I like Duffy, but I don't like this cover. Good grief, it sounds like an old-time Spiritual. Where's dat sweet chariot swingin' low? The grammatical correction is interesting, though: "if this ever-changing world which we live in. . ."

I never thought that I would say this, but all of a sudden even Axl Rose doesn't sound so terrible anymore...:#

A headline in the TVTimes the week Live and Let Die was premiered on UK TV.

Is that where you got it from TP?

What happened to the awesome chorus!?

I actually got the line from The Sun,a story about BJ Arnau ( Brenda Arnau) don't remember the year and i'm not going through my scrapbook collection to find out.
I'm just waiting for Daniel Craig to be seen shivering in a ski sceen so i can use.

Fair enough. But that means you must have been knocking around a bit circa 1973. I remember the same headline in the TVTimes - and I do have it in my scrapbook of the time!

LALD was the First Bond i was taken to see by my big brother, I think the sun may of used the line many years later as i think BJ Arnau or one of her kids was having drug problems and to pad the story out they mentioned about the producers liking the song but not McCartney's verson.
My first movie memory is of Bond, on holiday with my parents in Bray outside Dublin i can remember seeing OHMSS bits of it anyway as i was still in nappies and slept through most of it. But i always remembered the car chase in the snow and only remembered this when it was first shown on tv. and its nice to think that in a few years when i'm in a nursing home ( back in nappies ) and dribbling into my tea, I'll still be watching 007 ( it my eyes hold up ) and complaining to everyone that their not as good as they used to be.:) although I've started doing this already.

It's been months since I last commented on any forum and here I am listening to this versionof LALD.

Erm...I'm almost scared to say it but....I quite like it.

I'm not a Duffy fan, I'm 40 and I am a McCartney fan.

Not sure what's wrong with me but I think it's an approach that gives the song a different feel that I like.

Hey it could've been worse, she could have done that pathetic cat's wail of Axl Rose! (Now I reallllllly hate that version!)

Hello Positively... are you still running that indie cinema?

Now that's positively shocking...;)

Napoleon sir, indeed I am. I'm hoping for some older Bonds on the big screen later this year. I see FRWL (a fave of mine) will be available.

Sorry to "positively" shock you all with my musical taste!

I've heard good things about that cinema from a old uni friend I bumped into on Wigmore Street, she lives in Wellyn Garden City now.
