Things We Saw Today: Billie Eilish’s James Bond Song Slaps. I Have Spoken.

The importance of a Bond song is a difficult thing to explain. If you know, then you know. Basically, a Bond song is a very important aspect of the film and Billie Eilish, who did the song for No Time to Die, is the youngest singer to take on the task. Joining the storied ranks of Shirley Bassey, Paul McCartney, Adele, and many more, Eilish showed her range, her power, and her ability to give us an iconic song for the James Bond franchise.

Listen here:

Twitter had their fun reactions to Eilish’s take on Bond.

This though? This is actual footage of my brain.

Personally, I think it’s an incredible Bond song. To be fair, I love almost all of them because of the feeling they give me, but I still assert that Billie Eilish did an incredible job with her take, and I can’t wait to see No Time to Die.
