Singing the title song for a James Bond movie is an honor, often granted to a British musician with an established presence in the entertainment sphere and awarded musical recordings. Not to mention, when singing the number is likely to get you a Grammy nomination, and possible win, the desire to pen and perform Daniel Craig’s introduction only heightens.
Adele won the Grammy for ‘Skyfall’ in 2013, while Sam Smith won, two years later, for “Writings on the Wall.” Both songs were met with critical acclaim and positive audience reception; and the radio, for quite some time, never grew tired of implanting both numbers firmly in our minds.
Though theories concerning who will sing the next James Bond song span the gamut of musical genres – from Arctic Monkeys to Dua Lipa and Beyonce – certain candidates seem more likely than others to receive this opportunity.
Ed Sheeran, in particular, has come up quite frequently. However, given his vocal stylings, the frequent “powerhouse” portion of the song would remain amiss, unless someone else stepped in for a duet, which brings us to the possible addition of Lady Gaga. Cheat Sheet
