The New James Bond Theme...Another Way to Die
Thursday, September 18, 2008
I love James Bond movies....I do. I've got about every one on dvd somewhere. I've got an album of every James Bond theme song. Most of them are cool. When I found out Jack White and Alicia Keys were collaborating on the theme for Quantum of Solace, I thought this could be really cool! Well, what came out today is half cool/half awful. I love the instrumental part of it. Very cool and almost classic Bond sounding. The lyrics though...hmmm. I think it would have been better to just let Jack White sing. His part sounds ok. It sounds like Jack White. Alicia Keys though sounds at some points off key. She's trying to sing with Jack White and when she tries to sing high like Jack does, it just sounds bad. Its like hearing Alica Keys in a White Stripes song. It just doesn't sound right. I've listened to it quite a few times to try and like it more. Its a tough one though. I really really really don't like Amy Winehouse. I think she's one of the most disgusting women on the planet. Sorry if you're offended. She was reportedly supposed to do a theme before they gave it to Jack White and Alicia Keys. I'm starting to think they should have let her do it. I dunno.....only time will tell if I end up liking it.
Have a listen for yourself....
