Grammy Award winning artist Billie Eilish released the official theme song for the new James Bond 007 movie, No Time To Die. You can listen to the new song in the embedded player below.

Billie Eilish is set to perform the song live at the Brit Awards on February 18 with guests Hans Zimmer and Johnny Marr. The track was produced by Eilish’s brother, Finneas alongside Stephen Lipson. The song features orchestral arrangements by Hans Zimmer and Matt Dunkley, and guitar from Johnny Marr.

With this song, Eilish is now the youngest artist in history to write and record a James Bond theme song. Producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli said on the song, “Billie and FINNEAS have written an incredibly powerful and moving song for No Time To Die, which has been impeccably crafted to work within the emotional story of the film.”

No Time To Die director Cary Joji Fukunaga added, “There are a chosen few who record a Bond theme. I am a huge fan of Billie and FINNEAS. Their creative integrity and talent are second to none and I cannot wait for audiences to hear what they’ve brought – a fresh new perspective whose vocals will echo for generations to come.”

Eilish herself added: “It feels crazy to be a part of this in every way. To be able to score the theme song to a film that is part of such a legendary series is a huge honor. James Bond is the coolest film franchise ever to exist. I’m still in shock”. FINNEAS adds, “writing the theme song for a Bond film is something we’ve been dreaming about doing our entire lives. There is no more iconic pairing of music and cinema than the likes of Goldfinger and Live and Let Die. We feel so so lucky to play a small role in such a legendary franchise, long live 007.”

No Time To Die hits theaters in the UK on April 2 from Universal Pictures and the US on April 10 through MGM via United Artists Releasing.
