Like Casino Royale did, the opening song by Alicia Keys and Jack White in Quantum of Solace might have some hidden messages related to the movie in the lyrics.

You should remember in You Know My Name the line -for example- "The odds will betray you" this might be directed to Mathis and the line "Looks like your odds are improving Mr. Bond"

So what is hidden here?

I found this:

A door left open: Mr. Slate's door left open so Bond could enter his room in hotel Desalines and confront him
A woman walking by: Camille?
A drop in the water: Dominic Greene's geologist in the water
A look in the eyes: N/A yet
A phone on the table: N/A yet
A men on your side: Perhaps Mitchell and his betrayal to MI6.
A someone that you think hat you can trust: Carlos (Bolivian police chief) betrays Mathis and orders his officials to kill him.

Is just Another way to die.

So, can anyone think of more stuff hidden in the introduction/ending?

No. It was just a terrible song. Don't bother reading into it.
Bring back Chris Cornell!

To me "A man on your side" was Bond on Camille's side. But I think you've got something there as well.

I think "a look in the eyes" refers to either-

- that weird look Greene always seems to have in his eyes. creepy.

or

- the moment when Camille was telling Bond she wanted to free him from his prison and you could see DC getting teary eyed (at least I thought so).

Thought about this before seeing the film, so here's two that harkens back to CR

A drop in the water: Vesper drowning
A phone on the table: Vesper leaving her phone on the table for Bond

[Professor Dent]

A door left open: Mr. Slate's door left open so Bond could enter his room in hotel Desalines and confront him

Bond had to pry the door open to get in so it doesn't quite fit here. After Bond & Camille get back to the hotel from the desert, the door to the hotel room was left ajar so it's possibly this one.
