I'm really wondering what some of your favourite musical moments from the series are. It can be a theme song for a particular film such as Nobody Does It Better or another composition. For example, the following piece from Thunderball is my favourite. It's called Switching the Body.

    Escape from Piz Gloria and Gumbold's Safe from OHMSS.
    Afghanistan Plan from TLD.
    Bond Back in Action Again from Goldfinger.

    Despite my reservations about some parts of the score, I love the first two minutes of The Goldeneye Overture.

    White Knight, Hamburg Break In, Backseat Driver from TND.
    Night at the Opera from Quantum of Solace.

    Oh God, there's so much more!

    So many great ones to choose.
    The James Bond theme obviously as it appears just about everywhere although being pedantic it is a theme tune so I go Escape from Piz Gloria and anything on the Thunderball soundtrack.

    Doesn't matter I'm afraid. Both threads are just too similar. Multiple choices can be mentioned over there as well. ;-) The hosts won't throw us out.
