Licence to Kill

The Spy who Loved me

Live and Let Die

Goldfinger.

Not necessarily in that order .

 

[Stephen Jay Hawkings]

Apart from View to a Kill my least favourite run of themes. I was never a fan of Brosnan and Dalton so I think there is a link there . I would go with the early themes and I like these later ones with the Craig films .

Yeah if you don't like the films you probably automatically won't like the themes, those films are the ones I grew up with, but I do also prefer the likes of Duran Duran and A-Ha to Shirly Bassey anyway so that's more of a reason.

As for the Craig ones, I love the Chris Cornell one, but I barely remember the rest.

@Melon Donkey I know you like you podcasts ,and there is a two parter on BBC Sounds telling stories behind the Bond theme tunes. Very interesting and a decent listen.

I always really like the Tomorrow Never Dies theme, Sheryl Crow I think performed it.

 

[Stephen Jay Hawkings]

I forgot one, and it's probably my favourite theme of all of them - On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

Yes.
And the classic James Bond theme we all know is the actual theme for Dr No as opposed to just 'incidental' music.

 

[The Fear]

This one for me.

A little niche I reckon for this forum, but there’s a DJ called Chris Lorenzo who was doing a set on the radio earlier and signed off with UP THE VILLA. Never heard of him, but I like him.

I see Adele has deviated from her normal stuff and come out with a piano based ballad for her new single.

Yes. More whinging and whining about her dreadful life what with the £130 million she is worth. Bore off . You got divorced . So what.

I'm listening to Clifford T Ward who was my 3rd form teacher at Bromsgrove high school. He died a few years ago.

Heard this earlier for the first time in ages.
Banging .

And if you listen . The title of the track is Hey Boy Hey girl . Yet in the song it’s sung Hey girl Hey boy
Interesting .

Great excuse to put these 3 lovely songs back up on here again!

In the days of no one sticking a fucking mobile phone in the air and instead just enjoying the gig..

I love Chris Isaak, I think he's hugely underrated. Great voice, and he's always pulled it off live. Talent.
