Rumor is Ellie Goulding

I feel it's kind of a missed opportunity not to go back to Adele, honestly. You don't have to switch up every film.

there's plenty of other great musicians out there and no reason whatsoever to stick with her. She did great, now it's someone else's turn imo
 
Oh. That's where the Radiohead thing comes from.

Basically some dink bet 15,000 pounds on Radiohead scoring the gig, and so bookies suspended betting on the assumption nobody would actually bet 15k like that without having inside knowledge.

There's plenty of reasons. She sang a multi-award winning, multi-platinum theme song.

She basically could have been 21st century Shirley Bassey with this shit. Seems a shame to not even pursue the possibility.

Ellie Goulding has been heavily hinting she is doing the theme on Twitter the last few months.

I would bet good money its her.

Oh and best Bond themes? My personal top 5 (not counting orchestral ones):
1. A View to a Kill
2. Live and Let Die
3. Goldfinger
4. Skyfall
5. Nobody Does It Better/The Spy Who Loved Me

Basically the Roger Moore era shits over the rest when it comes to fantastic themes. I mean how can you top Duran Duran and Paul McCartney?
 
It's top 5 for me:

Goldeneye
Skyfall
Goldfinger
Die Another Day
You Know My Name

And the one that doesn't get enough love, Everything or Nothing.

Hopefully it's a good one. The Craigs Bonds have only had one miss, theme wise.

Skyfall is great if you don't ever watch the movie. If you watch the movie it becomes terrible the moment it's revealed Skyfall is the name of Bond's Ranch.

Nobody Does It Better was always my favourite.

Although the Propellerheads' OHMSS is the best thing Bond-related, so well done.

We already got the best Bond theme of the year 'Love Crime'.

But seriously I wouldn't mind Adele again at all, Goulding has a unique voice so I'll give that but the song would have to be very catered to her vocal abilities.

It really is the only thing that went right on the most consistent basis during his run

Live and Let Die
Nobody Does it Better (the best Bond Theme ever)
For Your Eyes Only
A View to a Kill

Those are all top 10 Bond themes. 3/4ths of them are probably top 5, you're right.

But yeah, you kinda have to discount the orchestral themes, because nothing's beating the On Her Majesty's theme. Except for maybe the Propellerheads remix. But that's kinda cheating.

Heh. I was thinking that as it started to play.
 
My top 5 Bond themes.

Goldfinger
The World Is Not Enough
You Know My Name
Skyfall
For Your Eyes Only

Craig Bond's been batting 3 for 4 on Bond themes though.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Let the SkyFoe,
when it crumbows,
we will stand toe,
through it all, together.

And then there's the chanting.

More like

Let the sky foal
When it cwumboes
We will Stan toe

Hope this is good. Might hold out on listening until the film is released. Probably not though.

No longer boycotting the Wolfenstein franchise
It should be FKA twigs, and she gets to direct the opening titles, too.

They should just re-use Skyfall's theme but change 'skyfall' to Spectre.

Let the Spectre
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
Let the Spectre
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
At Spectre
