LICENCE REVOKED - a Bond Themes sync playlist

[Tisch]

Male country ballads, to be precise.

Has word reached @Barnacle?

 

[Kate]

He’ll be furious when he hears that ‘country songs’ is the theme of the next ASFM.

@Barnacle's JOY will more than make up for that.

 

[COB]

I don't even remember what the theme was. Alicia Keys? Shirley should have done it!

Yep, Alicia and Jack White - not a vintage theme, for me

 

[Tisch]

I don't even remember what the theme was. Alicia Keys? Shirley should have done it!

And Jack White. I loved it! Disappointed they didn't attempt to write a song called "Quantum of Solace" though

 

[ButterTart]

Honestly, big Shirl's entire life revolves around this one franchise. The Jade Goody of James Bond.

 

[Jark]

I always think it's a shame they didn't get DSB back for one last victory lap during the Daniel Craig era. her voice never gave out.

instead we got 3 terrible theme songs, a good Chris Cornell effort that wasn't very Bond, and Skyfall.

 

[Iguana]

And Jack White. I loved it! Disappointed they didn't attempt to write a song called "Quantum of Solace" though

It's no "Yes".

Honestly, big Shirl's entire life revolves around this one franchise. The Jade Goody of James Bond.

And filling the space between Mantavoni in charity shop record collections.

Honestly, big Shirl's entire life revolves around this one franchise. The Jade Goody of James Bond.

She CREATED the genre! She's to Bond Themes what Clea is to "jeans and nice top" music

 

[octophone]

I think Dame Shirley can give anything the necessary gravitas.

 

[ButterTart]

And Jack White. I loved it! Disappointed they didn't attempt to write a song called "Quantum of Solace" though

"Enter my Quantum of Solace
Faster than Speedy Gonzales"

I wrote that in a matter of seconds, Jack had no excuse.

 

[Jark]

are we going to get Lana's Bond theme tonight?

 

[COB]

Geri Halliwell - Live and Let Die
Well, bless our Geru for having a go at this. Knowing that this exists I don't see how I COULDN'T include it, and she really is giving it her all! I'd probably rather listen to this than hear from 'Macca' these days too The song is undeniable, I'm sure you'll agree.

 

[Iguana]

How CRUEL to put Geru on after Shirley Gagged!

 

[octophone]

Wait. WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS???????

 

[Kate]

Geri. Oh dear.

 

[ButterTart]

I think Dame Shirley can give anything the necessary gravitas.

And as if by contrast, here's George Michael's best friend.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I am sorry but I have just kicked @COB out of the house. This sync listen will no longer be continuing. Thank you all for coming

 

[Tisch]

are we going to get Lana's Bond theme tonight?

I was going to ask this but I think @COB had too many questions so I've decided to be SURPRISED

 

[dmlaw]

Oh, this going to be a shame.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

We MUST APPRECIATE THE ARTS!

 

[COB]

I didn't know about a Lana theme! So I'm afraid not, sorry

 

[octophone]

Geri Halliwell sings Paul McCartney.

When Fuck Met That.

 

[Tisch]

Definitely heard her 'attempt' at this before what was it from does anyone know? A single B-Side maybe? It's Raining Men?

 

[COB]

So, Geri versus Menly in the battle of the Bond covers. Who wins?

 

[octophone]

Oh God the reggae bit is even worse than when Guns N Roses did it.

 

[ButterTart]

I'd like to choose 'let die', please.

 

[Iguana]

Hoping @COB has somehow managed to get Lara Fabian's Final Fantasy theme in to please me and @Diddy

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Geri Halliwell sings Paul McCartney.

When Fuck Met That.

I'd like to hear her take on Frog Song or Mull of Kintyre

 

[ButterTart]

I love that she's doing ad libs at the end. STAY IN YOUR LANE!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Was that COD REGGAE?

 

[Iguana]

That last note

 

[Kate]

Well that was horrific.

 

[dmlaw]

I guess a cover version by a noted Spaniard does reduce the film‘s overall racism a little bit.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Put this in the Tate Modern.

 

[octophone]

Fuck me to the shops and back, that was RANK.

But very funny.

 

[COB]

Adele - Skyfall (Clark Kent & Oscar Daniel Remix)
Anyone for a sprinkling of dubstep? I feel like we HAD to have Skyfall in here somewhere, and there aren't any official remixes so let's journey back to 2012 with this spot of cheap tat instead!

 

[ButterTart]

Well that was horrific.

There's not a Geri Halliwell song in existence that this sentence doesn't describe.

 

[ButterTart]

I'm just going to have to accept that I really like Skyfall at this point. I've tried for years to resist, but this mix is doing it for me.

 

[COB]

You all nearly had an acoustic Jedward cover of Skyfall btw, just saying.
