The sixth single released in 1981. It was the theme song for the 12th James Bond film of the same title. It reached number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 8 on the UK Singles Chart. It was also nominated for the 1982 Academy Award for Best Original Song.
The song was originally created with the image of Donna Summer or Dusty Springfield singing it, but the decision was made to have Sheena Easton, who was having a big hit at the time with "Morning Train (9 to 5)," recommended by the film production studio UA.
