Best And Worst Bond Themes Of All Time

Adele Skyfall

By Joel Hanek

The Bond franchise is perhaps the only film property where just as much anticipation is placed on of the theme song as much as the film itself. The decades-long tradition of enlisting the biggest pop acts on the planet to pen a retro-infused, string accompanied pop themes continues with the soon to be released "Skyfall" single from Adele this week.

In honor of 007 scoring the "Rolling in the Deep" singer to croon tales of his mischief, here's a look back at some of the best and worst Bond themes ever according to some guy on the internet.

The Best
1967 - Nancy Sinatra & John Barry ' "You Only Live Twice" from "You Only Live Twice"

Nancy Sinatra's other hit, this song is one of the great examples that define the Bond theme: the marriage of tense and complex score with simple and sweet pop melodies.
