The James Bond Themes - Part II: From Russia With Love.


  The second Bond film (From Russia Wiht Love) had an instrumental theme in the opening by John Barry (Which in itself is good), with a song by Matt Monro playing over a radio in the film , but he also sung the song in the end credits. This would be the last time a bond theme song would be played either in the end credits or in the gunbarrel itself. So how is it?

It's good enough. Definately more connecting with the film and definitly more useful, with good enough voice in the singing and decent enough lyrics to make a fine rounded song. There isn't much way to sing a song for the classic film other than just this.

Overall, I give it a rating of 3.5 out of 5 stars.
