  • Ewwww!!! Chills ....Love this song.

  • some people live and die successful. I am one who will live tough and die tough.

  • Those of us who listened to these theme songs when they were new back in 1964 are very fortunate.Goldfinger was an awesome movie for it's time! Rest in Peace John Barry.

  • @Halftrac Goldfinger's an awesome movie for ANY time...more charisma in its little finger than all of today's movies...

  • Rest in Peace Great Maestro! John Barry's ALL musics were wonderful, especially Bond themes.

  • It was my pipe dream to interview him and sit at a piano with him playing and discussing music...Weirdly...earlier this year I was playing nobody does it better on a piano while a girl sang the song...after the concert this guy comes up and says pity about John Barry passing away...guess you did that as a tribute....My heart sank a thousand miles....

  • @musicalglenn Sorry, but what has "nobody does it better" got to do with John Barry? That song was a joint collaboration between Marvin Hamlisch, Carol Bayer Sayer and Carly Simon. Great song, but John Barry had nothing to do with it.

  • @MsIrma007 I am aware of it. I just meant the whole 007 theme song thing brought up the conversation about John Barry.

  • He is gone. I'm very sad.

    I want to listen to his new music more and more.

  • He wasn't very old when he died. So very sad.

  • Love how the drummer is chewing gum and acting all cool.

  • R.I.P.

  • hah one dislike

  • A quick message to say thanks for posting this clip of one of our favourite musicians - RIP Mr Barry. Had the pleasure of seeing JB at the Royal Albert Hall in May 1999 with a special young lady. Top concert and she loved every minute (so did I). 20 minutes of Bond and a haunting Out of Africa theme - wonderful. Like many, was sad to hear news earlier this year. Your music will inspire many in future, Mr Barry. God bless you.

  • pure class

  • John Barry - Nobody does it better!

  • Somewhere in time theme list goes on and on

  • ¡Excelente! John Barry es James Bond.

  • fantastic :)

  • He doesnt at all bad for 76 years old does cor blimey

  • Simply Fantastic!

  • Just beautiful, every time I hear John's music, the hairs stand up on my neck.

    Never to be replaced, he will be sadly missed.

    Best wishes

    Mark :)

  • At 3:39 The best haunting music i've ever heard i enjoying this music too anyone can tell you by hearing music it is JAMES BOND Music that type of popular as well......

    & sad thing is he is no more with us........R.I.P real entertainer......

  • 3:50 YESSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

  • John Barry - hugely talented and versatile with so many great works under his belt. I always wondered why he was never made a "Sir" - he so deserved it.

  • Glorious but it needs Shirley Bassey to make it really electrifying. A little too slow so it seems to miss out on the drama and excitement.

  • the best version ever of this song

  • A genius of a composer and arranger. James Bond might not have lasted much longer after Connery first left had not the music been so distinctive and iconic. He will truly be missed.

  • Comment removed

  • We'll miss your talent John

  • @edybeast the musical spirit IS the bond films

  • Rest in peace Sir

  • A fantastic genius of modern culture!

  • the 2 people most thumbed up are retards

  • Thank you for the music,John..R.I.P.

  • Why would anyone dislike this for Godsakes. The only thing I dislike is that we don't have John barry anymore. I have been in a state of depression since I found out he passed away just a few weeks ago. So, so sad. Rest in Peace John, you will always be an Icon in music.

  • @sadalite there sre 0 dislikes...

  • Comment removed

  • @sadalite Jaws, Goldfinger, and his asian bodyguard disliked the song at the second half that is why

  • its amazing that there is ABSOLUTELY NO dislikes!

  • Thanks for the upload. The man is responsible for providing the theme music to not only so many great films but to the lives of many of us.

    Rest in Peace, John.

  • @humbleradio Could not of said better..........bravo.

  • The James Bond theme sounds just like Moonraker's Gunbarrel.

  • Goosebumps at 1:05; shivers at 1:29 and 2:52; exhilaration from 3:38 on out. What a ride!  Godspeed, Mr. Prendergast.. ..and thanks.

  • Goosebumps at 1:05; shivers at 1:29 and 2:52; exhilaration from 3:38 on out. What a ride! Godspeed, Mr. Prendergast.. ..and thanks.

  • My God.. what a loss for the world...

  • I would have preferred the electric guitar parts in there... but I don't think it would have mixed well with a live orchestra -- probably why they did not go that way.

  • We lost him on 2011.1.30...a really cold winter...

    the Paragon of the Movie composer~

    Tribute to [Born Free](1966)~...~Somewhere in Time[1980]~Dances with Wolves(1990)~...

  • Nobody does it better...

  • Rest in Peace John. For many years I have enjoyed your wonderful music..you are the best.

  • John Barry will be remembered for his screen music, one of the great composers of our time. His music creates the atmosphere and splendour of the scene that brought out the grandeur and majesty of it all. Most of all James Bond and John Barry are inseparable

  • What a balm to see him conduct this...thank you for posting. Barry was brilliant.

  • JB has left us yesterday, I will surely miss him. He's the real GOLDFINGER. Nobody does it better...

  • @teetkumkong yeah, NOBODY DOES IT BETTER

  • Truly one of the best. Some of the films (not Bond obviously) that he made music for were crap, but he always delivered quality.

  • god bless ,john barry ,

  • Rest in Peace John Barry Prendergast - you provided us film afficionados a great deal of breathtaking, timeless motion picture scores that shall never be forgotton. Thank you for the emotions and film memories evoked by your works.

  • ¡Gracias maestro por las emociones e ilusiones que viví a través de su música!. Nunca morirán en mi memoria... como tu música. Adiós!.

  • Thankyou John.

    RIP

  • REST in peace john 

  • Rest In Peace.

  • What on earth is that guy holding right near the end, is it a rocket launcher?

  • @mikester1290 Bassoon. 

  • @RogueRotting360 Thanks for the info. Even the name of the instrument evokes power... BASOOON!!!!!!

  • One of the best composers ever. Thanks for your work, maestro!

  • sorry to here of his death this morning - over 50 years of composing music that captured the mood & feelings of movies, musicals, tv etc. a very humble, warm & kind man....... we wont see his kind again ........ actually just one other thing is that I am shocked he only won 5 Oscars .... given the breath & depth of his work ....

  • John, grazie per la Tua meravigliosa musica

    Riposa in pace.

    .. ciao .. ciaoo ...

  • RIP John Barry, thanks for the music.

  • Isn't that Kramer's Pirate Shirt, he's wearing?

  • We lost the great composer John Barry yesterday. I wish he knew his beautiful Dances with Wolves score sustained me when deployed overseas, missing the birth of my youngest son. May he Rest in Peace.

  • One of the best af all time... RIP :(

  • R.I.P.

  • A legend - he will be sadly missed. RIP John Barry 1933-2011.

  • I saw him at the Albert Hall in 1999, he did a night of his music including a Bond section but also Beyondness of Things and guest was Chris Botti the trumpet player they did a section from a score to Playing By Heart (good film) - he was an absolute legend, his music touched so many people's hearts. Rest in peace Mr. Barry.

  • Rest in Peace - your work put you into our collective memory and so your life continues through your music.

  • RIP John Barry.

  • Just heard of his death.  His music will live forever.

  • I was at this concert - and it is The English Chamber Orchestra..

  • John, Ennio, Lalo, fucking giants!!!

  • Great music, but it would help watching this is the musicians looked the slightest bit excited about the music they were playing

  • Viva John Barry!

  • awesome!

  • Maravilhoso!

  • Awesome!!!

  • Awesome!!

  • They should be playing this stuff in schools. Mozart, Beethoven etc has it's place but this would've really got us excited in school orchestra's. Would keep a lot more students interested for longer...............????

  • Es genial es un maestro vaya crack

  • Just beautiful

  • Gorgeous...the later James Bonds films were sorely missing their 'mood magician' John Barry, for sure.

  • This is what real music sounds like not the fake music produced in studios!

  • John Barry is a GOD!

  • @ajohms

    And one of the greatest!

  • I would love to hear Shirley singing this song with her old friend John Barry as conductor, then it would be complete, but without Shirley's voice?

  • my mum met him and said he was an incredibly nice guy!

  • @edybeast

    Agree totally.

  • Fabulous music.

  • Truely inspirational! Thanks John.

  • John Barry: Among the greatest composers of the 20th Century.

  • Get John back in the composer's chair for the next Bond film!

  • fantastic!! in many ways the finest of the bond themes.

  • wonderful!

  • This is the score played during the Swiss mountain ride when Bond is tracking Goldfinger.  Sir John Barry still has 'The Midas Touch'.

  • Stunning...What would Commander J.B have done without this Sir J.B....

  • Yes, a genius indeed.

  • a true genius,an intellectual at work!

  • The best composer EVER!

  • The best composer in the world

  • Man, I love this video, John Barry is a Master!!

  • Que linda musica saludos de Arequipa Peru

  • im pretty sure thats the best Ive ever heard the James Bond Theme started

    wonderful!!!!!!!!!

  • SIR John Barry

  • The coolest live performance I've heard of the 'James Bond Theme'. Love the drummer's entrance at 4:32! Any idea who the band is? (I see some LSO players dotted around like Nigel Gomm in the trumpets)

  • Have not a clue...............anyone?

  • @bondbrookebond London Musician's Orchestra and the drummer is the inimitable Mr Harold Fisher.

  • @tattyoldbit Many thanks. :-)

  • Fantastic!! John Barry and the orchestra capture the audience's attention with that so recognizable and stirring music of Bond. Thanks go to Barry and the orchestra, and most certainly to Monty Norman!!

  • Absolutely, thanks to Nonty Norman for being unable to write the James Bond Theme and leaving it to John Barry to come up with something so much better.

  • AGREED! Ive heard the original bond theme (it has lyrics and a poppy british bounce to it... although Norman wasnt british) sounds almost like the original Italian job or Monty python... horrid. Barry is Bond!

  • Monty Norman was born in London. He later served in the RAF. He was as British as James Bond.

  • He's tied with John Williams for winning 5 Oscars...

  • I love this video, where I can dowload it?

  • With Real Player.

  • I think John Barry is a GENIUS!!! I love the way he conduct to the orchestra, and I think he learned some trick from David Arnold.

  • sounds like something Barry has arranged

  • Winner of 5 Oscars but no knighthood for John Barry, the UK's premier composer of film music? Tut-tut.

  • dont give up hope yet

  • @bscottb8 That's exactly what i was thinking all the time. If Shirley Bassey and Tom Jones deserve this honour then he would have deserved it too, certainly. May he live on in his music and rest in peace.

  • @bscottb8 Maybe the Royal Academy of Music board might consider a commemorative statue or memorial in his honor? Barry was awarded an OBE as I recollect.

  • @CutterScene Yes but not KBE

  • @bscottb8 and u gives a fuck about knighthood? thats for Robin Hood lol
