will the singer pull a Taylor Swift on ‘Hit Me Hard and Soft’?

With the singer releasing a short 10-track blue-themed album, fans are wondering if there is a red one in store.

Billie Eilish's new album ‘Hit Me Hard and Soft’ drops today, but some fans are convinced there's more to come. While some were disappointed by the 10-track record length, a hidden message and Eilish's use of color have fueled speculation of a second album.

Vinyl owners noticed Eilish’s cryptic question after the credits, “But when can I hear the next one?” Additionally, fans noticed Eilish's use of both blue and red throughout the album's rollout – mirroring the two-toned color scheme of Taylor Swift's surprise album.

Fans believe ‘Hit Me Hard and Soft’ is the ‘blue’ half of a double album, with a surprise ‘red’ record on the way.

Some users online are referencing Eilish's synesthesia where she associates colors with sounds and the blue-red characters in the ‘ilomilo’ video game, referenced in her debut album.
