  • Ladies and gentlemen, our bronze medalist: A VIEW TO A KILL Music composed by JOHN BARRY AVTAK claims 3rd place with one gold medal, two silvers, three bronzes, four 4th places and one 5th place. Seven more top 10's were realised. The…
  • Coming up next is our number 4: MOONRAKER Music composed by JOHN BARRY James Bond's space adventure proofs to have a score that is considerably better appreciated than the movie it goes with. It collected nine top 5's: one gold medal,…

  • I'm a big fan of this one too. My favourite of the Barry scores, so by definition I'd say this is the best Bond score. Love how Barry uses the three original songs in equal measures throughout the score. I also like the mix of traditional instrum…
  • Time to dive into the top 5 with: THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS Music composed by JOHN BARRY I counted nine top 5's for TLD: two golds, two silvers, two bronzes, one 4th place and two fifth places. Eight more top 10's were realised by Barry's …
  • Decided to return to the ranking app again as well, and the results were rather surprising to me. 1. For Your Eyes Only 2. The Living Daylights 3. On Her Majesty's Secret Service 4. Licence to Kill 5. Thunderball 6. From Russia with Love 7.…
  • Standings so far: 6. TB 7. LALD 8. DAF 9. FRWL 10. GF 11. QOS 12. OP 13. CR 14. TND 15. TMWTGG 16. TSWLM 17. LTK 18. DAD 19. TWINE 20. SF 21. GE 22. FYEO 23. CR67 24. DN 25. SP 26. NSNA Still in the game: - YOLT - OHMSS - …
  • Narrowly missing out on the top 5 is: THUNDERBALL Music composed by JOHN BARRY TB collected three gold medals, three bronze ones, one 4th place and one 5th place. Six more top 10's were noted. All participants gave TB a spot in the to…
  • Stating only my personal opinion here, but LALD is one of my least favourites. It's ranked over DN's monster movie score and SP's rehash of SF but not much else. I prefer every other one-timer over this one, except DN. There are good tracks for sure…
  • So here we are, looking at the most popular non-Barry entry of the franchise, also the only one who made it into the top 10, as our number 7: LIVE AND LET DIE Music composed by GEORGE MARTIN Now, LALD ended up as someone's favourite, so …
  • Well @ShakenNotStirred, still no LALD at the moment, because the next one, our number 8, is: DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER Music composed by JOHN BARRY Another score that proves to be considerably more popular than the film it was made for, DAF c…
  • One non-Barry score remains in the running as we reveal our number 9: FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE Music composed by JOHN BARRY FRWL collected two bronze medals, two 4th places and two 5th places. Five more top 10's were noted. Only one bott…
  • Top 10 time today, at number 10 we've got: GOLDFINGER Music composed by JOHN BARRY GF's highest finish was one second place. In addition it obtained four 3rd places, three 4th places and one 5th place. Six more top 10's were noted. Th…
  • Always been a big fan of this score. Arnold's best as far as I'm concerned. I like the scores he made for the Brosnan films, although I'll always prefer Serra. CR is one of my least favourites though as I find it quite unexceptional, but for QOS …

  • A summary of the contest so far. Top 10 (chronologically ranked) : FRWL GF TB YOLT OHMSS DAF LALD MR AVTAK TLD Eliminated : 11. QOS 12. OP 13. CR 14. TND 15. TMWTGG 16. TSWLM 17. LTK 18. DAD 19. TWINE 20. SF 21. GE 22.…
  • Barry fans will rejoice as all other scores from 007's maestro will end up in the top 10, because our number 11 is: QUANTUM OF SOLACE Music composed by DAVID ARNOLD That's hardly a defeat though for QOS, who end this contest as the secon…
  • Our number 12: OCTOPUSSY Music composed by JOHN BARRY OP is the second Barry score that leaves the contest. It received one 6th place, one 7th place, one 8th place, three 9th places and two 10th places. In addition it ended up in elev…
  • I only started looking through the awards and nominations during the course of this game, here are a few I missed out on from the earlier exits. SP: Sattelite Award nomination, World International Film Music Award nomination for Composer of the Y…
  • Next up is our number 13: CASINO ROYALE Music composed by DAVID ARNOLD Another Arnold score, this one being his second-highest placed entry. Reaching 2nd place in our two previous games, the score here is slightly less popular than th…

  • Tomorrow we'll enter the top half, let's have a look back at the game so far: 14. TND 15. TMWTGG 16. TSWLM 17. LTK 18. DAD 19. TWINE 20. SF 21. GE 22. FYEO 23. CR67 24. DN 25. SP 26. NSNA

  • One of my favourite sports memories already, witnessing my favourite country grab the European title for the first time since '68. Che bella serata! Sempre forza Azzurri!
  • One of my favourites, gave it the 5th spot. The album doesn't do it justice though.
  • Today we enter the top 15, and we've still got three Arnold scores, one Martin score and all the Barry ones, though not for long because our number 15 is: THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN Music composed by JOHN BARRY So here we are, looking a…
  • Love the disco stuff myself and I'm a huge fan of Bond '77. Had it somewhere between 12th and 15th.
  • Hi folks, sorry for the delay. Had a busy day yesterday. Now on to our number 16: THE SPY WHO LOVED ME Music composed by MARVIN HAMLISCH Spy received five bottom 5's, out of which one 25th place was the lowest. One 7th, one 8th and…
  • I like this score, it suits the film well and it has a unique sound to it. Love the Latin American vibes.
  • Number 17: LICENCE TO KILL Music composed by MICHAEL KAMEN Only four bottom 5's for Kamen's sole Bond outing, out of which one 24th place was the lowest ranking. On the other side of the spectrum, three 7th places, two 9th places, one…
