Would this song work as a Bond theme?

Post by Jamesdude »

Ive been thinking that the theme song for the upcoming Bonnie and Clyde remake would make a great Bond theme. What do you guys think?

This is an old song from the 60s by Nancy Sinatra.

And Quentin Tarantino already used it in one of his films btw.

Hate it when Tarantino just destroys some products to "brighten" his own flick! Awesome song!

Rather than making a new thread id thought i post this here instead since its the same subject. There is this song by rapper Tech Nine that ive been thinking could have been a great Bond theme, or at least ive been getting a Bond feel from this :

Now i dont support the idea of remaking any past Bond movies, but i always thought this song by Coldplay would fit well with On Her Majesty's Secret Service, it fits Tracy

Is it me or does this song just screams James Bond. It would have fit well with Diamonds Are Forever

It does. It has a very retro sound.
