The score is the best of the series. The way they use the two Pretenders songs throughout the film during the action sequences, is just incredible. Inspired mixing but also the Bond sing by a-Ha, absolute class. Love it when the synths kick jn. Takes the film onto another level. Seeing it in the cinema last weekend really heightens your appreciation for Barry’s work and the combination of electronic and big band influences.

[@thepatriotsrage661]

Beautiful!! Such an awesome soundtrack for an awesome movie, possibly the best Bond of all time. Dalton is supremely underrated as Bond, and for me; the best of all of them because he's closest to what Flemming wrote.

[@mp1314]

23:48 is just pure masterclass ... “stay where you are, now get down on your knees, hands behind your back.” “You’re professional, you do not kill without reason.” “Two of our men are dead, Koskov named you. Now why should I disobey my orders?” “I’m in the dark, as much as you. It’s a matter of trust. Who do you believe, koskov or me?” “If I trusted Koskov, we wouldn’t be talking. But as long as you’re alive, we’ll never find out, what he’s up to.” “Then I must die” Arguably the most powerful scene in the franchise between two classy, yet ruthless professionals.

[@smoothALOE]

If you look at the old sketches of the novelized character, he looks remarkably like him. Since he was a fan of the books and was classically trained, he knew how to bring out a side to the character that others were unwilling or unable to before. It’s a shame he only got two films. I would’ve loved to have seen more.

[@ricflair9717]

@Stefano Pavone Brosnan was the heir apparent, everyone really wanted him to begin with. The reason Dalton was chosen was because Brosnan was tied up with Remington Steele. Once Brosnan was available, the job was his.

[@ericdeforest3811]

@Stefano Pavone If Dalton had been able to make the 3rd Bond film, I think he would have vaulted in popularity more. He was a great Bond, and while I like Roger Moore (having grown up watching his films) Timmothy was a much more accurate representation of Flemming's Bond. It would have been cool to see more films with him. Plus, it really took 3 movies for Moore to really grow in popularity, in the role. Connery set a good standard. Brosnan would be a good Bond as well.

This was John Barry's last James Bond score, and he finished with one of his strongest soundtracks. I am not sure how he felt about adding electronic rhythm tracks to several of the action sequences, but it works well in the film. Glad that Barry bowed out on a high note with one of the best Bond films in the franchise. in my opinion, Dalton brought back the toughness of Bond that had been lost with Roger Moore, but without the excessive violence and lack of elegance characteristic of the Daniel Craig films. Dalton's "one liners" were perfectly delivered, fitting to the scene without being too gratuitous. Too bad his tenure was just two films.

Great score by John Barry. This is one of my favorite Bond films and scores. I love that Barry was experimenting with mixing drum machines and synth with the classic Bond orchestral sound. While this gave the score and the action scenes great sense of cool edginess, it has the nature of being a product of its time while also being foward - thinking. Plus I absolutely love that Barry retained this beautiful romantic nature in this score with the beautiful "If There was A Man" waltz. For me it actually deepened the relationship between Bond and Kara. It felt like he would've left the life of danger behind for her. But that's just me.

[@hudsony777]

Parts of it are really fascinating; all of them are good.

[@smoothALOE]

This is still one of my all-time favorite Bond films and one of the reasons is because John Barry delivered a great score. Out of the 11 scores he is credited for, this one has to rank in his Top 3, along with You Only Live Twice and Diamonds Are Forever. Just my opinion, of course. 16:06 to 18:06 is my favorite theme, by far. I like that you can hear the flutist breathing in between the long notes, too. It seems to add a certain human emotion to the playing of the music.

Outstanding soundtrack. John Barrys best Bond, in my opinion.

[@BarryAnderson]

The longest-running film, a franchise of all time and still going strong for James Bond. All the BOND films have something to offer musically and theatrically speaking and this one The Living Daylights - A 007 Symphony (John Barry - 1987) is one of my all-time favorites. I do appreciate how much time and work went into the musical score composing and theatrical script writing and with all the takes and revisions in preproduction then actual production followed up by post-editing production to pull it off with lots of team effort of all the talented crews coming from all walks of life really. My second favorite is "YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE" with Sean Connery as the original BOND. This film resonated with me because when it came out I was a student of Animation for Sheridan College located in Oakville Ont. Canada and at that time I had no idea that I would be hired with Film contracts to work and live a solid 10 years throughout Asia and eventually married my Asian Sweet Heart from Thailand and settled down on the tropical island of Phuket now retired from the Animation Business but still creating my own projects inside of my Garden Home. I love to listen to James Bond music at my near age of 70 years to jump up and down on my 2-meter wide trampoline most every day of my holistic life to listen to you guessed it.

Opus 15 de la filmographie 007, réalisé par John Glen et le premier de Timothy Dalton dans le rôle de James. Cette collaboration musicale pour l'agent secret et de John Barry est la onzième et sera aussi la dernière. Et cette fois, le compositeur se démarque de son écriture purement symphonique avec l'ajout d'utilisation de rythmiques électroniques. Mais l'on reconnaît facilement la signature du maître de par sa couleur orchestrale. Et puis, James Bond, c'est presque une affaire personnelle voire fusionnelle avec John Barry ! Ce dernier obtiendra le 'BMI Film Music Award' en 1988. Le générique interprété par A-ha et deux chansons interprétées par The Pretenders complète l'intégralité de la partie musicale. Très belle partie finale qui fait penser quelque peu à 'Robin and Marian'.
