October 5 is Global James Bond Day! We are celebrating with pickle juice martinis (the antithesis of 007) and a deep dive with our editor and self proclaimed Bond Enthusiast, Tamas Harangi, to talk about the franchise and the iconic songs that help make it relevant to this day. Join us, won’t you?
The best Bond theme is subjective, sure, but shouldn’t it be orchestral, cinematic, maybe a bit dreamy, and for God’s sake, mention the name of the movie in the song! We really hope you’ll spend some time listening to this episode so you can weigh in on YOUR favorite Bond song… and what makes a Bond song great! Here are our picks:
Christine: “A View to a Kill” by Duran Duran (1985)
Christina: “You Only Live Twice” by Nancy Sinatra (1967)
Tamas: “License to Kill” by Gladys Knight (1989)
Please do join in on the fun by commenting your favorite Bond song on the Stereothematica Instagram! And if you haven’t got one… maybe tell us your favorite martini?
