Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell’s 007 song has won a Golden Globe, a Grammy, and now an Oscar Award for best original song.
The sister-and-brother duo thanked the entire Bond crew, and O’Connell ended his speech by thanking their parents, saying they had “always been our biggest inspirations and our heroes. We love you as parents and we love you as real people, too.”
They beat out some big names like Beyoncé, Van Morrison, and Lin-Manuel Miranda to win. They also stopped Diane Warren from winning her first Academy Award on her 13th attempt.
“No Time to Die” debuted at No. 16 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States, however it debuted at No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart and the Irish Singles Chart in the United Kingdom.
Artists were invited to contribute their best efforts at a theme music for the iconic opening titles by the directors behind Daniel Craig’s latest role as James Bond. Longtime fans of the franchise, Eilish and O’Connell recorded their demo on a tour bus between shows and submitted it for consideration. Eilish and Finneas were handed a script with only the first scene of the movie to go on, according to Eilish.
Eilish became the youngest recording artist to work on a James Bond theme tune when she recorded the song at the age of 18. Jimmy Napes and Sam Smith’s “Writing’s on the Wall” from “Spectre” in 2016 and Adele and Paul Epworth’s “Skyfall” from 2013 were the previous two Bond songs to win an Academy Award for best song.
