Wow...so much confusion and lack of information regarding a the "single" launch.

 

7:45AM BST??? They could have made it just 00h GMT, the simple global reference...and also UK friendly, by the way.

 

Also it would be nice to see some reference to the youtube or sites where it will be premiered in 007.com or SamSmith's site.

 

Seems like only those who are Bond fans know that the single is coming out!! It makes no sense if you're trying to promote a movie, even if it's such a classic as 007. They could've done better managing the fans expectations.

 

Anyway...fingers crossed!

Last time around it was a Friday morning, just after midnight in fact. I think Skyfall the single was available to download at 00:07 BST.

But what's a few more hours?

It's going to reach Number 1 in the UK charts, making it the most successful Bond song ever in Britain.

You seem confident of this Dave - based on the strength of the 15 second snippet I'd say you could be right.

Can't wait for this... keep checking to see if it's out (leaked early) yet.

It´s absolutely astonishing that the song did not leak early.  Kudos to the security teams!

With less than two hours to go, must say it's been pretty incredible that it never leaked. Very impressive!

Same here. I keep refreshing now and then hoping one of you would find a hidden leak somewhere. 

 

It always feels so surreal to me adding a new theme to the lineup we are all so familiar with at this point.

Gentlemen, just to be perfectly clear about this: anybody linking to the leaked song - should there even be leaks - is going to get in trouble. I'm confident CBn doesn't attract members dumb enough to risk their status as members for a mere few minutes of waiting longer. It's going to be out there officially soon enough.

Thank you.

I'll add- sorry about the pics of the Empire article I uploaded last night- didn't realise we weren't allowed to do that any more.

Hmmm, bring back Adele. The high-pitched crooning, as expected. 

 

Meh. Might get better on repeat listenings but...

No. Not a fan of that one at all. And, with Adele, it grabbed me straight away even as I wasn't a fan.

 

Sorry Sam, but this isn't one for me at all.
