Billie Eilish is breaking records with her new release for the upcoming James Bond film.

Another song, another record set for Billie Eilish. The 18-year-old songstress has become the youngest singer to take a James Bond theme to the top of the charts. It was also her first Official Charts Company U.K. #1 single to date.

Eilish's "No Time To Die" is only the second Bond theme to hit the top of the charts, but it did so with the biggest opening week numbers ever. The only other theme to hit the top previously was Sam Smith's "Writing's On The Wall" in 2015.

The record chart-topping news comes amid a slew of additional accolades scored by Eilish. She recently surpassed the coveted 1 billion stream milestone in the U.K. and won big at the Brit Awards, taking home the award for top International Female Solo Artist.
