Apparently PSB had submitted an early version of 'This must be the place' as the theme tune for 'The Living Daylights', a missed opportunity methinks. Rather more unlikely was that Johnny Cash had submitted a song as the title theme to 'Thunderball'. No disrespect to the Man in Black but I think EON got it right first time.

It's kind of a mess.

it's not bad instrumentally, but the vocals are godawful. neither of them are exactly the most capable of singers anyway, and together they're less than the sum of their parts.

I'm probably completely alone in this, but I've always felt very moved by Sheryl Crow's theme. Def. one of my favorites.

A very natural choice for next Bond theme would be either Amy Winehouse or Duffy performing some strongly Shirley Bassey influenced track. You can't get much closer to the original spirit of the archetypical Bond themes than that.

You know it'll be, like, Fergie or something.

I have a feeling that a Bond theme by the Fall would be strangely fantastic.
Gold-fing-ah!
Lie Dream of a Casino Royale...
*sorry*

Winehouse was supposed to do the last one with Jack White but it was shelved because she was too fucked up to finish it.

Wished that Hooverphonic had a chance to do one.

I would say they need to get away the "rock" numbers of the past two movies anyway. They just don't sound like proper Bond themes.
