New Bond Theme
« on: October 04, 2008, 09:50:58 AM »
Really not sure if I like it. It has the classic bond hallmarks but also sounds like a White Stripes/Raconteurs song. It may well grow on me.

I think I hate being indecisive.

I like it, then again I like most White Stripes and Raconteurs stuff as well :) That video has pretty much the dullest sound ever though :\

Not my favorite Bond tune but Jack White has an excellent taste in guitars.

The riff is pure Bond, but the song itself isn't

Miss Winehouse should have made the song... I don't care how hard guys would have to work to get her in "decent condition" to compose and sing it... she would brake it in million parts PERIOD

I absolutely agree. I can't think of a better person to do a bond theme than her. With that said I do like the track, and its forced me to buy an Alicia Keys album, something I never thought my CD rack would see.

I love Amy Winehouses voice & think she has a great amount of talent, however if she isn't in any kind of state to have done the song, then don't get here to do it. Personally Duffy could have done just as well.


I like Duffy
