Jack White & Alicia Keys: 'Another Way To Die'
After all the rumours (Amy Winehouse? Duffy? Muse?), the selection of Jack White and Alicia Keys for the 22nd Bond theme came as something of a surprise. Both artists had been loosely linked to the job individually, but when it was announced that the soul queen and the White Stripes guitarist were collaborating eyebrows were raised among 007 fans. The main concern? What on earth would they rhyme with "Quantum of Solace"!

Thankfully, the results aren't the car crash that many feared, with both artists adjusting their usual styles for the job in hand. White's trademark crunchy guitar riffs are present, but he keeps the screeching solos to the minimum. Meanwhile, Keys gives it a bit of extra welly on the vocals. If nothing else, the lyrics ("I know the player with the slick trigger finger for her majesty") will keep fans intrigued as they await Daniel Craig's second outing as 007.
