Over the years, the theme songs for the James Bond films have become almost as iconic as 007 himself. Not only are they expected to be annual Grammy Awards contenders, but they are also huge boosts to the careers of the artists that are lucky enough to produce them.
So far, no knows who is responsible for the theme song for the upcoming "Spectre." However, Showbiz411.com has a pretty good idea.
"I can tell you exclusively that British pop star Ellie Goulding has a song registered with BMI Music called 'Spy.' Is it the theme from 'Spectre,' the new James Bond movie? All signs indicate yes.
"Goulding posted a picture to Instagram yesterday shower her leaving Abbey Road studios, with the message 'That's a wrap.'
"On July 9th she Tweeted, "Live and let die.'"
Other popular contemporary artists such as Sam Smith have been rumored to be the voices behind 007's new jam. However, Goulding's chances have skyrocketed in recent weeks. If true, she would join the likes of Shirley Bassey, Adele, Carly Simon, Nancy Sinatra, Paul McCartney and John Barry as James Bond music suppliers.
To date, Goulding only has two albums, the last of which was released back in 2012. Nabbing this job would prove to a breakout opportunity for the 28-year-old musician.
"Spectre," star Daniel Craig's fourth turn as the International Man of Mystery and director Sam Mendes' second time behind the camera, will hit theaters on November 6.
