Full agreement.Both are somewhat forgettable, but while "Another Way to Die" is more than a little irritating and ill-fit to the narrative concerns of QUANTUM OF SOLACE, "No Good About Goodbye" has a measure of elegance, successfully reflects the emotional core of the story, and showcases the lovely vocal talents of Miss Bassey. So "No Good About Goodbye" wins out, even though, ideally, Bond would get a far better title song than either of them.

"Another Way to Die" got my vote.

The Harkster has already done that:I'm still waiting for the inevitable mash-up of "No Good About Goodbye" with the QUANTUM OF SOLACE title sequence.

Oh, that fits very well. Better than imagined. And it makes the title sequence come alive more than "Another Way to Die" does.The Harkster has already done that:I'm still waiting for the inevitable mash-up of "No Good About Goodbye" with the QUANTUM OF SOLACE title sequence.
Considering intent, I'm much happier with what AWTD attempts to do. Considering the final result, I'm happier with NGAG. AWTD is pretty terrible.AWTD easily, this Bassey thing is ok but it's just generic Bond soundalike, which I suspect some would be quite happy with.

I'd take TND, TWINE, and DAD over AWTD, personally. None of those songs sat particularly well with me, but AWTD brought things to a whole new level of sloppiness.Impressively done and it seemed to fit for me anyway but I still prefer AWTD in my view it's not terrible, flawed but Crowe, Garbage & Madonna were much worse.

Yes, but much like the film itself, it's only successful in representing something interesting, rather than being something interesting.Another Way to Die; it represents something interesting.

Age 28 - Bassey.I would be curious to the ages of the varied posters and voters.
(...)
At 46, I am one of the older fans and between the two songs--prefer the Bassey one.

Of course, if you don't think that AWTD is complete mess the whole analogy falls apart.Yes, but much like the film itself, it's only successful in representing something interesting, rather than being something interesting.Another Way to Die; it represents something interesting.
Anyway, in my mind this discussion all boils down to this:
Would you rather have a reheated hamburger ("No Good About Goodbye"; generic, not too interesting, but doesn't go down too badly), or an experimental dish that tries for a refreshing and bold combination of flavors but ends up being a complete mess ("Another Way to Die"; interesting in intent, but failed--if not outright irritating--in its finished form)? If I was just going off of the menu, I'd take the latter. But if I was allowed to sample the finished dishes before choosing, I'd go with the former.
