    A better Bond theme than I've heard in a long time. Billie gets a lot of static from edgy teen types that I just don't grok. Making catchy or soulful music that is also dark, playful, and holds a melody is no small feat.

      I really like this new theme as well, but Adele's Skyfall theme was pretty great too, IMO.

      Sam Smith's Spectre theme was admittedly pretty mediocre, but the only really crappy one from recent memory for me was Jack White and Alisha Keys' Quantum of Solace theme (and I say that despite being a huge fan of both as artists). However immediately before that, Chris Cornell's Casino Royale theme was pretty awesome.

      Nothing will ever top Goldfinger for me though. It's just so damn iconic, and Shirley Bassey's voice is unmatched. And even at 75 years old she still absolutely crushes it:

        Yeah, but they don't quite reek of death and despair like Billie does - her vibe is a great fit for a Bond finale. My benchmark for Bond themes goes wayyy back to Diamonds are Forever and Live and...

          Yeah, agreed there. This track is definitely a picture perfect fit for the Craig run finale. p.s. I think I was still in the process of editing my comment when you replied (bad habit, sorry!),...

          p.s. I think I was still in the process of editing my comment when you replied (bad habit, sorry!), since I added in a mention of my personal benchmark for Bond themes being Goldfinger. <3 Shirley Bassey! :)
