I don’t fuck with ASMRcore.

also there’s no way this chick isn’t a CIA plant or something

Why would the CIA plant her into the industry?

I can't look at her and not think she looks like some bitch that is drugged up and gang banged by the execs in Hollywood to get where she is.

Just as with her performance at the Oscars....I don't get it.
Sounds like a girl that doesn't have a particularly great voice smoked a ton of weed, then accidentally took a dozen sleeping pills and went on to record a song.


Does she at very least write her own stuff?
 
Now that is a terrible Bond theme.
Whaaaaaat. This is one of my favourite Bond themes. How come you don't like it?

As for Billy Eyelash's song. It's okay. It doesn't build toward anything so it feels a bit flat all the way through. I'm excited to see how it's implemented in the film. Seems a bit more brooding and sinister than most other themes.

Billie Eilish is ASMR turned into music. That's all.

I don't think it's the worst shit ever but it's also not the greatest pop ever made either.

I really don't get why people worship her.

I also think it's fucking funny that my local Rock Radio tries to pass her as rock and people swallow it.

Yuck. And I say that as a fan of her music. Compare this song to the one she did for Roma and that one shits all over this from a great height.
 
Lots of fake women in hollywood and it's becoming more obvious by the day, the dumbing down of the population through school and consumables has worked well. Making women masculine and men feminine is causing obvious things to become confusing.

Now this one has landed a top gig out of nowhere just in time eh? Nothing to see here move along.
 
I think the Bond franchise is desperate to bring young people into the fold, they really don't care about Bond anymore, to them he is just an old relic, a dinosaur.

Or maybe they should try producing movies and games that aren't garbage to get people interested again?

It just doesn't sound like a Bond theme to me, just generic rock. If I heard that song playing in isolation, without video or the intro, I wouldn't recognise it as being from a Bond film.

That's a tall order that has no easy fix. Craig started out strong and they really fucked up his movies along the way. Even if you came out with an all time classic Bond tomorrow, kids are not going to flock to it Only old timers such as myself would care ,but having Billie do the title song does at least draw kids attention to the franchise. But like I said, they have always gone with who is popular at the time when they could, so its nothing new, and its not horrible, Billie and her brother wrote it and they seem to have captured the feel of what a Bond theme should be, not bad considering she was probably 17 when she recorded it.

They should have asked another Diva, like Celine Dion for example.

She never did a James Bond, did she ?
She is surely talented enough and has the pipes for a James Bond Song.

I mean Ashes was a better James Bond song than this is

God it's so boring.

She is the most overrated musician to come out in the last decade. Her music sounds like it's coming out of a generator cause it's the fucking same.

And for the love of god can we get more energy in Bond songs again after 3 songs in a row now being slow and moody? You know my name still best Craig Bond theme and Casino Royale still the best Craig movie in the series and one of the best Bond movies period.

I see this person mentioned over social media, memes and some entertainment websites but never heard a song of hers until now. The song is okay, quite an understated song for a bond intro. Very small peaks and drops. Not something I would listen to outside of seeing the movie, only because it’s not really my type of music.
 
Boring and sounds like she was just going through the motions for that paycheck (and this is coming from someone who actually likes her music).

Tbf who was ever good at the slow ballad Bond themes was Shirley Bassey (and that one Sheryl Crow did for Tomorrow Never Dies). Other than that, all the good Bond themes were the one that slapped (Live Or Let Die, A View To Kill, The Living Daylights, You Know My Name, Another Way To Die).
