Paul Weller & Noel Gallagher working on potential Bond theme
Paul Weller and Noel Gallagher are reportedly working on a potential song for the new James Bond film. Weller revealed in a recent BBC interview that he's interested in doing a Bond theme and he's got some ideas that he's been working on. He told the BBC he has "half a song that me and Noel Gallagher worked on and I think it would be great for a Bond theme. There’s a bit of minor key going on. That would be an ambition definitely."
No announcements have been made about the new Bond film. Keep in mind that even if Weller and Gallagher were commissioned to write a theme there's no guarantee their collaboration would be accepted for the film. Just ask Radiohead -- the Oxford band famously wrote a lush and haunting track titled "Spectre" for the last Bond film, but it was rejected by producers who opted for a mainstream and cheesy Sam Smith song instead.
Paul Weller releases his new album A Kind Revolution tomorrow and heads to North America this autumn. Tickets for all the shows go on sale tomorrow.
