It's awful, I hope they change it, as I said on BBC Site it sounds like it was written by a 4 year old, maybe its just a poor section of it but for me if not they have to change it.

I'm not sure about this one...

I would have prefered the Boozy Strumpet to sing it as she can belt out a Dame Basset number with ease.. as long as she isn't wide-eyed and slurring her words.

.... still fit, in a burlesque sort of way... well.. I say burlesque....

What about Paris??

...I look forward to hearing what the song's going to be like. However, this one's shite.

The quality of the audio on the Beeb is shocking! I couldn't listen to more than a few seconds of it so will have to wait to hear how poor the content is too...

Nah... A Reg commenter wrote the best lyrics for the theme, when they first announced the title of the movie back in January... Here they are thanks to the magic of the Related Stories links :

*waahhnnyyahnaahh* He's got a quantum of solace *wahhhnyyaaahnaahhh* And a googleplex of sanctimony *wwwaaahhhnyyaaahhhnaaah* He'll aspirate your apathy *wwwaaahhhnyyyaannaaah* With anaerobic dialysis *waaahhnnyyyaaanaahhh*

...pure class!

Remix? That's what I initially thought I was hearing, with Ringo on drums.

It's pants. Unlike I Am The Walrus, which rocks.

Alicia Keys though, ummmmmm, ooh-er.

Is there a version that hasn't been compressed to hell, so it doesn't sound like a man is shouting in the toilet and stamping on the floor? I like most things that Jack White has done, but I can barely distinguish between the guitars and the drums - it's just a booming sound. I'll wait until I can actually hear the song before I judge it, rather than whine about it being crap based on what might aswell have been a guy down the pub singing it.

Why does everyone think that a Bond theme has to be Shirley Bassey? Only a third of them have been anywhere near that, but every time a new one comes out everyone says "It doesn't sound like a Bond theme". Play the first 40 seconds of Live and Let Die, A View to a Kill, Die Another Day, etc and tell me any of those sound like a Bond theme.

The last Bond film wasn't like a usual Bond film, in that it wasn't predicatable and a bit crappy. Let's hope this new one is also atypical.

"I'm gonna get me a quantum

in my tummy-tum-tum

tum tummy-tum-tum

oh yeah"

*in the style of the song*

Lines with slick trigger finger,

and anything with blinger,

Surely is a minger.

See, improved already.

Paris - because unfortunately she could have done a better job... maybe she can do the naked dancing in the intro-montage and make the song bearable in the cinema! :)
