Me, too, but particularly this one by Sex Mob with the raunchy brass and organ. Esp. when it goes all eargasmic around the 3:30 min mark.
Wow! If I ever heard stripper music, this is IT! It was all I could do to restrain myself from removing my bra and twirling it around my head before flinging it at my two incredulous dogs. Way cool arrangement.
Hodge, check out this video.
Love it! Actually, the whole Sex Mob Does Bond album is wonderfully sleazy cheese but those movie clips really kick things up a notch!!
The original Casino Royale theme song is vastly underrated by all of you. Far and away the best one!
I like this Will Forte version of that Herb Alpert classic.
ETA: Dancing with Peyton Manning!
ETA: Back when SNL was funny. 2007.
That kinda is a James Bond movie theme. A minute and a half of the first one.
Shirley Bassey’s cover of “Who Wants to Live Forever?” makes an unusually good alternate theme for OHMSS.
“You know my name” from Casino Royale.

It kinda does double duty in You Know My Name, at that.

My fave is still Chris Cornell’s “You Know My Name” from the Casino Royale remake - great song, and a very cool opening-credits sequence, too: Casino Royale - Chris Cornell - You Know My Name - YouTube
Chris Cornell’s You Know My Name is amazing. Best one.
I didn’t like Adel’s You know my name, but love this cover of it. Have a listen.
I’m a little surprised and pleased to hear so much love for “You Know My Name.” It’s one of my very favorites and I thought I remembered hearing it caught a lot of critical flak for some reason.
When I first saw Casino Royale I really didn’t like the title sequence or song. On listening to the song by itself I started to really like it and went back to have another look at the titles on DVD. Yep, pretty damn good.
I like a lot of the Bond songs but I only have three on my iPod that I listen to:
[ul]
[li]You know my name.[/li][li]Goldeneye.[/li][li]Living Daylights[/li][/ul]
I’m a huge Chris Cornell fan, but I don’t think of his song when thinking of favorite Bond songs.
The first favorite that comes to mind is View to a Kill, probably due to my age when that film came out. I like that song probably more than I should.
Goldfinger is probably the quintessential Bond theme though.
I give Adele props for Skyfall, but the fact it was touted as a single before the movie came out kind of cheapened it for me. The theme song is supposed to support the movie, not the other way.
Nobody Does It Better and For Your Eyes Only. Yep, child of the late 70s, early 80s.
Live and Let Die.
I did not like the Skyfall song at all.
The theme from OHMSS and “We Have All the Time in the World.”
Themes from From Russia with Love, Goldfinger, Thunderball, You Only Live Twice, Diamonds Are Forever.
“Nobody Does It Better” and “For Your Eyes Only.”
I like Herb Alpert’s Casino Royale theme, but I just can’t associate it with James Bond.
I agree with this list.
Well I have the following in my song collection:
You Know My Name
The World is Not Enough
Tomorrow Never Dies
A View to a Kill
Thunderball
Goldfinger
I haven’t bothered to get any others so I suppose they aren’t great in my estimation.
Of these You Know my Name gets the most playtime so I guess it is my favorite. I can’t listen to** A View to a Kill** anymore because Le Bon sings the song so damn flat, it’s terrible.
In the latter, are you speaking of “We Have All the Time in the World”? If so, you picked my favorite two square on. (The Other was “You Only Live Twice.” That was Nancy Sinatra doing the vocal.)
