Marc Almond apparently made a contribution for the title song to Tomorrow never dies. Has anyone any information about that song? Has anything leaked about the one?

Oh no, Marc Almond of Soft Cell. I saw the documentary James Bond's Greatest Hits Documentary and he mentioned it in one of the parts that are available on Youtube. Read about it on Wikipedia and some other site too.

Oh yeah. Marc Almond contributed as much to TND as I did... Unsolicited tapes of people nobody asked to write music for the film doesn't count as a contribution.

Ok, so if they asked him to write something or not, I can't answer to that. I just have his word to go on from the documentary.

He wasn't. I worked on said documentary and they were particularly hooked on these people who claimed they wrote songs when they clearly didn't. They went out to great lengths to have even Alice Cooper when his song is similarly unsolicited.
