Good point
So I don't see a "new" rumour here about Ellie Goulding, just Smith refreshing the old rumour about her.
You mean like Die Another Day and Another Way to Die.
That Spy MTS video could actually pass as a Bond theme. A shame we can't travel back in time seven years and make this the QOS theme.
But to be honest as long as it's not Madonna , Justin Bieber or One Direction i don't mind who does it.
If he was telling the truth, why should... ?
I'd rather have No Good About Goodbye. I don't like the theme song from Spy, it sounds too obviously a Bond song to the point it sounds like a parody. Still better than AWTD, of course.
Geography she is made is what i like moost from Goulding her clip.
Fit better mabey with darker music or some classic from Lindsey Stirling
Other example of Lindsey Stirling, can be consider to work with Sam Smith..
QoS had an Amy Winehouse theme attached and when that didn't came to pass they hastily recruited Jack White who therefore had full creative control over the track just so they have anything to play over the credits. Both White and Adele are btw both independent artist signed under the umbrella of the Beggar's Group.
Imho Sam Smith never made any sense. I have the notion that the one's who decide are mostly Babs and since QoS also Daniel. Both don't have the worst taste in music and don't seem to particularily care for commercial value with the artist they pick. They rather have the habit of choosing an artist who has already proven his merits and may even be a little past his prime. Smith is currently nothing more than a hugely successful one hit wonder and furthermore I could never imagine Daniel Craig listen to that whiny whimp. Smith is a solely commercial choice without any artistical merit at this point so I don't believe he's in the running.
When they keep up with the schedules of the last movies a next step for the actors - especially Daniel - is the shooting of some PTS scenes. And since the PTS should be therefore already be outlined at this point I'm sure at least a demo of the solicited song exists. A British Alternative Rock act would fill the mold easily so I'd give the AM rumor far more credit than the Smith one.
I'm just guessing of course but just have that sinking feeling he got it.
I'm aware you were not suggesting it, rather that the premise of my post didn't depend on the accuracy of the statement to express my opinion.
I much prefer the TB instrumental, much better without his warbling over it.
Bassey, Jones, do we really need to dig up these old fossils?
...in lieu of Smith??? Yes any day.

Disappointed I find her voice annoying, not the calibre of artist the film required.
Yeah, his famous performance at the BAFTA's. Whereas Dame Shirley Bassey needs to push her vocals at her age, Sir Jones still sounds amazing. I think it would be a complete coup if he was chosen. And I do think it could have the potential to become a hit, similar to Adele's "Skyfall".
Leaves me with one question though: Where is Paul Epworth?? Let's not forget that he composed and arranged the "Skyfall" song as well. Also he won the Oscar. And now Adele doesn't come back, I really would love Paul Epworth to return for "SPECTRE".
Meh, still not convinced.
Or because her and Sam Smith are friends, they're pulling a little joke to draw the attention away from him for a bit.
This is basically it for me. She's recording an album too, gets her a little free press in the build up to that and like you say, simultaneously draws attention away from Smith.
