Is Billie who doesn't really fall under the alternative label. Not Kate Bush or Fiona Apple because they actually are the pioneers of this genre.

I kinda confused, what people mean when they said "alternative"? Is that a word people use to discribe the non-popular music?

There isn't an universal definition really, but yes! Alternative is basically the alternative you have to mainstream & moreradio-friendly music. Alternative is supposed to be more experimental, weird and not be played too much on the radio.

Looking like you just farted doesn’t make you an alternative artist.

But isn't Kate Bush were like, very popular back in time? And we have to kick Lana and Billie out, I guess...

This is gonna be messy if I keep asking and thinking...

Her singles have had various levels of succes in UK, her home country. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kate_Bush_discography It seems ike she had 5 top 5 songs!

Kate Bush charted well in the UK because she is an icon basically but as she grew in her art, she became much less 'mainstream'. The Ninth Wave (second part of Hounds of Love) is very highly conceptual and not mainstream in any way for example, the same goes to her latest release (50 Words for Snow). She's popular for being Kate Bush, not exactly for being radio-friendly if you get what I mean.

Soft, soothing, and succulent

Of course you‘re right. BjÖrk definitely ticks those boxes. It was more regarding to Ms Eilish and Lana.

Only been generalizing for the sake of the joke.
