(00:00):
I was reading something yesterday and Diane, now that you've had this has been

(00:03):
going on for nine days, you'llbe able to comment also because of how
in the Bond you have gotten.But I was reading something that took the
ranked the twenty four theme songs fromtwenty four to one. Now you should
be able to create a list basedon the last two weeks. But what

(00:25):
I was looking at was if youare, like, I've never seen a
Bond movie, so I know someof the songs, Well, sure,
some god that became hit a tonof radio airplas. Oh yeah, no,
no, That's what I'm saying.But are there some that are really
really good that you really wouldn't knowunless you saw the movie? Oh?
Like, are they part of thescore? No? I think no,

(00:47):
no, no, not not necessarilythe score, but the theme song.
Not every theme song was a hit, correct, But so would there be
songs like from like a theme songfrom the movie that, for whatever time
in that moment, wasn't a hitthat you would go by the way,
and I and I have the rankingsin front of me, but if it
didn't transcend the film, are yougonna argue, Oh it was really really

(01:08):
good? But yes, but ifyou saw it in the context of the
movie, okay, would you golike it wasn't a it wasn't a quote
radio hit, But in the contextof the movie, it was so freaking
good. I say, h numberone. Everybody knows, Diane, you
tell me. I mean, nowthat you're so invested in the bond,

(01:32):
there's only one answer it could be, and it's because Elliott wants to sing
it Goldfinger, gold Finger. Thatis not number one. I can tell
you this. Goldfinger was number five. Oh that's a lot higher than I
thought it would have been. Thegold Finger. By the way, well,

(02:05):
I'm waiting for her to sing one, two three, old Finger Midstick.
I also didn't realize, you know, Shirley Bassie did a couple of
them. We talked about her lastweek. The I thought you were just
making fun of her. No,I didn't realize like she was the same

(02:28):
way that like like like they hada like bond. Sureley Bassie was the
theme song singer singer singer Diamonds AreForever? Where's that in the list?
Number seven? She's got two inthe top ten, Diamonds a Forever and

(02:49):
she also has number thirteen. Itake it as it is. It's a
respite from his Sean Conner. Numberthirteen was her other one, Moonraker.
Was that the name of the song, Moonraker? Yeah, there's very few.

(03:10):
What is this? Is this?Moon Raker? Yeah? We're gonna
play this over the last ten days. That's a crime. But you see
what I mean like this song.I also it hasn't really kicked in yet,
but this song sucks. Will wegive it a chance to build?

(03:31):
Li'm ride here? Where is thatmoon lie frame that leads to see what
I mean? This is number thirteen? This socks Diamonds are forever. You
have to make this pretty cool.Okay we've played it. Yeah I know,

(03:53):
but I don't like I'm done now. Okay, Diamonds off forever.
So he needs some way for thevocal. But like that to me,
isn't great? Dan, you haven'tyou haven't given me. I will give
you your top five modern era orlike is it one of the contemporary ones?

(04:15):
Or is it I don't want tosay. Is it from a Sean
Connery movie? Oh, you're thoseyou are the best ones? Is it
from back in the day? Areyou asking me? Yeah? You have
the list? Oh wait, whatdo you want to know number one because
you said we would know it.Oh, I don't know what year it
is, Like, I don't know, I don't know where, like I

(04:39):
don't think it was. I don'tthink I wish you in this one.
I know the song, yeah,but I don't know, And I know
the movie, but I don't knowwhere it falls in the order of the
of the of the Bond movies.I'll say this, I know it wasn't
Daniel Craig okay, And I knowit wasn't Jack Lasenberry or whatever his name
is, George Lassen George Lazenbee.Because I know the name of that one,

(05:06):
I will choose nobody does it betterby Carly Simon, you know what?
And I will tell you this,Diane, that is my And again
I don't know all of the themesongs. That is my favorite James Bond
theme song from The Spy Who LovedMe. Yes, You're exactly right,
And it is one in one ofthe rare occasions where title of song doesn't
match name of movie. Right,that was in the promo. Yes,

(05:29):
but I love that song. Thatsong was used on like for like like
highlight highlight films for like uh,like sports, sports, Yeah, famud
show, Gretzky coming down this like, nobody does it better? Nailed it?

(05:51):
That's called harmony. Mas me feelsame? How is this number four
sing in the same note is notharmony? For the millionth time I was
singing different notes, that's number four. I know the other three it should
be higher, the only one thatI would number one on the list.

(06:11):
I don't have a problem with beingnumber one. But if that's number one,
nobody does it better? Is numbertwo? Or you flip them?
But two and three? Goodbye?Are you gonna? Well? Hold on?
Where am I going? Let megrab a Bond man? Hi,

(06:39):

excellent? Thank you? Are youa big Bond dude? I am mind
like this think of myself. Now, let me ask you this, if
you were, if you were goingto rank like and I don't know if

(07:00):
you're one of those. Does everybodywho likes Bond? Does everybody have to
have their favorite Bond? Where itdoes? It doesn't matter. It's the
character, not the actors. Thecharacter about the actor actor in that spirit
that light up the society of you. Damn it, you're breaking up and
you're breaking up. That's okay,that's okay. Let me put you on

(07:21):
hold. Where am I going?Line one? Hi? Ellie in the
morning, Ellie Christen Harder and HarryBoy. Hey, I'm doing great.
How are you, sir? Oh? Enjoying your Darryl Hammond Sean Connery combination.
That's the thank you, thank you. I hate Darryl Hammond though Darryl
Hammon's a real jackass. The yeah, well, let me ask you this

(07:43):
the are you a big bond?Are you a big bond guy? I'm
a pretty good one my stepdads,the big guy like I bought him a
huge box set for Christmas years back. So, but the songs are always
good. Personal favorite for me isChris Cornell from Christina Royale. See now
in that that was one that Iwas going to ask about that just so
you know, of the twenty fourtheme songs that comes in at number twenty

(08:05):
three, we played that this week. Yeah, No, great song.
Great song it is, but itnever was like, but why does it
rank so low in terms of isit is it better than nobody? Does
it better? No? I loveChris Cornell, but how does that get
ranked so low? Is it aboutsales or is it just popularity? No
no, no, no, nono no no no no no, it

(08:26):
is just ranked by best I mean, is Adele's up there? Say again?
Adele? Adele for Skyfall? SkyFall Fall, number number two,
number two, number two, numbertwo, mister Bond. But oh yes,
you're running off on people. Ohyes, yeah, you didn't think

(08:54):
I could pull that one off todaythis year. Nice work, Pushy Galore.
Oh my god, Now we're justgonna divult into Austin powers. And
then the other one was, well, I think I just posted this because
Billy Elish at the last one,and they enjoyed the melody so much they
actually put it into the score ofthe whole movie. Who's That No Time

(09:18):
to Die? The Billy Eilish onethat was the last Daniel Craig movie,
Number seventeen, number seventeen, okay, yeah. And then Tina Turner had
one too, Golden Oh you're youknow what, You're exactly right. GoldenEye
was number eleven eleven. No,I don't see, but I don't even

(09:39):
know that song. Hey, thankyou, Chris, I don't know that
song Pierce Browsler, Yes, bythe way, But going back to Cornell,
you know what I mean, like, oh, by the way,
I think that's the I think that'sthe other one that isn't Chris Cornell's was
you Know my Name from Casino Royaleall one of the very few rare ones

(10:01):
where the song title doesn't match themovie title. And I believe Cornell may
have been the first foul. Don'tsay that, Elliott, double check your
fact, double o, Chevin.We just discussed one yesterday with Writings on
the Wall. Yeah, that one'snumber six, by the way. That
is from Writings on the Wall.No, I don't remember the movie.

(10:26):
It was from Spector Spector by theway. The Sam Smith song first Bond
song to go number one on theUK charts, really yeah, first one
to go number one on the UKcharts. Bod Wan Deal is best.
Now Diane's song of View to aKill by Duran Duran number ten, that's

(10:52):

seven Do you remember the man withthe Golden gun? I know who sings
that? Do you do? Youknow who sings it? I have a
