Apparently it's going to be the first time a Duet has done a Bond song, Alicia Keys and Jack White. I read this on the news today. Anyone know any more information on it?
as long as they make it so that you can skip it on the DVD... the songs are always the most boring and annoying.
In Die Another Day it was doable because it showed scenes that contributed to the movie (but the song was horrible); if they do it like that again, it might be ok. But about the singers: I tried but I failed to care a rat's ass about it.

Amy Winehouse is going to release her Bond theme, that didn't make it, on the same day the official song comes out to show that hers is better and will be higher in the charts... apparently...
I think that "Another Way To Die", much like "You Know My Name", is a song that grows on you with time. Neither of them are classics, IMHO (and I'm sure will never be regarded as such), but they're certainly miles better than Madonna's "Die Another Day".
Personally, I think it's a huge shame that Amy Winehouse never completed the Bond theme that she was working on with Mark Ronson; she's got a great, Shirley Bassey-esque quality to her voice that I think would have suited a Bond film very well indeed. Maybe for Bond 23, eh? Or, failing that, why not just bring back Shirley Bassey - can't go wrong with her .

You know, I was listening the The Last Shadow Puppets yesterday and was thinking they could have had a really good go at creating a Bond theme, all the 60s/70s style of music they have in their songs. I was actually thinking out a Bond credits sequence in my head while I was exercising to their music.
It's not a very good song, but still way, WAY better than Die Another Day along with a lot of other 007 theme songs.
You know my name from Casino Royale is my favorite bond intro song ever. I remember back when I saw it in theaters, when the song came on a lot of people kind of looked at each other and nodded, almost like they were surprised that the song was good lol
