Grammy Awards 2021: Billie Eilish Makes History After Winning for Unreleased James Bond Theme Song in No Time To Die

Singer Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas won the best song written for visual media Grammy award for their James Bond theme from the unreleased No Time to Die movie. It was for the first time in the Grammys history that a track from an unreleased film won the award. In the past, the song, titled "No Time to Die", would have been disqualified, but the Grammy soundtrack committee tweaked its rules amid the coronavirus pandemic, which had a huge impact on movie release calender. Grammys 2021 LIVE UPDATES: Billie Eilish Bags The Record of the Year Award.
