Billie Eilish has revealed her contribution to the Barbie movie soundtrack.
What Was I Made For? was written specifically for the upcoming film, which stars Margot Robbie in the titular role and Ryan Gosling as Ken.
The pared-back track finds Eilish delivering a raspy, falsetto vocal performance atop a piano melody. It arrives with a simple, yet captivating video that Eilish directed and stars in, dressed as a 1950s Barbie and playing with doll outfits.
'Barbie The Album' will arrive via Atlantic Records on July 21, the same day Barbie The Movie is released to cinemas.
Previously shared singles from the star-studded soundtrack include Dua Lipa's Dance The Night, PinkPantheress' Angel, Karol G's Watati featuring Aldo Ranks, Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice's collaboration Barbie World (with Aqua), Fifty Fifty and Kaliii's Barbie Dreams, and Just Ken, featuring Gosling, Slash and Wolf Van Halen.
Also set to appear on the record are Khalid, Lizzo, Tame Impala, The Kid Laroi, Ava Max, Dominic Fike, and Gayle.
