Thanks. I was hoping for something a little more rhythmic, but this is the best Daniel Craig Theme song yet. Seriously better than most of the themes since John Barry stopped writing/producing the music.
You are right D, I have no idea who approved the Quantum of Solace song, but that was a very serious mistake. I was so embarrassed I could not wait until the next Bond movie, it had to be an improvement. I am not saying the song is bad, but it was a bad choice for this film series.
I like all songs for Craig’s movies and I think that some people just don’t get it. Sam Smith’s was a great song but should never have him sing it!!
I mean really, ‘Die Another Day’ he said it was a great sone. No it wasn’t. it was trash, made no sense and was the worst one since Man With The Golden Gun.
The James Bond film ‘Die Another Day’ was originally going to be titled ‘Ice Cold Kill’, and the theme picked for it was called ‘Beyond The Ice’ by an unknown group called Red Flag (at least I’d never heard of them before, nor since). It was actually a really good theme. I’d have been pleased to have that song in my official collection, but no, the producers wanted a cameo by Madonna in the film (gawd only knows why!) and so they said she could do the theme tune too. Its why the title was changed and why we got the theme of torture that we did. I suppose the title sequence made sense in many respects as we, the audience got to be tortured along with Bond all the way though the title track. Sam Smith was a mistake, FULL STOP. Chris Cornell’s theme effort was not as bad in hind sight compared to those that followed, but it still was not that good, Adelle is a horrible singer, but her theme might have worked in other more melodic hands. Alicia Keys and Jack White’s effort was again torture. For all of Craig’s movies I prefer listening to instrumentals of the Themes, much better. And that leave us with Billie Eilish. Finally a decent theme by a pretty good singer. Not as upbeat or dark as I would have liked, but still it is good. Strangely though the version she played at the BRIT awards sounds slightly better than the actual studio version. Seriously go search the version of this theme out on YouTube. Is there a definitive James Bond Theme… yes… its… On Her Majesty’s Secret Service by John Barry. And that was an instrumental! ‘nuf said.

Remember when Bond songs were good? It’s been so long.
She sounds like Adell without auto-tune. I don’t mind waiting a bit longer in the popcorn line till this “song” is over.
