I love it. I wish they would do something similiar next time. We need a good ballad type song for a change.

It's funny. I never like a Bond Theme when I first hear it. Moonraker IS a great piece of Bond. I sometimes think that they could churn out anything because as time goes on you just grow to like it.

It's hauntingly beautiful and I love the way it plays with the movie.

Agreed, DLibrasnow. I must be one of the few people that rate Moonraker as their favourite of the three Shirley Bassey title songs.

Great Barry melody. Much better song and score than his next Bond effort OP. Very reminiscent of what he did for Smoewhere in Time as well.
