I love reading people's picks for favorite (or least favorite) Bond theme!

The theme itself is in it's own rarefied air, and "Goldfinger" is a fantastic choice.

For me, I'd add "A View to a Kill," "and "Nobody Does it Better." Both are stuck solidly in the 80s, but still...

I would add “The Living Daylights”. Love that one as well.

Every theme seems to conform to the style of the era or artist. “Die Another Day” was dance-pop and very much Madonna’s sound at the time.

One of my best friends is a dyed-in-the- wool Bond enthusiast. So I'm right in there with appreciation. Great list. I can't begin to decide which is my favourite. Maybe 'Goldfinger' but then again I also love 'A View To A Kill' and 'For Your Eyes Only'...

Bring on the enthusiasts! I have a whole wiki about Bond. Haven’t read the books, yet, but maybe that’s the next step.

Thanks! I like those those as well.

My favorite Bond theme is actually a rejected Bond theme (they went with your #7 instead). I just love it. Here's a video about it, which includes a bit of a noodle into the elements that make up a Bond theme, which I found fascinating. https://youtu.be/tiesXqT1P3g

What a great video! I’d never heard the song before or even knew it was rejected. Musically, it’s brilliant.
