Alicia Keys and Jack White

The White Stripes : Jack White

The White Stripes : Jack White

Another Way To Die

Simply put, the most bangin’ Bond theme ever, not to mention the best thing Jack’s done in ages. With more sex and swagger than is probably decent, he and Alicia kick the new 007 franchise up another notch, teasing and rising into a desperate duet chorus. Musically it’s massive and swinging, with nods to John Barry. Oh, and did you catch that breakbeat in there? Yeah, that’s Jack, on his drumming debut. The show off...

sounds alot like many shades of black by the raconteurs, definitely in terms of production at least.
