   Current rabbit hole: which James Bond movie theme song is the best one overall? I know which one I think it is!

     @codinghorror As Garbage did one, I don't understand the question.

     @codinghorror Upon further consideration, Madonna's is also a banger, so I will countenance debate between those two.

     @codinghorror @SonnyBonds Can't believe I'm saying these words but the Guns n Roses cover is better. But neither holds a candle to Die Another Day or World is Not Enough.

     The Duran Duran one is best never spoken of. Like Arcadia.

     @jwz @codinghorror I'm a Garbage fan but "A View To A Kill" and "The Living Daylights" though.

     @SonnyBonds @jwz @SonnyBonds@mastodon.gamedev.plan and Die Another Day I don't get at all. It's super tryhard Madonna overproduced autotune synth dance mode and .. bleh. I like the Garbage one though!

     @SonnyBonds @jwz their cover is amazing but I feel hair metal rock is just not a good fit to the poem and sentiment here, no matter how good the hair rock metal may be.

     @jwz @codinghorror Tiga's phaser license should be revoked.

     But are we just straight up posting hype music right now?

     Who can forget "Theme for Boneraker" by The Pixies, or "Bond Grrl" by Bikinikill.

     And incidentally I think that World is a middling Garbage song at best. But that still makes it the #2 or possibly #1 Bond theme.

     @jwz @codinghorror I say I'm a big fan, but honestly I'm mostly into the two pre-Beautiful albums.

     Beautiful Garbage has a special place in my heart for reasons very loosely related to the songs on it. Musically I don't hate it and it does have some songs I really like. World feels like a _very_ Beautiful-era song to me though. But I like it, it's really... extra.

     The albums after that I've mostly listened through out of duty.
