    The QOS song by Alicia keys and Jack white is quite possibly the worst, should have been done by oasis...

    Sorry I didn't know it had been posted previously. It's pretty great I think...although I do like the actual track too...wonder what the Bond 23 track will be like...

    Pretty difficult seeing as they have split....and I really can't 'hear' Liam singing that song at all...

    I agree with CJ007.

    When I heard Another Way to Die threough the Cinema speakers, I wanted to believe it was a parody! To me it felt like it had been thrown together in a rush and brings nothing to Bond. I am glad I got a discounted copy of "The Best Of Bond that concludes with You Know My Name!

    Forever I am Yours is not a polished rendition of the track, and the use of Craig's dialogue from CR is showy and the lyrics are a bit self indulgent to that previous film, - but it is both an enjoyable song, and a good Bond song.

    By the eay Thanks 007, - I now have a decent sounding copy thanks to the repost! (Sees M frowning from his desk.) - Just don't do it again! :D
    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?

    It's cheesy and camp and not in a good way, but the worst thing about it - and I've warned the uploader about this - is that it isn't a rejected theme because Sony/EON never heard it to begin with.

    If you were Sony/EON, would you listen to the hundreds of submissions from fans or artists nobody has ever heard of? Nope - you contact established artists to write a song and you listen to what they deliver.

    Nobody at Sony/EON ever heard that song, which is why it annoys me when it's labelled as 'rejected'.

    I had heard that all submissions of this sort are NEVER opened...this would have to be verified by lawyers...and are either returned or destroyed...same with film script submissions....although I'm certain Eon have a few 'genuine' unused themes in their vaults...I'd love to hear the Eric Clapton one they have stashed away for example...

    That is horrible. I'm not a big fan of Another Way To Die but I thought it at least worked in the context of a title sequence. That is far worse than the original IMO. :#
