My god. I held such promise for this song, for the whole three seconds between hearing these two had made a song together and hearing their fruits on my radio. Individually I love listening to them both. Together? Disaster. It sounds like me a and a friend trying to do karaoke together, horribly mismatched voices singing to their own separate tracks. Either one singing the song by themselves would have been great, together... i am speechless! Great song for a bond movie, if only one of the two had decided they had something better to do at the recording date.

This has to be a joke right? Seriously? What the hell was that?! That was absolutely terrible!! I'd rather have Madonna do another theme song and that's saying A LOT!

This is awful...piss poor continuity and Keys/White sound terrible together. I love White's stuff, but this isn't a good venue for him. Should've let Muse do the theme.

this song is shit.it sounds good in terms of goth,but it sounds bad when you know such a good singer like alica keys is straning her wonderful vocals to sound like that.Jack White didnt even do well considering this is his songtype.

Well, I think this song is not a Bond song, Fosters movie won't be a Bond movie, this is what I hope at least.

The song is not a White master piece but it is also not a bad song. Fortunately it kept White's style in a way, a style which could be quite unsuitable for a Bond movie.

The woman is strange, a strange mix of dirt and beauty.

The more I listen to the song, the more I like it...

The generic characteristics of a typical bond song are that it will be somewhat disappointing primarily. This song is no exception to that precedent. This song is by no means a work of perfection but it is one that will "grow" on you. The instrumentals are brilliant in my view. They reflect everything that a bond theme should encompass however the lyrics are unbecoming of artists that aspire to create the same lyrical brilliance of previous bond tracks. In summation it is an average bond track, where good instrumentals are not complemented by good lyrics.

First impressions awful but, will have to see how it marries up with the onscreen images. Too choppy, no real hook and vocals drowned out with distortion. I was hoping for something at least as good as Chris Cornell's 'You Know My Name' which perfectly matched Daniel Craig's rough new portrayal of Bond.
