One line in particular that makes me want to see it from the perspective of Bond’s daughter is “we were a pair/but I saw you there/too much to bear.” Mathilde and Madeleine were a pair until Bond came back and Mathilde met him through the events of the film and was introduced into his world.

Let’s talk about why the song is pretty much the perfect theme for the movie now that we’ve seen it.

Now that it has finally taken center stage for the movie, and the track is haunting for a more story-centric reason that made the song even better after seeing No Time To Die. Billie’s soft croon has been intermittently in the background since then. But then shocking worldwide events followed that led to movie theater closures, and Daniel Craig’s final outing as 007 was delayed until earlier this month.

Longer than anyone ever anticipated since Billie Eilish’s track first came out almost two years before the release of the James Bond film. Controlling a woman who didn’t want to be associated with them.Bond fans, we’ve had a long time to sit with No Time To Die ’s theme song. “He knew what he was doing they both did. “Any time Scott Borchetta has heard the words ‘Scooter Braun’ escape my lips, it was when I was either crying or trying not to,” she went on.

But, she said, she never dreamed Scott would sell the label to Scooter Braun. She made the choice to prioritize her future over her past. She ultimately refused, knowing he had plans to sell the label. In a lengthy post on her Tumblr account in June 2019, Taylor revealed she had asked to buy her master recordings outright, but claimed Scott counteroffered for her to “earn” them back by re-signing with Big Machine and producing six more albums with the label.
