The theme tune to a James Bond is almost as important as the film itself. There have been some great theme tunes, and some absolute stinkers. So here is the chance to vote for your top 4 James Bond theme tunes. If you would like to make comments on your 4 choices, then please do.
Note: I've discounted instrumentals so the opening credits pieces from Dr No and On Her Majesty's Secret Service are not on the list.
