Another Way to Die is the best Bond song

No question. It’s the best. Going to need a good explanation as to why I’m wrong.

(World is Not Enough a strong contender).

It's not my favourite but Man With The Golden Gun has me attempting some groovy 60s moves whenever I hear it.

SheldonesqueWontTolerateFools · 24/06/2021 18:47

You could put ‘the wheels on the bus go round and round* as the background music to Danny boy sitting in the buff on a chair and it would be just fine I’m sure.

LifeIsAMotorway · 24/06/2021 18:48

Nah. It’s;

  1. Another Way to Die
  2. World is Not Enough
  3. A View to a Kill

(2 & 3 are interchangeable depending on mood).

Starts at 2.17 Glitterball

. Writing's on the Wall. Sam Smith. SPECTRE.

Shade17 · 24/06/2021 18:53

It’s not even the 10th best Bond theme

Sparklingbrook · 24/06/2021 18:54

Oh I thought the Sam Smith one was terrible. And her with the green hair. Hers too.

BlueBellsArePretty · 24/06/2021 18:54

The theme to Casino Royale You Know My Name by Chris Cornell is my fav.

Robin233 · 24/06/2021 18:55

Loved Sky Fall.

'We have all the time in the world '
From his majesty's secret service, if you can count that ....

MancyNitford · 24/06/2021 18:55

It's Live and Let Die without a doubt. Then The Living Daylights followed by A View to a Kill

Rainbowbrite82 · 24/06/2021 18:55

Tomorrow Never Dies! Although I agree with the PP who said it needed a stronger voice than Sheryl Crow's.

But also I love You Know My Name even though it doesn't really sound like a Bond song.

This this THIS!! God I miss him
LifeIsAMotorway · 24/06/2021 18:58

I also hold a torch for Live and Let Die, Nobody Does it Better (though I think that should be placed at the end of a corny horror movie) and Die Another Die despite the weird electro vibes to it.

Yes, Chris Connell is fab! Very 80s refreshed Bond!

bluebells

I’d forgotten that. It was an amazing song.

I now have an equal top three thanks to you and metheven and I’m stopping getting swayed now.

Unless someone gets the Stone Roses to sing ‘the wheels on the Aston Martin go round and round* or similar.

Jabbinell · 24/06/2021 19:00

No freeking way.
Licence to Kill - Gladys Knight &
You Know My Name - Chris Cornell (RIP)
are the best!

SheldonesqueWontTolerateFools · 24/06/2021 19:01

And Chris Cornell is much missed. Sad

Jabbinell · 24/06/2021 19:01

Golden Eye is also a gooden

ButYouJustPointedToAIIOfMe · 24/06/2021 19:05

Chris Cornell - RIP
His theme was amazing

EveryoneHatesKVN · 24/06/2021 19:11

Goldeneye…best song, best film!

Suzi888 · 24/06/2021 19:12

View to a kill

All time high

@ButYouJustPointedToAIIOfMe

Diamonds are forever is the hill I am prepared to die on.
Her voice in the Yello Rhythm Divine song was incredible. That would have been a great song for a Bond film
