  • actually sounds like a James Bond song

    

  • why the hell didn't they play this song in the actual movie????

  • @wiigetconsole cause Alicia keys and that pale guy rack up more views since they're popular. when journalists ask who's singing the song, they'd generate more buzz when they mention someone very very famous. in this case, 2 collaborating artists.

  • good, pretty addictive indeed

  • Gotta agree with Matador. This just doesn't fit for the new Bond movies. It would have been perfect for one of the Connery films.

  • better than the original

  • Cool song :)

  • Very Good..

  • When I first heard this theme, it made me realise even more how much darker Bond is getting.

  • When i first heard this song, it made me realise even more that bond is darker than ever. Way better than "Another Way To Die."

  • This was NOT the title song? Absurd! As bad a pick as Sheryl Crow's song over K.D. Lang's for Tomorrow Never Dies! 

  • I love this, and the film. I like the new rebooted Bond. Although they do need a Q. It's useless without Q.

  • um......gotta give props to the guy fer getting "Quantum of Solace" into the lyrics and (almost) making it work.......and it is a hellva lot better than "Another Way To Die"....but really that's not saying much....

  • It would fit perfectly with Connery's Bond flicks... because it's ridiculous to pick Alicia Keys' bullshit song instead of this master-fucking-piece!

  • My ears may be playing tricks on me, but I may have heard snippets of this song in the movie. I don't know, maybe not.

  • Sounds more like a theme from a Tarantino movie. Good though.

  • This is really astonishing, I love this song, I have it in my playlist and although I am not a fan of the original Bond series I think it captures the mood of the whole franchise much much better than what the studio chose :( As a rule when I watch the new Bond movies I fast forward the title songs, which wouldn't be the case with this gem :)

  • I just love this song, it re-captures the essence of the classic bond films, It's too bad they used the awful Alicia Keys song instead (In my opinion, the Alicia Keys song should've been placeholder music and therefore not included in either the movie and OST)

  • One of the best Bond themes! It's a pity they chose the Alicia Keys trash over this one

  • Beats Alicia Keys BIG time

  • nice vid!

  • so many thumbs up

  • Wow! This song really blew me away as befitting a Bond theme-Alicia Keys theme tune was rubbish!! The film wasnt much better!! Thanks for posting.

  • This is much better than whatever nonsense we actually ended up with...

  • Excellent.

  • This is a pretty dang good song and sounds like a real Bond song! The movie was edited sooooo poorly though (I watched it twice and the second time watched for how almost all action scenes had cuts every second or two or less!) making it almost impossible to see what was going on. Plus the story was lame. At least the girls were still hot and the locales nice to look at. Still, my least favorite Bond film of all.

  • Whoever rejected this as the official Theme for QoS should be tarred and feathered!

  • Wait! Were they really gonna use this theme instead of Alicia's?! This is awesome!!

  • Good one. Much better then Alicia's.

  • hm, quite different and cool. Imagine this song with all the resources that alicia/jack got...

  • This is such a classic style theme. It's like something for a Connery Bond. I like the rock ones but this is perfect.

  • It will go down in History as the official-unofficial Quantum of Solace main theme song. Screw Alicia Key's song which has nothing to do with the universe of James Bond.

  • Beats alicia key's song :D

  • I like it.

  • James bond 007 theme song i like it.

  • good song and everything, but its just not bond...

  • This is a major step back from "You Know My Name".

  • The first movie theme was better

  • mh... no, I don't like it. Not as powerful as other bond themes.

  • Excellent.

  • Im sure ill be unpopular for this, but I dont think the song they chose was bad, I think it was the right choice. I like this song, but it isn't really Bondy enough, powerful enough. The composition sounds more suited to a western

  • @anmackay64 I disaggre with you. While Jack White and Alicia Key's theme is by no means the worst, I just can not seem to associate it with James Bond. This IMO sounds much more bond'ish, of the kind of Bond we came to know during Sean Connery's run.

  • This would have made Quantum of Solace, a classic Bond movie, Top class.

  • See, to me this fits the movie better because the overall theme was that Bond was seeking vengeance for his lost love and thus, it needs to be a darker, much more reserved theme. The first movie was about him being an egotistical hot head, thus the perfect song.

  • The worst James Bond theme

    For the worst it is still kinda good

  • This kinda took a shit on Another Way To Die. Well done.

  • mmaybe if this was made in the 60s it would ve been ok it has tht yeart theme

  • mukk64 Rocks !!!

  • good theme

  • may better then White/Keys version

  • @ Rammsteinnut47 I agree with you that is more James Bond song then the other one that took freakin forever

  • Perfect !!! So insidious, gives you cold shivers, you feel danger !

  • what a great song

  • where can i download this?

  • You can buy it on itunes ,napster etc.

  • This should have been the song, its much better, then ANOTHER WAY TO DIE this is acutally james bondish sounding, oh well until another day.

  • This should have been the bloody intro. Probably would have been the only good thing about the film.

  • I love this song...very great composition able to give a lot of emotions!!

    Another 007 great soundtrack!!

  • good!!007.................

  • The song is excellent

  • This song is really cool, classic Bond. But I think "Another Way to Die" worked great with the intro, plus its a new type of theme for a new Bond

  • The song they used with Jack White has in my op ion the worst ever Bond tune..poor movie as well!

  • Yeah it does sound very Tarantino and has a very retro bond sound to it.  Problem is, it doesnt build to any crescendo, no punctuating parts in it. By the end of the song, I'm falling asleep! Need more dynamic riffs. On its own merit its a song I wont mind having on my mp3 player though :)

  • well said theycall, well said...

  • this song would have fit perfectly with the bond film, shame they didn't use it :(

  • better than the one they've used..

  • This sounds more like a Quentin Tarrantino song...

  • your right, this is better

  • wow i actually like this better than the one they used

  • good lyrics but the music is not doing it a favor.

  • start is wierd

  • Much better than the crap they used for the film. This is like a call back to the classic Bonds. Much more classy than that new age shit.

  • this song is just ok... nothing special about it....

  • If they had of picked this song, the film may have actually been watchable.

  • This is the song they SHOULD have used for Quantum of Solace....Excellent

  • it lacks umph, the bond-feel you know? violins and romantic chorus'. It's a good song, but it's way too stable and quiet.

  • Very impressive! much better than the actual theme! Quantum of Solace was a disappoinment in so many ways. They should invest more time into telling a good story and cut down on the pointless, excessive action and CG special effects!

  • honnestly you are a very talented man

  • one word...MASTERPIECE.

  • I like this! This sounds like the classic Bond!

  • cant believe this wasnt picked, its 100 times better than that shit by alicia keys and jack white

  • This is the Theme when I'm Bond...^^

  • ok song, nothing spectacular lets be honest

  • wow. great song!

  • The melody is good, but the lyrics say very little.

  • totally from russia with love sounding <3

  • better than original

  • Why was this NOT the theme?

  • Niiice.... Honestly its is, evokes the 60s feel of the original films. That nice timeless feel. :)

  • Yeah, basically, if the QoS movie came out in the 60s, this is what we would hear of a theme!

  • wow great song. reach to your hear and find what you are made of. notice the circle and the man standing and the thing around it; it looks like a SNAKE'S EYE. the lizards are asking what you about human.

  • Yeah this wouldve been better as the Quantum of Solace theme not White/Keyes Another Way to Die.

  • I think this would have worked well if it was a bit more electric or symphonic...either would work great. I have to say I really hate the Keyes/White theme. Not to mention this song relates quite well to the QoS short story

  • Good Lord. Has a very 60's bond feel, but he sings a with the eccentric 60's sound of someone like Syd Barret. A stronger voice would have worked. I like it as a theme, though the Keys/White song did actually grow on me.

  • A bit from russia with love, but hey anything beats the shitty real one ;)

  • this song is a CLASSIC James Bond theme...

    the official sucks

  • It's more beutiful then the original quantum of solace, but just does not fit into quantum of solace, would fit better into some classic ones like Goldengun.

  • this song could be in a tarantino movie

  • Wow, this song destroys the official theme.

  • this is so much better than that official one.

  • this would have been great in quantum! it would been in stark contrast to the pace of the film!

  • it would fit to Godfather, too.

    Mafia xD

  • this 1 is 2 slow for a new james bond movie but if it was for one of the roger moore movies it would of been good

  • aww i thought another way to die was pretty gd. but i gotta agree, this is amazing!

  • so much better than that alicia keys crap

  • hells ya

  • hell yeah!!

  • Great work. Really like it. Excellent. Keep up the great work.

  • damn they should have used this instead of that other title song

  • i agree othr title song is bull shit!

  • James Bond is Cool,

    he's movies are cool,

    And this Music is Cool!!!!!!!

    YEAH love it

  • Another Way to Die is fucked up, this one is beautiful. This one is having the MOOD!!! Unlike Another Way to Die

  • If Another Way to Die was just instrumental I would have liked it alot better. The voices were awful, I dont even know why they let that recording be in the movie. And sorry Jack White is not a visionary.

  • It sounds like you used the lyrical and rhyme scheme, and choral patterns from Europe's The Final Countdown.

  • Perfectly fit for this bond movie consider the setting is Latin base. Good for a Bond ending credit. It's much better than 'Another Way to Die' real garbage! In order to appeal to a younger audience, they sell-out the core essence of what bond is all about! Does bond need to wear baggy jeans hanging off his ass with an ipod in order to be consider 'hip'!?

  • i agree on that about the pop culture and appealing to the youth,but i think this song is a little low key[mood], it would be good for an ending song.

  • perfect - for the ending of a bond movie.

  • err....doesnt really fit the movie comin from someone whos seen it.

  • the lyrics are rubbish but the actual tune is very retro and bondish (if u know wat i mean) good but extremely cheesey, altho that is wat defines a good bond theme isnt it?

  • the lyrics are cheesy not rubbish

  • Very nice... Good job mate!!!

  • probably better than original...

  • Remember this was a prototype - and a more powerful voice with some editing to the guitar, this could have been a good bond theme.

    But then, the same could be said of Another Way to Die, which has to be the most discordant and unrelated of all the Bond themes to date

  • Prototype or not, this alone is better than that ear damaging [c]rap song they used instead.

  • seconded

  • i think all bond fans can agree on that

  • Please this is way too weak for any Bond consideration.... Let's get real

  • the song is bad and it would have been good to put in the movie but i think another way to die is better

  • this song would have fit much more to a bond film.

  • beautiful

  • a lit more mixed and perfect

  • beginning is kind of like in the godfather

  • Sounds like a bit of a Godfather rip off; I agree.

  • they shold use this song, not Another way to die.

  • I like this alot and agree that i hearkens back to the early themesongs, but i LOVE another way to die

  • very good - as mentioned below, the shirley bassey touch would set it off alright

  • very good job, 5/5 :)

  • Execellent. But needs the Shirley Bassey touch, then it's spot on!

  • Nice work!!! this should have been in the movie dame this is good...

  • probably better than original QS theme

  • not bad, very 60's-ish

  • hmm this is great.. reminds me of the old bond movies! :D

  • This truly deserves the 8,162,849 views Another way to die got.

  • Very nice, better than the original theme. This would have brought back the older Bond films instead of trying to reinvent the films. Would love to be able to download the song. Good job.

  • ok i like this theme.............but its not what im looking for but ok i liked it!

  • eh not a bad theme for a bond movie

  • I actually like this song more than the actual one they ended up using. If it was redone to sound more modern and sung by someone who's just a bit better it could have been really awesome...

    ... unlike Another Way to Die, which was, in my opinion, a huge letdown.

  • Seriously? I'm glad this wasn't picked. this would work for a Sean Connery Bond, but not now a days.

  • .. this is a very fabailistic song but a the actual credit song of Quintom of solace is "another way to dye" by Alicia Keys and Jack white. :) xxx

  • Wow realy good song!!!!

  • this is amazing 1million views

  • completely agree actually

  • Use of strings in the back with the men's vocals would be good in this peice and a great Lady Vocalest like Keys or Better, and it would even be beter still! I like this more than the Fagot and Alicia Aeys

  • More like the classic bond theme from the sixtys

    good I do like

  • Because Quentin Tarantino never used old songs in his big pictures and the soundtracks went by unnoticed right?

    Thic could have been an awesome song for Quantum.

  • i'm angry this song didn't make it, because i didn't like what we ended up with

  • dito, this one fits so much more to a bond... but actualy i think this film wasn't a real bond like the old ones :-(

  • exactly!

  • Brilliant, sir. Absolutely brilliant and very catchy!

  • beautiful song

  • This is a much better song than what they eventually ended up with. The directors had no class as all.

  • agreed...horrible song, for a horrible movie.

  • This has more views than the official song.

  • this is better song then that crap for soundtrack!!!!!! come on!!!! this is not even james bond anymoer!!! they made him so different!!! and thers no bond, james bond!!!!!!!!!!! as i remember all songs for james b. vere hits and we will remember them becauce that was good songs and know this crap with alicia and...stupid, so stupid!!! like another hit of britney or justin or madonna...doesnt have value...complete crap

  • this is so much better than that shit song they ended up using. however, this song doesn't fit because it is a good song and the movie it was made for was ultimately crap. why couldn't they just get Martin Campbell to direct QOS.

  • Could be a theme for one of the old Connery bonds, but not Craig!

  • this vid is sick

  • You know, the distortion effect on the guitar reminds me of the old Spy vs Spy cartoons.

    Does anybody know how to reproduce it?

    I mean, the one that starts at 1:10

  • they shuold have put this

  • this song sounds way better then that shitty ass alica keys one, that ruined the whole movie casino royal was bad ass but quantom of solace dissappointed me..

  • The Alicia keys song isn't really a song. There's no melody. It's just nonsense...

  • the problem is that it so close to all the others in style

  • people are saying this should have been chosen instead of another way to die, because it's more classy. But Bond is no longer classy so this song would not have fit in (being as good as it is) its the 21st centuary now everything is moving on including Bond

  • I like this even better than Another Way To Die, and I think it would have even fit in pretty well with the intro they used.

    Hell, the lyrics even sound like you based them off of the short story

  • Wow! This is a lot better than "Another Way to Die" and I loved that song! Awesome stuff!
