Bond Medley: Covers to Die For

One of the classy things about the Bond movie franchise was its constant featuring of some very catchy theme songs sung by some of the music industry’s biggest names such as Shirley Bassey, Tina Turner, Adele, Wings, and Tom Jones.

And in the above superb medley of all 25 Bond* songs (from Dr No to No Time To Die) some super talented young Brits do them justice with their covers and dare we say it some may even be an improvement upon the original. Definitely.

To watch and listen to the 23-minute-long medley just click the play button at the left of the feature image above.
