Went for Tom Jones. Just the energy and talent he did for "Thunderball"

Tom Jones is really the only male solo artist to sing the in the title credits. I just realized that. So I voted for him.

Matt Monro for me. I just can't get enough of that From Russia With Love song. I even sang it once for one of my tests in one of my college vocal classes.

Matt Murno was okay singing FRWL . Yet Tom Jones was great with Thunderball . To me it's the equal of Shirley Bassey with Goldfinger .

Doesn't Paul McCartney and Wings qualify for this thread? If not, then I'll go with Tom Jones.

I've come to like it more and more. The version on Arnold's cover album is good as well.

Where's Herb Albert? By far my favorite of the Bond themes (and, no, not the one with the vocals.)

Since Paul is excluded, although Wings only contribution was being Paul's backing band, I would say Tom Jones. He really put a lot into his performance.

I went with Matt Monroe as I appreciate that great crooning style that worked so well for FRWL. I liked Tom Jone's TB as well.

Yes, and Barry and Norman are composers. Seems like if you're including them, you should include the bands with male singers. Oh well, it's your thread. But I'm not voting.
