Billie Eilish Teases ‘Spirited Away’ Inspired Track Off Upcoming Album

Billie Eilish teased a snippet of "Chihiro," one of her upcoming album's tracks.

Billie Eilish is nearly a month away from dropping her third studio album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, this spring without releasing any singles beforehand. However, in a new interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe, she decided to break the rules a little bit and tease a 15-second snippet of one of the project’s tracks. The song, reportedly titled “Chihiro” in reference to the main character in the beloved Studio Ghibli film, Spirited Away, features a thumping melody with Eilish singing in her characteristically soft tone: “Today, maybe tomorrow/ Open the door for me/ I know you said before/ You can’t cope with it no more.” Eilish has been a longtime fan of Hayao Miyazaki’s filmography, and has even jokingly admitted to having a crush on the dragon in Spirited Away.
