Bond music for your Bond Moments

I'm endeavouring to install a sense of fun And excitement amongst the dreariness of the 2-3 year gap before bond 25.
So you are driving in your car. It's an Aston. Or a Lotus. Or a Bentley for the purists.
You have a lovely lady in the passenger seat. And you are chatting about the philosophical state of man in an urban environment.
But suddenly, appearing in the traffic behind you, is a Mercedes Benz, with a gorilla like thug, waving their pistols at you, and screaming out words which rhyme with duck and runt.
You turn to your gorgeous bird And utter a quip, "you Are not married, by any chance?"
Before gunning the engine out towards the widening motor way.
You turn your stereo on.
What, Piece of James Bond score would you play at that exact moment, in order to drive better and impress your lady friend?
If you Are just gonna say Bond theme, what orchestration?

-For me. It has to be "drive in the country" from the FYEO soundtrack, composed by bill conti. This piece is just so groovy, fun and funky. It's bond, through and through.

A few hours later you are back at your apartment, after finishing a meal, she keeps commenting how brave you are.
In a moment of inspiration, your lady offers to "put something more comfortable on" before leaving to the bathroom.
You have one minute to prepare. You loosen your bow tie. Unbutton three buttons. You find your Bollinger RD, and two glasses, and you reposition the couch.
Your stereo is there. What piece of soundtrack score would you put on, in order to make this night special?

-For me. Either take me home, from FyeO, or we have All the time in the world, by Louis Armstrong.
What would you do? :)

    For the first part most likely 'Live and Let Die'.

    Back at the apartment I'd play 'Cafe Martinique' from Thunderball. I've always loved this scene and the music that accompanies it. Mind you, I've always loved Domino :x

    If I'm late and to get a move on it has to be African rundown, fast driving theme for me is time to get out. And tennyson finds it way on in the car if I've had words with Mrs Chriscoop.
    I also often find myself humming the music from daf the space buggy scene.
    It was either that.....or the priesthood

    I've been listening to the Live and Let Die soundtrack whilst walking through the Upper East Side of Manhattan, where the locations for the Oh Cult Voodoo Shop and Filet of Soul were (not actually in Harlem).
