Does anyone have a favourite or a hatred for anyone of the dozens of Bond titles songs?

Top one has to be Goldfinger.

Of course one could not leave out the magnificent Millennium by Robin Williams, not a theme but based on a riff from one.

That would be "You only live twice"

"Live and Let Die" title track was my favorite until...
 
"You Know My Name" came along (for the new "Casino Royale"). That's my favorite.

"For Your Eyes Only" (not so much the music, but for the Sheena Easton closeups!)
Elvis didn't do no drugs!

"The World Is Not Enough" performed by Garbage is possibly one of the most underrated bonds songs.  

"Die Another Day" for me, is perhaps my least liked - infact, I would EVEN say I dislike it.  :crazy:

I'm a sucker for John Barry's original theme, which technically is a title track as it was used for Dr. No. It's a combination of a cool walking beat and bombastic brass, with some meaty jazz chords thrown in for good measure. Every time I hear it, the music evokes images of Connery assassinating a bad buy or seducing a beautiful woman or visiting an exotic locale. It's a lot of fun.

Second place would probably be On Her Majesty's Secret Service. Totally awesome.  :headbang:

I want bad people to look forward to and celebrate the day I die, because if they don't, I'm not living up to my potential.
