Daniel Craig Backs Amy Winehouse For James Bond Theme

'It would be amazing if she could...'

I REALLY want this to be true. But, I don't think so!

I would hope that whoever writes it collaborates with David Arnold....

I think EoN may have asked them to get together to see what they come up with..I don't think they have officially offered anything. Like you, I really would like this to be true as Amy has always been THE one to sing this.
Her or Leona Lewis anyway.

Is this true? Where is the statement from Eon or Sony or David Arnold?

And what about David Arnold? We need to have his involvement so as to reference the melody in the score...which, in itself, will have to reference some parts of the Casino Royale score given that Q0S is the first ever sequel in the franchise.

It seems Eon's style to pick the act of the moment...and in this case, they better get cracking with her, 'cause from what i've heard, this girl is one self-destructive and sick person (addiction to substances) who may unfortunately o.d. any moment.

There isn't a statement from Eon..just my thoughts that they maybe exploring what they can conjur up.
And the story is from The Sun...

Yeah, I saw the link and didn't bother reading the story.

I hope this is true! Her problems aside, she's undoubtedly a great performer and reminiscent of Shirley Bassey. Many Bond fans hate Amy Winehouse because of her personal problems and that's not fair.

So is this more London tabloid BS, then?

[I've stayed clear of all singer/songwriter speculative discussion 'cause I take my James Bond music seriously...and part of me thinks that this girl would fit the mood of the movie...but the other part says 'this is not official news'.]

Her voice belongs on a Bond film more than any other of her generation

Well..uh okay.. if it does turn out to be true that she is singing the title, I'll be a good sport and wait to hear the end result. I'm not all that familar with her work but I trust the opinions of CBN'ers here who know her music, that she has a great Bond song voice.. At least I'll know it won't turn out to be as awful as Die Another Day was..

I stopped reading right there. The Sun is one of the worst tabloid papers about ...

Which begs the question...why did Dan and Babs even entertain giving them an interview on set?

Delighted. As soon as it's official, all the Amy-bashers can toe the party line!
