The melody and lyrics of WOTW were excellent. It was the vocals that didn't quite fit right.
My ranking of the Craig Bond songs thus far:
1. You Know My Name (A+)
2. No Time To Die (A)
3. Skyfall (B+)
4. Another Way To Die (C)
5. The Writing’s On The Wall (D-)
I'd leave alone,
Just goes to show,
That the blood you bleed is just the blood you own.
We were a pair,
But I saw you there,
Too much to bear,
You were my life but life is far away from fair.
Was I stupid to love you? Was I reckless to help?
What is obvious to everybody else?
But I've fallen for a lie,
You and I were on my side,
Fool me once, fool me twice,
How you dare the paradise, (thanks @AgentJamesBond007)
Now you'll never see me cry,
There's just no time to die.
I let it burn,
You're no longer my concern,
Faces from my past return,
Another lesson to learn,
But I've fallen for a lie,
You and I were on my side,
Fool me once, fool me twice,
How you dare the paradise,
Now you'll never see me cry,
There's just no time to die.
No time to die.
No time to die.
Fool me once, fool me twice,
Higher than the paradise,
Now you'll never see me cry,
There's just no time to die.
The "Higher than the paradise" line is definitely wrong, but I can't understand it. Instead of "than", there's something with a D sound.
EDIT: Fixed.
For me
1. Skyfall
2. You Know My Name
3. No Time to Die
4. The Writing's on the Wall
5. Another Way to Die
2. Skyfall
3. No Time to Die
4. Another Way to Die
5. The Writing’s on the Wall
YKMN and SF are nearly tied. Hoping my ranking of the songs ends up the same as my ranking of the movies (CR, SF, QOS, then SP is my order of preference now).
You hope it's worse than CR and SF? :P
+1
1. Skyfall
2. No Time to Die
3. You Know My Name
4. Writing's on the Wall
5. Another Way to Die
Well realistically I guess I meant :P obviously I want it to be the best Bond ever. I should have added realistically - I think it can top QoS and SP potentially, but seriously doubt it will top CR and SF. Just my own opinion.
Will it be produced differently for the film, more strings and horns, like "You Know My Name" was.
Interesting. I have to say I used to really dislike it a lot more, and it’s grown on me a bit, but I’m still not crazy about it. It has improved over WOTW for me though, which may end up slipping to the very bottom of the list for me.
That said, it's a beautiful song, haunting and chilling, with a great orchestration. The verses are probably the weaker parts, but the chorus is excellent and there's a good old fashioned buildup towards the end.
Thematically and lyrically, No Time To Die is the polar opposite of Writing's On The Wall. That song was a love song about how Bond found his true love. NTTD is a breakup song about how he should've never trusted that love in the first place.
Let's hope the film does a better job of Bond and Madeleine breaking up than SP did of them falling in love.
As for that ranking, I'd currently say
but that's maybe the rush of the moment. I'd place NTTD definitely below SF, but I'm not sure if I like YKMN better or not. WOTW and AWTD are miles below that top 3, for sure.
+1, 100%
I agree with all of this.
So do I
You are the Graeme Souness of the forum.
