This was my our wedding dance song. I was her kidney donor in March 2003, and we got married in March 2006. She died in February 2022-three days before Valentine's Day. Always love her, and cherish the memories.

The song starts off with the main melody, nice enough but it keeps on building on that melody, it really explodes. A great song and the perfect voice. Doesn't get better than this we are in 2024
Was a GREAT year. Just look at what albums/films were released that year alone. If you remember that year, then you know there is such a thing as "golden ages".....and we are definitely not in one now.😢
@@I_Fight_Instacart I remember that year we'll, and while my comment wasn't meant to be taken literally, I'm still coming up with new gems I didn't know about til now.
my favorite of all bond themes...but.this song gives me goosebumps when the song is about to finish...the sound of the trumpets with the touch of james bond music...its a masterpiece!!
First one I saw also. My childhood friend Dennis introduced me to Bond as well as foreign sports cars (I'd only cared about Trans Ams, Mustangs, etc. before that). His parents had a Porsche 924 when they were new and no one thought of them as duds yet. I Googled him a few years back and discovered that he'd died young, too (aged 37).
When music was away better than what we have today! Such a big difference. Unfortunately music made a wrong a turn at some point and became garbage! Maybe with a very few exceptions! But nothing compares the music played in the 70s and 80s.
It was my generation unfortunately, 70s and 80s, it was us who faced the crack era and gang wars and wrote about what we saw, didn’t use to glorify it but was just “keeping it real” and unpolished so others wouldn’t follow, I think all the money in drugs out there got everyone in hood mentality which is “even if you sell to your family, make that dollar”…in old rap songs the dealers and crooks always went to jail or worst, that was the outcome, my cousin had 3 sons and buried them all before they saw 17 cause like him they were street, my boys graduated college and high school atleast cause despite me and my cousin living together for 12 years and his boys and my boys were around us both a lot, my kids saw me go to work everyday while his saw him sale dope and hangout on sets, all his boys died on various sets.
I did too. Thanks to my older brothers for always having the radio on or records playing from the time I was born. I still love all of those great songs. ♥
This song always reminds me when the 1977 denver broncos finally went to the super bowl for the first time! This song was always an introduction to every news about that broncos team! What a year, now if I can Bragg a lil about myself for a second! This song was playing in my mind when I at 10 years old in 1977 was standing on the champions box for winning the 1977 southern colorado youth Olympics! I still have my medal and 6ft. Trophy that say 1977 colorado Olympic champion! Yes, I'm kind of proud of that moment! It was also the year my folks divorced and I thought that if I win thus thing I can bring them back together? Well hopes and dreams were crushed, but fuck it, at least on that day in august of 1977 my world smiled and I brought home a champion! Myself!
Nobody does it better Makes me feel sad for the rest Nobody does it half as good as you Baby, you're the best I wasn't lookin' but somehow you found me I tried to hide from your love light But like heaven above me The spy who loved me Is keepin' all my secrets safe tonight And nobody does it better Though sometimes I wish someone could Nobody does it quite the way you do Why'd you have to be so good? The way that you hold me Whenever you hold me There's some kind of magic inside you That keeps me from runnin' But just keep it comin' How'd you learn to do the things you do? And nobody does it better Makes me feel sad for the rest Nobody does it half as good as you Baby, baby Darlin', you're the best Baby, you're the best Baby, you're the best Sweet baby, you're the best Darlin', you're the best Darlin', you're the best Sweet baby, you're the best Baby, you're the best Sweet baby
The drum fill @3:05 by Steve Gadd is one of the greatest drum fills of all time! This song is the best James Bond tune for me, that with the disco vibes in Moonraker.
I haven't seen any james bond movies yet, and found this music by pure accident. This song is so god damn beautiful it literally makes me cry every time i listen to it, guess now i have to watch all james bond movies right now
I was going to say how much I especially love the closing of the song from 2:32 onwards, and going by the high point of the 'most replayed' indicator on the time bar, I'm clearly not alone! 😅 Carly's dreamy backing vocals together with the string and brass accompaniments definitely give it that quintessential Bond sound. Good stuff.
This song came out when I was about 15 and it was one of my top ten favourite songs from that year. I still love it, and have always found myself smitten by Carly's voice.
I still am the best and as much as las Vegas wants to forget it ever happened....say what u want , there was a lot of times that it took much more then just money too get me home or out of trouble that particular day it' was astounding and it will never be duplicated again.......HEART ❤❤❤
I remember hearing this song as a small kid at the end of the James Bond movie,I'll always love hearing it again and again.

As a woman that cannot stand Bond movies.! I love this song. And 'Live and let die'l Thank you Paul for what I believe is the most iconic.
Congratulations.
Best Bond song ever.
Agree 100%
❤❤❤❤
The original. Bond theme song 🎵 was awesome too❤
No, the goat of James Bond songs is You only live twice, written by John Barry.
Totally agree , With you , best by miles .
Definitely one of the best Bond theme songs.
THE Best Bond theme song for sure.
Well said well bloody said for real
It's my favourite Bond theme song.
The second best, to be exact.
One of the best songs in the universe, period.
You might very well be right!
She sings this song so well. Nobody could ever sing it better.
Right.
She sings actually every song so well. What about Let the river run?
Nobody could DO it better!
I saw what you did there
❤JE NE CONNAIT PAS MAIS JOLIE VOIX❤
One of the best songs ever made
The first Bond film I saw at the cinema, and one of the best theme songs.
I saw Diamonds are forever with my parents. My mother would sing that song for weeks. She loved 007 and diamonds.
1977: what a wonderfull year! The music,the way of living,the style,the peacefull days...and that was the year that my sweetheart Lady was born!
Those days then!!!!!!

Should have won an oscar for best song!

It lost to " You Light Up My Life " which admittedly was a big song back then. But I'd vote for Carly Simon.
One of the best 007 movies
INDEED

It’s true🎉

50s and 60s weren't too bad either,but 60s - 80s was the best.

Nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it half as good as you
Baby, you're the best
I wasn't lookin' but somehow you found me
I tried to hide from your love light
But like heaven above me
The spy who loved me
Is keepin' all my secrets safe tonight
And nobody does it better
Though sometimes I wish someone could
Nobody does it quite the way you do
Why'd you have to be so good?
The way that you hold me
Whenever you hold me
There's some kind of magic inside you
That keeps me from runnin'
But just keep it comin'
How'd you learn to do the things you do?
And nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it half as good as you
Baby, baby
Darlin', you're the best
Baby, you're the best
Baby, you're the best
Sweet baby, you're the best
Darlin', you're the best
Darlin', you're the best
Sweet baby, you're the best
Baby, you're the best
Sweet baby
I didn't know this song and while listening to it, I had to hold back my tears.
Known it quite a while, makes me cry every time
Shit, im not alone xD
No wonder it was Carly's biggest hit - and still is. With her vocal, and a composer like Marvin Hamlisch backing it up....
The lyrics are by Carol Bayer Sager, wife of Burt Baccarach.
The drum fill @3:05 by Steve Gadd is one of the greatest drum fills of all time! This song is the best James Bond tune for me, that with the disco vibes in Moonraker.

she turned 80 this year...jesus lies go on fast

Saw an interview with Carly ... she was in love with this song the minute she heard it.
Reminds me of watching a bond movie with my parents and brothers. I liked the song immediately. i was only 10 or 11. im 41 now ❤❤❤
My all time favorite Bond Movie.. Roger Moore!
I dedicate this song to my wife of seventy years who patiently waited for me after I found that penny in my vest that was dated 1977. 😢 🎉
Somewhere in Time ...
Feeling human. Thank you again for being honest
This studio version has been removed from Spotify. I wonder why?
This song came out when I was about 15 and it was one of my top ten favourite songs from that year. I still love it, and have always found myself smitten by Carly's voice.

This song always reminds me of when I was in my early 20's, dating a woman that was 8 years my senior.
1976 the Summer that never ended.1977 Bond and Star Wars.
1977 best year of my life..such a good year.
Great song ideal for the film (THE SPY WHO LOVE ME)❤👍✌🌈👍
Yeah, the best Bond song, she even sung it pitch perfect live.
Great singer and Song !!!! ❤
