I almost bought the LP the problem is I only like some of them.
I think I could rank the top 10 - I prefer female renditions for Bond films. I just associate a Bond theme with a female singer. So while Live and Let Die is usually ranked at the top I just want a female to sing them.
This is my top 10
10) Skyfall - Adele - (Skyfall)
9) All Time High - Rita Coolidge (Octopussy)
8) Goldeneye - Tina Turner - (Goldeneye)
7) No Time to Die - Billie Eilish - (No Time to Die)
6) For Your Eyes Only - Sheena Easton (For Your Eyes Only)
5) License to Kill - Gladys Knight - (License to Kill)
4) Goldfinger - Shirly Bassey (Goldfinger)
3) You Only Live Twice - Nancy Sinatra (You Only Live Twice)
2) Nobody Does it Better - Carly Simon (The Spy Who Loved Me)
1) Diamonds Are Forever - Shirly Bassey (Diamonds are Forever)
Bad songs but guilty pleasures: Die Another Day (Madonna/Autotune) and The Man With the Golden Gun - (Lulu).
Follow Ups:
I've been a fan of Bond soundtracks since I was a kid. It was my mother (who loved reading Fleming) who suggested seeing Goldfinger when I was 8 since she knew I would love the DB5. :)
While I enjoy the female lead, for me it is also about John Barry's distinctive brass arrangements. Some excellent ones are found in On Her Majesty's Secret Service .
I always went for the soaring French horns, seems kind of a signature theme for excitement and danger, from William tell to bond........James Bond.
