Er, are McCartney and Wings a duet? They’d been a band for a couple of years before doing LALD.
As for White, my guess is that they didn’t want two solo rockers in a row and thought the duet would be the best of both worlds. I quite like AWTD but I’m in the minority.
Was more a snide remark regarding the general quality of Paul McCartney and The Wings. Live and Let Die is a great song, but very much the exception rather than the rule…
As for Alicia Keyes, I seem to recall reading that it was Jack White who brought her on, but I can’t remember where I read that.
HEY!, Band on the Run was a great album 
Band on the Run, Jet, Let me Roll it, … Cmon, Macca and The Wings had great songs.
Yeah, that’s the point. Sting is plenty good enough, so why not just Sting, why not just White? Questions for the MGM/Eon marketing gurus perhaps.
I’m not saying Sting’s not good/popular enough (ok, maybe the latter can now be said to be empirically true). Just commenting on how it looks to me.
Personally found it so forgettable i’d forgotten i’d heard it.
Oh well, I love everything Paul McCartney does, so…
BTW, I’m loving this Sting rumour. Hope it’s true.
I bought the Hellblazer 30th anniversary book, despite already having every issue featured, just to get Sting’s foreword, so no argument from me.
Why would we think she is distressed though? All she’s doing is putting her hands to her head (as you may do when you push your hair back) and looking to one side in the other. And yeah, in the other case they could well be running through a performance: he is the director after all.
The papers will take a photo of you when you’re mid way through a blink and claim you were drunk out of your mind: I wouldn’t believe anything they’re saying.
That rings a bell; I think it was his idea as well. She’s certainly got some lungs on her so not a bad choice. I think he had pretty much full control on that song; I’m sure I heard he wanted the mariachi trumpets on it too.
I think it’s a pretty great rock Bond song: the closest we’ve had to rock so far. It’s not perfect: I’d agree the vocal gets a bit screechy, but I think the driving trumpet line through the chorus is really powerful and the bass is great. Fantastic drumming too.
Me when I’ve been told that Sting is doing the new Bond theme😭
I had Cary’s expression when I heard the same
Well, both became happy again, so…
Don’t get me wrong I love sting, I just checked the top played tunes on my phone and two of his are right up there. I’m just surprised to hear them going with Sting rather than some Flavour of the times like Ed Sheeran.
Brilliant! 
Because it’s Sunday and if she wasn’t distressed we’d have nothing to debate, but the crappy weather 
Cary’s consoling her that it’s not just Sting. To which she looks up in horror “Not Bryan Adams and Rod Stewart!”
Maybe a line in the song could be “If it’s not Ed Sheeran, then it’s probably me.”
“Don’t look now, but there’s a paparazzi to my left who sells his crap to one of the tabloids who make up stuff about us”
“Eurgh, non, pas cette poubelle?!?”
Whatever the reason it’s good to see Seydoux giving it her all.
