The James Bond Themes - Part XVIII: Tomorrow Never Dies.

   The words that describe this song are (for me, anyway) only four. The four are, in order: Really? This was picked? Originally the theme was going to be sung by k.d. lang, but like "Mr Kiss Kiss Bang", it was switched at the last minute for...this. So how is the replacement? If you really wanted a theme to work for this film...you should've stayed with the k.d. lang version because this theme...sucks. Ok, maybe its not horrible, but it doesn't hold up to even the weaker ones, like "Moonraker" or "Kingston Calypso". My problem with is that Crow's higher tone voice at some points don't work in well, it feels out of place. A dissapointing theme.

Overall, I give it a rating of 1.5 out of 5 stars.
