That's a pretty unfair pairing considering the nature of this site.
The Bond theme for me.
Could anyone think that YKMN is better?
Blame Mrs Skywalker.
I think YKMN would struggle against the majority of themes.
My vote goes to 'Monty Norman/John Barry'.

The results are in
The James Bond score = 5 votes
You know my name = 0 votes
The James Bond score goes safely through to round 2 and YKMN goes into the mixer.
Time for the next match up
From Russia with love (Matt Monro) vs You only live twice (Nancy Sinatra)

I think both of those work better as instrumentals. But of the two songs, I'll go for Nancy.

For me. FRWL is okay, but YOLT is the better of the two.

From Russia With Love is a bit of a dirge, so I'll go with the other one.

Not keen on either, but FYEO gets it simply for not being the song that drove John Barry away from Bond.

FYEO, though TLD isn't a totally bad Bond theme. Very 80's of course, but that's okay.
