For Die Another Day, it depends on the version. Main title is fine, end title... not so much.
"The Man with the Golden Gun" Lulu
"Moonraker" Shirley Bassey
"All Time High" Rita Coolidge
"The Living Daylights" A-Ha (I am still trying to figure out how this one-hit-wonder band got this gig)
Die Another Day
Another Way To Die
Writing's On The Wall
1.Die Another Day
2. Writing's on the Wall
3. Moonraker.
I actually like Another Way to Die, although, Alicia Keys is out of place here. The song is edgy and , to go against the tide,very Bondian. While it is somewhat disjointed in structure, it reflects where Bond is following the death of Vesper .
Die Another Day (the Vegas version)
001. Die another day (bad on every level)
big gap
002. Moonraker (bland, completely uninspired with lyrics that make no sense: What is a Moonraker??)
big gap
003. The writing on the wall (still not sure about it)
004. Another way to die (not as bad as many say)
005. The man with the golden gun (funny and catchy, fits the film pretty well)
006. From Russia with love (stylish but a bit soporific)
007. Tomorrow never dies (see FRWL)
DAD and AWTD aren't good but at least they don't play it safe and try something different and it doesn't harm things whereas TWINE is just there, doesn't get stuck in your head and find yourself humming it.
The band Garbage should have been left to compose the song themselves! They were a good choice, but given a poor song!
I've said this for years; I'm a big fan and they could have done so much better.
Blasphemy
All Time High tried to repeat the success of FYEO (and I suppose NDIB). It failed but that's what it seemed to be going for...
I'm pretty sure Surrender is written from the POV of Carver, not Bond.
The world definitely has turned upside down. I must be in an alternate dimension.
No kidding. TWINE is an awesome song!
