Posted August 4, 20159 yr http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh602/Johnkm90/bond%20rate_zps8roy1mzd.jpg So, with SPECTRE not far off the theme song for that soon to be announced, I thought it would be a good time to RATE the current Bond themes. They span over 50 years and almost every (respectable, not shit) genre known to man, woman, alien or Scot. I've included Lani Hall's Never Say Never Again for completeness sake, as it was the theme tune to a James Bond film, even if it wasn't one of the MAIN ones. 00 Monty Norman - Dr. No 00 Matt Monro - From Russia With Love 00 Shirley Bassey - Goldfinger 00 Tom Jones - Thunderball 00 Nancy Sinatra - You Only Live Twice 00 The John Barry Orchestra - On Her Majesty's Secret Service 00 Louis Armstrong - We Have All The Time In The World 00 Shirley Bassey - Diamonds Are Forever 00 Paul McCartney & Wings - Live & Let Die 00 Lulu - The Man With The Golden Gun 00 Carly Simon - Nobody Does It Better 00 Shirley Bassey - Moonraker 00 Sheena Easton - For Your Eyes Only 00 Rita Coolidge - All Time High 00 Lani Hall - Never Say Never Again 00 Duran Duran - A View To A Kill 00 A-ha - The Living Daylights 00 Galdys Knight - License To Kill 00 Tina Turner - Goldeneye 00 Sheryl Crow - Tomorrow Never Dies 00 Garbage - The World Is Not Enough 00 Madonna - Die Another Day 00 Chris Cornell - You Know My Name 00 Alicia Keys & Jack White - Another Way To Die 00 Adele - Skyfall As usual with these things, please rate all the songs out of 10, with one -1 and one 11 allowed, but as always these are optional. This rate will close SUNDAY AUGUST 23RD at 23:59pm. ENJOY (and discuss)

August 4, 20159 yr Author Wow, a 0 for Moonraker is...unexpected. I didn't think it would get ANY divisive marks at all.
August 4, 20159 yr 08 Monty Norman - Dr. No 08 Matt Monro - From Russia With Love 07 Shirley Bassey - Goldfinger 10 Tom Jones - Thunderball (Classic James Bond song for me with LALD :heart: ) 08 Nancy Sinatra - You Only Live Twice 07 The John Barry Orchestra - On Her Majesty's Secret Service 06 Louis Armstrong - We Have All The Time In The World 09 Shirley Bassey - Diamonds Are Forever 11 Paul McCartney & Wings - Live & Let Die 07 Lulu - The Man With The Golden Gun 07 Carly Simon - Nobody Does It Better 09 Shirley Bassey - Moonraker 08 Sheena Easton - For Your Eyes Only 07 Rita Coolidge - All Time High 08 Lani Hall - Never Say Never Again 09 Duran Duran - A View To A Kill 05 A-ha - The Living Daylights 07 Galdys Knight - License To Kill 10 Tina Turner - Goldeneye 07 Sheryl Crow - Tomorrow Never Dies 08 Garbage - The World Is Not Enough 05 Madonna - Die Another Day 06 Chris Cornell - You Know My Name 00 Alicia Keys & Jack White - Another Way To Die (I can't even remember this song. So it has be quite a forgettable song) 06 Adele - Skyfall (Probably would've been higher if it didn't get overplayed on radio) I feel like the earlier theme songs were so much better than the later ones. Hoping that Ellie or whoever is doing the song this time will nail it.

Listening to Shirley Bassey and Tom Jones on loud through headphones really shows off how incredible their voices are. Every time I hear 'We Have All the Time in the World', I remember the heartbreaking ending of its respective film. :cry: Big shout out to 'Surrender' which is possibly my favourite Bond theme of all. Thankfully, 'Tomorrow Never Dies' is also excellent so I'm not gutted it didn't get the bill. 'If There Was a Man' by The Pretenders is also brilliant, as is Celine Dion's version of 'If You Asked Me To' (although that's not the version used on Licence to Kill).
August 18, 20159 yr Author Big shout out to 'Surrender' which is possibly my favourite Bond theme of all. Thankfully, 'Tomorrow Never Dies' is also excellent so I'm not gutted it didn't get the bill. 'If There Was a Man' by The Pretenders is also brilliant, as is Celine Dion's version of 'If You Asked Me To' (although that's not the version used on Licence to Kill). The FULL Patti version of If You Asked Me To is every bit as good as Celine's. Bitch knows how to SQUEEZE every ounce of every single note. I think Surrender is definitely up there too, it's also what Skyfall was trying to be (an updated take on the Bond classic) but failed to nail.
