Film: live and Let Die, 1973

Highest UK chart position: 9

example of poetry: "If the changing world in which we live, is constantly in and cry say live and let die. "

2) We Have All the time in The World Louis Armstrong

Film: On Her Majesty 's Secret Service , 1969

Highest UK chart position: 3

for example lyric: "Every step of the way will find us with the cares of The World far behind us. "

Written by John Barry for George Lazenby 's solitary outing as Bond, this poignant ballad was One of Louis 'Satchmo' Armstrong's last recordings.

The Track , which appears only charted in the UK after the use in a 1994 commercial beer - not played over the opening credits instead of during a romantic montage halfway through the Film.

1) the Goldfinger, Shirley Bassey

determines the Worst five Bond Themes5) For your eyes Only, Sheena Easton

Film: For your eyes Only determines, 1981

Highest UK chart position: 8

4) All Time High-Rita Coolidge

Film: Octopussy, 1983

the Highest UK chart position: 75

for example lyric: "All I wanted was a sweet distraction for an hour or Two . "

This is a deadly matt MOR dirge, hastily lyricist Tim Rice and perfunctorily written by Evita carried out by Coolidge for Roger Moore , the sixth outing as 007.

in the same year, brought with it a negligible tune, "by Lani Hall , taken from Sean Connery 's "rogue" Bond film, never say Never.

Highest UK chart position: 3

The American singer also has a Cameo Appearance in Pierce Brosnan 's fourth and last Bond movie, playing a fencing instructor named Verity.
