Billie Eilish, Questlove Among Big Music Winners At 2022 Oscars

"I'm so happy right now I could cry."

For the third time in Oscars history, a Bond theme has won Best Original Song, with Billie Eilish’s No Time To Die proving to be a big hit.

Previous Bond themes to claim the honour include Adele’s Skyfall and Sam Smith’s Writing’s On The Wall.

Eilish and FINNEAS performed the award-winner track during the ceremony.

Also scoring accolades this year was Questlove, whose Summer Of Soul picked up Best Documentary Feature. During his acceptance speech, The Roots’ drummer noted: "I'm so happy right now I could cry."

Meanwhile, Dune picked up Best Sound and Best Original Score, the latter of which saw Hans Zimmer make history.

As Billboard notes, no other composer has waited as long as Zimmer has to win his second Oscar, having last claimed the award 27 years ago for The Lion King.

Zimmer’s second win has been a long time coming, with the acclaimed muso being nominated 10 times since The Lion King.

Other performances throughout the event came from Beyoncé, Reba McEntire, Sebastián Yatra and more.
