Billie Eilish has written/is performing the theme for James Bond: 'No Time To Die'
|
We love a Bond emo phase
|
you have no idea how many "bad guy" jokes are in the replies
|
Billies stuff is very hit and miss for me, I won’t judge until I’ve seen it.
|
Some of the most iconic traits of Bond themes are the big, powerful ballad style songs and I worry that Billie’s vocal is too understated to live up to what we are used to hearing.
|
Meh, there've been plenty of good Bond themes that don't subscribe to the Shirley Bassey/Adele/Tina Turner trope.
Nancy Sinatra's is my personal favourite and it's just a subtle, crooning, slightly psychedelic ballad. Carly Simon's is a close second and she's not really a vocal powerhouse either. Of the recent bunch, Chris Cornell (RIP) was very good with a rock song as well. Garbage did "The World Is Not Enough" and I could see Eilish being in the same vein as that. |
A decent choice IMO
|
My favourite James Bond theme has always been A View To A Kill.

Tulisa robbed yet again

Looking forward to Billie's. I thought it would be Lewis Capaldi but thankfully it isn't they got someone better. |

I do like billie, she’s incredibly talented, I just haven’t got into her stuff that much yet, looking forward to her sophomore album.
as for the soundtrack hoping for an eerie tune, (also i’m probably the only person that thinks this but madonna’s die another day is still brilliant to me) |
It will never be as good as Live and Let Die
in fact it will be no where close |
I find her excruciatingly overrated
|
A very good choice, I think she'll hit it out of the park. She does have a few songs that remind me of some of the more understated Bond songs.
After Sam Smith's dreadful attempt at emulating talent far greater than his own, I'm totally down for them stepping away from the big ballad style. |

Tbf I dont think her song will be bad.. it makes a nice change from the sam smith/adele ballad types |
would've loved Lana though

Good luck to her.
Most James Bond songs are normally good so I'm hoping for the same here. |

To be fair Sam Smith has got a uniquely beautiful voice ... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro |
But why?
It is really random. |

I'd agree .... Some of her songs are just stunning but the majority kinda skate over my head .. maybe they're 'growers' like the new Coldplay album .... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro |
