JAMES BOND 007

ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK

FOR YOUR EYES ONLY

Music composed and conducted by
Bill Conti

Lyrics by
Michael Leeson

Title Song Performed by
Sheena Easton

For Your Eyes Only is the soundtrack for the 12th James Bond film of the same name.

The theme song was written by Bill Conti (music) and Michael Leeson (lyrics), and performed by Sheena Easton. The song was later nominated for both an Academy Award and Golden Globe in 1982. Easton also made Bond film history as the first (and, to date, only) artist to perform the theme song on-screen during the opening title sequence.

The track Make It Last All Night, performed by Rage and used for the scene at hitman Gonzales' Spanish poolside, is notable for lyrics more suggestive even than the raunchiest Bond title track (arguably, The Man with the Golden Gun).

The soundtrack was composed by Bill Conti, since the series' regular composer, John Barry, was unable to work in the UK for tax reasons. Barry had recommended Conti as a possible alternative. Conti's score is notable for its use of disco elements. During the main ski chase sequence (the track Runaway), Conti showed that he had versed himself in the previous Bond films' music, as his manages to evoke memories of the music from previous ski action in both OHMSS and The Spy Who Loved Me. This, Conti's only contribution to the series to date, was released as an album concurrent with the film's release in 1981.

JAMES BOND 007

ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK

Octopussy

Music composed and conducted by
John Barry

Lyrics by
Tim Rice

Title Song Performed by
Rita Coolidge

Octopussy is the soundtrack for the eponymous thirteenth James Bond film. The score was composed by John Barry, the lyrics by Tim Rice. The opening theme, "All Time High" is sung by Rita Coolidge and is one of six title songs or songs that are not named after film's title.

“While it’s certainly enjoyable, Octopussy is perhaps the dullest of the composer’s Bond scores. But then – it’s all relative, of course. James Bond music from John Barry is good; the only question is just how good. There’s plenty of fine music here, so despite its flaws it still makes for a good album. It has a chequered release history, a pressing error causing the recall of the original CD, which became one of the rarest of all soundtrack albums [at the time].”

JAMES BOND 007

ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK

A VIEW TO A KILL

Music composed and conducted by
John Barry

Title Song by
Duran Duran & John Barry

Performed by
Duran Duran

A View to a Kill is the soundtrack for the film of the same name, the 14th installment in the James Bond film series. The theme song "A View to a Kill", was written by John Barry and Duran Duran, and was recorded in London with a 60-piece orchestra. "A View to a Kill" is the most successful Bond theme to date. In 1986 Barry and Duran Duran were nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song. The single was released in May 1985, and on July 13 it hit number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart, and as of 2014 remains the only Bond theme to do so. On May 25, it made it to number two in the UK Singles Chart.

Composer John Barry utilizes four leitmotifs on the soundtrack, that recurs in two or more of the tracks listed. One is pinned to the theme songs by Duran Duran, one is pinned to henchwoman May Day, one is pinned to the action set-pieces and one appears more generally throughout the film. Barry often called the secondary themes he composed as "action themes" that underscored the action on the screen with hints of the film's theme song, the Bond theme itself, or simply another theme used only in that particular film.
