Sam Smith is dreadful. This makes the Madonna Bond theme sound good

Oh bums, did I miss it? I assumed it'd be on at 8:12 and planned everything else accordingly

Doh

I saw a clip of the film on the news. Had echoes of 'Live and Let Die'. Dunno about the feem toon.

on the road to nowhere in particular

Trad late 60's Bond tune. Very powerful but not really R1 material. Sam Smith does have his fan base though

C...

My view too, not his best vocals.

Wasn't impressed either but I'm not a Bond fan so it doesn't really make much difference to me.

His vocal cords have been destroyed. Hence why he can't sing his old stuff like he use to. It's very common among singers.

Very Whiney vocals

Just didn't have the same sort of sound you would attribute to a Bond Film. Got high hopes for the film

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else

Random ballad, annoying voice, generic "bond" arrangement.

Meh...

I read that he was "appointed" before the song was written, which to me is the wrong way round. They should ask for submissions, then choose the best - taking into account the marketing of the singer, if they must, only at that point.

Not heard it but Sam Smith is a terribly nasal singer, don't like any of his songs

I wasn't going to go there, with something along the lines that he is probably more girl than boy anyway haha

Melodically - it is very Bond like.

Harmonically - quite simple in construction, with most of the colouring added by the excellent orchestration. song writers always get the credits, however some of the time there is one or more orchestrators in the background putting the meat on the bones of a tune. Orchestrating is a very skilled art, and will often make the difference in a very simple harmonic structured song.

I like his voice, and enjoy the vocal range he has at his disposal.

I don't like it, haven't like any since Duran Duran did 'View to a kill'

I feel the 'Bond song' has been getting a little stale and predictable. I'd have liked to have seen a fresh approach, something edgy or shouty.......something you'd actually listen to and enjoy on its own merits and not because it's a Bond theme.

Vocal range? He sounds like deflating bagpipes at the best of times. Makes Coldplay sound cheerful!
