007 Soundtrack: You Only Live Twice (1967)

FILM: You Only Live Twice (1967)

SOUNDTRACK RELEASED: 1967

SCORE COMPOSER: John Barry

TITLE SONG: "You Only Live Twice"
COMPOSED BY: Leslie Bricusse, John Barry

PERFORMED BY: Nancy Sinatra

You Only Live Twice is the soundtrack for the fifth James Bond film of the same name. It was composed by Bond veteran John Barry. At the time, this was his fourth credited Bond film. The theme song, You Only Live Twice, was sung by Nancy Sinatra, with music by Barry and lyrics by Leslie Bricusse. The film's incidental music is regarded as among the finest of Barry's scores for the Bond series. Capsule in Space, an impressionistic cue of layered piano and strings ostinatos, is probably the most famous piece of incidental music from the Bond series after 007. The soundtrack has previously been available in two versions on CD – the first, a straight reissue of the LP soundtrack, and the second, an expanded reissue including several previously unreleased tracks.

007 Soundtrack: Goldfinger (1964)

FILM: Goldfinger (1964)

SOUNDTRACK RELEASED: 1964

SCORE COMPOSER: John Barry

TITLE SONG: “Goldfinger"
COMPOSED BY: Leslie Bricusse, Anthony Newley, John Barry

PERFORMED BY: Shirley Bassey

Goldfinger is the soundtrack for the third James Bond film of the same name.

This is the first of three James Bond films with a theme song sung by Shirley Bassey, whose forceful, dramatic style became a series trademark (she would go on to sing Diamonds Are Forever and Moonraker). Goldfinger was composed by John Barry, with lyrics by Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse, and is widely acknowledged as a classic of its genre. Famously, co-producer Harry Saltzman hated the song and only agreed to use it when persuaded by Albert Broccoli.
