Chris Cornell to Record Bond Movie Theme

Chris Cornell of the band Audioslave arrives at the 48th annual Grammy Awards in this Wednesday, Feb. 8, 2006 file photo, in Los Angeles. Cornell will record the theme song for the upcoming James Bond film, "Casino Royale." Cornell's song, "You Know My Name," will open the movie, which marks Daniel Craig's debut as agent 007. His "soulful and tough" music is a perfect complement to the film, producers said Thursday. "Casino Royale" opens in theaters Nov. 17. (AP Photo/Chris Carlson, FILE)

It's nice to see Cornell get props for his solo work (assuming this song will truly be a solo effort). Although pretty much ignored and misunderstood by Soundgarden loyalists and the general listening public, Euphoria Morning, Cornell's first and only solo attempt is a catchy, sad, thoroughly melodic piece of work. Congrats, Chris. Maybe this will get you thinking about another record.
I hope the song is good, I'm a big fan of Bond movie tunes. They set the tone for the movie, I think.
