Bono does Bond, perhaps

Artists: U2

Reports suggest that U2 could record the next James Bond theme, for the upcoming Daniel Craig debut Casino Royale. With cheese?

Producer Barbara Broccoli has said that the multi-award-winning Irish outfit are among those being considered:

"David Arnold will be composing the soundtrack but we have not yet chosen who is doing the song. I think U2 are great. Bono actually wrote the song for GoldenEye but Tina Turner performed it."

Do you think David Arnold's face looks like a Nerf Ball, a la his Hey! cartoon namesake? I reckon it does, y'know. Nerf Balls are crap, anyway - gimme a Mitre Delta and I'm happy as Larry... Mullins.

DiScuss: Come on, surely they can do better than U2? What about Dizzee Rascal? Or The Pussycat Dolls? COME ON...


damn you, mike

i really want some cheese now :(


Producer Barbara Broccoli

is a damned fool.


i reckon Send More Paramedics should do it

"Sean Connery was better, WWRRRRRAAAAAAHHHHHH,
Always escapes with one second to go WWRRRRRRAAAAAAAHHHHHHH,
Plentiful girls, more zombies for me WWRRRRRRAAAAAAHHHHHHH,
Why cant they bring back George Lazemby?"


I reckon

YMSS should do it


IMDB reckon

Tina Turner has been asked to do it.

(shudders at image of raddled, bandy legged old crone 'doing it'.)


Mmmmmm...

Broccoli and cheese....


I have an idea

Why don't they put this poor franchise out of its misery? It's been consistently shit since Roger Moore stopped doing it anyway.


I had no idea

that they did "Goldeneye"
I'm starting to hate U2 more and more...


they didn't 'do' it, bono and the edge wrote it.

that theme tune was good!!


Indeed

"Goldeneye" is the best "U2" song ive ever heard...maybe...


barbara broccoli

is a stupid name. Is she friends with Chris Carrot?


bring back shirley bassey

'Goldfinger' & 'Diamonds Are Forever' are sheer class.


COME ON PEOPLE!!!

don't neglect " A View To A Kill" and "The Living Daylights"!


If they had an ounce of style left

or tradition, they would ask Goldfrapp,no? i guess she would match the blonde theme....
Who remembers his hats?


At

the exact moment that I read the words "Dizzee Rascal" in that article, my winamp started playing 'Fix Up Look Sharp'. Spooky.


Don't Panic! Mr Bond

Get PANIC! At The Disco to do it! XD


Stop getting Bond wrong!!!!!

Steve Coogan should do it. You know it would be the best bond theme ever.


why?

I imagine this Bond song as promoting world unity by killing those keeping third world countries in debt.
