"Forever" written and sang by Eva Almer
Composed by Christian Wolf from Sweden,
It was rejected as the opening theme for sequel to the 2006 film Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace (2008) starring Daniel Craig in the role of Bond.
Instead, the collaborated "Another Way to Die" (Jack White of The White Stripes and Alicia Keys ) was chosen.
Nevertheless, it is now your opportunity to listen to the great vocals of Almer and the mesmerizing melody created by Wolf, and decide for yourself.

The video was created by me.

This video clip develpos the idea of the stories behind the cover art of vintage pulp (paperbacks)...what happened a moment before or after the picture was drawn.
James Bond was written by Ian Fleming during the 1950s - 1960s, the golden era of cheap paperbacks and Film Noir which to the reader/viewer to the realms of hard boiled detectives, voloptuous sleazy dames, mobsters, spies and so on and so forth. Our Bond escapes the confiment of his book-cover and runs around the library. But as the title suggests, he's soon caught and brought back to play his role on the cover Forever.
The James Bond series was maybe 'luckier' than other similar novels of the genre for it has not only survived the fall of the pulp era but has also grown to be a franchise for many decades.
