OK, what are your favorite 007 theme songs? They can be either from a James Bond movie or video game.

Here are mine, not ranked in any order.

 

Kerli- When Nobody Loves You (Quantum of Solace PS3/X360 game opening theme) 

Spoiler

 

 

Patti LaBelle- If You Asked Me To (Licence To Kill end credits)

  Celine Dion's cover is very good, but I prefer the arrangement and vocals in Patti LaBelle's original.

Gladys Knight- Licence To Kill (Licence To Kill opening theme)

Spoiler

 

 

The Pretenders- Where Has Everybody Gone (The Living Daylights)

Spoiler

 

 

Sam Smith- Writing's On The Wall (Spectre)

Tina Turner- GoldenEye

Adele- Skyfall

From the games, Everything or Nothing.

 

 

From the movies apart from GoldenEye I liked The World is Not Enough's theme

 

 

That said it's a shame there aren't anymore James Bond games. I'm sure the right developer could make a fun one with all sorts of gadgets you could use.

My Top 5


:platinum:  Tina Turner - “GoldenEye”

:gold:  k.d. lang - “Surrender” (from Tomorrow Never Dies)
:silver:  Sheryl Crow - “Tomorrow Never Dies”

:bronze:  Patti LaBelle - “If You Asked Me To” (from Licence to Kill)

:hidden:  Gladys Knight - “Licence to Kill”


If Laura Branigan had done “All Time High” as was originally intended, that would’ve been up there for sure. But instead we got Rita Coolidge’s lacklustre version thanks to Barbara Broccoli! Damn you!

You guys forgot the best one :

 

 

 

Good pick. This film has some of the best music from the entire series. This one in particular:
 

 

Some other of my favourites pieces from various Bond films:
 

 

 

 

(particularly 3:10 and onwards)

 

I'm more of a fan of the music inside the films than the theme tunes themselves. John Barry's stuff for the series was nothing short of magnificent. Bill Conti's stuff for "For your eyes only" was also excellent.

 

If I was to say my favourite actual theme tune though it's a tough one between Diamonds are forever, Live and let die, Tomorrow never dies or The Living Daylights. Probably The Living Daylights.
