By far the best Bond and the best Bond film...Connery was a joke, Moore was cheesy but sweet, Lazenby was too brief, Brosnan was good and Craig needs a good foot up the backside! I go with Mr Dalton every damn time...hold me back...xx
what u actaully rate that pretty boy Brosnan higher than Craig when he is much closer too the novels dalton and craig are the closet actors too the bond characater all of the others were all good and brought their own thing too the role but seriously brosnan was too weak and was too gd looking to be a real james bond he got really annyoing i mean die another day was a bloody joke
Having just seen comments on other versions of this song..... listen to Gladys singing the title words to the song! She does NOT sing Licence to Kill! Listen closely! I have never noticed this before! Brilliant song! Brilliantly sung! Brilliant film! Saw Gladys and the Pips live in Manchester UK many years ago! What a show! Fantastic artist. Gladys and Dame Shirley should do a duet for the next Bond theme!
a fine tune for a fine film the only bond film to have a 15 cert ,its about time gladys knight sang another bond film theme a true classic to be heard at full volume
Can anyone tell me if Michael Kamen co-wrote this song? He scored the film but I have no clue if he did any arranging or composition for this tune, which I think is the best bond theme EVER!
Definitivamente, la mejor Banda Sonora de todas las Películas de James Bond. Gladys Knigth sería (para mí) genial en alguna nueva película donde actue Daniel Craig. Gracias por ésta canción.
Definitively, the best Soundtrack of all the films of James Bond. Gladys Knigth would be (for me) brilliant in some new film where Daniel Craig acts. Thanks for this song.
Why d'you think the American audience didn't take to it so well? It's not as if Bond hasn't played in competitive years before - Tomorrow Never Dies opened the same day as Titanic and still ended up with about $330 million.
Gladys sure DID sing the HELL out of this brent!

While I don't think that this is either the best Bond film or the best Bond song they're both definately high up there.

"Mr Bond - you'll be pleased to know your uncle has arrived. I put him in your suite."
"Your uncle?"
"Let's make this a proper family reunion - give me a gun."

@charlieiscool1000 Yeah, Die another Day wasn't anything special, Halle Berry's lines in every movie sound awful to me as hot as she is she stinks.

I love the composition of this song - droppping down to the B minor after the recognisable F# maj - D maj chords is frankly inspired.
Love her voice as well!

Sanchez's "valentine" was excellent. I think him and Scaramanga (The Man With the Golden Gun) are the best villians out of all the Bond movies.

The Dalton movies are very underrated. I prefer the darker, harsher, grittier Bonds: Lazenby, Dalton, and Craig over Connery, Moore, or Brosnan.

Agreed, this is without doubt my favourite Bond film, the score's great, the narrative's good and it's got the best Actor who played Bond.
