PoshLife 17,002 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I'm not a fan of hers, but I do think she would be a good fit for a Bond song. I don't understand the logic behind the choice of Sam Smith, and I've heard pretty consistently bad reviews about his song's fit in the movie. (Though, I've also heard bad things about the movie, so maybe it is a good fit.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bury Me 477 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I'm happy she wasn't chosen. Sam is a much much better choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elijahfan 26,489 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I think Sam and Lana were two obvious choices. I would've rather had someone unexpected tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastNight 5,935 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I would love Lana to do a Bond theme. I always thought 24 sounded so much like a Bond them, the whole album is very cinematic in that way, I'm sure she'll do it at some point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimisaMonster 31,073 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 No...she's overrated and does tons of movie soundtracks anyways...give other people an opportunity. However, I also don't feel Sam Smith was a great choice for the song...he sounds TERRIBLE on it...its cringeworthy... I would've chosen someone else Stream my new single, 💜"Heartbeat"💜, on Spotify!

TimisaMonster 31,073 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 It looks really tacky on her part that she was EXPECTING someone to reach out to her and she already had some songs in mind...Lana...how many movies are you trying to saturate with your music? Like...get over yourself and let other people have a chance...even if Sam made a song that sucked Stream my new single, 💜"Heartbeat"💜, on Spotify!

GloZell Green 11,723 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Wow poor her. I mean, I have no idea why she expected it. All her music sounds the same and dull imo, it doesn't really fit much. Sam was by far a better choice. Lady Gaga | Shakira Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry 26,836 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 This thread title is stupid clickbait. She never said she was awaiting or expecting it. She just hypothetically said that she would've because she's a fan of Bond music, it's that simple. Nothing from her short statement regarding the issue said she felt entitled to record the song, stop being annoying on purpose. She would be perfect for the theme. Sam also could've done a good song as he has the voice for it, but he didn't nail it. 1 hour ago, TimisaMonster said: It looks really tacky on her part that she was EXPECTING someone to reach out to her and she already had some songs in mind...Lana...how many movies are you trying to saturate with your music?

Lol You know how many people want that song?! What part of her quote said that she was expecting someone to ask her? She was asked about it by the interviewer and said she would take the job if she was ever asked. Look beyond the title for once. Read the facts before you post and make a fool of yourselves.

StrawberryBlond 14,926 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Sam's song grew on me, but ultimately, he's not the right artist for this. Lana practically is a Bond girl, everything about her look and music scream Bond theme. I can't believe there was this obvious choice right under the movie maker's eyes and they just didn't take it. It seems like they only want artists who sell millions upon millions and have #1's to do these themes now, so superficial. Despite not being the bestselling, Lana's still relevant and she'll probably be more relevant than Sam when he releases his follow up and fades into obscurity. Some of these big names they hire may be big now, but it doesn't mean they'll be around forever, especially in nowadays fickle pop world. Casting a one album wonder for such a big gig could look bad in years to come. Surely it shouldn't matter how well known the artist is, but rather if they can handle the theme well? 1 hour ago, TimisaMonster said: It looks really tacky on her part that she was EXPECTING someone to reach out to her and she already had some songs in mind...Lana...how many movies are you trying to saturate with your music? Like...get over yourself and let other people have a chance...even if Sam made a song that sucked Because her music fits with the whole Bond asthetic. It was natural that she expected to be offered the chance when she fits the theme so well. I believe she's only ever had 2 songs in movies and only one of them got the slightest bit of notice taken of it. She's said it's her dream to write for film one day, so I can see why she wants to soundtrack more of her music. It's not about not giving others a chance, it's about furthering a potential career. Just now, GloZell Green said: Wow poor her. I mean, I have no idea why she expected it. All her music sounds the same and dull imo, it doesn't really fit much. Sam was by far a better choice. Her music may not appeal to you, but that doesn't make it dull. It is very lyrically poetic and rich with stunningly majestic instrumentals and hypnotising vocals. So much of her music fits perfectly with the Bond theme. Million Dollar Man is a Bond theme defined. Other potential candidates are Shades Of Cool, Honeymoon, Salvatore, 24 and Swan Song. Her whole asthetic is of a Bond girl. She looks like the kind of woman Bond would sleep with. She sings like a jazz singer from the days of the first Bond films. Marilyn Monroe femme fatale stuff. She should have been the first choice for a Bond theme since she debuted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
