Same here!

[Qwerty]

.

UPDATE: You Know My Name - Chris Cornell added to the poll choices.

Might need to fix it or something. When I vote for it and hit the vote button. I get an error message saying I didnt click on a button.

Is anyone else who hasn't voted yet getting this problem?

[Johnboy007]

Cornell is not showing up for me.

[Double-O Eleven]

Mine is Moonraker. Shirley Bassey makes that song literally out of this world. Always liked it.

Here, here. Never understand why it hasn't become a standard. Beautiful and exotic.

Me niether, and I really want to vote for that song.

[Qwerty]

PLEASE READ

OK, so here is the deal: the way this forum is set up is that we can have up to three different questions within a poll, and only 20 options per question.

It therefore creates a problem when I want to have 21 options for this question.

What I think I'll do later tonight is change the poll into two questions: pick your favourite song from Dr. No through The Spy Who Loved Me

and

your favourite from Moonraker through Casino Royale

What does everyone think?

[JimmyBond]

I have a similar problem with burning CD's. When we get to Bond 23, I wont have enough space on one Cd to put all the songs, so I'll have to cut one out. The song I'd cut out would be Dr. No, as it's just the Bond theme I wouldnt need it on a compilation disc, and I don't think it needs to be on here either.

Just my opinion though.

[Double-Oh Agent]

I'd suggest doing it by eras such as Sean Connery through Roger Moore (Dr. No through A View To A Kill) and Timothy Dalton through the present (The Living Daylights through the present).

The polls may not be perfectly halved as DN-TSWLM, and MR-CR would be, but the various eras would be kept in tact, which might make the polls an interesting case study in comparing them.

[RazorBlade]

I love the theme from THUNDERBALL. It sets the standard for all Bond themes. I like Chris Cornell's song more than most though.

[Qwerty]

*****

I've made an update to the poll so that the Casino Royale title song is now included. Members who have not previously voted in this poll may now vote twice: once to choose their favourite song from Dr. No-Moonraker and their favourite from For Your Eyes Only-Casino Royale.

[thecasinoroyale]

'A View To A Kill' for me, sounds great and has that...oomph...that many Bond tracks lack. Most of the 80s ones were the best IMO, but now I'm liking the male vocal with 'You Know My Name', making a change for the female vocalists of the last decade!

It has to have that Bond sound...and they have it!!

It is all opinion.

[MR. BOND 93]

Carly Simon- Nobody Does it Better

Chris Cornell- You Know My Name

[capungo]

OK, my choices were

AVTAK-Honestly, I was never the biggest fan of all the choices in Cat. 2. This is the best of the cake so far, as it's got a nice energy to it. Cornell's is rapidly rising in my opinion though.

Nobody Does it Better-Right from the opening piano melody, the song's just pure class. Definitely the best of the slow Bond songs, although You Only Live Twice is also quite good.

If only "We Have all the Time in the World" was eligable for this. Too bad it isn't technicaly a title song.

[cvheady007]

Live and Let Die and Nobody Does It Better are the best Bond themes to be recorded. You Know My Name is a fantastic follower in their footsteps.

[Agent 0015]

My favorites have always been Live and Let Die, For Your Eyes Only, and The Living Daylights.

[PrinceKamalKhan]

I voted for Tom Jones'Thunderball. The lyrics are incredible. It's a great anthem to the man known as Bond, James Bond. Please, I like how the Bond theme is weaved into the song.

Since I could vote in the era from 1980s onwards as well, I picked John Barry's last one, a-ha's The Living Daylights. It was a close battle with A View to a Kill but ultimately TLD wins by giving me fonder memories of a vastly superior Bond film.

[moorebond82]

I voted for LALD and TLD

[Safari Suit]

I voted for A View To A Kill. Why? Because Nobody does it better.

[Athena007]

My top songs are...

The World Is Not Enough -- Garbage
The Living Daylights -- A-Ha (VOTED)
A View To A Kill -- Duran Duran
For Your Eyes Only -- Sheena Easton
Nobody Does It Better -- Carly Simon (VOTED)
From Russia With Love -- Matt Munroe

[Odd Job]

I'd have to go with Live and Let Die with Goldfinger a close second. Great songs from great films.

Until next time

I take my hat off to you

CARLY SIMON?!?!? Oh good lord, you silly, silly people.

I chose Live And Let Die & A View To A Kill. Out of the remaining modern pop themes I'd pick The World Is Not Enough, The Living Daylights, and You Know My Name. From the classic/traditional ones I'd choose On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Thunderball, and From Russia With Love (the opening titles theme, not the end credits song.) Carly Simon, geez.

[Miss Miranda Frost]

I LOVE Nobody Does It Better. The song gives the movie class and also the franchise.

[Qwerty]

Carly Simon, geez.

What don't you like about her Bond song?

[Qwerty]

[Moderator's Note: Poll options amended.

[sharpshooter]

You Know My Name

Such a great chorus, upbeat nature. The song also has a meaning behind it also, for once.
