If it's crap... We'll tell you

(Thanks to Slashfilm for the song)

And.....I don't know what to think. At first listen, it sounds too generic and pop-y, and not the dark and gritty feel that these Daniel Craig James Bond (or James Blonde as a lot of people are calling it) films are aiming for. One of my favorite parts of Casino Royale was the incredible title sequence featuring Chris Cornell's "You Know My Name". From the black and white opening scene to the stylistic poker scenes featured in the intro credits, instead of the cliched naked silhouettes of women, you knew this was a different Bond. And to top that off, Chris Cornell's song is just completely badass.

Compare the two:
Another Way to Die
Another Way To Die (Feat. Jack White) - Alicia Keys
vs.
You Know My Name

Maybe It'll grow on me when the film comes out and I see it with the opening credits. One thing is for sure: it is way better then that Madonna Song.

Listen at your own risk
Die Another Day

November 14th cannot come soon enough

I think Jay's summed it up best, it starts out great with the piano but just descends into madness over the course of the track. I just hope the visual sequence helps improve the song in some way.

And yes, 'You Know My Name' was fucking bad-ass.

Okay maybe after the first minute it sounds alright but at first I thought my connection was f-ing up or something. And then maybe the next 15 seconds are kinda like "Ohhh okay so it's gritty/dark? Alright then, crazy lead u- WHAT THE HELL TRUMPETS????"

o_O It's best described as though Jack White and Alicia Keys had two different ideas and directions for the song- but then decided "Hey, let's compromise" "okay, how do we do that?" "Um, let's play our respective songs simultaneously? That's what a compromise is right?"
