This might seem an odd topic, but I'm interested in hearing your best stalker song suggestions which could be adapted or could feature in a film version of John Gardner's Never Send Flowers (1993). Please could you also post the lyrics to see how they fit in with the serial killer stalker plot of the 1993 Bond novel. Here are my two suggestions to get the ball rolling:

Paparazzi by Lady GaGa
Every Breath You Take by The Police

Can we come up with any more suitable stalker/serial killer title song suggestions?

The flowers calling card motif would make an interesting titles sequences, methinks. Flowers exploding from guns, being obliterated, falling to the ground aftyer an explosion! Would be interesting to see something like this posted up onto You Tube! No nakled girls though, a la Casino Royale's main titles sequence. This is classy James Bond. I can but dream...

    As soon as I saw the title I was going to say Every Breath You Take. That song can so easily be laughed at for how well it would suit the desperation of a stalker. :))

    Yes, Mr Beech.

    Sting wrote this about the song - some viewed it as very romantic, some viewed it as oppressive, some viewed it as a Cold War renewal song, some viewed it as very oppressive and a stalker song. It's the soundtrack to Justin Lee Collins' life (contrary to the Protection from Harassment Act 1997).

    How about;

    'Do you wanna touch me (oh yeah)'

    'Doing alright with the boys'

    or

    'What your mama don't see'

    all by Gary Glitter?
