All in all a very good song that doesn't try to emulate Shirley Bassey.
So my question for you: Will it be a hit?
So my question for you: Will it be a hit?
Even if it was awful it'd be a hit because Adele is singing it.
I know. Jack Black is considerably larger but not very funny IMO!
Tenacious D for Bond 24? ;)
You won't be disappointed :)
Are you sure? :/
I'm pretty sure if she hasn't had her baby, she won't do it. And it's unknown how far into the pregnancy she is.
It's not due to officially land online for another couple of hours, but apparently some international radio stations are already playing Adele's "Skyfall" and, as such, here it is in all its moody glory.
With arguably the best voice in the music business right now, Adele just crushes this. Sure, the orchestra helps and we love the nod to that iconic 007 theme, but this sucker is all Adele and completely old-school Bond. It doesn't try to do anything new or snazzy or hip -- it simply relies on Adele's voice to carry the haunting lyrics to another level.
And speaking of those lyrics, here they are ...
This is the end
Hold your breath and count to ten
Feel the earth move and then
Hear my heart burst again
For this is the end
I've drowned and dreamed this moment
So overdue, I owe them
Swept away, I'm stolen
Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Or face it all together
Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Or face it all together
At skyfall
Skyfall is where we start
A thousand miles and poles apart
When worlds collide, and days are dark
You may have my number, you can take my name
But you'll never have my heart
Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Or face it all together
Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Or face it all together
At skyfall
Where you go I go
What you see I see
I know i'll never be without the security
Are your loving arms
Keeping me from harm
Put your hand in my hand
And we'll stand
Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Or face it all together
Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Or face it all together
At skyfall
Let the sky fall
We will stand tall
At skyfall
Still don't like the production though :-P ;-)
Let the sky fall, there's already something you like about the new movie ;)
That's definitely how they'll use it. Just like the Bourne theme at the end of Ultimatum.
I was picturing the scene in my head as I listened to it.
Should be good.
I could definately picture the instrumental chorus being played as Bond is driving through the Scottish countryside..

AAHHHH stop tempting me! I wanna wait till it premieres on Adele's website lmao I played the song for 2 seconds and went "NO!" and stopped it lol
Someone else said that.
No, the only thing they have in common is that they both have slower tempos. Other than that, they both have a somewhat melancholy tone I suppose, but that's about it.
