That's more like it, Brian. 007, huzzah!
Posted by: Sean at September 5, 2006 10:28 PMWow, Brian!
Thanks for playing the Blue Stingrays.
You rock!
Brian, I've been a Coverville fan since Episode 169; it's my favorite podcast and I have to say, this now is my favorite episode. Keep up the good work! Greetings from Mexico. Covers are forever ;)

has anyone else ever seen the lyrics to "Casino Royale"? I saw them once on a piano roll and never again.
Here's what I remember from the middle eight:
The formula is safe with old Double o Seven
He's got a redhed in his arms
Though he's a lover, when you're in trouble
Have no fear
Look who's here
JAAAAAAAAAAMES
BONNNNNNNNNNND
They've got us on the run
With guns
And knives
(Ya da da da daaah, da da daaaah)
We're fighting for our lives!
(Ya da daaah, da da daaaaah)
Have no fear, Bond is here!
If you want another good one, check out The Art of Noise's 'Bond' on 'Below The Waste'.
