    It could be the perfect time for Lana; the film’s title, No Time To Die , is custom made for her.

    I'd pick Rick Astley for No Time To Die.

    I know Eon will go with someone more popular - fair enough, it's all about raising the profile of the film so they pick the most current hot singer/group - but Astley's Rick Rolling Youtube meme brought him back into pop culture (half a billion views for Never Gonna Give You Up!). And more to the point, the guy has an awesome voice!

    New song (the best bit is at 1 min 52 seconds onwards!). I love Michael Buble's voice but Astley has even more power. His voice really does suit a Bond song.

    This is from Liam’s new album; know what we do about the plot of No Time To Die, with a bit of tweaking, this would have made a great title song.
    Listen to the lyrics.

    Many of us have suggested them before. They were offered TWINE, but declined. As much as I love the Garbage song, it is a huge missed opportunity and what if.

    Much like GE. As much as I love that song, I wonder what The Rolling Stones could have done, as they were the first choice.

    Hooverphonic (Belgium)



    I sugest this song as extra title song for NTTD or for doing title song of Bond 26. For next year there wil make new track for Europ Song Contest 2021 who partly was canceld this year.

    I second Hooverphonic.
    Anger Never Dies could be a Bond theme and title.

    I have always thought Goldfrapp can conjure up a Magnificent Bond theme....their track 'Pilots' is so Bondian and Barryesque. I love this Band.



    Goldfrapp even said they were paying Homage to Barry's Bond Themes with the song. I think they were initially set to work with David Arnold on CR, but were told that James Bond is about to change.

    Off the top my head...

    Guns 'N' Roses (in their heyday)
    Queen
    Muse
    Faith No More (Angel Dust period)
    Within Temptation (They have that operatic edge to them)
    Lacuna Coil

    As we were only saying last night when you were experiencing the new project, these guys will always be one of the most significant, the ones that got away more than once.

    Glad I could introduce to them properly and much more to come.

    As mentioned many times, the most obvious missed opportunity.

    Listening to Michael Kiwanuka's fantastic 2019 album Kiwanuka (again), only reminds me how much I want him to do a Bond theme:

    I agree @Torgeirtrap Kiwanuka is a potential Bond theme artist. Maybe him being British has something to do with his style of singing that suits a Bond theme.
