Hooverphonic's version of the Kinks' This Strange Effect pretty much transforms a totally unrelated song into a cousin of the Bond theme.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mvshx35l364

RIP John Barry.

Ah speaking of Suede, I always thought "animal nitrate" had a little bit of Bond to it (OK, only the first part of the guitar solo but still !).And also "She", thinking of it.
