While the new James Bond film Spectre contains theme music written by Sam Smith, the original favorite to compose the track was actually Radiohead. It turns out that those rumors were not unfounded, as the beloved rock crew actually wrote and recorded their own “Spectre” song.
Just in time for Christmas, the band shared this new track with a fanbase eagerly awaiting more information about the band’s new album. Read the band’s note, and stream the track, below:
Last year we were asked to write a theme tune for the Bond movie Spectre.
Yes we were. It didn’t work out, but became something of our own, which we love very much.
As the year closes we thought you might like to hear it.
Merry Christmas. May the force be with you.
