Oh RJ, I meant the first two of the Classic Pell picks.
Jon, with Sheena it doesn't matter.
YOU can pick one...I'll gladly take the other, lol!
She always counts!
Personally, I've never been much of a James Bond fan. I can take it or leave it. But I do think the music is cool, even the older non-rock stuff.
Everything here was good. My first thought on that Man With The Golden Gun song was that it's totally tongue-in-cheek. I think the Shirley Bassey (spelling?) songs are very good. And I liked that Matt Munroe song From Russia With Love.
But instead of a Golden Pell this week, I'll give a Classic Pell. And it's a three-way tie, for Live And Let Die, Nobody Does It Better and For Your Eyes Only. The latter because she was way hot and it's the only movie I saw at the theater, and probably the only one I've seen from beginning to end.
See? NOTHING BEATS GOLDFINGER!!!!!!
Of course, there's this:
Trivia: Shirley Bassey sang the most JB title songs, "Goldfinger", "Diamonds Are Forever" and "Moonraker".
"We Have All The Time In The World" was not played during the opening credits of OHMSS, but was used later in the movie. Underrated movie, follows the book very closely plus it's the only movie in which JB is married, which is why he visits the cemetery at the beginning of "For Your Eyes Only".
One of the very first albums I bought was the soundtrack of "The Spy Who Loved Me" which had a disco-fied version of the James Bond theme. That was the first ever Bond movie I saw in a theater and I was immediately hooked.
Sheena Easton was the first (and only) artist to have appeared in the opening credits. Wonder why?
Hey, you mentioned some of these facts! You smart!
I just love the James Bond songs, no matter if they're rock or not. That's how I roll!
THIS IS THE BEST PROGRAM EVER! Now, if you did it in November, that would have been extra special. November is Bond month for me, I watch a ton of Bond during the month. I actuall bought the Bond 50 blu-ray set last year, then bought all the single releases, plus have two different sets on DVD and a VHS set. Does this make me a fan?
I am a Bond freak.
