12 Things You Learn Rewatching Licence To Kill

1. The End Titles Song Is One Of The Series' Best

Licence to Kill's peculiar tonal through-line carries all the way to the closing credits, which feature one of the series' most memorable and catchy end credits songs to date.

Patti LaBelle's "If You Asked Me To" may provide a capper to the cringe-worthy final smooch between 007 and Pam Bouvier, but considering how forgettable so many of Bond's end credits tunes are, its shamelessly melodramatic stylings are really quite effective.

It's all too-apt that the final Bond movie of the 1980s plays audiences out with an unapologetic power ballad, written by the legendary Dianne Warren no less and famously covered by Celine Dion a few years later.

Like the main title song, it's rarely seen in lists of best Bond songs, but the track still has an easy, weirdly comforting power coming at the end of such a ridiculously savage action film. Soak it in.
