It's a great instrumental.
Adele starts on 19 in the weak of 13 October 2012 and that was only 3 weaks before the release and 8 days after single was released.. She stay in the list for 20th weaks, but then Top 40 was stil part of more fames radio channel.
No Time To Die is her 5th single in Top 40 with Everything I Wanted stay 12 weaks in it, with 7th place as maximum, Bad Guy 16 weaks/9th place.
I don't know why this gif is relevant but I love it so much :P
When I was 18, my choice for Bond was for Timothy Dalton to continue.
Oh well.
Michael B Jordan is indeed an excellent actor. However, there are countless excellent actors in the world, who I would NOT consider right for Bond. Robert De Niro for instance.
I don't think that would be a good direction for the Bond films. These aren't the "Young James Bond Chronicles."
I'm not opposed to Elba or Jordan as supercool spies; I don't even mind the flashback thing if there's a good script. I'm sure a pretty nice spy flick series can be woven around that idea.
But then there's James Bond, which is something else. We all have good ideas from to time, but the desire to take them all to the Bond series is something I don't understand.
I'm so glad. :)
The thing that bugs me is some of the lyrics don't feel that fitting, but it's nowhere near as bad as Smith's effort on that front. Wish there was more melody to it too, that's pretty much my only requirement with Bond songs, as long as there's a big melody they can be what they like. But to be fair it got better as it went on on that front, there's a few things they could weave throughout the score (the guitars in the build up to the chorus, or the strings that kick in straight after it) so I'm okay with it.
Overall it's hardly YKMN (still hoping we get that over the credits, full circle come on) but I think it's better than AWTD and WOTW.
One of my big hopes for NTTD, that would be such a classy touch. As well as a small tribute to Sir Roger
Having YKMN over the closing credits? Great suggestion!
That song still gives me goosebumps!
Lol maybe they can just do the whole CR titles sequence again at the end, and at the end when the shadow walks out revealing Bond, it’s Nomi instead. :P
Heh! ‘007 status confirmed’ :)
Direct nod for Sir Roger, subtle nod to Cornell, and overall bringing the Craig era full circle.
The difference is Surrender was never used anywhere else. I highly doubt YKMN is making another appearance.
What would people think of there was a rendition of “Nobody Does It Better” with the memoriam, over the end credits? Might work, with the soft opening accompanying a photo of Roger, and then into the credits when the song picks up.
That said, Nobody Does It Better is a nice idea too. It's signature enough as a Bond song. I'll be happy enough if it's not the Bond theme for the end credits this time.
We’ll see in April!
Very true, but it’s the first release since. We’ll see.
All very good points. Crazy that Fleming didn't get one, but maybe memoriums weren't a big thing back then.
Makes me really wonder what they'll do for Rog, if anything at all. And what the backlash might be like among Bond fans if they don't.
There are only two instances where the films did a dedication. Derek Meddings got one because he actually worked on GE. Even though Cubby had no involvement with TND, it was produced by his children so of course they would have a dedication for him.
Otherwise, EON doesn't typically do dedications. Terence Young. Richard Maibaum. Maurice Binder. John Barry. Harry Saltzman. Nothing. Zero.
The only thing that sets Moore apart is that actually played James Bond, so if anyone were to ever get any acknowledgement after passing it's him. If he doesn't get one, then we can pretty much expect to never see a dedication for any of the other Bonds or just about anyone else. Maybe Michael G. Wilson, since his sister and son would want that.
