www.tourdates.co.uk/news/14754-muse-open-to-recording-james-bond-theme-songMuse open to recording James Bond theme songMuse drummer Dominic Howard has revealed the band would be keen to record the theme song for the next James Bond film. In an interview with the BBC, Howard said that the band's sound fits well with what the spy adventure series is about and that the marriage could be a success. He suggested that the song United States of Eurasia, which is on the group's new album called The Resistance, would be a good one to use. "It's something we'd probably say yes to, or at least give it a good go. Certainly some of our music fits with the James Bond vibe, and I think it could work," Howard told the news provider. He added that the band would not be keen on the idea of writing a full film score due to the creative restrictions they would face.

Barbara Broccoli has a private joke running at the moment where she chooses really awful songs as the Bond theme.

I could think of worse choices and with Eon's recent track record they'll find one.

Mr. G is a better choice than Muse.

David Arnold was asked about this and avoided giving an answer. Which basicaly means he has no say whatsoever in who does the theme song.

I think I heard that David Arnold and Kenny G are working on an album together to be called Dave and the G-Man.
