I morse fick vi en spännande ljudfil
från Playground Records.
Det är nya temalåten till Bondfilmen ”Skyfall”
som snart har premiär över hela landet.
Adele sjunger låten med samma namn som filmen
och produktionen är lika storslagen som sig bör,
när det gäller att lyfta agent 007 till stordåd.
Adeles röst gör sig bra i Bond-tema och kanske
får hon chansen fler gånger.
Ingen kan dock rubba Dame Shirley Basseys
position som alla tiders Bond-sångerska.
Gå gärna in på YouTube och botanisera bland
Shirlay Basseys storheter som exempelvis
”Goldfinger” och ”Diamonds are Forever”.
Glöm heller inte att lyssna på originalversionen till
Bondfilmen ”Thunderball” med Tom Jones, där
kan man snacka om pipa, speciellt i sluttonernas crescendo.
Här nedan kan du se den information vi fick oss
tillhanda tillsammans med ”Skyfall”.
Vårt namn är Frontface, Magazine Frontface…

“SKYFALL” RELEASE TO COINCIDE WITH 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF JAMES BOND 007
(October 5th, 2012; XL Recordings, London) – Following Adele’s premiere of her latest
recording “Skyfall,” the official theme song to the upcoming 007 adventure
of the same name, globally via her official site (http://adele.tv) at 0:07 BST/London
time today, the track is nowavailable to purchase as a download at iTunes

October 5th, marks the 50th anniversary of the release of Dr.. No, and thus
the James Bond film franchise, and will be celebrated as Global James Bond Day.
After a 90 second clip of the track leaked earlier this week, fans and critics have lined up to
praise the “Skyfall” theme, with the Evening Standard calling Adele the “Best Bond singer
since Shirley Bassey,” The Daily Telegraph describing it as ’A Bond song that stirs the heart’,
LA Times saying ”Though only about 90 seconds, what’s available of Adele’s ”Skyfall”
seems to hint at the classic Bond themes of yore.” whilst The Guardian
called it ’A deliciously languid ballad.”

After reading the script for the film, Adele enlisted Paul Epworth to co-write and produce the
theme song to “Skyfall™.” Adele admits, “I was a little hesitant at first to be involved with
the theme song for Skyfall. There’s a lot of instant spotlight and pressure when it comes to a
Bond song. But I fell in love with the script and Paul had some great ideas for the track and it
ended up being a bit of a no brainer to do it in the end. It was also a lot of fun writing to a
brief, something I’ve never done, which made it exciting. When we recorded the strings it was
one of the proudest moments of my life. I’ll be back combing my hair when I’m 60 telling people
I was a Bond girl back in the day I’m sure!” Recorded at Abbey Road Studios in London,
“Skyfall” features the lush accompaniment of a 77-piece orchestra.
“Skyfall” is the first recording by Adele since releasing her massively successful album 21 in
early 2011. To date 21 has sold over 24 million albums worldwide and garnered Adele 6
Grammy Awards, 2 BRIT Awards and 2 Ivor Novello Awards.
“Skyfall™” the movie will be released on October 26, 2012 in the UK and on November 9,
2012 in the U.S.
