You have to give it to Shirley Manson and Garbage. After being selected by producer Barbara Broccoli to perform the theme song for the newest Bond film, Garbage went straight to work to produce what has to be one of the best Bond theme songs in recent years. With Manson's powerful vocals, and a beautiful, haunting score, Garbage does an excellent job in creating a theme song to be remembered. Other theme songs such as "A View to a Kill" by Duran Duran, and "The Living Daylights" by A-ha are great, and "The World is not Enough" will join the ranks as one of the best in the series.

The U.N.K.L.E. remix is an average remix. It starts out great, but the ending really gets out of touch with the song's original version. The other track on this imported maxi-single is a fierce track from the film's score, which gives the listener a feeling that a chase is taking place.

Garbage rules, and this single is great! Purchase it today.

"The World Is Not Enough" is a great single and is noteworthy for Garbage and Bond fans alike. It's great to hear the UNKLE Remix version of this song, which gives it a whole new slant. The Original Version is on here a well.

The David Arnold's "Ice Bandits" an instrumental track based on the same tune was unnecessary and inappropriate. It is the same as the cut on the soundtrack.

The cover artwork based on the teaser poster for "The World Is Not Enough" is very good. Every BOND FAN should add this to their collection.

"The world is not enough" by garbage is one of the best songs that garbage has ever preformed. If you liked "special" and/or enjoy no doubt you'll love this song and CD. It also has a great video concept and shirley manson had the right tune to sing it. Buy it. Enjoy it.

Garbage is 2 for 2 when it comes to recording movie themes. Following up their hugely successful "#1 Crush" from the Romeo & Juliet soundtrack is this largely overlooked single. Similar to "#1 Crush", the lyrics are not overly deep but Shirley Manson's powerful vocals command the listener's attention while telling the song's tragic story. "The World Is Not Enough" definitely deserves more attention than radio and media have given it so far.

The World is Not Enough performed by Garbage is the coolest James Bond theme song ever! Shirley and the boys didn't pen the song but their interpetition of the track is dynamite. Shirley's voice is quiet and yet powerful especially during the end of the bridge. Great song and fantastic purchase. Garbage rocks!

Ever since the first Sean Connery/Bond film debuted in 1962, the music, particularly the theme, has been an integral part of the Bond mystique. A pattern has occured that holds true for most of the themes that accompany the opening credits: every OTHER theme tends to be stronger than the one that preceded it. The same holds true for Garbage's effort for the film of the same name, a superior tune to both its forerunner ("Tomorrow Never Dies" and its successor ("Die Another Day").

The composition, though composed by David Arnold, features a structure that is similar to those done by favorite Bond composer John Barry: ear-catching opening, simple but seductive lyrics, and a great delivery from the solo vocalist (Shirley Manson).

The tune ranks up there with "Goldfinger," "You Only Live Twice," "Diamonds Are Forever," "Nobody Does It Better," "For Your Eyes Only," "Licence to Kill," and "Goldeneye" as the best of the Bond themes.
