a-ha - The Living Daylights (Album Version)

The 1988 album version of a-ha's 007 theme. Taken from 'Stay on These Roads' and edited to synchronise, as well as possible, with the original video.
I'm also a hobbyist songwriter, based on YT at: / @chinaborder

[@Tabbylover55]

Timothy Dalton was a good Bond, and this song is one of the best Bond themes ever. Both very underrated, and deserved so much more recognition at the time.

[@guatagel2454]

In Goldeneye the main theme is a poor copy of Living daylight.

[@FakedStick]

best 007, people hated it for its pure actions, and today they liked new 007 because of the actions. This movie is too ahead its time.

[@sandrawright2892]

The best James Bond song. Absolutely brilliant💖💜

[@rhagedorn]

Morten Harket has one of the most amazing voices I've ever heard. His vocal range is every bit as impressive as Freddie Mercury's was. Not only that but he's good enough looking to play James Bond himself.

[@rhagedorn]

+Tyler Rampersaud I wasn't a Moore fan either. He was such a letdown after Sean Connery.

[@rhagedorn]

+Tyler Rampersaud I agree although I actually thought Connery was in his 60s too when he made Never Say Never Again but he was only 53.

[@rhagedorn]

+Tyler Rampersaud According to Wikipedia he retired after A View to a Kill at 58. He was Bond for 12 years, longer than all the others. He just looked like he was well into his 60s. He's 89 now.

[@matushorvath3767]

I knew there was a band named A-ha. Their signature song, "Take on Me," resonated with me during childhood. I'm 37, and while listening to random songs in the middle of the night, I heard "Crying in the Rain". I got instantly hooked. It's an amazing journey of discovering that these guys wrote a HEAP of brilliant songs. This is my top favorite, along with "Stay on These Roads."

[@titanx8167]

[@nelson2k]

This was one of the best bond movies... too bad people didn't appreciate Dalton

[@ivanivez7456]
