Billie Eilish on composing the theme for No Time To Die

She said that it feels crazy to be a part of this in every way. She said that this project is a huge honour for her. James Bond is the coolest film franchise ever to exist and she is still in shock, the singer said.

The last two Bond themes, Adele's Skyfall and Sam Smith's Writing's On The Wall have both won an Oscar. Eilish composed the theme with her brother Finneas O'Connell, with whom she created her Grammy-nominated debut album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? last year.
