“What! Goldfinger not on your list!”

I know, right?

That has always been, is now, and will remain the #1 James Bond song of all time!

I love the Jack White/Alicia Keys “Another Way to Die” too!

In searching for pictures of her, there are a lot of unsmiling ones. Reminds me of Kristen Stewart.

I heard her on some awards show, just an over-hyped wanna-be that gained fame on YouTube. Heard garage band singers that are far better.

Here is an interview she did with James Corden, she’s seems to be a really nice, fun person with a good sense of humor:

She has a very different sound, one I find strangely compelling. She gets a lot of play on the alternative stations like 97.1 jin Tampa. “Bad Guy” and “All the Good Girls go to Hell” get a lot of play (a destination, not a curse - I checked, no comma). I say good for her.
