Adele to perform Skyfall title track

Putting all jests aside....I'm with Adele.

As am I. It makes too much sense.

English singer with an incredible voice who's selling records by the ton. Win-win situation for everyone.

I know. :| Surprisingly, I wasn't a fan back then. Then, after watching An Education, the menu song and the end credits were the two above, and I loved them.

I agree: MUSE should do the next Bond song. It may be the only way to get me into the theater to see PRATFALL.

I like this comment on youtube: "Every time the gym plays this song I get fucking pissed. Her voice sounds like it's coming out of a too small asshole."

God no. :x

Twinge me scringing screws if Muse does it.

Matt Bellamy's head's now so far up his own arse, he's wearing himself as a hat.

If that's who I think it is, I'm said to resemble him closely.

Somehow this chills me and not in a good way.

Not Duffy or Muse. Yes to Adele. Lana Del Rey also sounds like a potential Bond theme performer. I really like her vocals in "Born to Die" and "Blue Jeans." I wouldn't mind a classic rock group either, like The Who, Pink Floyd (if any of these would be up for Bond), or McCartney again. Duran Duran once again would also be awesome

As much as I love those bands (maybe excluding Duran Duran), I would rather have fresh talent before the theme song than a bunch of geriatric rockers.

Of all those bands, you dislike the only one that's good. Shame, really. The Who is probably the only other one with some redeeming value.

I don't love any of them, to be honest, now I actually think about it. Don't know why I even said that. Nerveless, Duran Duran for me will always be a couple of overrated ponces with a few decent songs, but not much else. Sorry, Mrs Sects.

You gave a very accurate description. I don't exactly love Duran Duran, but I would consider them better than the rest of those other bands.

I'd probably agree with that. Floyd and The Who never really did much for me (though I like TOMMY).

About Duran Duran - they'd be nothing without the talents of true industry greats like Trevor Horn and Sir John Barry.

More like an opinion...there ARE some fans of the band around here... :face:

*has every album and every single and every 12' remix*

I don't love Duran Duran, but their concert was the most entertaining I've ever been to.

Because of your edible arse....

Been a fan since I was 4...I've heard every criticism and pish posh there is...but not many bands last 30 years and are still kicking.... :face:

If they were real rock stars, at least a 1/3 would be dead by now.

Two years ago, maybe.

Ehh, I mainly said that just for the sake of an OHMSS reference, nothing more. Don't take it personally.

I really hope Adele doesn't do it. I find her music incredibly boring. Safe, conservative, middle-of-the-road and bland. Duran Duran are The Beatles by comparison.
