They said: Honestly, if someone turned around and told you this was actually the track for the next Bond movie, you'd be hard pushed to not believe them... Aside from a few swear words that probably wouldn't fit the brief it has everything else you'd expect from a modern Bond movie, so no brainer for the category.

Newness: 5/5
Fit: 9/10
Song: 8/10
Total EN Score: 88%
Newness comment: Never heard of him, full marks!
Fit comment: Ha ha, this is a good fit. I mean, there's a section where the Bond producers could sue for the background riff. It's not quite as good as a couple of others, the distorted vocals at the end cost it slightly, but it's a great pick for this round
Song comment: Really like this, starts strong and the drop into the chorus is great. I don't love his voice, but it's a minor criticism. Overall a very strong song
Glad you liked it. Not too unlike Homer I'm no overly familiar with Bond movies (saw 2 Pierce Brosnan ones when I was a kid, the one with Sean Bean and the one with Teri Hatcher, but I barely remember them), but loving this category for a Walrus, some cracking tunes all around, making it into the top 5 for this category is an achievement in itself it seems.
