It is time for Buzzjack to choose the Ultimate Bond Song to celebrate the release of the Bond newie, Quantum Of Solace.

 

I will be posting 4 different polls to choose with the songs from the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s/00s listed. Simply choose your favourite and there will be a final at the end with the top 3 or so choices from each deacde put forward.

Can't believe i've heard 2 of these: Goldfinger and You Only Live Twice. I voted for the first :D

Don't even have to think about that too much ... You Only Live Twice is the best Bond song ever! I do have a soft spot for We Have All The Time In The World from OHMSS though too!

 

Norma

1st We Have All The Time In The World, withJohn Barry's instrumental On His Majesty's Secret Service a very close 2nd.

 

I wonder if Duran Duran will reciprocate here their near landslide win on the official James Bond website?

'The James Bond Theme'

 

Live and Let Die to win.

I was all ready to vote for Goldfinger, but I forgot how brilliant the theme to OHMSS is :wub:

'Goldfinger' is the best, but I voted for 'Thunderball'.

 

Why? Tom Jones passed out when hitting the last note of that song during recording. If that doesn't deserve kudos, I don't know what does.

This is no contest. The best James Bond song of any decade is From Russia With Love by the greatest British singer ever: Matt Monro. No other singer can match the warmth, vocal range, phrasing, and depth of emotion that he put into every song.
I'd love the new Bond theme to have been by Shirley Bassey - after her awesome Living Tree single - she's obviously still got what it takes... maybe Shirley Bassey with Massive Attack - now what a splendid combo that would be :wub:
