Another Way To Die - Video

BBC's The One Show (I know, tragically I was watching it eating my tea) claimed to have the world exclusive, first sneak preview of the video to Another Way To Die over the end titles tonight.
Of the snippet shown, it's alternate shots of Keyes singing into a silver microphone (with a time piece in it) with freaky looking White wandering around a silver background, with shadow and silver and sand coloured swirly lines, White playing guitar or Keyes playing piano (White is wearing a tux, but still looks weird). Then for the shouty bit, there's a backdrop of a desert at night while they scream at each other, face to face. No snippets of film in the footage aired, and I'd hedge a guess from what I've seen that there won't be any.
There might be a hint of biasedness coming out in that I can't stand it, and that'd be correct

Granted, I guess you can visually dress up a song best described as guff any old way - to use a recently popular phrase, you can put lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig - but it's just a bland music video over a song I had on mute.
Jack White does look as if he's recently deceased in this video though, really freaky.
I love the song (actually love it) and I think the video is rather good too. I wouldn't be surprised if some of those backgrounds feature in the title sequence.
... and what's with all this commenting on how people look again? So what? Here's hoping that all AJB members are exquisite oil paintings.
I wouldn't say that Jack White looks like a girl to his face, either; he gets a bit fighty and has been working out recently by the looks of him!
This new one sounds hip-hop-ish, so that probably is what tears it for me. A little after my time. But the theme song is last on my checklist for what makes a great Bond film. Although a great one does make it better.
Yes Mo, there are more of us about than you think
The song is great, I liked it from the first time I heard it. The video does it's job.
Roll on the film
I liked the video too but thought that it was about a minute too long. White does look a little strange but Keyes more than makes up for it by looking fantastic. My favorite part was at the end when Bond makes an appearance.

budge up....I hope there's room for me too....
I think the video is rather good, and fits the song too...but then, like Sir Miles, I liked the song the first time I heard it....
can't wait to see it over the titles.
I can't help but love it either! I think the song is great -and will be fantastic with the opening of the movie -it has an anger and energy about it that is fitting. The video is ok too -I think Mr white looks suitably moody and Alicia looks stunning as ever. Its the film I want now though -and i'm definitely counting the days.
Video itself is ok, love the Craigster coming over the mountain with the machine gun.
I don't care what White's look is. It's what I hear that counts. Unfortunately what I'm hearing here isn't Bond trade. Sorry!
I can't stand it,either
Where's John Barry when Eon needs him?
I know that's a rhetorical question, but JB's more or less retired these days (although I hear that he's been working on a new stand-alone album). Sadly, even if Barry had continued writing the Bond music he'd have been in the same position as David Arnold re the title song- which is one of the reasons he quit.
Nevertheless,considering the usually high standard of the James Bond themes of the past 20-odd years,by comparison this...this thing...is noise,not music.To my taste,shouting doesn't equal singing,and all the attitude in the world can't replace musicianship.
What a disappointment.:(
And your point is?
Tastes differ, styles vary. Plus ca change, plus ca difference.
Yet again we have a situation in the Bond franchise where the membership of this site are diametrically opposed. One group are positive, one negative.
Personally, I can understand why some would dislike this song and/or video. However, that - I'm afraid - doesn't make it bad.
