Bond 23 is now "Skyfall"

[Rico]

Looks like Youtube killed it already.  But you can hear a snippet of the song at the link below.  I really like it.

I thought it was just kind of mediocre. It seemed to be missing that Wow factor, but who knows it might actually be fine once you hear it with the opening sequence. I don't know of Adele wrote the song but (I say this tongue in cheek here) I think Miley Cyrus or Hillary Duff could have fared better vocal wise.

Good job that is tongue in cheek lol. I quite like this and the reason I like it is that you can hear the Bond thread music in the chords. That is what makes a Bond theme. Ok I have only heard the 90 second clip so I don;t know the full arrangement but i'm thumbs up.

Full version released. It's great.  :bond

Certainly has a Shirley Bassey/Jogn Barry vibe going. Still, Nobody Does it Better reigns supreme for me. :)

I have always been partial to Lulu singing 'Man With The Golden Gun', and of course ....'Gold Finger!'

I like this song a lot and I'm not the biggest fan of Adele either.

Compared to the first version that was posted this is an improvement and it may grow on me over time. A month away from the opening and we'll see how it sets the tone of the film with the opening sequence.

Great song. You can download it from itunes. Here is a great article on yahoo about the Bond songs including the new one.

Someone took a bit of Adele's song and blended it with one of the trailers.  It really works well I think.

Well I just came back from a evening with Sir Roger Moore. Front row seats about 3 meters from the man. Great Q&A sessions and wonderful anecdotes. He has high praise for Daniel Craig.

I tried to get a quick photo when he sat down in the second half but as the lights were quite bright and I didnt want to use a flash as its a bit rude this is the best photo i could get of Sir Roger. We were right in front of him.

[ChrisMC]

That's cool, Meds. I'd love to hear some of his stories.

That video is great, Rico! I am very much in love with the song...can't wait for November 6th!

I enjoyed a lot of Roger Moore's Bond movies. I also liked 'A View to a Kill'. Which is one of the few I need for my collection.
Also with the 50 year celebration going on, Walmart had Bond movies on DVD for $5. And they had Blu-rsy for $9.99. They didn't have every movie though just certain ones. I picked up Moonraker on DVD they didn't have it on Blu-ray.
