A James Bond theme song has been hailed as "better than the movie it was made for" by movie fans. The long-running series has enlisted the likes of Adele , Paul McCartney, and Shirley Bassey to lead the soundtrack efforts over the last 60 years, but one music group has been singled out as improving the film they were attached to. Their work on the Roger Moore -starring film came about when the bassist asked producer Albert Broccoli why nobody "decent" had written music for the Bond franchise.
