Each film in the James Bond franchise is encouraged to meet certain criteria: unique and thrilling action sequences; a diabolical, over-the-top villain; and a dramatic theme song. From Paul McCartney to Billie Eilish, artists across time and genre have contributed their musical talents to the iconic spy franchise. The results have resonated with audiences, music charts, and award ceremonies alike, with the past three Bond themes even winning the Oscar for Best Original Song. Moviegoers and listeners certainly have opinions on how the themes compare to one another, but whether good or bad, a James Bond film is simply incomplete without its own musical flourish.
