I'm listening to it now. Not a bad performance at all. Amy's turn!

Great music, terrible vocals. Should've gone with Joe Cornish's version. There are also some interesting Bond soundtrack artefacts that can be found on YouTube, most notably Alice Cooper's take on The Man With the Golden Gun. In the words of Alan Partridge: "Stop getting Bond wrong!!"

On first listen it sounds quite good you can definatly tell Jack White made it and it does sound like a proper james Bond song.

Jack White's blues are far more suitable for a Bond theme than Amy Winehouse's jazz.

hmmm, its not bad, but its not good either. The chorus actually sounds like Sugababes, which obviously isn't a good thing, and it doesn't compare to Chris Cornell's amazing bond theme last time around. 5/10, and i'm feeling generous!

Everyone will agree that Amy Winehouse could do it wayyyyyyyyy much better! the White-Winehouse duet could be a masterpiece... it definitely seems like Alicia was a "last minute" choice... her vocals totally ripped my ears during this song...Too bad for this to be selected as the Worst James Bond Soundtrack...
