Chris Cornell's CD "Carry On" is released today, it features You Know My Name as the final track. Maybe this time it'll actually be the elusive version used in the film itself? :cooltongue:

Carry On came out in the UK last week with two bonus tracks, and i have to inform you that the version on this is the Music Video version, which is still great. I loved this album especially No Such Thing.

Our good friend Paul McCartney has a new album out today. It's been playing all day inside the Starbucks here at Disney Studios.

Have being reading a few reviews of Cornell's new album on the net. They all include a comment about "the Bond song" and they are mostly unfavourable too.

Really? The vast majority of those I've read have referred to YKMN as one of the best, if not THE best song on the album.

I found YKMN to be the best song on that album actually, something I didn't expected. The album was very good actually, but miles away from "Euphoria Morning".

Bought it last week. It's much more easy listening than I thought. There aint many rockin' in the tracks. Much more quieter tracks. Though, I still enjoyed it very much.

Tepid, boring, not typical Cornell, etc.

Is there anything more useless in modern society than a music critic? We all know what kind of music we like, don't we?

I have to agree with the critics as I really don't care much for the album either.

A fair point. Hard to judge a song like 'You Know My Name' because it seemed to grow on a lot of fans over time (at least that is what many have said of their own interest in it).

I picked it up a few days ago but just loaded it on my iPod. It's the first time I've heard anything off it (except YNMN, of course). Not bad. There are a few songs with some replay value. I'll need to listen to it a few more times before passing final judgment.

I love that song in any form, but I'm a little miffled Chris Cornell beat my band to the punch as far as covering it goes. :cooltongue:

A pretty solid album from Chris Cornell, with the highlights in my opinion being his take on 'Billie Jean' and, of course, 'You Know My Name'.

A YKMN instrumental by some fellow by the name of Chris Rock on an album called Bond Themes is there. I will get it, sounds like a decent rendition.
