Licenced to thrill

Lee Tamahori, director of the new James Bond movie is courting Morrissey to record the theme tune for the film to be released before Christmas 2002. Said Tamahori : "I was played a recording of 'Irish Blood, English Heart' and knew instantly that this was the theme we need. I will need to change some of the lyrics of course, but the atmosphere this tune has is entirely appropriate."

Morrissey was unavailable for commment, however a member of his entourage said "I don't think this is true - but then again Morrissey WAS using the classic James Bond theme before his concerts in 1999. I'm sure Morrissey would be honoured to record the theme. I guess you'll have to wait and see."

Artists who have recorded James Bond themes include Morrissey favourite Shirley Bassey, although Sheena Easton and A-Ha have too.

Yes, this is very likely to happen. I lie a lot.

The new bond movie is finished and the score/title track done.

I also here he's doing the score for the new Terminator movie. Pfft. Not bloody likely!
