Page "Nancy Sinatra" Paragraph 9
from
Wikipedia
In 1967 she recorded the theme song for the James Bond film You Only Live Twice.
In the liner notes of the CD reissue of her 1966 album, Nancy In London, Sinatra states that she was " scared to death " of recording the song, and asked the songwriters: " Are you sure you don't want Shirley Bassey?
" There are two versions of the Bond theme.
The first is the lushly orchestrated track featured during the opening and closing credits of the film.
The second – and more guitar-heavy — version appeared on the double A-sided single with " Jackson ", though the Bond theme stalled at # 44 on the Billboard Hot 100.
