Black Sabbath Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I've never seen any of the Craig Bond movies (even though I own Casino Royale ), and I was a bit hesitant when I heard Adele was doing the song for the new one, but this is pretty good!

Amir Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 (edited) I like some Adele songs (Rolling in the Deep, Rumour Has It), was really looking forward to this, but I'm really disappointed. It just sounds like a pastiche of greater Bond themes (namely the Shirley Bassey ones).The best modern Bond theme was Chris Cornell's You Know My Name (the rock version, not the neutered one they ended up actually using in the opening credits).Edit: I also love her cover of The Cure's Lovesong. May even prefer it to the original. Still can't give Skyfall more than a 'meh', though. Looking forward to the film, regardless.

WhazUp Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 ^ You Know Your Name is fantastic! My favorite as well, although I really like Another Way to Die by Jack White and Alicia Keys and The World Is Not Enough by Garbage in terms of modern Bond tunes. I really like Skyfall but not as much as the ones I listed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumble's Bridge Pickup Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Decent.Does that one guy still write all the Bond tunes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevelle Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Decent tune, but I'm getting really sick of Adele. Muse has been gunning for the Bond theme for years, I want to hear their crack at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redhead74 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 (namely Shirley Bassey)And that's no easy task.Well done Adele!Agreed. This is classic Bond. What's to complain about? It's got all the elements and exactly what Bond lovers expect. It's sexy and moody and while I was watching it I was imagining Daniel Craig (the best Bond since Sean Connery) and his gorgeous eyes (and biceps!) doing whatever he does that is so goddamn sexy!

Johnny Drama Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Fuck Adele.Why? You don't talk about music much these days. Just beefcake shit. What the fuck man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChineseDemocracy2004 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I liked that.I think all of the Daniel Craig films have great theme songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lithium Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Fuck Adele.Why? You don't talk about music much these days. Just beefcake shit. What the fuck man.Because she's overplayed and boring as fuck. And she's fat. I guess I kinda lost interest in discovering new music a few years ago. I do still come around this section every once in a while to put the idiots in their place, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Drama Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Shes definitely overplayed but I love that shes bern able to sell a fuck tonne of records when that just hasn't happened to anyone in a long long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 It's a solid track. Perhaps a bit formulaic or generic as far as a Bond theme goes, but the vocals are solid and since it's the 50th Anniversary of Bond, I can see why they chose this direction.

username Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 It's absolutely awesome. Just like anything Adele ever put out. But the thing that makes it even better is that it's not typical Adele. It's out of her comfort zone and very James Bond! Reminds me of the classic Bond songs, like the Shirley ones. Great stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She sounds like a busker to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're a dick quite often but your opinions on music usually make some sense. This one doesn't even make the slightest bit of sense. Overplayed is not her fault and her weight doesn't matter to her performance, which is amazing. If you'd just say you hate her sound that's a fair opinion, but this is just lame.

Ghost_Guns Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I wasn't going to listen until I saw the film for some reason, I'm sure it will be even better after the kick ass opening scenes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fucking mundane - at least girls like Amy Winehouse had something slightly different to offer. "Ooooh, she's on the heavy side and she still made it big! She's such a great role model for kids!". Fucking spare me. I would rather punch myself as hard as I can in the balls than hear one of those three songs of hers that gets constantly (and that isn't a hyperbole, I really do mean "constantly") played.It's the fucking entry-level fake, plastic version of soul/r&b. It's music for 15 year old girls who's just gotten dumped for the first time. Edited October 6, 2012 by Lithium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
