Yeah, if those are the only two Bond themes in, that’s really odd. These 3 should be in for sure:

Not for inclusion, but I always liked Monty Python’s Bond theme:
This Bond talk reminded me that the greatest Bond movie of all time has a great theme.
I slipped it into the spreadsheet. I can’t tell if nominations have closed. If they have, obviously feel free to zap it.

I’ve gone ahead and deleted the dual entry, and added Once Upon a Time in the West at the bottom for ease of removal.
I thought Live and Let Die was in? The horn riff is used throughout the movie isn’t it?
Also, and this hasn’t been nominated so I won’t put it in the spreadsheet, this seems like a serious omission (I am a Morricone stan):
Ecstasy of Gold:
I mean part of the ambiguity here is that there are definitely other instrumental tracks from the movie score here that aren’t the main credits theme of the movie, including those I’m guilty of nominating. So there’s just a lot of question on exactly what’s eligible. Ecstasy of Gold is excellent and I gladly support it if it’s eligible.

I remember seeing that before I nominated For a Few Dollars More and a Fistful of Dollars.
Row 20
What post has the spreadsheet link?

That’s the title theme! Ecstasy of Gold is just an incredibly popular instrumental track composed for the movie. As @LKJ was saying though, plenty of those types have been nominated.
ok thanks. I assumed that it was Ecstasy of Gold—didn’t realize there was a different theme.
It’s in the OP.
I’m starting to think that figuring that out was an IQ test that I failed.

Honestly, I’m glad you asked. I kept taking the least efficient route possible by individually searching “spreadsheet” and then jumping into a random mid-thread Wookie post. This will be easier.

Bump. I’m ready to set the bracket by nixing the challenged songs and taking the remaining top 128 if that’s cool.

Let’s go. Thanks Wookie.
No play in for the deep cuts?
