Any suggestions, only things I could suggest to go around is that they have to be somewhat popular and suited to a bond title theme

someone suggested Elton John....

I would say Leanne Rhymes could bring a nice catchy tune,

I dont think they would have a rock band do it this time, god forbid they would use the darkness lol

Dream Theatre could bring a good nice rock rythm to it

I'm thinking they'll choose "Beyonce" (Knowles) because of her current "star status" - (at least in North America.)

Is she of any consequence elsewhere in the world???

I highly recommend William Hung.

"It's Bond, Bond...oh yeah, baby! It's Bond, Bond...James Bond..."





















lol! j/k You know I was kidding, right? Oh gawd, I hope you realize I was kidding! lol


Robbie Williams.

I say no Beyonce, no Robbie Williams either
Perhaps Elton John would be good... But Leanne Rhymes is even better

Actually I don't mind the artist much, more the song itself.

definitly no Beyonce, she probably wants a big part in the movie too to gain some more money

not sure about Elton John... but hey, I'm not that good at songs and stuff

William Hung....



Now that was clever!

As for Leann Rimes,... do you mean to have her do something "not-so-country-music-ish"??

well, and if she does, I take Bond will go to Nashville , Tennessee

COOL! I've always wanted to go to Nashville!

Wait - if Leann Rimes sings - does that mean she gets a first timer role as a Bond girl too - so that bond would go to Nashville?

Maybe she'd be better than Denise Richards?

Nah...bring back Barry with a decent voice like Annie lennox for the vocals....Cool!!!

you can go, EM, I won't stop ya, twas horrible there
than again, I dislike country music

Who's William Hung?

http://www.williamhung.net/

He is just a recent example of how "ANYTHING" is possible with the right marketing in America! (and that's not always a good thing)

good he's not famuos here than

wow, he looks......

Well, he's famous because the media makes fun of him. He was never really a "contender" on the "American Idol" (like Pop Idol) - but people just thought his performance was so hilarious they ENCOURAGED him - and so now it's as if he truly thinks he has talent!!!

THAT is the U.S. for ya!

you dont' have to be a good singer to make money

That's right - I agree with yerssot - just look at Madonna,... Britney Spears....

ANNIE LENNOX IS AWESOME however!!

oh, I'm sure they can sing... a tad ... under the shower where no one can hear them

Yeah, she's the only British pop singer that can truely be labeled DIVA...

Madonna or Lennox?

Nah...Madonna only WANTS to be a Brit!

luckily she got taken back to the states

Really? I thought she was living in London?

Madonna the "wanna be"... she's already done Bond music...

LENNOX - definitely!

but we want to forget it quickly

Strange - most people won't "admit" to liking Madonna these days - but how many were actually fans in their younger years?? (I never liked her)

Who buys all those records? She can't be related to THAT many people!!

was I even around at that point?

Around WHAT and at WHICH point?

The ones Madonna used to wear as a bra that could poke you (man who came too close) in the eye?

Okay, that was snarky...

that she was actively making music... was I even born at that point?

Where were you in 1984/85??

on seperate places

So how are you so familiar with BOND??

He only likes GOLDENEYE!

He cut his teeth on Goldeneye???

I know...I cut mine on FRWL...now, THERE's real class!!!

they actually did a marathon on a channel here and saw (and taped) them all, loved the secret agent stuff

OMG!! I'm like the Crypt Keeper compared to you all!!!

sadwalk

that's not weird, I'm not old either, and I still know the movies cause my parents love them

and I like Madonna clap

don't worry EM... we're all as old as we feel

btw: topic: the original James Bond theme

Madonna was all over the radio during my youth/teens... I can't bring myself to like her music or singing.

She is brilliant, however, in marketing and reinventing herself. She's no dummy.

Original James Bond theme?? Doesn't THAT get reinvented with each movie, to a degree?

to a degree yes, but since I said "original" I mean the original

yes but the thread title is "next" Bond theme

yes, going back to the original without changing it

Christian Bale...Christian Bale...Christian Bale...

The traffic is way too much here...apologies...

as Bond or as singer?

Can Christian Bale sing?

in America you don't HAVE to sing to be a singer you said

Yes, but Christian Bale is a Brit - most singers and actors from there have legit. talent.

forgive my ignorance but is madonna british or american?

I DID say sorry...

(*laughs and shakes head)

I guess that means Christian Bale is not a singer... at least not anywhere but the shower...

Madonna is an American - married to a Brit - "Guy Ritchie" (Richie?) whose claim to fame is a BMW commercial (I think) and some really bad movies with Madonna as the lead

SWEPT AWAY?

they better kept her on the island

Naughty, naughty...and then you say you've never seen an Emmanuelle film???

I have a pure mind

Does Emmanuelle sing? offtopic

We are on the "theme thread here."

Has there ever been a country music Bond theme?

you'll make a good mod here EM

hmm, I think there has, with that one movie when he was in Kentucky... lemme think about the movie it was a Connery one

Oh, Emmanuelle sings alright...a delightful feminist song...every time her...

"Oh, the bubbles are tickling my Tchaikovsky!!!"

they kept tickling I say old man

It's a quote from AVTAK, Y...a quote from from AVTAK!!!

I know TR... I just made a comment about Emmanuela

Re: Emmanuelle dontgetit

Maybe my mind is too innocent?

(*frustrated, she leaves for place where posters stay on topic)

it's a baaad thing... ask TR

okok ...topic: keep the original please

Good...the first step of the road to recovery is admittance..."I HAVE SEEN AN EMMANUELLE FILM...I HAVE SEEN AN EMMANUELLE FILM..." go on Y, it's easy...just breathe in and then let it out!!!

I never did

You'd say mass Y...you'd say mass...!

let's get back on topic shall we

What was that???

Please do (stay on topic).

BTW, TR, I got the AVTAK thing (after the fact)

Aargh! The postings are going too fast! Too fast I tell you!

they don't use the bond theme enough during the movie I say!

I'll "second" that.

I wish I could third that... I don't get it... it's the most famous track they have and they only let it here in the beginning

whoa not being a mod or anything but jesus......topics are hard to stay on lol

when i was teething the first bond film to come out would have been Living Daylights,


I was sperm

Madonna did have some great hits but was acting as a pornstar at her shows lol

Beyonce would actually be a great choice as next bond theme (btw she is quite huge in the UK)

The actual bond "shoot" theme has been changed alot every film, the best place i remember it being PERFECT was in the game "goldeneye" for the N64

Discos - has spoken

nyah to you......i didnt read all thread,am tired

I'm too, going off

Catch Ya L8r......Buddy

Well, I've just got to get this in before everyone who isn't in North America gets up in the morning........

Beyonce - gorgeous - great voice - possibly (I had suggested that earlier, actually.... or at least I meant to)

BUT - I've got a CANADIAN choice (who lives in Switzerland part of the year).... who is HUGE - in 2 different music genres - and she is BEAUTIFUL too. Her hubby is a record producer "Mutt Lange":

SHANIA TWAIN!

Go to www.shaniatwain.com to see what she's like if you've never seen her.

ah she could have of had her chance when world not enough came out

I just have something against beyonce

hmmm, shania twain... guess it could well be... just as long as she holds the country back and does more pop or something

that song she made, "That Don't Impress me much", was enough Pop-like

yeah, but THAT doesn't suit a bond theme ... maybe she can be bondgirl and sing it to Pierce

lol,

Bond: i like my martinis shaken, not stirred
Shania: pfft....that dont impress me much

hionestly though, i thought Garbage did a kick ass theme to show the rock scene a little interest in bond, (god not the 5,6,7,8's from kill bill lol)

good dialogue

garbage was okish

I'm just listening to the title song of MI:2 by Limp Bizkit...

if they make something like that but a bit more ... calm and cool; why not them as the next artists?

god no, that would suck, i thought that MI2 song sucked!

might as well ask Linkin Park

but it's modern

linkin park... not sure if they can do it slower, not sure limp bizikit can do it slower either

I loooove Linkin Park I say them rather than Limp Bizkit
I don't think any of the two bands is very suitable though

U2 for the Next Bond theme

"It's a beautiful day"
Nice, I'd like a girl better though

or Pearl Jam...

Humm, a girl - how about Stevie Nicks ?

I've only heard of her, never seen her/heard her I think (or I've just haven't combined the voice/songs with a name)

Pic?

Here it is http://www.richbriere.com/images/stevie_2001.jpg

does she sing too?

Yes, she was in a band called Fleetwood Mac

I know that one let them do the theme

I don't know her

I heard of the band

I was thinking... U2!!!
Bono and the Edge wrote the song for Goldeneye, maybe they can sing it this time and maybe it would be nominated for a oscar

it depends, which big movies get out that year to steal it from them?

but they did the Tomb Raider one too, no?

Well, I hope is not another Eminem movie, I can't believe that Lose yourself won the oscar and not The Hands that Built America

Lose yourself won???? I knew the oscars were barely given to the best in their section, but this is just rediculous

Yes, that stupid song won the oscar, but at least Hands that Build America won a Golden Globe

that's better?

No, but at least Eminem didn't get a Globe

Metallica for the next bond theme, that would be funy as hell!

How about Michael Jackson or Boy George? This song goes with James Bond, dedicated to the evil women that he loves but they are evil... "Do you really want to hurt me, do you really want to make me cry"

I can imagine it already....

"Billy Jean's not my lovah!
She's just a girl who claims that I am the double 0
But that kid she got is not my son
She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son!"
but better then

That's it, and Billy Jean should be the name of the new Bond Girl... all adds up together

but she'll be pregnant?

Yes, with Bond's baby

orrrrr...with blofelds baby after he got frozen and revived

Revived? Who would have to get rid of his cat in order to have that baby in the house
The baby could be just like him

we shall call him... mini-him

And he would carry a little Kitten

but not get his earlobs cut

Noo, of course not,

and that cut over his eye he had in one movie?

that's going to be a strange birth mark or maybe the nurse, a wacko nurse, while trying to steal the baby, slips and the baby falls making the cut in the same eye as his father.

and that nurse can be blofelds secret lovah

Yeah!! and Blofelds cheated her with another woman, the mother of the baby or Billy Jean and the nurse is so mad she tries to steal the baby who is a new secret weapon against all the nations in the world!

how can the baby be that?

He has a heart made of antimater (something that never, never could happen but heck... is a movie )

they should hire you as screenwriter

That would be nice, they could have the most bizarre James Bond Movie ever

and Tarantino to direct it

Yeah, the Tarantino/ Tolentino team- we could even win Best Original Screenplay - the only thing is that is not original because the characters are based on the Ian Fleming books
Wait Best adapted Screenplay!

followed by best directing, best leading actor, best supporting female role, best music, best costumes, and what else?

Best Original Song!!

Best editing? best sound effect, best visual effects??

hey, it's bond, they'll never get best visual effects

But this time... I would contact the guys that worked for the Lord of the Rings movies... the oscar is in the bag!!

or ILM... they rock too

!!!!
Not a bad idea

I'm full of good ones

Now, getting on topic, Cindy Lauper, she should sing the next Bond song

"oh Bond, he just wanna have fun, ooh, Bond just wanna have fun"

and he sure does

or Aguilera...
"Lets get dirrty"

Or Britney, "Ops, I didn't again, I shot your heart..."

or christina milan... "Bond getting down and shouts: from AM to PM"

Christina Milian,
Ok, here goes Justin Timberlake "But I bet you didn't think that Bond would come crashing down, no"

or the oldies from Five... letting the bad guy sing:

"Don't wanna let you go, we just wanna tell you. Just wanna let you know, that we will kill youuuuu"

A classic one from Pink Floyd - the Happiest times of our lives
"When we grew up and went to spy school
There were certain spies who would
Hurt the villains in any way they could"

That's more serious

well, if you really want classics, just take AC/DCs Back in Black and get bond to run around in his black smoking

Or used clothes like the guy from AC/DC with the tie and shorts, I don't remember his name

and I only know it from saying

is this where i can ask these:

what if Bond had a Child, i mean a child about 20 or something..a child born out of wed-lock. bucked some former bond chick and presto...Bond Junior, a evil bastard. why? because the Bond child becomes a badguy and teams with some female villian, of course not the mom of the bastard but some other female. i know ity sounds nuts, but what if? i mean what else stories can they use. i think its time to get personal...what ya think..don't crucify me, they already have Mel Gibson hanging.

a that personal vendatta could be impossible for a bond movie,... the last personal vendetta was LTK and that was related to a druglord and all (and the one in DAF was around 20 seconds)
