This video has the opening to the 2006 Casino Royale with the music from the original Casino Royale opening back in the 60's

    Hilarious! :)) I'm amazed at how well everything matches up (though the '67 music is, alas, a touch shorter than this title sequence). So much for playing Dark Side of the Moon with The Wizard of Oz--we've got a new phenomenon here!

    (P.S.--I hope that site stays up for a while at least. No doubt the title sequence is pirated, and I'm sure EON and Sony won't be too happy about that!)

    Well I certainly enjoyed that more than when the atrocious song that stopped people from celebrating religious holidays (aka "You Know my Name") played during them.

    Great job!

    Very witty indeed, even if it is a bit naughty. Good find, jillmastersonfanboy.

    My God, that's f*****g brilliant :))

    I must confess, I've been a fan of Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass since I was *so high*, and have loved their CR theme since the moment I first heard it---waaaay back in the late '60's...

    This made my day, jillmastersonfanboy. Many thanks {[]

    Pity they didn't use the vocal version though.

    In case you didn't know Loeff, I hate You Know My Name and am glad whoever it was replaced them in the titles! Brilliance!

    I think Loeffelholz's question is: What is it about You Know My Name "that stopped people from celebrating religious holidays". Care to explain?

    Thanks, MNL; sometimes, exasperation robs me of eloquence :D I hate it when that happens :#

    Generally, the power to wreak havoc upon religious holidays is reserved to dictators, rogue governments, etc., rather than movie-theme pop tunes---granted, the times, they are a changin', but... :o

    Well, I was exaggerating, basically I'm saying it's so horrible that it stopped people from believing in their religion and celebrating holidays.
