One Of The Best Bond Scores
by
timdalton007 (August 31, 2008)
The Living Daylights proved to be John Barry’s last Bond score to date. It is largely action based making excellent use of the main title theme song, the song "Where Has Everybody Gone?" and the James Bond Theme and taking a heavy synthesizer feel. That the score a feel of being both modern and yet a classic feeling. But perhaps the films best music is the romantic music used in the scenes between Bond and Kara. There is also the suspenseful music used in the desert sequences that, while featuring the synthesizer feel of the action scenes, still feels in place and reminds the listener of Barry's classic suspense music. The films songs are a mixed bag. The main title theme, a musical collaboration between Barry and the rock group aha, is a good main title song. It is heavily rock though and the lack of an orchestral feel hurts the song considerable and it pales in comparison to the main title song from A View To A Kill. The films other two songs, while being great to listen to, feel out of place in a Bond movie. This was Barry’s last score to date for the Bond films and it is certainly one of his best.
