best/worst Bond songs
Original at James Bond Wiki
• 6 hours ago
By Anonymous I have noticed that some of you are saying that Alicia Keys & Jack White’s Another Way to Die from Quantum of Solace is on your top ten lists, but I have to disagree. The song is very good, but I don’t think it fits so well as a James Bond song/theme.

By Dalton007 It's sub-par Bond: laughable title song that sounded dated even in 1975, ridiculous henchman, and another embarrassing go-around with Sheriff Pepper sink this one quickly. Christopher Lee fans may rate this more highly, even though the horror icon isn't given anything interesting to...
