James Bond movies do a fantastic job that captures not only the feeling, but also the films plot, a goal that was achieved by Adele and Epworth. In fact, I would go as far as to say that it perfectly shadows the plot of the movie better than almost any other Bond song. SkyFall is James Bond’s deceased parents house, pursued by the classic, psychotic, evil villain. Even if it were not in the lyrics “We will stand tall Face it all together, at SkyFall”, the tone of the music itself, shows dread, then determination, fight, and a acceptance of fate. I might enjoy James Bond as much as any Star Wars fanatic, but this song, this cast, this plot, makes a bloody good movie.
Lyrics
Hold your breath and count to ten
Feel the earth move and then
Hear my heart burst again
For this is the end
I've drowned and dreamt this moment
So overdue I owe them
Swept away, I'm stolen
