It remains one of the most coveted slots in music history given the clout of the film, but surprisingly the honor of being a James Bond theme song topliner has not historically had the best perks.
Despite courting big names like Madonna, Tina Turner, Adele, Sam Smith, Alicia Keys, and more, of the 14 leading original songs appointed to the movie series over the last 40 years, only six have hit the Billboard Hot 100’s top 40.
The sixth and latest to earn the accomplishment is Billie Eilish‘s ‘No Time To Die’ – the title track for the newest Bond installment’s soundtrack of the same name. A history-making effort as the 18-year-old is the youngest to ever record a song for the franchise, the Finneas-produced tune – after a warmly received performance at the 2020 Academy Awards (click here to watch) – made an impressive #16 debut on the Hot 100 at the end of February.
Less than a month later, it vanished from the Billboard Hot 100.
Despite its promising top 20 opening, peruse of the most refreshed Billboard Hot 100 sees ‘No Time to Die’ notably absent in what would’ve been its fourth week on the tally. As previously mentioned, the short shelf-life is not unusual for themes attached to Bond movies, but ‘Die’ met a special set of circumstances when its parent film’s premiere was pushed back due to the coronavirus pandemic (click here to read more).
The postponement undoubtedly impacted any promotion the song would have been afforded, including the unveiling of its highly anticipated accompanying music video.
The Eilish cut – like most of the Bond tunes before it – has fared much better on the United Kingdom side of the pond, however. Opening at #1 on the Official Charts (as we reported here), the ballad debuted with the highest first week sales of a James Bond theme ever there. Five weeks later it remains in top 20.

Adele skyfall >>>>>>>>>> Billie emoish it’s time for her to DIE
Good. Maybe now they will stop shoving this kid down our throats
Who is Normani?
Nobody is shoving her down anybody’s throat
Her come up is organic
She created a look and a sound unique to herself and that’s why people like her.
And she has the talent to back up the hype.
Ocean eyes is her best song till date
Instead its normani that is being shoved down everybody throats even tho she has no talent to back it up.
Normani is being forced to happen even tho she cant sing, cant write and doesnt play any instruments.
Can only do a split and twèrk
Where was the article about Yikes falling off Billboard after 3 weeks?

Wait a minute.
Camickys psycho stan is comparing an album campaign song with the hottest rapper to a soundtrack song?
??????????????
How low one can go
???????????
MOM is a flop. its been out for 5 months and still hasn’t seen top 20, even with the hottest rapper.
Camicky is NOT a star. She hasn’t 6 tries to get a solo hit in 2019 and it all failed. HOw sad is that.
???????????
FIVE whole months sitting at the bottom of BB while dua has been inching closer and closer to her first SOLO # 1 effortlessly
No ft

Dua slays this lopsided faced bafoon
Why are u talking about dua lipa?
Talk about normani.
Where is normani on the billboard hot 100
Spotify and iTunes 100.
We are waiting for the answers.
???
You can’t compare Normani to a successful Camila. Never
Normani is on Ally or Dina level. Periodt.
My oh my and no time to die both charted on the billboard hot 100. Lol
normani diamonds didnt chart even tho is featured the hottest female rapper at the moment megan thee stallion.
Even tho it had an expensive music video, it still didnt chart
????
My oh my has been on the chart since last year without a music video. Lol
Anyways…
When last did normani see the inside 9f the
Billboard hot 100
iTunes 100
Spotify 100
Billboard 200.
We need answers.
Hahaha clarksons so sad making SEVERAL FAKE ACC it truly has no life, camilas still a certfied flop btw ????
All those snl late night show performances and still flopped lmao
Smh
Who is NorMANly?
She’s the twin sister of YesManly, the former Fifth Harmony singer
????????
Flopped & Dropped
Yeah Normani got dropped by Syco and RCA label for being flopt
I hate to say this, but I’m afraid she’s going to suffer the best new artist curse.
And that is Normani ?%
Normani has never been nominated for a Grammy
She has never been invited to attend the event.
There is no curse for normani to suffer when she doesnt have a career to begin with. Lol
I’m screamingggggg ???????????
Lmao clarskon stop responding to youself
Oh my god ur having a breakdown ???
Go but rat faced flopmilas album xuz its a certfied flop
???
I would agree, except for the fact she has actual talent. She plays instruments, writes music and lyrics, she is not a producers piece of clay to mold. I wish Billie a strong career.
Normani is the US version of Rits Whora ??
That’s mainly because radio stations dropped that and also Sam Smith’s To Die For because of the word ‘die’ in the titles.
Lies
The song is falling on spotify
And iTunes
Sam smith song is still on pop radio, its gains are small tho.
Pls stop spreading lies or talking about things u dont know.
@woowoo
Some stations did but it wasn’t a mass occurrence. It wasn’t so many that streaming and sales (If the public was interested) wouldn’t have kept it in bbhot100
I predict it will rebound when the vid drops
It’s a terrible song!
