NDIB will never top a good old Bassey belter. C'mon, be a true fan.
NDIB is 300% Bondian. It's the pleasure of a universe reaching its maturity and taking time to be happy without taking itself too seriously. A sort of Magical Mystery Tour, compared to Sgt. Pepper (James Bond Theme, OHMSS).
The reason why DAF is 200% Bondian is mainly that Shirley Bassey is 300% Bondian.
DAF is even inferior to Moonraker IMO. The instrumental background is less inspired, and not always harmonious (between 0.35 and 0.50 or 1.25 and 1.40 for example: http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHG06wnos30). DAF is also fundamentally less joyful than Moonraker which offers a more ambitious role to Shirley's voice : giving a spirit to outer space (which it does better than 2001)
After all, I wouldn't mind any final ranking, it doesn't show the greatness of the songs but works as an indicator of the average preferences of a group of people. That's why I think in such a game we should spend more time giving arguments for or against a song than writing "A is better" "No, B is better" "No A is better"

Thank you Jarvio, like the last game, methods had to be used to progress things. In order to shorten this game... I will now institute the +1\-2 rule, that way we can make more headway in terms of songs.

NDIB is 300% Bondian. It's the pleasure of a universe reaching its maturity and taking time to be happy without taking itself too seriously. A sort of Magical Mystery Tour, compared to Sgt. Pepper (James Bond Theme, OHMSS).
The reason why DAF is 200% Bondian is mainly that Shirley Bassey is 300% Bondian.
DAF is even inferior to Moonraker IMO. The instrumental background is less inspired, and not always harmonious (between 0.35 and 0.50 or 1.25 and 1.40 for example: http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHG06wnos30). DAF is also fundamentally less joyful than Moonraker which offers a more ambitious role to Shirley's voice : giving a spirit to outer space (which it does better than 2001)
