    Well, I'd say You Only Live Twice. Also, the theme song to TMWTGG is probably my least favorite, so I'd consider that one a tie. . .

    The stand out for me is On Her Majesty's Secret Service. John Barry's theme is superb but the film is one of my least favourite's. Conversely, Rita Coolidge' All Time High (Octopussy) is one of my least favourite themes but the film is terrific entertainment.

    1. GoldenEye - love the theme, the last truly "Bondian" theme, in my view. Tina Turner did a great job with that song, it's right up there with Goldfinger and Diamonds Are Forever as my favourite Bond movie theme songs. I'm not such a big fan of the film, though.
    2. Diamonds are Forever, they are all I need to please me, they can stimulate and tease me, they won't leave in the night, I've no fear that they might desert me ....
    3. Moonraker - second worst Bond film, but Dame Shirley does it again with a wonderful theme song.

    Umm ... I think that's it for me.
