So I was bored and I compiled a list of the Bond songs starting from Dr. No and yeah I left out Never Say Never Again since it wasn't considered an official Bond movie.

John Barry - James Bond Theme (1962)
Matt Munro - From Russia With Love (1963)
Shirley Bassey - Goldfinger (1964)
Tom Jones - Thunderball (1965)
Nancy Sinatra - You Only Live Twice (1967)
Louis Armstrong - We Have All The Time in the World (1969)
Shirley Bassey - Diamonds Are Forever (1971)
Paul McCartney & Wings - Live and Let Die (1973)
Lulu - The Man with the Golden Gun (1974)
Carly Simon - Nobody Does It Better (1977)
Shirley Bassey - Moonraker (1979)
Sheehan Easton - For Your Eyes Only (1981)
Rita Coolidge - All Time High (1983)
Duran Duran - A View to a Kill (1985)
Ah-Ha - The Living Daylights (1987)
Gladys Knight - Licence to Kill (1989)
Tina Turner - Goldeneye (1995)
Sheryl Crow - Tomorrow Never Dies (1997)
Garbage - The World Is Not Enough (1999)
Madonna - Die Another Day (2002)
Mya - Everything or Nothing (2004)
Chris Cornell - You Know My Name (2006)

My least favourite song of the lot? Madonna's Die Another Day. Good song it may be, but fails as a Bond song (IMHO). Anybody else feels the new Bond's too macho? I feel like I'm watching Die Hard...

Oh btw, I got a brand new weapon!
