No desire to see the film & I'm not a follower of Adele, but the theme song to 'Skyfall' is really good.

Its a good effort i grant you Arthur. The film wasn't too bad either. It was better than a Quantum of Solace and a lot of the last Brosnan OTT era efforts.

A good topic Saint I vote for "Nobody Does It Better" as well. It is just so sublimely good and calming, following the drama of the ski chase and the extremely well filmed cinematic ski jump ending. The best introduction to a Bond film. Best music score is from On Her Majesty's Secret Service. The film's theme tune (also very good) is repeated throughout the film during action sequences. The film also includes the song "We Have All the Time in the World", sung very nicely by Louis Armstrong.

Good thread The Saint I like Arthur's nomination but this one just pips it in my opinion:
Me too Steve about the only thing of Paul McCartney's I've ever really liked.

Yes, I like Live and Let Die and also A View to A Kill. How about For Your Eyes Only from 1981, another great tune... Or the Octopussy theme from 1983... The Saint

Interesting how the song for Octopussy (by Rita Coolidge) failed to become a big hit in the USA & UK.
I assume it is because it is a fairly run-of-the-mill song (despite the writing pedigree of Tim Rice-John Barry). And Rita, although a stalwart, was not in a high-profile part of her career in 1983.

The clear winner for me is "Nobody does it better" by Carly Simon Steed

My favourite Bond theme is 'The Living Daylights' by A-ha.
