An interesting take from The Ten Seconds guy, who's pretty adept at aping other artists' styles and voices.



I like it better than the original. In case anyone didn't know, Chris Cornell performed Casino Royale's theme song, You Know My Name.

He sounds like he's struggling a bit, but overall it's much better than the original. More energy and an actual climax.

I think what mostly bothers me is that it's yet another ballad after Skyfall and Spectre. You know my name just got you really hyped for the movie. (doesn't hurt that it also has one of the best opening sequences)

The song is shit but the artist is good. Sounds better for sure. Still a pale imitation of Casino Royale.

I don't know if this is an artist decision or a studio decision, or both, but after back to back Oscar wins for both of those songs you can see why they (whoever the 'they' is) would feel like this is the sweet spot for Bond themes.

Seems incredibly disrespectful to murder a song and then say you did it in the style of Chris Cornell.
