This is my favorite version of "A View To A Kill" ! I love how Simon starts singing it slow & it builds to a crescendo... Incredible ! John Barry & Duran Duran rule .... !

It is amazing how Simon has retained his voice over the decades. I think that is rare.

John Taylor is looking very pleasing to the eye as well....

[@BionicRusty]

As far as I’m concerned, Simon has a an absolute killer voice, John is a god-like bassist, Roger can hit skin like a demon and, Nick is a Grand Master of the keys. It’s just such a shame that Andy is retired but I fully respect that. Happy Days, boys ❤️ The 80’s were feckin banging. 🙏❤️🤍💙

This is one of Simon's most haunting, powerful, dynamic and evocative lyrics. His delivery here is lovely. The chord changes they came up with in collaboration with John Barry are mysterious and exciting. A View To A Kill is one of the most energetic and stimulating Bond title tracks. The arrangement is sonicly delicious too ....
