We weren't too impressed when we first heard Another Way to Die - theme tune to Quantum of Solace - but we vowed to reserve judgement until we heard it tied to a Bond opening sequence.

The first Bond duet in history, recorded by Alicia Keys and Jack White, is something of a gritty-rock affair that hasn't been well received.

Well, if you thought a music video might help its case, you were probably wrong. Having felt the theme tune begin to grow on us, we've been pulled back down to Earth by this:

It's... well, different. It's funky-looking and filled with a selection of cool-looking effects, but it doesn't have that Bond feel to it. Then again, change isn't always a bad thing and Casino Royale is proof of that. What do you think? Share your thoughts in the HEXUS.community forums.

Doesn't work for me; can't go beyond 1min 40 of watching/listening to it. It feels like some left over song given a bond spin to it. Same goes with the video, but literally adding the bond spin to it.
The song has grown on me a bit…

I'm a tad confused about the video… is this the opening video for the actual film?
It's
I like the song, but if you compare the video to say, goldeneye, it just doesn't compare. It's too much like a music video rather than a bond sequence.
Gaaaawd who cares? Who actually listens to the theme rather than just stare intently at the screening waiting to catch a silhouetted nipple?
