Default Quantum of Solace Theme Song

I don't know if this deserves its own thread, but the trailer thread is pretty dead and Bond theme songs are kind of an event all upon themselves.

Anyhow this is the first min 20 secs of the Quantum of Solace theme song (Another Way to Die)

Thus far, I got to say I am not a fan, it just seems weird especially after You know My Name

http://www.jamesbond-fr.com/news-122...y-To-Die-.html
I know the player with the slick trigger finger for Her Majesty
Another one with the golden tone voice and then your fantasy

Another bill from a killer turned a thrill into a tragedy

A door left open
A woman walking by
A drop in the water
A look in the eye
A phone on the table
A man on your side
A someone that you think that you can trust
It’s just another way to die

Another tricky little gun giving solace to the one that will never see the sunshine
Another inch of your life sacrificed for your brother in the nick of time

Another dirty money, heaven sent honey turning on a dime

A door left open
A woman walking by
A drop in the water
A look in the eye
A phone on the table
A man on your side
A someone that you think that you can trust
It’s just another way to die

My only input is that it's kind of boring.

Yeah, White should have aimed for a more contemporary feel, akin to St. Andrews.

I think it sounds a lot better than that horrible Chris Cornell song from Casino Royale....I like the piano, the band instruments, and the deep bass.

There are so many chick singers out there with super hot voices, why can't we dig one of them up to wail a tune.

I thought Casino royale's theme sounded awful until saw the movie. I guess being associated with an awesome movie helps it in my mind.

Full version of the song. it REALLY needs to grow on me.

I like the theme song for The World Is Not Enough (which is also one of the most underrated Bond flicks, IMO, it's right up there with Goldeneye)

I'm down. Fortunately, I've seen pretty much all the Bond films (I may have seen 1 or 2 in partial).

And yes, I am a fan. I got hooked when my dad showed me my first Bond film back in 4th or 5th grade. Of course, back in those days the idea was to see Goldeneye which went with my kick ass N64 game. But, my dad being the retro-cool guy he is showed me Dr. No and Goldfinger and Live and Let Die.

I stand by my assessment. I love Pierce, his charisma is top-notch. He matches Connery in charisma, just not wit/Bond-physique. And, I really like Goldeneye and The World Is Not Enough (even though miss juggs aka Denise Richards can't act for shit).
