I been on a bond theme run the past few weeks. Here is bond theme starting 5. Links provided

  1. Goldfinger. I don't even need to discuss it. Shirley bassey is a goddess and this song is everything right with bond. Goat tier
  2. TOMORROW NEVER DIES. This song is Sheryl Crows best song ever, is absolutely out kicking its coverage, and aged shockingly. It is way better than the movie too.
  3. On her Majesty's secret service. All orchestra, no lyrics, it puts you right in the feel of James Bondpauseand it generally goes hard.
  4. A license to kill. Gladys Knight absolutely crushes this...so smooth. It's underrated arguably, maybe a top song of hers
  5. THUNDERBALLpause. Tom Jones is GOIN FOR IT on this and honestly he crushes it...lyrically he tells you exactly what James Bond is about, and the orchestra goes in, and interpolates bond classic themes.
Honorable mention to "you only live twice" and "live and let die".

Favorite parts of No time to Die were when they incorporated the On Her Majesty's Secret Service soundtrack

Tomorrow Never Dies - Very dark and lush. It evokes the 60s which somehow makes it timeless compared to some of the try hard choices from Brosnan up to the current era.

Diamonds Are Forever - Maybe the best theme to sample. Crisp old school instrumentation and dope vocal performance. Bassey will retain her record for the most Bond title songs - 3. I think its one of the worst Bond films though.

Live & Let Die - McCartney.

Nobody Does It Better - Beautiful track. Probably the classiest Bond song.

A View To A Kill - Duran Duran had amazing Pop songwriting skills in the 80s. This is as catchy and groovy as their biggest hits. Bernard Edwards filled in for their regular producer Nile Rogers, along with John Barry.

Theres some other good ones but those are ones that I play most often. I don't like any of the newer ones tbh, I don't know who they'll pick next. Maybe Olivia Rodrigo? Beyonce?

IDK why I thought this thread was about the 007 theme song doc on Amazon.

For me it's: Goldfinger, Diamonds Are Forever, Nobody Does It Better (it grew on me), License to Kill, Golden Eye

Honestly view to a kill is my personal favorite, but I'm more than biased since I love durab Duran. License to kill is a close favorite though
