As Sir Sean says in some cuts of "Thunderball":
"Sorry old chap, better luck next time!"
High hopes for 2017/18.
EDIT: It's a grower. Smith is right. I think paired with DK's titles, it might be perfect.
My female manager Donata, also a Bond fan by the way, really loved the song on first listen. I was a bit....stunned....surprised :-).
Blah, blah, Yorkshire blah.
Overall it comes below A Man with a Golden Gun and that's saying something.
Thank you.
This proves what some of us were suspecting. That the instrumental is ridiculously good and suspenseful.
It's rather sad that SS's vocals has not added (quite the opposite in fact) to the lush instrumentals here. Sad indeed.
Let's hope (pray) that we get this instrumental version as the opener and his vocal version is included in the end credits, where it belongs imho.
What do you guys think of my analysis :-)??? I am not a fan of the song.....but the lyrics are spot on and very similar to Adele's lyrics of "SkyFall" in that it really tells part of the story of the film :-).
Nice analysis. I'd put in in spoiler tags though.
I'm sure you all are right but for some reason my ears keep messing it up :P
You're definitely right. That's why he was selected, undeniably, and his song was bound to be controversial, for a number of reasons.
This is excellent marketing for the general public. That was its purpose.
It may have reduced the enthusiasm of some die hards (certainly myself) today, but we've already bought our tickets (most of us anyway) so there's no point preaching to the converted. The film and the score can still save the day for me, and I look forward to both with bated breath.
It's really a guess.......but I'm starting to feel that the song "Writing's On The Wall" is actually the big spoiler. I think "SPECTRE" could also be the most romantic Bond film since "OHMSS". The song is evoking that 200%.

And it's happening again with me. This 'crooner' really starts becoming beautiful after more listenings. It's a very refined FRWL-esque love ballad. I think that can be the beauty of a song as well........a song that really needs to grow on you.......is a quality too?
Not only does it grow on you, but the melody is fantastic and the structure of the song is really well done.
Accompanied by this wonderful orchestral, very bondesque, almost Barry-esque music, Writing's On The Wall is already a classic (for me) and lightyears better than that dreary Skyfall song with that boring chorus and Adele screeching at the end.
Can't believe they finally got one proper classic Bond song for the Craig era. About bloody time!!
Half an hour ago I played it on our sound system for my wife, she absolutely loves it and can't believe how good it is.
you heard it twenty times? Cor blimey guvnor next thing you'll be saying is that your wife likes it as well..
Everyone has their own tastes...but really... a classic?
Skyfall had more soul in it but the strings and arrangements are better on this effort though.
We disagree quite a lot, but on this, no chance. I'm with you on this.
Agree 100% on both accounts.
Hug each other :-D. I bet it looks cute hehe
yeah..can you imagine I'll play it for my wife next...oh wait... :))
