Instrumental, I've always loved the theme song to On Her Majesty's Secret Service. You Only Live Twice is a close second.
Bond songs

Live and Let Die and The Spy Who Loved Me are my favorites.
You Only Live Twice for me too.

Yep
The guitar riff for Live and Let Die is awesome

But yeah, you can't go wrong with Goldfinger. It's the kiss of death from Mr. Gooooooooldfingerahhhhh
Diamonds are Forever my favorite  
blueblood : 2/15/2024 10:11 pm : link
and is very underrated.

Goldfinger, Live and Let Die and Duran Duran View to a Kill (but im an old 80s Duran Duran fan )
Goldfinger, but not the title theme  
Mike in Prescott : 2/15/2024 10:32 pm : link
The Dawn Raid on Fort Knox score.
John Barry score. - ( New Window )
Great topic  
TXRabbit : 2/15/2024 11:36 pm : link
Nancy's voice was mesmerising to me for You Only Live Twice. I love Shirley's songs. Thunderball is one of the more powerful in my opinion. Thanks Tom

One I've always loved and one that wasn't even a theme was Louis Armstrong - We have All the Time in the World from OHMSS which is really sad given the way they used the song and the ending to the movie.
John Barry is the GOAT btw

He totally made those early movies memorable to me, simply by the score
I liked Goldeneye

Tina Turner?
The World is Not Enough...

Probably not a popular answer but I love the song.

So many good ones  
ZogZerg : 2/16/2024 6:47 am : link
Live and Let Die is the obvious #1.

"View to a Kill" is one of the top ones for me as well.
Spy Who Loved Me

Ennio Morricone does it better, just not Bond films.
the original John Barry theme from Dr. No is TOPS!  
Victor in CT : 2/16/2024 7:30 am : link
of the vocal themes, Goldfinger. It's sends off such an exciting vibe.
Lack of respect for Duran Duran

A View to a Kill is great.
View to a kill and spy who loved me

Love Carly Simon’s voice
Live and let die  
fkap : 2/16/2024 8:22 am : link
strange, since I don't like McCartney overall.

Nobody does it better.

cmon Sheena was so stunning she is the only performer to be featured in the opening.
And the movie is great too.
Oh, so many to choose from, but  
barens : 2/16/2024 11:28 am : link
my heart says Nobody Does It Better, because that was my first Bond movie, but Live and Let Die is probably the best.

I do very much like Chris Cornell's You Know My Name, but can't give it top billing.

Couldn't agree more. The music for Out of Africa and Body Heat could not be more dissimilar, yet both are outstanding and Barry wrote both of them.
