I liked it but it's not even close to as good as skyfall or earlier stuff.

Disappointing. Not bad, but not as good as I'd expect of the opener to a Bond film.

It'll probably fit the theme of the opening though.

Still wish Radiohead did the theme...

Doesn't sound like a bond theme

Its bland, lacks any punch, and its probably the worst Bond theme I've ever heard

remove the vocals and you've got ambient music for S.T.A.L.K.E.R

I started playing it in the background and I literally forgot it was playing. That's very bad.

Remind me why they didn't give it to Janelle Monae? She'd be utterly perfect for it.

That skeleton thing can't be serious... every time I see it a I laugh.

This sounds really cool to be honest. :v

Adele was right up there with "Goldfinger" as being one of the best themes. This is just boring. [QUOTE=Solomon;48760413]This sounds really cool to be honest. :v[/QUOTE] It's supposed to be the opening song, not the end credits, which it sounds like.

[QUOTE=Swiket;48760427]That's a random but not bad suggestion.[/QUOTE] I don't think it's random at all, my brother threw the idea at me ages ago. Tell me you don't listen to this and hear Bond [I]immediately: [/I][media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9o4UPAsyNeI[/media]

Snake Eater is a better Bond song than this

sam smith has an alright voice but due to major over exposure via radio I fucking despise his songs

Pretty bland, kinda expected. Still think Lana Del Rey would've been a superior choice. '24' off her new album practically is a Bond song already.

Tomorrow Never Dies was one of my all time favorite bond songs. The World is Not Enough was also quite good. Goldfinger. But this is kind of boring. No oomf to it

Apart from instruments in some cases they are incredibly similar to earlier bond songs

The intro scene is also kinda important. But the song alone feels a bit off.

It's been almost half a decade since The King of Limbs. This is the longest we've had to wait for a new Radiohead album.

[QUOTE=Socram;48760381]That skeleton thing can't be serious... every time I see it a I laugh.[/QUOTE] wait, is that a real poster? that can't be real promotional material

You can see James wearing it in the second trailer. I think it's supposed to be a throwback to Baron Samedi from Live and Let Die.

Should have gotten Chris Cornell to do it again, Casino Royale's theme was amazing.

[QUOTE=Lukeo;48760457]sam smith has an alright voice but due to major over exposure via radio I fucking despise his songs[/QUOTE] his producers are pathetic. I can't stand his music but it's so obvious how much worse it is because of how lazy his producers are. a voice like that needs something to drive it, and every sam smith song sounds like they made the backing band consume a giant bowl of methadone.

This'll probably end up like Skyfall, people going insane over how the theme sucks until the movie comes out and more people take a liking to it.
