I really like the Mccartny " live and let die" song. It incorporates the movie title and also has a riff in the music reminiscent of the Bond theme.

Carly Simon - Nobody Does It Better
Number One Song of all TIME! ... From The Spy Who Loved Me (1977) - IMDb
Words of the Song
Nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it half as good as you
Baby, you're the best
I wasn't lookin' but somehow you found me
It tried to hide from your love light
But like heaven above me
The spy who loved me
Is keepin' all my secrets safe tonight
And nobody does it better
Though sometimes I wish someone could
Nobody does it quite the way you do
Why'd you have to be so good?
The way that you hold me
Whenever you hold me
There's some kind of magic inside you
That keeps me from runnin'
But just keep it comin'
How'd you learn to do the things you do?
Oh, and nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it half as good as you
Baby, baby, darlin', you're the best
Baby you're the best
Darlin', you're the best
Baby you're the best

shirley Bassey Goldfinger

Tom Jones Thunderball

I love the James Bond Theme from Dr. No by John Barry and His Orchestra. Beyond that, probably the only one I'd actively think about listening too is Goldfinger by Shirley Bassey.

Live and let die
Goldeneye
Goldfinger
License to kill
A view to a kill
Diamonds are forever
Skyfall
the instrumental themes from Dr. No and from On her Majesty's Secret Service...
Might as well list them all; they were very few bad ones in the lot!
With the new ones, I like how they'll sometimes make musical references to the classic themes. Bond is more than a series; it's now a modern mythology. It's nice to see it treated as such.

I have the 50 Years Best of CD and listen to it quite a bit.  Well except for that horrible Madonna one. |

I wish they'd had more time to work the melody into the score instead of using the k.d. Lang one from the end credits. |

"Live and Let Die" by Paul McCartney and Wings, by a country mile. I also quite like "A View to a Kill" by Duran Duran. Those are the only two that I ever actively listen to.

These are also my top two in the same order. But a lot of my other favorites are apparently ones that aren't popular. A while back, I read an article that ranked the James Bond songs, and so many of my favorites were poorly ranked: The Living Daylights, The Man With the Golden Guy (the lyrics are cheesy, but that's why I like it), and Another Way to Die (the Jack White/Alicia Keys song from Quantum of Solace). |
