Ladies First should replace the Bond theme in all future films. Make it the title song for every film too.

That's handy. It'll be happening as NTTD is released in cinemas.

Ta. Interesting information. I can't wait to hear what Zimmer has done. A new theme for Bond? Very interesting. If Zimmer does a good job, I hope he returns for the next one so we can hear more of this new theme.
In terms of the Monty Norman theme, these days I only like to hear it in the gunbarrel sequence and subtle bits of it in other parts of the film. I think it's too well known now to play it in it's full length and all it's glory for action sequences. It takes me out of the film. Oh, at the end when the credits are rolling is okay but I still prefer what Barry did for TLD, having a different end song (with a vocalist) to the main theme song for the end credits.
Zimmer is no John Barry or John Williams but he does come up with some very memorable, catchy tunes.

edit: OK so it's not much near the end...around 11 mins before the end. Says he will still continue working with Fukunaga (when he worked on NTTD it was just him and Cary) and that the situation was amicable in the end and that 'everyone just had to do what they had to do'. And to a certain degree he was sensing that he wasn't gonna stick with the project...
Excellent, thanks. Seems to start around 1hr 39m
Cor these guys are a bit waffly. Not sure I'll listen to this podcast again :D
Doubt it happens but would love to one day hear his score for the film.
It would be cool to hear his suite at least. That happens from time to time: a composer will release to their fans music that the studio isn't planning on releasing officially.
One thing composers tend to do with discarded works is just use it on a different project. John Barry ended up leaving THE GOLDEN CHILD due to creative differences, but would later use that material he wrote for that film and utilize them in THE SPECIALIST.
Not a big fan of it either but then again I prefer it when they use the main guitar riff a-la Goldfinger.
I wonder if it's the GoldenEye videogame that makes them want to use the fanfare? :D
Yeah it’s completely meh. Hopefully not a sign.

Interesting. I didn't have that reaction. I could tell a difference; Zimmer's track is richer, a little more emphasis on strings. And Marr's guitar has an almost dreamlike, hypnotic quality to it.
