Odd couple alert: Jack White, of the grunge happy The White Stripes, and R&B recording artist Alicia Keys collaborated on this, the highly anticipated theme tune to the newest and most ambiguously named Bond film, Quantum of Solace (due out in November). White recently made waves by admonishing the use of his song in a Coke Zero ad and denouncing any implied affiliation between himself and the product. Anticipation for the song had escalated in recent months after very public reports surfaced that troubled singer Amy Winehouse had been hired to write and record a theme, but ultimately was unable to deliver on account of what we'll simply call "personal issues." White was then hired as her replacement.Note: This is a radio rip so you'll probably notice some choice sound effects and inane lead-out banter. But I still think you get the idea.
