The most powerful and lyrically correct interpretation of the James Bond character. This theme song was not just for Casino Royale but set the tone for the Craig-era Bond films. No other theme song came close.
I never understood those music critiques that said Chris Cornell's James Bond Soundtrack was the least favorable. You Know My Name is the best one and it has been my favorite ever since it was out in '06.
It's simple really, critics don't have a fucking clue what they're talking about. You just have to look at the disparity between critic and audience scores on rotten tomatoes to see that, a lot of critics allow their pockets and political opinions to influence their reviews, and they often aspire to swim in the circles of utmost snobbery which is why they always find some convoluted way to explain why they don't like a particular thing and throw disproportionate praise towards anything "stunning and brave". This song is one of the classic Bond themes, probably somewhere around 5th place, critics are morons.
Spot on! I remember going to the theater to watch this move and as soon as I heard Cornell's voice i got goose bumps. This kept on through the whole move. R.I.P. C.C. one of the best.
Nice compassionate word, dear .. the way you dedicated your sentiments to our sweet legend. Dear Chris, We will never forget your endless love and musical journey
I agree, Chris was exceptional. The band are playing to a click track on this performance, run from the drummer’s laptop, but this is to bolster the instrumentation rather than Chris’s vocal.
In my mind, he's taking turns fronting the best band in the afterlife, along with Bowie and Freddie Mercury. Hendrix, Brian Jones, and Kurt Cobain on guitars, Lemmy and Cliff Burton on bass, and John Bonham and Neal Peart on drums. Makes being dead seem not so bad.
@@neuralmute Cornell could carry his own show. But alas he's dead. His body began decomposing 5-10 days since his death 3+years ago. I wish I could see him perform again. But he's returned to the universe.
conquistadorhispano That's you opinion. His opinion is that this one is better. Different people different tastes. There is no best one, because everybody will think differently.
hankock09 It's more related to a Chris Cornell rock song more than it's related to james bond. It's bond for like the first 10 seconds, but once he starts singing, it's a really catchy rock song. Not like Goldfinger, a perfect bond song. Skyfall was in line with that kind of music. Even Sheryll Crow had a song similar to her style , but still felt like a bond song. This is like how Nobody Does it Better is a great song, but doesn't sound like a Bond song.
No it isn’t. It’s widely accepted to be one of the best. Cornell is considered one of the best Rock vocalists of all time. He’s won a ton of awards and made millions.
@Truthspoon without a doubt it's in the top 3 to 5 along with lulu, Nancy s and macca. I like View to a kill but I recon many don't. Then there's Bassy, not for me but the mass sheep will follow.
@@paulwood4142 My heart is still broken. I was just beginning to process a world without Bowie, then we lost Chris Cornell? He was the best of the entire grunge crowd. So tragic.
Casino Royale changed my life. I just HAD to go to Lake Como. Then I starting going back and back and back again to Italy. I ADORE IT.......but, have to say, From Russia With Love is the most perfect Bond film.
Lyrically, musically, the perfect song for James Bond. Easily the best Bond film song of them all, and a perfect pairing with the mood and sound of the original Bond theme song. The idea of Cornell as Bond did occur to me, because he was so cool, made it look so easy. He actually brings to mind another Bond song 'Nobody Does it Better'... nobody's better than Cornell.What a kick ass singer and band.
I'm a 47 year old School Nurse and can't and won't start my day without listening to Chris first. Thank you Chris Cornell you will be forever missed, and never forgotten.
Chris always had the best musicians around him, he really did a great job looking for super talented people like Pete Thorn and bringing them along with him for his solo shows.
what amazes me is how he sung his songs with little to no effort and that power comes out. R.I.P Chris, you and your amazing voice will be greatly missed
Well singing for him was easy...you can hear when he put his soul into it no? He often held back, called compressive or explosive signing. To bad he didn't see the light of what's really beautiful and important in his life. I miss him like oxygen 😔
He really nailed that tune, sounds very bond-esque. The true brilliance of a musician is having an ear for that inexplicable quality that makes a tune familiar yet very different.
Definitely the best bond theme ever. Best title, best lyrics, best rythm. It completely understands the man its singing about. And then of course its sung by the god tier individual that was mr Chris Cornell. The world did not deserve him and mourns him still.
@@dylank1329 @Analog Human Actually David Arnold wrote it on his own - it was offered to a couple of other artists before Chris - so no, Chris wasn't involved in writing it, but it's still a cracking song and is one of my fav Bond tunes
@@dominiccrimmings6925 that's a little unfair. I believe Cornell wrote most of the lyrics, which were then added to by Arnold. But yes, it's important to recognise David Arnold's huge part in the writing and production. However, the finished product wouldn't have been half as compelling without Chris Cornell's performance.
I'd have to agree. Second place is a tie between A-Ha' s "The Living Daylights" and John Barry's instrumental theme from ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE. I can't wait to hear what you folks have to say.
His Voice....I'm speechless! I was blown away the first time I ever heard him! Now, he continues to amaze me...long after his unfortunate demise....I'm not sure people realize the enormity of this Man's Talent!
Best Bond song and opening credits imo. Towards the end when Craig emerges from the silhouette with "You know my name" blaring to it's conclusion... Epic.
Dude, when i found out the lyrics are from Ms perspective, asking bond if hes ready to become a 00... changed the song forever. Cornell was an underrated lyricist
I can't stop tearing up at all these videos! I have loved Chris for 24 years and always imagined he would be here for such a long a time. I am grateful for all these amazing videos, but it also kills me knowing that this is all we will have of him. There will be no new footage, concerts, meeting him, new music, etc. I will miss this beautiful man for the rest of my life!
PianoGirl Beautifully said PG! No one sings like him any more or ever will!! He was the total package‼️ Greatest lyricist, vocalist & foxiest rocknroller ever❣️IMO of course. RIP CC💔
“Arm yourself because no one else here will save you...are you willing to die the coldest blood runs through my veins... you know my name!!! Iconic- the best Bond theme song imo
Why in the hell does everyone seem to think this amazing, very talented, best lookin man in the world is high? I'm not seeing it and no, it's not because I'm high too! He's absolutely amazing in every sense of the word!!!!♥♥♥
The best Bond theme, by far! Suited Daniel Craig's Casino Royale so much. I love Chris's voice here... makes me fill with emotion hearing his powerful voice, but knowing he is no longer here with us 😥
Alex Star 👻 That's what I have been saying forever, I wish other people would open there 👂 and listen to all the different collaborations he has been in!!A shit load!!
Five years later and I only just noticed there was a very talented musician playing both keys and bass, I salute you. But it is very hard to even register that, when the world's most beautiful man is on stage.
RIGHT?!? aaND he is singing harmony, lookin cool too, I might add. Seriously, who is this bad ass? Also agree, Chris is so amazing it is easy to overlook. I hope Chris truly is at peace somehow.
I think I can understand the conflict about Chris’s contribution to the Bond musical legacy. Personally, I think it’s right up there with Dame Shirley Bassey’s Bond Songs. (Rare to get to do one, she’s done multiples.) By Casino Royals, we know who Bond is; or we at least think we do, conditioned by four decades of films. But this is the first time we truly meet him, when he is simply James Bond and not Bond, James Bond. Chris’s song fits that. We know his name, he’s still discovering it and becoming the charming, dangerous man we’ve known for so long.
The guys vocal range was unbelievable ...what a legacy he left and yes the greatest bond song ever ! I watch the video many times ..when I’m out walking volcanoes and mountains around the world , listening to it in my phone .. I always look to the heavens with a tear in my eye and smile ! God bless
I always loved this beautiful man with the golden voice. That tan skin with beautiful blue green eyes. HE was a sight to behold and HEAR. RIP Dear Chris.
GOD!! It just spills out of him....intensity, passion, and an effortless vocal.....it doesn't even look like he is pushing to hit that raspy tiger voice at the end of the song. Chris when you died you killed music here on Earth!
As a life long Bond fan, there are a few theme songs that are awesome and iconic. This song blows them away. Chris let us into James’ psyche somehow with just a few words. He had a gift and I love this song with all my heart.
Im so fortunate to have hooked up with Cris n his bands. Nothing else compares to his voice.. in my rock world HE'S always here. Thankx CRIS. For all you've shared . For singing your truths. It's hard to write RIP...
I dont know if it make sense to others but whenever I see CC holding his mic, singing and making his majestic eye contact - he reminds me of a regal lion. Knowing what he is and what he's capable of.
This is usual practice indeed, but this guy in particular keeps playing the keyboard with his right hand while hammering on the freatboard of the base with the left. I don´t think many would achieve this.

Skyfall was equally good.
Skyfall and No time to die are really good also.
@@PeopleThatFallApart I liked both of those two. I just like how YKMN has a rock feeling to it.
Agreed it’s absolutely balls out, set the tone so well for the Craig Bond’s
This is my favourite bond song of all time , writing this in 2024 🔥🔥🔥
I'm with you on this! 🤘
The best Bond theme by a country mile. From a 54 yr old Brit who's seen all the films 5 or 6 times over.
Same here. And this is the first time I've ever seen it rendered live. He did an outstanding job, lacking nothing.
Mine, too.
Liking it in 2024!
Oh man he screamed those high notes at the end like it was just another tuesday. RIP. He was a genius.
What...he passed away❔😔
@@debbiehamilton5875 Yes, he unfortunately took his own life back in 2017
All the legends died... Chris, Chester, Freddy...

No auto tune. Clearly singing without dubs or backing tracks. Chris was a legend. Rip.
Cool

II think we can all agree though that they're both very good :D

And notes that don't exist. Sublimely.
He didn't make a great sandwich.

@@therealcportugal "It won all sorts of awards too."

Cold, dark and ruthless soundtrack for the coldest bond ever. Still my favorite Bond film ever Casino Royale.
Yes, Daniel Craig is a fucking badass Bond. The best we've ever seen. And this is the best 007 track ever, sorry, Adele, sorry Mr. Goldfinger.

When you're in the company of greatness you will achieve great things.
