I liked the one from Goldeneye 007. According to your article it's performed by Tina Turner. It is probably my favorite theme and movie from that series.

Being into rock music, I really liked Chris Cornell's song for Casino Royal. But I do remember tapping my foot quite a lot to Duran Duran's "A View To A Kill" back in the 80s. Bon, Simon Le Bon.

Being a pretty big fan of Garbage, I really liked "The World Is Not Enough" back from 1999. Probably my favourite. Gotta agree with Rob about Chris Cornell's song, it was pretty rockin.

"
Live and Let Die" by Paul McCartney & Wings is closely related to my adolescence back in 1973. This was the very first JB movie I ever saw and a revelation. Since then I'm Paul McCartney's big fan. Not to forget the whole soundtrack written by George "Fifth Beatles" Martin.

I actually liked "You Know My Name" more than the article's author, but I do agree that "Surrender" was a ton better than "Tomorrow Never Dies." Personally, I'm torn between three of them and two of them are on that list. I really like "We Have All The Time In The World" and "Nobody Does It Better," but "Live and Let Die" always struck a positive chord with me as well, though it really doesn't work well as a Bond song. Frankly, my least favorite is "Die Another Day," or as I like to call it, "The Clapping Song."

"Another Way to Die," Jack White and Alicia Keys One problem is that White and Keys have no audible chemistry. Another is that their song has no chorus. But mostly it's that lo-fi guitar fuzz suits Bond about as well as a rented tux.
This guy obviously never listened to the song because it has a chorus and they have chemistry in that they sound very similar.

Goldfinger. All that new stuff is just humbug compared to Shirley.

Maybe he only heard the movie version which was shortened a lot.

My favorite's always been Live and Let Die. The Living Daylights and View to a Kill are also frequent in my playlists because their 80s sound is awesome.
Be excellent to each other

Live and Let Die. My Mom liked Roger Moore and took me to see the film when it came out. Scared the living daylights out of me! But I think this is a great song and it's on my ipod - ironically it is the only post-Beatles McCartney I like (I always preferred Lennon).
