Good to see Queen at No. 3 for Bohemian Rapsody. But putting all those other records together like that and understanding that they are owned by a great deal of the population... I mean... Christ! Psychotic springs instantly to mind.

Regards.

Just read this article in the news:

"

Elton John trashes new Bond theme

Elton John has branded Madonna's single, "Die Another Day" the worst Bond theme ever, reports London's Sun.

John said movie bosses on the Pierce Brosnan blockbuster would have been better off asking Shirley Bassey, or Sir Elton himself to record a song instead.

"It hasn't got a tune," John said. "James Bond themes are usually very camp and this one's different. It is the worst Bond tune of all time."

"

Now, I tend to agree with the fellow (though the track is cool and trippy, it definitely doesn't have the cliche lines and general vibe of a Bond theme), but who the flippin' fuck does EJ think he is? And to offer such a humble replacement. This man's arrogance is as amazing as his songs are crap. Why does he have to say anything about Bond Themes...to the press no less? He has absolutely no authority on the subject.

Maybe he would do better... seeing as all his shit is "camp."

Made me hate'im more. Dumbass...

You can almost hear the Simpsons' Comic Store Owner character saying it.

Elton John has every right to slate a bond theme. He is one of the british greats you know.
