Original theme song planned for "Thunderball" replaced by the Tom Jones - sung title tune

Tom Jones literally passed out on his last killer high note.

A non singer that looks like an elf from Lord of the Rings.

The lyrics to Goldfinger make sense as an exposition of the sinister character of the villain, while Shirley Bassett’s powerful voice delivers them in a compelling manner. The combination has rarely been equalled.

Live and Let Die, and it’s not even close. George Martin still had it.

I thought people liked that one! I never watch anything any more.

The songs are good though, I like the Adele one too.

By fav Bassey Goldfinger.

In the trailer they claim the film is Bond 25, but that’s inaccurate. The Broccoli family only counts their productions. Never Say Never Again starring Connery is not a Broccoli production and neither is the original farce Casino Royale. So this will actually be the 27th film.

How can you say Bond film with Connery is not a Bond film?
