So, with the new Bond film out soon, thought it would be fun to find Buzzjack's favourite Bond theme song.

 

This time: the 1970s!

 

 

Shirley Bassey - Diamonds Are Forever (1971)

 

 

Paul McCartney & The Wings - Live & Let Die (1973)

 

 

Lulu - The Man With The Golden Gun (1974)

 

 

Carly Simon - Nobody Does it Better (1977)

 

 

Shirley Bassey - Moonraker (1979)

 

 

VOTE VOTE VOTE :tirren:

Went for "Diamonds are forever" though I expect "Live and let die" to walk it. Special mention to Carly Simon who was my second choice!

Nobody Does It Better is my favourite ever Bond theme so it gets my vote :wub:

So many good ones here but Carly Simon takes the vote

 

Lulu was a close second

 

I reckon my 3rd choice (Paul) will win....

Carly Simon with "Nobody Does It Better" by a long mile!

Live & Let Die for me, but Carly Simon was close!

All of these are brilliant! :wub: Nobody Does It Better and Live and Let Die are probably my favourites, but my vote goes to the former. Shirley Bassey is still the ultimate Bond theme singer.

Live & Let Die for me, but Carly Simon was close!

Ditto

What a FABULOUS collection of songs. It was between Diamonds are Forever and Live and Let Die for me but the latter just edges it, plus it's the only song which is actually performed by a character in the film for added weirdness.

 

Live And Let Die is the best Bond theme ever so it had to be that, however Nobody Does It Better is very good too and Diamonds Are Forever is OK. I don't know the rest.

I don't know the rest.

Have a look at the youtube vids, just so you enjoy the crapness of the Man With The Golden Gun (with the lyric 'he has a powerful weapon, he charges a million a shot'?!

Live & Let Die easily. My favourite Bond theme, Diamonds are Forever would be my second actually so its a shame I can't vote for both.

Shirley Bassey - Diamonds Are Forever

Voted: Live & Let Die

Haha, I knew I would be the only one voting for Moonraker! For me the best Bassey Bond theme, understated yet stunningly beautiful. Then there's the *.* REMIX over the closing credits which is quite special too.

*.* indeed.

Carly :heart: Such a nice tune!

The remix is brilliant! :wub: I also like the Dirty Vegas remix of Die Another Day which was used on that film's credits.

Definitely Carly Simon and "Nobody Does It Better", "Coming Around Again" and "You're So Vain" are three classics from Carly.

*.* indeed.

 

You just cannot beat some DISCO STRINGS.
