Well,

According to MTV News holland a thought was proposed to the singing aussie sisters Kylie and Dannii Minoque. They are asked to perform the 21st Bond theme song after Madonna. And have a little cameo in the movie itself as well. Talk about copycat behaviour! haha. Well, I wonder what it's going to look like to see Kylie and Dannii have a little hot threesome with Bond. I don't know if they actually are going to do the thing, MTV Holland make it sound like they already agreed, but the new film hasn't even premiered yet, so things might change in the near future. Just reporting what I heard!!!

Have a great day!!!

Way too early to tell. I remember seeing a TWINE rumor that Metallica would do the title theme. Obviously that didn't happen.

Anyway, I really hope either of them stays away from the film. I don't care for Kylie and I don't think we need another pop song for Bond 21 (though I like the DAD theme!)

[Blue Eyes]

I find that news hilarious really. Kylie - okay, yeah she'd sell well in a few regions. Danni? Is that meant to be funny?

And all up, honestly, this early in the game?

[Bryce (003)]

I say it's too early to tell.....

As to canidates, that's a tough one. They've certainly "covered the waterfront" on talent and music in 40 years.

Maybe it's time for a repeat.

I wouldn't mind hearing Sir Paul again if he were game...and whatever DID become of the unreleased stuff Clapton did in the late 80's?

When was the last time we had a great intrumental piece? An OHMSS for the new century would be cool.

[walther]

A friend said Nelly should perform the next Bond theme...HA!

[License To Kill]

I would love to see Tom Petty or The Rolling Stones to do a hard ballad for Bond 21.

Folks...folks...I am still waiting for Sir Elton to work his magic on the series.

[BondChick4ever8]

Oh my god Nelly would be hilarious! But I don't think that'll go over so well...he's not really 'the bond type' but could u imagine Nelly singing "Pimp Juice" In Bond 21? LOL Just the thought of it makes me laugh!

[RayBros007]

I think that either Sting, Elton John, or U2 should do the next theme;) ...

Yes we will now a man see do the Title song again.
I wil see Elton John do it and mabey a cameo as Villian for him in Bond 21.
For the first time i heard Madonna, i think o no,but i like it now.
Mabey for the same story about U2.
But i wil heard not a Rock song like Tombraider as title song.
sting,i don't no.

I wil see Tom Jones for the second time do the Title song of a Bond movie.
Mabey a Cameo for him to in the movie.

Bryce, I like your idea of an instrumental theme a la OHMSS. And McCartney is always welcome.

I have another suggestion, although this is a name that will probably mean very little (if anything) to CBners outside the UK: Ian Brown (former lead singer of now-defunct 80s and 90s British rock group The Stone Roses turned solo artist). I've been listening to his new album "Remixes of the Spheres" and have been struck by how Bondian much of it sounds; maybe he's a David Arnold fan. I think Brown would be an excellent choice either for a theme song or an instrumental piece.

[JackChase007]

Well, there's one thing that's certain - get David Arnold and Don Black involved.

I've been saying for years now, and have wanted this for Die Another Day back before there was even a title or cast - where's an instrumental theme? Have Arnold team up with Propellerheads again. I'm telling you - it would be great.

Just as long as Arnold's composing, and Madonna's keeping away from this one (her song, in my opinion, is just horrific).

[Predator_007]

Like the idea of Ian Brown, but I just think most would be turned off by that slightly snearing, nasal voice of his (not very sexy cool super spy really ...)

My vote would be for Muse ... anthemic, expansive and if you listen to their last album, I could swear 'Magalomania' is a Bond theme already ...

[SeanValen00V]

Sting would be my choice. After Madonna, there's not much talent flying around, but a established artist like Sting, always creative, would be refreshing, Madonna could sing another one, I don't mind, if she wants too, but after so many women singing it, I enjoy Tom Jones Thunderball, and Aha The Living Daylights alot, so male artists should not be excluded.

Sting's done soundtracks for films, vastly clever with lyics, I always wanted Madonna to do a Bond tune, and when I heard she was doing it, got my wish, now I hope Sting does it, he's British like Bond, popular, talented, why not.

I've always wanted to see Seal perform the song... see if he can have the same success he had with "Kiss From A Rose" for the "Batman Forever" soundtrack. He's also my favorite musician... even though it takes forever for him to release his albums... usually worth the wait.

[Adam]

Even though she's disappeared off the face of the planet, I think Fiona Apple would be great...just play "Criminal" during any of the title sequences and you'll see how it fits.

Wow, been awhile since I've heard his name...

Seal actually wouldn't be a bad idea - good call. If he teamed up with Arnold and Black, I"m sure they could produce a very solid song.

[iceberg]

Like the idea of Seal doing the next Bond Theme.

And for a "oh-what-the-hell/wishful-thinking" choice, I'd like Enigma's Michael Cretu as a candidate. Or Delerium. But of course, that will never happen.

[Alexborn007]

Call me crazy, but I think Radiohead could do a very bizarre and eclectic theme. Bjork could do an interesting job too, but I'm too busy thinking about DAD to be concerned with Bond Blackjack right now.

[rafterman]

just so long as it's a male singer and Arnold cowrites it with Don Black...

[Felix_Leiter]

Bond 21 theme song must be done by The Rolling Stones. I can't believed they have been overlooked for so long. It would be bloody amazing! Can you even fathom how intense and brilliant it would be? Maybe, dare I say, a cameo by The Stones? It's time for a male singer(s) to do the theme song. Remember "Thunderball"? "Live and Let Die"? "The Living Daylights"? "A View to a Kill"? All of them classics. I think I've proven my point.

[Martini]

[jeff319]

Metallica would be a FANTASTIC choice. Look at the orchestrated versions of "Until it Sleeps" and "Outlaw Torn," those songs sound like they could be Bond themes.

[Peaceful]

I've heard a rumour that they (the producers) may ask duran to do another one
Not sure if this is true or not

[Tedley King]

What about DAVID GRAY singing a kind of 'Thunderball' meets 'Live And Let Die' kind of song?

[Citan Trevelyan]

Anyone BUT Madonna...*Shudders*

[Felix_Leiter]

If not the Rolling Stones, why not go the OHMSS route and have it be an instrumental piece? OHMSS theme is absolutely brilliant, something like that could really shake things up.

ps. Someone mentioned the idea of Duran Duran doing it again. I think that might actually be a good idea.

[IrishCrown]

William Shatner, or bust.

[Double oh Ten]

I wouldnt mind seeing someone bring an RnB or Latino feel to the Bond song like Garbage and Sheryl Crow brought an indy feel to the theme.

[SeanValen00V]

Dido would be a great choice as well, British, beautiful, talented, succesful.

I like the Seal choice as well.
