The Living Daylights Covered...

The Living Daylights was one of the better Bond films in the 1980s (and much better than the follow-up in my opinion). Timothy Dalton was a brilliant (and too short-lived) James Bond. In addition to the return of Bond's Aston Martin, John Barry returned for his last (to date) James Bond score featuring A-ha on the title song. How this song missed the top 40 in America is beyond me...

Carmel Morris released a pretty cool cover of the title track which I've posted below (along with some additional music) which is worth a listen. Morris has released a number of albums and appeared on various cult-theme compilations.
