With Moore's death and somebody mentioning they really liked Cornell's Bond theme might as well. Here's an article that I don't really agree with, but was the first thing I found with a list of them http://www.digitalspy.com/movies/james- ... gs-ranked/

Bigfan of a lot of them, with Live and Let Die, View to a Kill, and The World is not Enough on top.

Thunderball. And Tom Jones could probably still hit those notes this very day.

LALD is great, too.

From Russia with Love is a classic sung by the unheralded Matt Munro:

I was the guy who mentioned Cornell's Bond tune. Great tune.

I loved most of them except for the last one. Lately the quality of the main title tunes have gone downhill.

The Spy Who Loved Me is the best one.

Goldfinger is probably 2nd but it isn't very close.

That list can discount instrumentals all they want but it's a fucking stupid thing to do when discussing James Bond themes, so here we go...

1) 'James Bond Theme' from Dr. No
2) Goldfinger
3) 'Nobody Does It Better' from TSWLM
4) On Her Majesty's Secret Service
5) "You Know My Name" from Casino Royale

Honorable mention to "Surrender" by k.d. Lang from Tomorrow Never Dies because the fact that list had that Sheryl Crow abomination ranked so high needed to be counteracted by something that's actually pretty fucking good and is actually used as a theme throughout the movie.

A View To A Kill.
Not only a great Bond theme, but one of Duran Duran's best songs, period.
