Bono does Bond, perhaps
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver March 15th, 2006

Reports suggest that U2 could record the next James Bond theme, for the upcoming Daniel Craig debut Casino Royale. With cheese?

Producer Barbara Broccoli has said that the multi-award-winning Irish outfit are among those being considered:

"David Arnold will be composing the soundtrack but we have not yet chosen who is doing the song. I think U2 are great. Bono actually wrote the song for GoldenEye but Tina Turner performed it."

Do you think David Arnold's face looks like a Nerf Ball, a la his Hey! cartoon namesake? I reckon it does, y'know. Nerf Balls are crap, anyway - gimme a Mitre Delta and I'm happy as Larry... Mullins.

DiScuss: Come on, surely they can do better than U2? What about Dizzee Rascal? Or The Pussycat Dolls? COME ON...
