Sonny-Burnett Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 (edited) Think that was lip-syncing to Somebody's Watching Me in Brother's Keeper, no? I just recall the hot dancer in that scene. Edited January 8, 2017 by Sonny-Burnett 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daytona74 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Would have been a great song for a whole number of different Miami Vice episodes... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daytona74 Posted January 9, 2017 Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 To me, still the best of all the classic James Bond title songs. And better than most of the more modern ones too. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny-Burnett Posted January 9, 2017 Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 (edited) That's a classic bond theme and a good one. Didn't she also do Moonraker? I'm fond of this one as it is associated with arguably one of (if not the ) the best of the Bond films. And the themes to Goldeneye by Tina Turner, Adele in Skyfall, and For Your Eyes Only by Caitlin Davies, I mean Sheena Easton aren't too bad either.

Edit: Oops I just noticed the video Also, I think Her Majesty's Secret Service is the best Bond film, but Lazansby was the worst Bond. I know, I know...

Daytona74 Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Yeah George Lazenby was an unlucky pick. I think he even said in an interview once that he found it hard being a feature film actor all of a sudden, because up to that point, his career had mainly been in fashion modeling. I think he did a whole string of B movies though after his Bond film. Not sure which one is my favorite Bond film. But I generally like the Sean Connery movies the most. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vincent Hanna Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 @2:56 is that the same place Crockett and Tubbs chase after Calderone's plane in the pilot? (cool vid) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadrian Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 (edited) Yes. Chalks on Watson Island. I'd forgotten that was on that video. Such a great song. I think GM said it was his favorite of all his songs. Edited January 10, 2017 by Dadrian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators James Posted January 10, 2017 Author Administrators Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Probably the greatest original song made for a video game soundtrack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a trumpet player who did the trumpet fills. Shirley Bassey had a beautiful & powerful voice for the James Bond Themes. She made you want to see the movie! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daytona74 Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Of the more modern Bond songs, I like this one best: (the movie itself wasn't so great though, IIRC). I also like "Goldeneye" by Tina Turner. And "Skyfall" isn't bad either. But none of them have as much class and style as songs like "Diamonds Are Forever". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators James Posted January 11, 2017 Author Administrators Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 YouTube recommended this to me. It's Toto's Africa being played on a Harp. It's brilliant. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vincent Hanna Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 From Russia with Love is my favourite bond "theme" if that counts, The title sequence is awesome too with the credits shone onto sexy belly dancing girls. Very cool and exotic. (The drums at the start always reminded me of the machine gun-like drums at the start of the Miami Vice theme too.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daytona74 Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 I used to love that song "Hazard"! Reminds me of a vacation to California... driving down the Pacific Coast Highway to songs like this one, somewhere in the middle of nowhere between San Francisco and Los Angeles... One of the other songs we had on repeat play in our car on that trip was obviously this one here: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
