Great track I hope they do the next title song, would give them a well deserved boost.

For example "Black Sea by Natasha Blume"
Annie Lennox would have been an amazing Bond singer!
:)
And then a decent song. With the decline of pop , its harder and harder to fill both criteria. The 70s and 80s is awash with great vocal talent. Annie Lenox a perfect example but now its very hard to find genuine talent. Cant beleive Im saying this but if they are looking for someone trendy but can actually sing, then Harry Styles? (plus also sing live to represent and promote Bond at gigs around the World)
Not suggesting this song but he can perform and I could see him working with Arnold to come up with something decent.
I think something like this would be just the thing for Craig's final outing. Like YKMN and AWTD, it's got rock anthem blood, yet it still has a bit of a ballad quality to it; only a more masculine sort of ballad, more like TB than WOTW. A nice blend to finish off an era.
I can't say these are 100% the sort of lyrics for a Bond theme, but then how many of the songs have nailed that part? The chorus is probably not so much a match:
We never should've left town in the first place
Now we gotta walk like they talk in the rat race
You keep your eyes on the prize if you want it all
But this part is:
You and I
The spider and the fly
Will meet where the shadows fall
I also like these bits:
She was there
Diamonds in her hair
Singing out a dead man’s song
and
Make room for the man who built the moon
He arrived on a knackered horse
Made no sound from the day he left town
No one said a word of course
The song is also reminiscent of John Murphy's score from Boyle's 28 DAYS LATER which nicely helps conceptualize it as the track for a Boyle Bond specifically.
"Wicked as it Seems", Keith Richards, Stephen K. Jordan.
It's just as wicked as it seems
Just run out of dreams
Better of two evils, babe
It's one time too much
Baby how can I say what's in my heart, what's in my heart
Come a long way, well since you beat it up
As wicked as it seems yeah
...
Just a two way street, but now it goes one way
And now for me there's no way out, one time
...
As wicked as it seems
...
So I soften the blow, so the bruises don't show
I've got the expertise
No broken necks
No broken hearts
Well, we used your deck
All I did was play the cards, now the check
Now I find it's not enough, it's not enough for me
Now you want to give, is not enough, not enough for me
As wicked as it seems
...
It's easy getting in
...
But it's a hard way out babe
...
