I don't think that word means what you think it means.

It's beautiful. Love the big brass right at the beginning! Great way to kick off the song, followed by the piano Bond theme.
Adele has surpassed my expectations.

Smiling.

Definitely smiling.

That was fantastic. That video got the hype up to a point where it hasn't been for me through all of this. BOND IS BACK!

That song just cracked its way into my personal Top 10 fav Bond themes list. Way better going on than the 90 sec preview led on. Everything is amazing and I don't think they were going for a lyrical masterpiece. The whole song just screams they were going for the feel of the cheesy 60's lyrics feel anyway so I'm down with it. Way beyond two thumbs up.

Anyone think the gunbarrel at the start might be a hint at the design we'll see in the film? Maybe, maybe not.

nearly 5 minutes for an opening sequence? I wouldn't think so, the average is around 3 minutes

Isn't that the same as the radio edit, with a bit of padding in the middle?

I think it will be a 5 minute opening. The title sequence in the background went on for that long. Damn I'm excited!
