OK listening to radio 2 this morning and “Rain On Your Parade” by Duffy came on, this would have been a fantastic song for the new bond film I thought.
So tonight I downloaded it (Itunes because I’m a good boy) and started to wonder what other songs could of made a good bond tune.

So any body else have any ideas? Has to be strong song with a hint of darkness and also good for hooning to smile

You can tell the best Bond songs easily. John Barry wrote them. Anybody else comes a poor second, some worse than others but none of them anywhere near as good as the Maestro himself

Only allowed if Bond kills the Welsh beer bellied shreeker at the end of the title sequence.

Correct but a one song hooning track is a bit short.

Isn't the story here that Mark Ronson wrote it for Amy Winehouse to sing for the Bond movie, but she lost the "contract" as she was too wasted/much of a liability, so he got Duffy to record it anyway, instead?

Or something.

What the hell is wrong with her face? She looks young but at the same time looks really old.

I always thought that Underwater Love by Smoke City would make an ideal Bond theme...

Oddly, I can't find the original video so this frankly hilarious home effort will have to suffice. Music's still the same though:

Total wrong end of the stick.

Mark Ronson wrote for Amy Winehouse, she filled herself full of junk, lost contract.
Reserve was Jack White and Alicia Keys.

Duffy hasn't had anything to do with Ronson, although she has covered a Bond song.
