I only heard song twice on radio on the same day in second weak and once more before the delay, count views are disapointed already before the delay. But song end in the list and believe me that's already much more then Cornell,Alicia Keys, Sheryl Crow and Garbage. Adele was first since Madonna and since then Smith and Billie end in it too.
Mabey she wil end in Top 2000 with movie's new release date if song get restart and enough people voted in to the list. Adele stil end it, whyle Smith no longer end in it. For long time now Duran Duran are also no longer in the list. It is also possible she can make comeback in top 40 and there wil weak count futher she end.
I love the song.
Remember the main titles will be designed to work and sync with the song. They won't simply swap it for another song. Come November they will probably re-release Eilish's theme song. I also love the song and suspect it will be even more effective when we view it with the titles and after the long and, I'm betting, emotionally powerful pre-title scenes.
Their 'Spectre' song is also bloody good.
The songs and soundtrack Thom Yorke did for the Suspiria remake are amazing.
Very Stylish Pic....Looks like a Rock Band's Photoshoot. But in this case it's the BOND BAND....with Eilish as it's lead Singer. Looking forward to this song's Title Design & Music Video....am sure it's going to be something special....I wonder if that's Johnny Marr in Silhouette down the stairs or most likely the Photographer....Greg Williams perhaps.
I do like Man of War, but Spectre really fits the film for me. I love the crazy strings stuff: it just feels wonderfully sort of perverse and epic in a Bond way. I'd love a version of the film that had that on the titles!
Agreed
Possible somebody liked it or/and Universal ask them play song 6-8 weaks go when there filming it. It take only 4-5 weaks before it is on tv. Official over 16 days the movie have been released before the delay.
Of course that can be only one.. Daniel Craig aka James Bond him self..
B-)
"Man of War" was so good. Had that been an original piece instead of something originating from the OK Computer sessions I'm confident that would have been the title song for SP. I actually only listened to "Spectre" for the first time a few days ago and honestly felt it was underwhelming. Not sure I feel it's better or worse than "Writing's On the Wall (which I neither love or hate, it's pretty much just there).
It's too bad though, because Radiohead were Sam Mendes' personal choice. I'm not aware of any other Bond director getting a voice in what title artist is chosen.
EDIT: Actually, having said that, it sort of does apply to the film as well for me.
This is really great thanks for sharing. It makes me appreciate Billie's song a lot more
Oh sure: I know clever people have fitted it on- but I want an actual copy of the film with that edited in! And with the nice fan version of the gunbarrel too :)
He is incredibly irritating, but it is interesting how close he gets. But then if he has the chord structure and lyrics I have no idea how hard that is.
Well now that's rather fascinating: that Zimmer had approval and was part of the process of actually choosing a song. Very interesting.
Such a terrific feature! I'm surprised in all the coronavirus chaos that a genuine great piece of Bond news is being missed here!
I guess that Ed Sheeran, Dua Lipa, Jorja Smith all submitted their songs. But they must have always wanted Billie.
We know already that Fukunaga had his mind set on her performing the song from the outset.
Also, the New Yorker article has some great photos:
In episode of a quize (recorderd longer then a month a go) there was quistion about another virus with weird enough a litle note about Corona virus as and intro and there was quistion about and Billie Eilish was the anser and with intro that she did title song for the new Bond movie.
Of course every music track with Die, Death, Kill in title wil now very heavy now to lissen to.
I trust Zimmer. Plus i remember the lukewarm reaction to YKMN, its only now that its considered a solid entry into the Bond canon because it blended well and enhanced the experience!
I think I prefer this to Sam Smith's Writing's on the Wall. I'm one of the rare people who like WOTW, but I must say that Radiohead's 'Spectre' is pretty awesome. It's better than Man of War, IMO.
1. is that a hanged man necklace Billie is wearing in the picture posted by @pierce2daniel?? Does anyone else notice that? Any chance it foreshadows what might be coming up in No Time to Die? I already had a theory about this, that Bond is on the verge of jkilling himself at the start of the movie, but M sends him a message on Whatsapp which Bond which reads which is saying "This is No Time to die, Bond.". This stops Bond from killing himself as he feels duty to, complete his new mission.
2. The song is a hot mess, no insporation at all BUT... and this leads me on to number 3...
3. i expect will Hans Zimmer weave the theme song into the score.
