They just did a Bond parody on Lazytown (kids TV) The music was half decent if you listened with half an ear and it got me thinking about Bond themes and film scores..

What are your favourites..?

I'll kick off with this classic.. 😀

for me.

Although Carly Simon and Wings run it close.

Burly Chassis was a favourite of my mum's, so Goldfinger brings back lots of memories.
It also won the 'song most obviously about a penis' award in 1964.

Which channel is LazyTown on? Not been on CBeebies for ages (thankfully!)...saying that Channel 5 has just done an advert for it...

For actual themes, Skyfall is growing on me but I think it is because it sounds like a classic Bond theme, Shirley-esque...

Music from a scene...quite a few but I need to have a think...

Carly Simon for me. Adele's for the latest wasn't bad either.

Theme wise:

A big tune for a new bond (at the time)

I think Casino's was massively under-rated.

Also, here's a rejected theme for Quantum which would have been much better IMO

Anyone else ever listened to bond themes while out riding some 'gnar'. If you're at all susceptsable to mood music, don't - it doesn't end well.. 😳

I reckon Adele's is pretty good, but surely it has to be Live and Let Die?

View to a kill

That does definitely win the award for best silly noises in a bond theme.

Followed by The Living Daylights, A View to a Kill and The Spy Who Loved Me.

Saying that, Goldfinger is pretty awesome.

The entire score for Thunderball is fantastic, IMHO.

Edit: The finished version even better )
