I find it hard not to imagine a love theme more appropriate by Barry, (Well, I guess Robin & Marian, Dances With Wolves) and it's in a Bond film. The first of the soft version of the song's instrumental and perfect for Bond and Tracy. You want to strap on skis and go hurtling away from Blofeld's goons. What's that, a film without a title song? Doesn't matter. ![]() It serves to set the film up with anticipation. It screams action and excitement, there's even a sound towards the end that somehow is emotive or at least does something to a part of the brain that makes it emotive. It's the kind of music that has you fidgeting as you listen. You hear this and you picture the slopes of Piz Gloria, of Tracy driving her Cougar and so on. The theme is so intrinsically linked to him, being his one film, that it is his theme. The theme is a second Bond theme and it is tempting to think that if Lazenby had returned, so this theme would in some shape or form. If Hunt took Bond back to basics, so Barry did in a way. Probably my most listened to Barry track and what an opening, the sound chiming well with the image of a slow motion running Bond. I do like how the track fades out just before the famous line. The fight music is good though in isolation doesn't quite sit right. There are sounds similar to DAF's subsequent score where Bond watches Tracy and going to rescue her, a sort of 'twinkling' sound. It's a cool rendition of the theme as Bond drives, indeed it seems to make him more cool as you get the close-up of his cigarette lighting and the first tantalising hint of the main theme as Tracy appears. ![]() Track resumes just after skipping Q and M with Bond driving the DBS. This Never Happened to the Other Fella (5.05)įantastic version of the Bond theme opens up the film (with the only time you get credits on screen in the PTS).
