With a decent writer this could work, though I'm still skeptical.
Really longing for another theme in the style of You Know My Name though, that one really worked, though I reckon something a bit slower in pace might be more suitable looking at what we've seen of the film so far.

Like always they're the type of band that you need to give a few listens to before you can really get into the grove of their songs. I usually find 4-5 songs in each album that I end up really liking, for different reasons.
They keep changing their style and even though the distortion guitar is largely back again for this album, if classic Muse is the only acceptable "sound" for you, you'll likely be disappointed in this one too.
My favorite tracks on the new album are:
Defector, The Handler, Reapers, Dead Inside and Psycho. It's definitely a better album then The 2nd Law, Reapers in particular is fantastic.
I don't know who she is but I fully expect the themes for the Daniel Craig Bonds to continue their streak of being terrible. Won't stop me from seeing the film.
Good-to-outstanding movies, laughably bad title themes.
EDIT:
Since people are shouting out what they want, I say they just make some minor adjustments to this Pepe Deluxé track and be done with it.

Ellie is a good choice if the rumor is true. I love her.

after the insane success of Love Me Like You Do, even tho it was connected to that flop mess 50 Shades, I'd say it's a safe bet.

I like her but I can't see it; whereas Adele fit perfectly and I'm not a big fan of hers.
Bet it'll still be better than the shit theme for QoS.

They did an amazing job combining the classic Bond overture in with Adele's signature jazzy style. It's easily the most Bassey-esque Bond theme not sung by Bassey.

This. I need this.

Man, I can't tell if you're blasting E.G. Daily's recording career here.

I want the Weeknd. I mean, Earned It was basically a bond song

Hell yeah.
Yea, he would be amazing.
His song "Devil May Cry" for the Hunger Games movie was stellar as well.
Dead Inside is a straight up Bond song even the lyrics fit perfectly. A man being trained by government to become a cold killer who can manipulate women while looking like a normal guy
Not a bad shout to be honest.

You've got your list on upside down.
No.
I thought it was absolute trash. The chorus completely ruined it. A real shame to as Adele certainly has the voice to carry a great Bond song, if she'd had a great one to sing.

Completely agree. Instrumental is amazing but those lyrics are absolute garbage.
I see Goulding as more of an EDM vocalist than a typical singer. That's why I don't think this is a great fit. Would have preferred Lana Del Rey or The Weeknd
Not a fan of her voice for a bond theme .... needs something more ...epic.
Since the blackest they can go is Alicia Keys and Adele can't make 32 theme songs, I vote for Florence girl....
Or maybe they already consider Beyonce white enoght ? *bleach.gif* xD
That would be epic. Sadly never going to happen

At least you can talk. Who are you?
She's a good choice, she has a really nice voice, suited to a Bond theme imo. But given the choice, I'd gone Lana Del Rey.

Or do you mean just nowadays? I mean, Michael G. Wilson's been producing these things since the '80s.
What on earth are you talking about? There have been loads of black artists who have done Bond music. The most famous Bond theme of all time was sung by a black woman.

not a fan...
she's got 1 solid song, and the other one that suppose to be awesome is just the same lyrics repeated over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.

Well I dunno. "20 years and 7 movies since the last one" puts us in a weird argument of whether Alicia Keys is "black enough." Otherwise we're talking 2 movies, and then a pretty decent history of black singers.
Fair enogh ... also sad that Alicia keys deserved a full song, not a shit duet with Jack White that has a voice that has NOTHING to do with james bond themes
All you have to do is say some weird shit a bunch and the title of the film and you've got yourself a good Bond track.

Fix'd
In the future, please, refrain from making that type of mistakes.
You are all crazy. Skyfall is an awful movie with an awful contrived plot that makes no sense when even a little thought is put into it. CR is a nice movie but overly long for what it accomplishes, the poker scenes are disjointed and don't flow as a coherent story.
Whereas Quantum has the single best sequence in all the Bond movies. It has a plot that makes sense, characters have clear motivations and it deals with modern ideas of extreme corporatism which seeks to corrupt legitimate government.
