3. The Quantum Of Solace Theme Wasn't That Bad
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUHD0cdQmko When the theme song for Quantum of Solace was unveiled to the public in the weeks before the movie's release, people reacted as though they'd been personality attacked; as if Daniel Craig had walked up to each and every one and spat in their dinner or something. Truth is, "nother Way To Die - courtesy of Jack White and Alicia Keys (how very 2008!) isn't quite as bad as everyone made it out to be at the time. No, it's not quite "Goldfinger" and it doesn't do anywhere near as good a job as Casino Royale's You Know My Name. But still... it's just a Bond song, and as far as Bond songs go, it's alright. It's far, far, far better - and more memorable - than the forgettable disappointment that Sam Smith just delivered with Spectre's Writing's On The Wall. Another Way To Die is a mid-level Bond theme, and one that never really deserved all the hatred. Have another listen. Catchy, huh?
