Such an interesting story. I'm glad you're immortalized with the other illustrious, select few who sang Bond movie theme songs...your voice keeps me coming back for more, Nancy
Hi Nancy, I hope all your ❤ loved ones are safe from the fires. In 1967, I bought the YOLT 45 record with LEE and you on the flip-side performing JACKSON…and I still own it! I excited to hear your stories of working with Billy Strange and the CREW on the changes to this cut of YOLT vs. the JOHN BARRY soundtrack cut. Thank you for sharing your talent with us all.

This is a timeless song. It was the moment any of Nancy’s versions were released. The song itself is one of my favorite passions… I mean that in finding new (to me) cover versions of this classic song… from vocal versions to instrumental versions from rock to punk to downtempo… This song is one of those songs which I always stop to listen to… And it all started with Nancy’s two versions. Although it really would have been cool if Frank Sinatra had just done a version for posterity. ❤
Nancy couldn't sing...she was a nepotism phenomena. John Barry had to piece her performance together because she couldn't even hit the notes - it was a nightmare session for all involved, including Nancy. The single version ended up being an over-processed mess. Lee Hazlewood made Nancy Sinatra a pop sensation with songs she could belt out with a country-music-style monotone. Bubblegum pop muzak recording is still very much alive today so that many less-than-talented folks can still have a hit song.
What rot. Nancy and Hazelwood achieved success over many years. Not even Sinatra would claim to be a top singer. She was chosen for the film ahead of far better vocalists. Her father repeatedly turned the producers down. Nepotism cannot sell millions of records.
One of the best Bond themes.
Beautiful song, so iconic
🌹Love this🎤
My Favorite James Bond Song❤Great Nancy Sinatra🎉
Her voice makes the song twice as nice.
Majestic and marvelous!
Thanks for this! 🫂
Love the single version. Lee was a genius.
The single "You only live twice" was one of my first Nancy's singles.
Great song, great story.
Cant wait!!!
Thank you for sharing this Nancy! ❤

🧡this song enchanting and timeless 🧡🎤
John Barry's film version is the ultimate take , far more elegant and evocative than the single version

Don't think of the danger or the stranger is gone.
