I have finally compiled the Spotify playlist featuring one slightly lesser-known instrumental track (hence the name “Unsung Bond” – geddit?) from each EON Bond film, which you can listen to here<\/a> (total playing time 1:14:22). Thanks to Omega for his help in compiling this list. I have tried to pick a track that is either fairly well-known or which I feel embodies the film it comes from and associated soundtrack (eg a romantic theme for OHMSS, an Oriental-sounding one for TMWTGG etc.) Some films were more difficult than others, as there wasn’t really a standout track. I won’t name names, for fear of influencing the vote, but I think it will be apparent which ones I’m talking about when you listen to the playlist. Also, I have tried not to pick tracks that are simply instrumental versions of the main theme or secondary themes (We Have All The Time In The World, Surrender<\/span> etc), though it was not always possible to avoid them altogether, as they tend to be woven throughout the score as leitmotifs. In the case of Casino Royale<\/span> especially, I picked The Switch<\/span> precisely because it was one of several tracks that very subtly incorporated the James Bond Theme, as I felt that this slow build towards its final unveiling at the very end of the film was the distinguishing feature of that particular soundtrack.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
