GerateWohl 4,350 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I have to say, even though I am not a Zimmer fan and I wouldn't necessarily call the Dune score *music", but that kind of "soundscape" is probably what Zimmer does best. It worked well in the movie. badbu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I haven't liked a Bond song since TWINE. Although I will admit the horrible Madonna song for DAD has a certain ironic campy pleasure to it. DrTenma 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,336 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Oh man, I love Chris Cornell's You Know My Name! But yes, that's certainly the only good one to come out post-TWINE, for sure DrTenma 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 3,679 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I didn't like NTTD when I first heard it but it's grown on me a lot. Nothing will beat Skyfall easily, and YNMN is also really good (a tad OTT for me), but this isn't a bad one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A24 4,331 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I want Shirley Bassey for every Bond movie! Shirley Bassey is Bond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I mean they fit the tone of the character in the Craig era I guess but it's like.... Bond songs don't have to be miserable portentous sounding slogs. Admittedly the Quantum one doesn't fit that criticism but I think we all agreed to pretend that song doesn't exist anyway (I say this as a big fan of Jack White).

Jay 37,336 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Yea I love most of Jack White's projects too but that song has never worked for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M'lud, the case for the prosecution rests Another Way To Die has, like the film that it accompanies, grown on me, over the last...what...13?...years. At least it's better than the new one, and that dreadful cat-strangling Skyfall nonsense. If only the proposed Arnold/Winehouse collaboration had happened.

A24 4,331 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I was a Proggy back then and didn't know there was a disco version. A sad disco version nonetheless! That was the thing Disco had over Funk. Disco could be sad as well as happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GerateWohl 4,350 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I really liked You Know My Name and Another Way to Die. Skyfall was kind of lame. The melody in the chorus was like a stripped down line taken from Diamonds are Forever. But the worst was this Spectre song. The Billie Eilish song is ok, but unexciting.

The first step in the right direction is to acknowledge that it exists but that it's rubbish. We should acknowledge that our favourite artists produce rubbish occasionally.

Sweeping Strings 2,352 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Cornell's and Adele's are CraigBond's best songs. Another Way To Die is, erm, yeah. Writing's On The Wall starts promisingly with the orchestra suggesting we're in for a bit of Barryesque splendour, then Smith's awful balls-in-a-vice warbly bullshit kicks in and the notion is soon dissipated. As for No Time To Die ... well, in a saner world than ours the sullen and mumbly 19 year old with hair that looks like a highlighter pen has leaked all over it at a studio would be the intern who does the coffee runs, not the artist.

Also I like a lot Adele's Skyfall. About Hans getting a golden globe for Dune's score... Well, I don’t care. I don't like much his composition but these are the golden globes.
