I tell you this because, as an artist, I think you'll understand. Sometimes when I'm driving ... on the road at night ... I see two headlights coming toward me. Fast. I have this sudden impulse to turn the wheel quickly, head-on into the oncoming car. I can anticipate the explosion. The sound of shattering glass. The ... flames rising out of the flowing gasoline.
David arnold is truly 100percent a genius i love everything he does, he can take any song any artist and make it sound epic he does bond themes and othernthings but youll onow his sound when you hear it. Listen too the propellerheads_ on her kajesties secret service ft.david arnold and youll hear that thumping sound or charlies ajgels 2 soundtrack Pink real good time ft.David Arnold
One of my favourites from the Nineties, along with Massive Attack and Tracy Thorn's Protection. Such emotional power in the vocals, the haunting lyrics and the soundscapes in both songs are extraordinary. They still affect me now. Magical.
I was RU-vid searching for this song based of a vague childhood memory of Bjork having a phenomenal song that sounded a little Massive Attack with that soaring Violin piece... I could never find. Until finally I found it on Virgin Atlantic flight to Cape Town before Christmas on a Bjork album that I searched through on the in-flight wntertainment system. I must have listened to it 20 times straight! 😂😅
Best song of Bjork.Its like you are in different world when you listen to this song.I remember when MTv plated her songs and they were all strange and then this one came along and it was like the best song of that year.
God I wish we got much more than just a few seconds of glimpses of her in longshot, to see her movements, instead of all the hugely less interesting footage from the film💔🥹
Absolutely agree with you there. David Arnold composed it and of course went on to create arguably the best scores in the series since John Barry. I always thought this song would have worked wonderfully for a sort of direct follow-up to OHMSS (If they had made one in the 90's with either Dalton or Brosnan of course) with the song being all about emotional numbness. If I ever make a Bond fan-film I think I'll force myself into using it, there's a reason the rest of the Bond community loves creating alternate title sequences with this song, it's absolutely elite and perfectly suits the character of Bond even though it wasn't written about him! 🤣
