007 - ALL OPENINGS from the Daniel Craig Era (youtube.com)
The first three are very close for me, I switched them around a few times making this post:
- Casino Royale
- Skyfall
- No Time To Die
- Spectre
- Quantum of Solace
Sam Smith’s “Writing’s on the Wall” is the most evocative theme song for me, just so very solemn and sad.
I have only ever purchased two Bond themes. That one and Goldeneye.
I ignore the Daniel Craig era altogether.
He’s a great actor, nothing to do with him.
Skyfall was quite unique
As a Soundgarden / Audioslave fan, it’s always going to be Chris Cornell with “You know my name” from Casino Royale. It really took me by surprise when I saw the film for the first time. Wasn’t expecting a rock track opening.
There is also the Radiohead version of Spectre:
Was just going to mention that the rejected themes are often better than the ones used. There’s also an alternate of Quantum of Solace that’s pretty good.
