    Did you notice they played it (as Jane Fonda's intro) at the Oscars this year, as if it had won?

    All Time High definitely. We Have All The Time In The World is very romantic but I think it's more tragic than romantic when put into the context of the film it's from.

    'We Have All The Time In The World' is by far the most romantic of the Bond song...

    Definitely "We Have All the Time in the World".

    Also, I always thought that "The World is Not Enough" was rather romantic in a creepy way.

    How can The World Is Not Enough Garbage theme song be romantic ? Obviously missing something there

    We have all the time in the World has to be up there as mentioned, even For Your Eyes Only by Sheena Easton, although I'm no fan of the song, Sinatra's You Only Live Twice could be included, as with Monro's From Russia With Love, but apart from All Time High as an extra, struggling now to come up with any further tracks. There's been a bit of everything in the 50 years of Bond and all 23 releases now

    Easily, for me, ''we have all the time in the world" by John Barry.

    I'd say it's more sensual than romantic. That's an important difference to make ;)

    I'm a huge fan of Garbage and my first thought was "Of course - why didn't I think of TWINE?".

    Romantic is in the eye of the beholder. TWINE has a dark sensuality to it (like many of Garbage's slower songs) but that's something that many people *would* find romantic. An old girlfriend of mine found this song incredibly romantic - as she said, romance is all about just two people who hold together no matter what; it's just them against the whole world and nothing can break them apart. And the fact that everyone is against them just pushes them closer together, which is even more...romantic!

    (It must sound like she'd be really rooting for Elektra and Renard to have a happy ending!)

    I find Arnold's orchestration to be a bit too much (he turns the Bond-y-ness up to 11; IMHO he should have trusted the song more) but TWINE is easily my favourite title song from the Brosnan years.
