I've always found Moore's bond to be as good as or better than anyones. You have to be kind of silly to take any of these movies seriously...yet they are among the most entertaining stuff you will find imo. Always terrific production values, good acting, beautiful locales, and tongue in cheek commentary on world politics. Moore makes it that much more entertaining for me bc he makes you feel like he is aware of the entire game and is taking you along for the ride as his privileged guest.
This one and "For Your Eyes Only" are # 1. The best songs came from the Moore films. Might just be me, but they don't make movie themes like this anymore. And Binder was the master of openings !
While Sean Connery had a somehow rough attitude playing Bond, Moore brought some charme and comedy into the role. Both are pretty different, so it's hard to chose. :-)
well, you're right my friend...eventhough I think 60's generation always choose Connery, not just for 007 movies, other roles too, you know...Roger is fantastic. He roled this great performance in 5 times...The man with the golden gun, Moonraker...Octopussy is his best, I think.
One of my favourite Bond Songs! Though yes, I agree: it would benefit from being remastered and generally freshed up. I wondered if they bothered on any of the new cds?
This is one of the few James Bond songs that doesn't mention the movie's name.

Just once I'd like to see an "uncensored" version of all these old Bond openings. Hot naked chicks NOT in shadow.

I like in this how the guitar work is sparse in places, yet when used it stands out. The bass gives a good backing to the song too.

If this movie was made nowadays, the title alone would make it R rated due to sexual references....

One of several great James Bond "opening" songs. It brings back some wonderful memories of the early 80's.

Rita Coolidge is a shit singer, but this has got to be one of the best Bond films.

James Bond's movies back then were rather predictibe, but this was a sweet song and helped the movie a bit. Nice post!
