Hmmm... I'll have to get back to this thread tonite.

Goldfinger was the classic just because of Honor Blackman, who incidentally was the oldest actress to play the lead part in a Bond Movie.

Nothing against Ursula Andress or Jill St. John, mind you.

Pretty good order! I would make a slight alteration:

1. From Russia With Love
2. Goldfinger
3. Dr. No
4. You Only Live Twice
5. On Her Majesty’s Secret Service
6. Thunderball
7. Diamonds Are Forever

We’ve always loved “You Only Live Twice” in my house, and it rarely gets mentioned. The very fav is Thunderball.

I tend to rank them by title songs, myself. I love the theme to YOLT, although Nancy’s pipes I’ve always thought limited. I would vote that absolutely the best EXCEPT for the horrid decision of dubbing Tiger’s voice. “Yes, Mr Bond-san!” in deep, deep tones.

You Only Live Twice is a song that I love, sticks in my head and I can spend hours singing (to my kids dismay). I love the violins falling down the scales. They don’t make beautiful songs anymore, but the early Bond films were unabashed throwbacks.

From Russia with Love is my other great song from the Bond flicks.
