Hoppy sent me an MD
Hoppy sent me an MD of ‘The best of James Bond’. I have a few of those on vinyl, but this is a recent release. I hereby present my ‘Top 5 James Bond tunes’
- From Russia with Love - Matt Munro
- Thunderball - Tom Jones
- Diamonds are forever - Shirley Bassey
- Goldfinger - Shirley Bassey
- Goldeneye - Tina Turner (written by Bono & theEdge)
Bubbling under: Nancy Sinatra’s You Only Live Twice
Some of the other songs are excellent but for their interpreters… Sheryl Crow for example kills Tomorrow Never Dies, a skimpy voice where a diva is needed. I quite liked Duran Duran’s View to a Kill, but it hasn’t aged well.
What’s your favourite?
Oh… and if you must know, Sean Connery of course.
