    Song or not a song, we have three contenders left. Let's not make this personal.

    Nothing personal I only said that he best song is now known, which is factual and by no means an insult to the reaming two themes.
    I think your distinction is valid @saintmark, GF has indeed won best song and is now battling OHMSS for best film-specific title/main-theme track, also taking into account non-title themes such as NDIB, ATH etc.
    However this game, as we are all quite aware by now, is about "best music selection played over opening credits", if I may be so anal ;) so DN's JB theme opening music, and FRWL's FRWL-JBTheme instrumental medley get to play too.

    Precisely.

    I was amused by the threads' name best Song and could see only one song left, as such I remarked that. And then got some grieve.

    I love this thread - not just for the position jostling but the comments that find their way among the votes! :D

    How about, DN should've had a handicap of minus votes at the start as it appears in every film in one way or another where no other does? :-\"

    I feel it is a fair observation to state that GF, (as much as I don't particularly like this outing of a very OTT Bassey) is the only remaining Bond title track with an artist singing!

    There's just something menacing about OHMSS that I'm addicted to playing over and over that I'll never tire of.

    No it shouldn't have. It's a title song like any other.

    The Bond theme over the DN title sequence is one of the weakest ones and I have come to the conclusion that it does not have to be my favorite title piece just because it is the Bond theme. I always disliked the trombone (muted trumpet?) sound when the guitar riff sets in and also find the overall sound quality lacking.

    I always thought that this game would end like this:

    3. GF
    2. OHMSS
    1. DN


    For a while there it didn't seem like it was going to go that way but now we're on the right track...
