I get what you mean but I think the song deserves more recognition than that. I think the song will go down as one of the classics in the collection through the years...

But than that, it has a wonderful rhythm, it's very atmospheric, and Adele is a good singer, and British!

It's quite comparable to Diamonds are Forever in it's feeling and for me it's a great throwback.

Another Way To Die... a good track in itself but for me it is a Bond theme in nothing but name. Took me ages to warm to it
