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.

The song is ok but does not work on the big screen. The thin instrumental layering seems to get lost in the title credits. Poor Mark Ronson...if only he got the job!
I really like it, it has grown on me
This song isn't bad,but there has been way,way,way better songs for The James Bond films before,lets hope the film better than the song.

I hated it at first, but it's really growing on me! I'm starting to love it.
The review is way too kind! This rubbish doesn't even compare to chris cornell's brilliant 'you know my name.' I'm really disappointed in this track because I thought with the would reinvention of Bond we'd finally get high standard stuff with each movie. I was wrong! This collabaration should NEVER EVER be attempted again
Both Jack's and Alicia's vocals are too weak to carry a James Bond song. The song is terrible and the sound is terrible. Sorry, hate it!
This sort of song would only work well with divas like Shirley Bassey. Otherwise this is pure drivel!!!
this song is aweful, they sing together and sound so out of sink. The whole song is dragged out in the movie 4/5 mins of credits with the rubbish in the background. Its a horrible song and really irritating, the lyrics arnt even original " anoother wayy to dieeee" isnt that the title of the last Peirce bond film ?
