'Another Way To Die' - QoS Theme.
 
I've had countless conversations about this song.


There's the video.

Personally, I love thesong, and I think it goes very well for a modern Bond Movie. The song suits Daniel Craig's image as Bond much more, than the songs that were made for Pierce Brosnan's Bond.

Where Pierce Brosnan's James Bond was more sexy, and typical English gentleman like, Daniel Craig's Bond has more emotion and has a more... suave and style.

What is your view?

And for the record: This is the first time I'm actually listening to Alicia Key's and Jack White really. I'm usually not a western indie rock or RnB guy, but I do love this song.

Interesting song.

Jaydelart 11-03-2008 08:12 PM

This is the new Bond theme song?
It's pretty nice. I hold a lot of respect for Alicia Keys, so I expected as much.

Keaton421 11-03-2008 08:31 PM

Anything with Jack White is alright by me. Lots of talent there, plus we're basically twins.

And I'm always up for a new direction on the Bond flicks. Cool song

Crani 11-03-2008 08:32 PM

Jack White is not country, he's in the White Stripes and they are an Indie rock band...
And the song it self is so so.

And fair enough. Like I said, I never actually listened, or knew him before this song.

MissMisa 11-03-2008 09:50 PM

To be perfectly honest, I don't like it. I just don't think it works properly, they are both conflicting styles that just can't seem to coincide. I've only heard it a couple of times, maybe it's one of those that'll grow on me, but for now I don't hate it, but I think it's just alright. I really loved 'The World is Not Enough' by Garbage.

Bureda 11-03-2008 10:31 PM

The tune is all right. Very artistic and funky with some upbeat spikes, but still, it holds no penny to Nancy Sinatras 'You Only Live Twice'.

Aniki 11-04-2008 02:01 AM

I didn't like the song much. As Misa stated earlier, those two don't fit together. So I'm sticking Bureda, it's nothin' compared with Nancy Sinatra's 'You Only Live Twice'.
But seeing how Craig plays his role, I agree, it suits him.

I consider Daniel Graig the worsest James Bond. I don't know where you got that "Craig has more emotion" stuff 'cause I didn't see nothing like that in him. To me he was another badass super hero, which Hollywood is full of and if I want THAT to see, then I'll watch Tom Cruise in 'Mission Imposible' or Vin Diesel in 'XXX'.
And when it comes to suave and style Sean Connery is the only man.


PS: The White Stripes are considered a Garage rock band not Indie Rock.

Keaton421 11-04-2008 02:55 AM

Sean Connery and Craig played two very different Bonds. But it's a stretch to call Daniel Craig another macho tough guy - in fact, the first movie demonstrates how vulnerable and human he is, and how the experience turned him into the cold-blooded Russian-killing womanizer we know and love

I like the song but I don't think it really suits the movie and the way this new bond acts.
I like the new bond because he doesn't use any gay weapons and is a regular guy, not some smooth talking swauve cat who likes to chase tail on missions. I dunno where "Craig has more emotion" came from either but I agree only Sean Connery had real style.

One thing doesn't stop the other, they can be Garage Rock and an Indie Rock band.

theAlphaDuck 11-05-2008 02:43 PM

hmmm i likes...its not the usual...and thats good

noodle 11-05-2008 02:55 PM

I HATE the chorus... But the rest of the song is really nice. I like the tune and beat when they're not screaming... Plus, I can barely hear Keys' voice, which is a shame cos she has an amazing voice.

They can be whatever they want to be. I'm was just stating that The White Stripes are always classified as a Garage rock band, NOT Indie Rock. You can look up in Wiki or in any of their fan sites, and you'll see that for yourself.

Uriko 11-05-2008 06:37 PM

i love alicia keys but

jack white sucks. he can go disappear off the face of the earth & take the white stripes with him.

i don't like the white stripes. him changing the female he's performing with doesn't help him in any way to sound better.

as for james bond, i could care less which actor portrays him 'cause it's the same character & james bond doesn't appeal to me as an awesome person.

so i guess the song does suit the movie very well.

(the only reason i got through the whole song was 'cause salv said he liked it.)

Suki 11-05-2008 06:45 PM

I don't really like the song but I think it goes real well with the whole James Bond thing.
