Congrats Billie Eilish & FINNEAS!
In 2024 Billie Eilish won an Academy Award for Best Original Song and two Grammy Awards for Song of the Year and Best Song.
The song became the tenth song in history to win both an Academy Award for Best Original Song and a Grammy Award for Song of the Year and Eilish became the youngest person to win two Academy Awards in any category.
Billie Eilish wrote the song "What Was I Made For?" for the soundtrack of the 2023 Barbie movie. It was recorded and performed on a Petrof upright piano.
