The Man With The Golden Gun in my opinion.

LOL! There are few things that TMWTGG is better than; but its own theme song is one of those things!

I'd say OHMSS, LALD, MR, AVTAK, TWINE

[Turn]

AVTAK for sure.

[tdalton]

DAF, AVTAK, GE

[rogermoore007]

none of them IMO

Ouch.

I'd say just YOLT, DAF, MR, and AVTAK.

On the flip side, FYEO, OP, and GE were far better than their respective theme songs.

DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER - A stunning, sexy ballad that the film just didn't match in its quality.

LIVE AND LET DIE - A rollicking title song that was far more fun to listen to than the movie was to watch.

A VIEW TO A KILL - The only Bond song to reach #1. The film, in comparison, is the second-worst Bond entry of them all.

THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH - Hardly the best Bond song ever, but it was enjoyable enough. More than can be said for the film that it was tied to.

Just out of interest, what exactly is wrong with the movie TWINE? I thought it was terrific for the most part.

Most likely the most universally hated James Bond film on the CBn Forums (although I'm one that likes it). Just search a few of the threads in the Pierce Brosnan section on the forum to see.

Speaking purely from experience, I wouldn't start that discussion again if I were you

(However, know that you're not alone--TWINE is my favorite Bond movie)

Wow, I thought we'd get shot for admitting to liking TWINE on here. I'm also a fan of it, and I really can't see why people hate it so much, it's nowehere near as bad as TND or DAD.

Back on topic- AVTAK is the obvious choice, and its my favourite Bond theme to date. Others that I think out perform their films include YOLT, DAF and LTK. I actually quite like the LTK theme.

[Andrew]

Diamonds Are Forever definatly comes to mind. The title track is just so haunting opposed to the light-hearted film. It definatly would've fit if they decided to take the revenge route.

I know I'll get hanged for this but I like Nobody Does It Better more than The Spy Who Loved Me, which I find to be the most overrated in the series(but still a good entry nonetheless).

[Number 6]

A View To A Kill is much more memorable as a song than the film ever could be...

I mean I never get tired of hearing that theme but the movie is soooo bland...

[Kingdom Come]

Licence To Kill had a brilliant main title song almost ruined by Binder's clapped out titles. If only Kleinman had done em. . .

I agree. I loved TWINE, and fail to see why it gets such a bad rap when DAD is 1000x worse.

I think DAD is superior. Better a silly, fun romp that's ridiculous, over-the-top, and cheesy than an overacted, heavy-handed, self-important, soap-operaish Bond film.

Moonraker. The title song and the John Barry music score are the only things I liked about the movie. Everything else about it was garbage.

EVERYTHING? What about the great scene when Corrinne is hunted down by the dogs? Or the fight in the glass museum? Just to mention a few examples (I think MOONRAKER is full of cinematic gold, myself).

Not a fan of Tomorrow Never Dies, Carver?

[bondrocks14]

I'm gonna have to go with LALD... I just don't like that movie. Is it just me, or did Connery not look Japanese at all when they tried to make him look Japanese in YOLT. He just ended up looking stupid.

[K1Bond007]

A View to a Kill for sure. I'd also say Live and Let Die. I admit I've never been a fan of LALD, but it's been growing on me lately. Regardless though, the theme song totally goes above and beyond the film. Just overall a great song even if LALD is your favorite film, it still out does it.

I like it enormously, too, and I must admit that I was mystified by the almost universal panning it got from CBn posters when I first started reading the site. Personally, I think it's the most interesting Bond film, storywise, of the Brosnan era, with well-defined characters (Christmas Jones excepted) and clear motivation. I accept that the film is basically unpleasant people doing nasty things to each other; but that was the world Fleming's Bond inhabited. But like OHMSS, Moonraker and Licence To Kill before it, I fully expect TWINE to be reappraised and embraced by fans once a decade or so has passed since its release.

Getting back on topic, I would have to nominate AVTAK
