    ew. "You Know My Name" is way better. I hate Alicia Keys.

    I like the opening 20 seconds, but the actual song is pretty poor. To be positive... it sounds like it was designed to be seen WITH the opening credits, so it might be okay in the context it was designed for. But, pretty unimpressive -- and a shame they went with two American singers when there's so much BRITISH talent around now. "Goldeneye" was the last song that was truly a BOND THEME, though. Everything after that has been pretty poor, although I quite liked The World Is Not Enough. Shame this song shares half its title with Madonna's track "Die Another Day" just 2 movies ago, as well!

    I thought it was terrible, I agree with Ashley You know my name was far superior to this.

    Garbage. The riffs even suck.

    I believe this is a good song, but not as a bong theme. Everything signifies it as a bond theme except that chorus, although its a great rock song and i believe an awesome collaboration, its just not bond worthy.

    The Song does kind of suck but i love jack white and i think it was a mistake to mix two different genres cause jacks much more experimental and alicia just is terrible she just screechs.

    I didn't think I'd like this at first, the collaboration or the song itself. After the second listen, I don't think it's that bad, I just don't think it's the best Bond theme (especially after Chris Cornell's brilliant song). This sounds kind of like a Guitar Hero cover version of "Iron Man" in parts and sure, "You Know My Name" is clearly superior. How anyone can "hate" Alicia Keys, though, is beyond me - and I don't think I would go so far as to call Jack White a genius either. Talented, yes! Genius? Ehh.. not yet.

    And Coke Zero is worse than Crystal Pepsi. YUCK.

    Well i sorta like it i think it has a good beat to it, but what i think it's problem is that (may not for you) You know my name is tooo good. I still listen to it it has got great lirics and also a good tune and Chris Cornell's voice suits the song very well, but i like this song it isn't boring it has a lot of good parts and to be truthfull there being worse bond songs, but what the hell do i no im 14. And not just the song, but it will not be the same without Vasper (eva green) i thought she was amazing. Goooo James bond.

    Awful injustice to Bond franchise, alicia keys would be more suited for singing the intro to a teletubbie movie, nothing serious or important such as a James Bond movie.. the beat itself is ok but the singer was a bad choice.
